Im kinda new to the game as well. Im still learning how things work, weapons, bonuses to stuff, ranges, ECM etc, so i have a bit before I go PK'ing. I have a few questions too which I would not mind having answered :)

1. What do people refer to as "warp spamming." I mean, spamming is hard with right clic, follow down to planets, hit warp to...is there some other way you can bind keys to warp to a preset target or safe spot fast and keep repeating it until a warp window opens up?

2. Someone earlier was saying its insanley hard to pod someone in low sec but not in null sec. What makes it hard to pod people?

3. What is the best way to prevent being podded if you see your ship is going down?

4. If you set autodestruct and eject, do you have enough time to warp anywhere before they lock on to you and scramble you?

Much appreciated!

1. You can set up your overview to include all that stuff in the drop down list. With these things in your overview, you can click on one, giving you myriad options at the top of your overview, one of which is "Warp to." Assuming you're warp scrambled, you won't be able to warp. However, spamming the warp button makes it so that, when your ship blows up, your pod will instantly warp away.

2. In 0.0, warp bubbles can be used. If your ship blows up in one of these bubbles, you won't be able to escape by spamming the "Warp to" button. This problem doesn't exist in lowsec.

3. Assuming you're in lowsec or in 0.0 but not caught in a bubble, the warp spamming works wonders. If caught in a bubble, hope that your side has plenty of ships left, so that your pod can slowly works its way out of the bubble before someone decides to get an easy kill.

4. I've never ejected from a ship in combat, so I can't respond to this (though I'm pretty sure self-destruct cancels when you eject).

Edit: Yes, I have still lost pods, mainly from sheer stupidity. My most recent loss, the station I was trying to warp to was 50km away from me
