Hello, I am a new player and need to pick up a skill book in a 0.4 system. I don't want to lose my Probe or worse get podded so how much would protection from Ryddijorn to Ragnarg cost?
Thank you in advance

if your in a frigate you wont die, 0.4 isnt THAT dangerous :)
just dont go afk and if someone starts locking you warp out, but its unlikely in a frigate

I heard people are brutal to noobs in this game. That is why I am asking for protection.

thy aren't. if you're in a non-npc corp thy'll leave you alone.
and if anybody wants you to kill in 0.4 he will probably need
tanked bs...well tanked bs.

Get a shuttle. Cheap if you lose it, probably faster than your probe anyway. If you get podded, I am sure your clone is not that expensive.

0.4 to 0.1 can be brutal to everyone, its just that noobs often don't know the tricks to avoid death.
1. Check you map for ships & pods destroyed in the last hour
2. If there are none you'll most likely be fine
3. If you jump in & there are pirates at the gate hurry up & dock & dont try to come out till the leave

no offence but not great advise, a long range sniper will kill anything possible that comes to the gate. They are not concerned with flagging or tanking so for them there will be no reason not to.

Beleive me, its not that bad :)
A lot of people leave the noobs alone, precisely because they are noobs. EVE is one of the nicest communitys out there.
As a long term resident of unsecure space I can asure you your 99.9% safe, unless you stumble into a massive gate gank
Convo me in game if you want any help to do with eve or eant to ask any Qs...im bored :)

I periodically go down to 0.1-0.4 space to go rat hunting, and often have to go through it for courier missions. Nobody bothers me, and I just keep myself alert incase somebody does start locking me (hasn't happened yet). Most people are pretty nice about it though.
And just a side note, most people won't attack unless there's something in it for them. Popping a probe is too easy, and since its a probe (and I'm assuming empty aside from the skillpack), you won't have anything valuable on board, so there isn't really a reason to shoot at you. I'd just go for it, try to fly in and out pretty quickly.

Does anybody else smell an alt trying to lure a battle-loaded BS into a trap??

Like someone said earlier in this thread, buy a shuttle.
They cost between 5-10k isk so they are alot cheaper than ur probe IF u happen to run into someone that shoots u, also the shuttle is the ship that enters warp the fastest (only a pod enters faster).
While beign in a shuttle I can with almost 100% certainty say that u will be safe if ur just going from one place to another.
If this doesn't help, let me know ingame and I will get u sorted out 
Nothing p1sses me off more then some id1ot pirate ganking a new player and then gloats about his uber kill

The thought has prolly crossed all our minds, but if it isn't one then I for one would be glad to lend a hand when needed

Velsharoon convinced me it was safe and sure enough I got my skill without incident. I guess that part of 0.4 space is safe. Also to the guy who said I'm an alt: I'm actually a real live noob. Feel free to poke me but don't feed me.
