Kessiaan Minmatar Final Agony	Posted - 2010.01.29 20:00:00 - [17] Edited by: Kessiaan on 29/01/2010 20:00:08 I went to 0.0 thinking it would be this awesome pvp experience. My new friends' idea of pvp was forming 200+ man BS/capital gangs, sitting on a gate for 5 hours, and when another fleet showed up, following the FC calls and seeing who ran out of ships first. I got bored and went back to lowsec. The End

Fallen 187	Posted - 2010.01.29 20:26:00 - [21] Originally by: Nooma K'Larr forgot to upgrade my clone and got podded. lost a mess of skill points. I had a friend who had just gotten his jump clone. He jumped into it and started traveling down to 0.0, in a hulk no less, lost the ship and got pod killed shortly there after. He tried again (he didn't update his clone), in a Brutix, lost his ship and was pod killed there shortly after. He tried again (he didn't update his clone again), in a shuttle, lost his ship and was pod killed shortly there after. He had lost a total of almost 2 million skill points because of that episode. His excuse? And I quote, "I was in my jump clone, I though my skill points were protected in my main clone!" I lol'd in RL till I urinated my pants
Demolishar	Posted - 2010.01.29 20:39:00 - [22] Not starting to play 6 years earlier than I did... And if I lost skillpoints cause of being podded I would quit tbh.

This, however it was polytextiles. I did it twice too, the second time was an accident, the market filter didn't filter out low sec systems... I logged on instantly after downtime and made it.

Aversin Gallente Alcatraz Inc. Tactical Narcotics Team	Posted - 2010.01.29 21:19:00 - [26] When I got my first cruiser (vexor) it took me almost a week of mining in my frigate and the first thing I did was travel 4 jumps into low sec to get the mediun turret skill because it was 2 jumps closer than high sec. I lost my completely unfitted vexor to a small pirate gate camp (before WTZ). Curse you Zarquon Beeblebrox :( Originally by: Razner Cerizo They will never quit.

Istvaan Shogaatsu Caldari Guiding Hand Social Club	Posted - 2010.01.29 21:25:00 - [27] I traded a freshly stolen Wyvern to a gentleman named Morris Falter, for 1.5 billion ISK, expecting further payment. The payment did not materialize. This error was made because I became excited - an error I do not intend to repeat.

I trained for FALCON. I hoped this game would actually get more fun as the years went by. It's less fun, for those of you that don't know. Please bring back the industry profession.
Furb Killer Gallente	Posted - 2010.01.29 22:05:00 - [30] I dropped bubble in one of my first times in dictor. Then i was in my own bubble, didnt pay enough attention to gate rats firing on me, and when i decided it was time to leave it was too late and i got killed by my own bubble + gate rats. So there i got both killmail and lossmail for my own ship.

Jinx Barker Caldari GFB Scientific	Posted - 2010.01.29 22:31:00 - [31] Edited by: Jinx Barker on 29/01/2010 22:31:29 Leaving EVE unattended for a while, taking out the trash. Come back to a pod, and Concord Mail, which stated that my faction fitted Rattlesnake was toast. It was a number of years ago, at that count it was about 7 billion ISK worth of mods, including the ship. Apparently my dear partner decided to see what, and I quote: "this EVE thing is all about," and, to my response of "WTF did you do?" was: *"Its a stupid game, and you must not be very good at it, I tried to shoot a guy in that special super-duper ship you talked about* and I got killed right away!"** So, lesson learned, do not leave EVE client unattended with my love around, just in case another try might be in the pipeline. Edit: Obviously the incident took place in High Sec.
Lakshmii Caldari Korona Radiata	Posted - 2010.01.29 22:44:00 - [32] Oooh boy, this last week was my worst ever. I was inflicted with a terrible flu since Sunday, so I thought it would be a good time to rest and play EVE to heal. In my attempt to offload a rigged Marauder (about 1.075 billion ISK in value), someone managed to pulled off one of those trade window scams on me. I got 1.075 million ISK for it. The very next day, I was scanning stuff down in a lonely system to take my mind off the loss. After a couple nice radar sites, I discovered a pristine wormhole. In the process of switching to my sleeper-killing ship, however, my ~50 million ISK scanning ship (fitted with Sisters equipment), was destroyed by some dude in a Proteus. A worthy death, at least. A little groggy, disappointed and preoccupied, I went into the wormhole with the sleeper-killer without thinking. After jumping around a little bit making safe spots, I realized I hadn't bookmarked the wormhole to get back out. I'm still stuck in there, pricey implants and all. I guess I'll use the time I spend in there skill training or something!

MrBinary Minmatar Binary Systems	Posted - 2010.01.29 23:03:00 - [35] Ratting in 0.0 with my Tempest back when Scouts and Arbalest were the top dogs. Fully fitted with very respectable gear. Wife in full agro for the last 20 minites about who knows what...I think it had something to do with dinner. So after I kill the last bs and scoop the loot, I... in my now wife induced frazzled state, warp to my "safe" spot...forget to hit my cloak, and head off to appease the wife. After about 10 mins, I hear the familiar sounds of trouble. I dart to the computer room, further agro from Mrs.B ensues and to make matters even more comical I see my Tempest fully locked down and being curb stomped. Three rival alliance bs and two fast moving frigs. I sent my drones after the frigs and quickly tried to throw everything I had at a Raven, but I was way too far neck deep in the ****e! Well deserved smack down. Poof! Then they podded me...then more agro from the wife for, "spending more time with that game than me!" Did I mention she hates this game?

Iesiama Nobalte Chinese ISK Farmers	Posted - 2010.01.29 23:15:00 - [36] I left the computer to open the door for my boyfriend, while I was camping a gate in BWF with my merlin. The cops that brought him there confiscated all my computers and my boyfriend was arrested for running the worlds largest torrent site, ended up convicted and fined $5 million. The next day, Mercenary Coalition invaded my alliance. Oh, and I lost my merlin. Post with your main or STFU
Echo Vector Gallente Odyssey SEC	Posted - 2010.01.29 23:43:00 - [37] Joined my first corp after being a hard core care bear for almost 2 years. Corp was located in Dysa, in Derelik region. I loaded up my T2 fitted and rigged Hulk with all of my researched BPOs and most of my T2 gear, and the rest of the space with Blue Ice, and headed to Dysa from Cistuvaert, a Gallente noob starting spot. Everything was fine until I jumped blindly into Abha system in Derelik region, where I more or less ****d stupid and silly by a pirate who hit the jackpot that day. A billion isk in assets shot right in the rear end, I was bound and determined to make my first steps into low-sec work, and so I podded myself into Dysa to get a better look around and evaluate my position. I located a replacement Hulk and mods a few jumps away, and set off to get myself righted and into business. I made it back to Dysa with the new Hulk, and set out mining stuff I'd never seen with my Hi-sec carebear eyes before, and had a grand time for about 10 minutes until the pirates came along and blew that one up. What can I say, I learn slow. I ended up living there in Dysa and Mahti for 6 months or so, and learned how to NOT get killed every 15 minutes, so in the end it was worth the pain of learning, but that first day, losses of over 1.5 billions, was pretty epic fail.

Batolemaeus Caldari Free-Space-Ranger Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2010.01.30 02:40:00 - [47] Edited by: Batolemaeus on 30/01/2010 02:40:54 Now that i had enough time during boring pos siege.. I was terminally bored once, so i played around with some combat guardian fit. I've specialized in flying those things but never really killed people with them. So i went roaming around, flying through Pure Blind. It was largely empty. I had a fight on the gate to empire in ec-, which i won (killed a ceptor, reds deaggressed and jumped) Then, i hit a gatecamp with ~10 people. I reaproached to test their dps, but it was a bit too much, so i jumped. Apparently one of their rifter pilots was smarter than his mates and he hadn't aggressed, so he jumped after me. He managed to tackle my alt, so i killed him. As i was retracting my drones, local spiked, so i immediately squadwarped out. Sadly i had selected a planet instead of a gate, so to my surprise i landed on a planet (doh!). Of course a ceptor landed on top of me, so i aligned out and killed him too. Just as he popped, his gang landed on me and got a lucky scram on my main. The fight ended after i had put a curse into structure (lucky guy got one mwd cycle off) and had just shot a vaga down to armor as the domi got a jam on my alt. It kind of went downhill from there.. Battlestats Just because i warped to the wrong celestial. ---------------------------------------------- Originally by: CCP Prism X In New Eden, EVE wins you.
Sphit Ker	Posted - 2010.01.30 02:53:00 - [48] I bugged my corp the **** out to get a Maller. Upon licking boots to mirror shine, I got one that I immediately accidentally trashed instead of assembling. The fun started when they accepted to buy another one for me that was some jumps out. I figured out IÆd use my fully cargo expanded Bestower to haul it back home through low-sec. ItÆs quicker that way? ... and thatÆs all I have to say about that. IÆm not even gonna make excuses over that. Im just a plain tard sometimes. The following statement is not my signature. The preceding statement is my signature.

CCP Manifest C C P	Posted - 2010.01.31 14:28:00 - [67] Edited by: CCP Manifest on 31/01/2010 14:30:19 My worst was also, unsurprisingly, my first "PvP" experience. The time had come. Time to man up. Time to put something on the line. Time to figure out what stern stuff I was made of. At that particular point in my EVE career, "stern stuff" wasn't much, ammounting to just enough courage to seek out a defenseless miner with my severely underdeveloped sense of honor and preying on them mercilessly (until someone showed up--at which point I'd warp the heck outta there). I dusted off my favorite ship at the time--I believe it was a Punisher--and rechristened it as the Hubris III before undocking. t was packed to the gills (I'd filled EVERY SLOT!) with modules I'd gotten from missions. There was no regard for tactical fitting. No need to adhere to the so-called natural "bonuses" of the vessel. This was the Hubris III people! (Hubris I and II were imagined prototypes) I had some time on my hands so I flew around a bit, eventually and miraculously making it deep into 0.0 unharmed. That first "low sec" warning was a real pulse-pounder. It took me several minutes to decide jump beyond it. After going through a dozen or so systems and probably 50 belts, I finally found my prey. Tasty. Bzzzt bzzzzt. Bzzzt bzzzzt. The mining lasers so rythmically regular. So soothing. Their pilot alluringly vulnerable. Approach. Our ships collided. He didn't react. Must be AFK! I type in local. "Hello?" Bzzzt bzzzzt. I grew bolder, establishing a lock. Bzzzt bzzzzt. I check my weapons. Everything looks like it is loaded properly. Flip on my Civvy shields. (Yeah you heard that right) Bzzzt bzzzzt. "SURRENDER OR IT'S ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!" was the warning I issued IN CAPS for emphasis from my pod aboard the Hubris III. The reply was patient and unexpected. Bzzzt bzzzzt. DONKEY KONG ensued. Well, sorta. The shields on the Hulk I was facing moved maybe 1-2% thanks to my inability to understand range, ammo type, resistances etc. Being enamored with EVE's graphics, I had already trained my camera on my victim in anticipation of seeing the explosion of my first kill. Bzzzt bzzzzt. Bzzzt bzzzzt. After about ten seconds, the Hulk pilot actually oriented his ship towards me, as if formally addressing me. A reply came through in local. What are you doing? "Killing you, that's what!" (Oooh yeah. Good line Manifest!) Bzzzt bzzzzt. Bzzzt bzzzzt. ...And then five drones popped out and headed towards me. Now, I'm not sure if everyone reacts the same way I did the first time they have drones trained on them. Well, I hadn't ever used a drone, so these little, fast moving icons were perplexing, and, frankly, horrifying when I saw what they were doing to my shields. I freaked right the junk out. I experienced the full paralysis of noob PvP combat--searching for the "escape button" but then realizing I still needed to align, and that something to align to was several seconds away from being clicked thanks to the way I'd set up my overview. Some quick, frantic calculations versus the rate my shields were going down and I was frozen in time. Soon after I got my explosion. Hubris III down for the count. Never seen a pod before, but it sure looked fragile. Bzzzt bzzzzt. Bzzzt bzzzzt. Learned your lesson? came over local chat. "Yeah, my bad." (Not quite the epic one-liner Manifest...) Not coming back? "Nope. Have a nice day. I'll be going back to my station now." Fly safer. Bzzzt bzzzzt. Bzzzt bzzzzt. --- Second worst EVE Blunder? As Obama was taking the podium during the inauguration, I was in-warp to a lvl 4 in my prized Abaddon. Howeverlonglater, when I remembered I had been playing EVE, I returned to my laptop and my pod, an instant reminder that if you are going to tank a mission with the sound off, you should at least turn on your armor hardeners. Up until that point, I thought that politics and EVE mixed well. I guess I'm doing it wrong. --CCP Manifest--

But they did take the CCP website code (the HTML part) and modify it to do something else. Should have used the word phishing again in my last sentence, is that correct? Yes I did unwittingly give them my password, but I doubt I was the only one to fall for this. I just hope this is not an accepted or intended game play mechanic.

I just wiffed and wiffed (knew tracking would be an issue once he got close, but while still 10s of k away?)

Foraven Gallente	Posted - 2010.02.02 05:59:00 - [103] I did quite a few blunders just today. First i went to a wormhole with my scanning ship, but was so distracted i left a few windows open and never seen some other frigate was nearby. Not long afterward i got targeted and drones made short work of me. To add insult to injury, i had drones myself and did not even launch them. A bit later i went into a plexe with some friends, but got careless and flown right through the npcs with my catalyst expecting to kill them off easily. Got blown up and lost rigs and a few of the modules. And last, i almost repeated the exploit with my hyperion in a level 4 mission with my corp mates. A new spawn appeared and i got all aggro, but was overconfident and stayed to fight. I made it out with my last inch of armor. I believe i made more blunders in a single day than i did in the last few months.

CCP Fallout	Posted - 2010.02.03 18:16:00 - [126] Podkilled within two hours of the creation of a new account back in 08 after I first started working here while autopiloting to Jita to see how successful the new lag fixes were. Wrangler and Navigator teased me. A lot. :D Fallout Associate Community Manager CCP Hf, EVE Online Contact us

Barakkus Caelestis Iudicium	Posted - 2010.02.03 18:32:00 - [127] Edited by: Barakkus on 03/02/2010 18:32:00 Autopiloting on an alt in a mammoth full of random bpos and junk, accidentally left autopilot set to shortest. Come back in the room and notice a little orange dot as the next jump, still slowboating it to the gate, frantically trying to grab the mouse and click to disable autopilot...just before I click off autopilot it jumps into a .4 system....on the otherside a gatecamp...and what's funny is I never run into gatecamps going through lowsec, except when I forget about autopilot settings...

ColdChimera Gallente JCB Industries	Posted - 2010.02.03 18:53:00 - [129] This was about 1 year ago, shortly after I started playing. I had just gotten enough isk to buy a shiny new Megathron. I was so excited to be in a battleship. My corp mate had a mission in a lowsec system next door and thought it would be a good chance for me to try out my spiffy new ship. I was leary at first but he insisted that "I would be just fine." Now, after I had just spent all the isk I had on the ship and few new mods, I didnt have enough to insure it...well, you can see where this is going. We got scanned down and I got tackled, friend got out. Pirate ask for 200mil or boom goes the thron. Being a noob I tried to pull the logoffski. I didnt make it. We still laugh at that from time to time. -------------- Originally by: Ahz The internet: Where the men are men. The women are men. And the children are FBI. lulz
Veliria	Posted - 2010.02.03 19:49:00 - [130] Back in my newb days in my mining Rokh I decided I wanted to mine Kernite but I was unaware at the time it was available in Amarr high-sec. Yep you guessed, I took a mining Rokh into low-sec, two WCS and mining upgrades and everything. The funny part was, I never lost it although I only used it for about two-three days before heading back. By all accounts that Rokh shouldn't have made it off the gate let alone mine solo in low-sec for three days...but it did. Nowadays if I'm in low-sec it's in a Pilgrim.

Hardiel Da'le'mei	Posted - 2010.02.03 20:19:00 - [131] Well on my main - left eve to play wow in 2005...missed out on sooo many skill points :P On this guy 1) Playing again and thinking that low sec was nice and safe like it used to be in 2005 - just being careful when jumping in. Of course populations have increased from 14K max to 55K max therefore low sec isn't as quiet as it was...podded in my miner.. 2) Wardecced and deciding that flying in empire would be ok, went afk shuttle flying to get this guy his BS....boom...25 mil worth of implants later less stupid.

Decided to go "salvaging" in lowsec (hoping for my first real pvp experience). Go out in my rifter to an asteroid belt, and there's a wreck. I lock it and fly over, in comes flashy red AF...starts locking so I do the same, and click on my guns (thinking they'll start firing when I get lock). Dialog box pops up, didn't bother reading it, figured I was in lowsec so no need to worry about CONCORD. Instead of shooting the AF, I shoot the wreck (belonging to someone else). AF quickly dispatches me. All mad and butthurt, I go back to station one jump over and thinking to myself "I'm gonna get that big bad pirate" and hop in a Cyclone that I had just purchased couple days before. Hit undock and when the black screen of undocking goodness disapears, I find myself in a pod, unfortunately I didn't know that the red countdown at the top of the left hand portion of my screen was a global criminal countdown. When I realized what happened, I went back in station embarassed and waited out the timer. Undocked and looted/salvaged my wreck hoping no one would notice. I then got another Cyclone and fit a shield and armor tank to it (lol) and some ACs and Arties (double lol). Head over to the system I got blown up in the first time, and lo and behold, same AF warps into the belt, he starts attacking me and I quickly put him into armor. He warps off since I have no point. Comes back 2 minutes later with another AF buddy at around 50km, fail pirate says in local, "100mil and you live"...as they close the distance I pop his friend with arties. Right around the time his friend pops, I'm into half armor. I start pounding the remaining guy with drones and ACs. He warps off in structure as well as myself. Took me 2 or 3 hours to get off that adrenaline rush. Now I know better about gcc, fittings and points :P Originally by: CCP Dropbear rofl edit: ah crap, dev account.

Sdlonyer	Posted - 2010.02.04 01:11:00 - [134] Bought two miners instead of one by not paying attention. Left station on a Bantam instead of Merlin hence not enough cap for a lot of warps. Made 13 jumps shopping trip instead of quick hop to Jita. All within the last half hour. sigh
