Why is it that every 2 ships that comes trough a 0.4- gate is a n00b player, thus not beeing more that 14 days of age ?
Im not talking bout the hundreds of alts, but actual new players ?
I remember wondering into 0.4 when i was 1,5 months old, and it scared the **** out of me. But no, they run around as mad. And piracy havent exactly tuned down either.
In my line of profession, i sometimes gategank in lowsec space. And im not totally lacking sense and emotions, so pod'ing a n00b gives me a bad day sometimes.
Is someone telling these ppl that lowsec is safe ? cuz, 0.4- has never been as unsafe as now, actually yr more likely to get ganked in 0.1 - 0.4 than in 0.0 i would say.
As recently as yesterday i ganked a osprey in 0.2, then found out she/he had been playing for 13 days or so, so i made a mence by covering her/his loss, and suggested she stay out of lowsec space. Carebearish i know, but damn, even pie-rats have a heart.
Oh yeah, this tread is just a post of toughts, no real issue here :)

"You ******* *******, blody noob.

bother, and warp to next gate and gank his pod aswell.

That's true. When I first started, I pretty much did all my playing in a 0.6 system. I never ventured far from there. Now that I've played a few months, I don't often leave 0.0 space. But when I am in low sec space, I see a whole lot of people who've only been playing days.

Noobs go into 0.4 because 0.5-1.0 is boring.
Took me about 3 days for the rats in belts in 0.5+ to become less than a challenge. I even tried group mining jaspet with a bunch of noob corp ppl. Well, I didn't actually mine, just flew around in my punisher watching others do it and shooting the odd rat that turned up.
Funny thing is, I now spend most of my time in 0.5+ doing kill missions. Strange huh ?

I remember within a week of me starting, a bunch of us in our corp went mining in y9g for some crokite, was quite funny considering we all started within a few days of eachother, and we scarpered when a bs came lol.

And you got me you putz!  I should have never been down there in a merlin anyway. But now that I am more or less not a noob anymore I know how to travel. You taught me a valuable lesson. I still would like a rematch sometime.

You are a true pirate. I wish they were all like you, then I wouldn't have to go around exterminating them. I'd probably become one!

Two words: Free Clone
But seriously, send a little isk and a friendly note to all the poor genuine new players you gotta pod. It's always been the classy thing to do, plus, it gets them on the slightly faster track to becoming neighbors (with better loot).

I've been playing for all of 3-4 days now. From time to time, I can't find safe routes, so I have to take my chances in .3-.4 space. Luckily, no one has been too hostile when I'm passing through.
I try to have the foresight to check the map for ship and pod destruction over the past hour, and I like my autopilot to avoid low security space.
