hopefully this thread remains funny and not as derailed and awful as my last thread...lol.
So anyways does it ever just hit you sometimes that you just suck at something?
Well I suck at EVE, and I find it hilarious.
Just the other day I was out in 0.0 doing some PI (which I setup like crap), and I realized I needed to haul some loot to the reprocessing outpost nearby. I warped to the gate in my BESTOWERonly to find 30 friendly's camping and and my corp chat filled up with STOP STOP CAPSLOCK STOP NOW!!! I suck at EVE.
So I quickly warp to a random planet, only to find a Cynabal waiting for me...lol. He was 400km out though so I got away and warped to a POS we control. I suck at EVE.
A few minutes later the reds went away and I was told it was safe to come out, and I realized I was stuck in the POS Shields (see, I never got the password to enter the shields). It took me 3 minutes to warp to the gate. I suck at EVE.
Later I decided to go ratting in my Apoc. BTW I'm fighting Guristas in an Amarr ship (see: failboat). Anyways I'm ratting making good money and I find 2 1.4 million bounty BS. Well these can be tough for me to kill so I decide to overheat my guns (since its free to repair at our outpost). I get to talking on vent and notice HEY IM NOT SHOOTING. I overheated my guns to 100% and they went offline. So I run, dock, repair, and head back. Whoops I forgot to turn them online in the outpost so I'm being pegged by missiles again and STILL can't fight back. I suck at EVE.
So my buddies later are like, "wanna do an anomoly?" SURE! Sounds fun. I go there and I'm with 3 other people, a Golem a Slepnir and some other ship I've never heard of. We're owning the place and having fun when someone, and I have NO idea how I did it, I unlinked all 7 of my guns and so now I have to click all 7 guns individually and I can't change ammo efficiently so all my shots are missing. I suck at EVE.
And then, I realized, it's cool. I'm terrible at this game sometimes, from getting stuck in a wormhole and having to suicide, to taking my Bestower through low-sec and being killed, but I love it. I don't know why I'm bad at EVE and great at other games, but it's all part of the fun and if any of my corp or alliance mates read this thanks for giving me a chance and not taking it too seriously when I do something stupid. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CAPSLOCK, BECAUSE SOMETIMES REGULAR FONT JUST, ISN'T, GOOD ENOUGH. |

I made it back to empire from 0.0 in my T3 ship, and made it safely through Rancer. Once I got to high sec I hit autopilot because I had to go take a dump. I forgot this alt has bad Gallente standings so my Tengu and loot were lost to the faction navy. I suck at Eve.

Ah, the old "taking a dump" problem. Does the backstory address this issue with capsuleers?
Anyway...I'm always poor. Assets always <100 mill often less than 20 mill. So I SUCK AT EVE. _______________________

I too suck at EVE, but thankfully the full effects of my suck usually only mainfest when I engage in PvP, so I always pick my combat ships accordingly. I have this terrible problem where, even after nearly 5 years of practice, my brain just shuts off in the heat of battle and I make stupid mistakes that get me killed. The other facet of EVE that I keep messing up at is money. 3 times now I have spent over 750m isk on something worth less than 1% of that amount, and all 3 times they werent even contracts .
However, all that being said, I love this game and am likely to play it till either it or I die. <-------------------------------------------------> "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -Albert Einstein |

I suck at EvE as I play conservatively; not wanting to make any mistakes or to loose too much or fail too badly.
Thus I have no fun, thus I suck at this game.

Mining fit a Rokh in null sec without watching local because I'm distracted by a TV show. I glance over to find a little red dude and I align to warp. 6 other red dudes warp in and laugh as they shoot down a Rokh that can't fight back. I suck at EvE.
Hunting these guys across 12 systems, and finally about to get the jump on them. I accidentally type in local "So, when do we attack?". I suck at EvE.
It took me 5 hours to do a level 4 mission in a Raven. I suck at EvE.

Edited by: Mazzarins Demise on 11/06/2010 17:43:08 This happened a year or so ago, but still makes me sad. I was altering an order on a Charon I was selling, and instead of adding a number after the decimal point, I accidentally deleted the decimal point and fat-finger-typed another number. So instead of selling one for 875 mil, I was now selling it for 87.5 billion or around there.
The transaction tax was enough to almost wipe me out completely.
I suck at EVE =(
