Here is a thread to discuss our worst losses, doesn't have to be a ship, maybe you forgot to put skills in the training queue before going on vacation or accidently clicked "Trash It..." on some expensive officer/deadspace item or perhaps it was a ship.
Let your tears flow freely...
For me it as a Mach in a mission after hit warp and went afk a little too long with the booster off >.> 1,700,000 Species Of Plants...-á365 Days In A Year...-á243 Countries In The World...-á12 Planets In Our Solar System...-áOnly 1-Up Mushroom-á |

For me it was when I learned that I could not get a refund for 1 year subscription on 2 accounts. Was gonna unsubscribe and hoped to get a refund after not getting the GMs to refund my Golem.
The Golem was lost because of a bug/glitch that did not show up in their precious logs apparently. Features & Ideas Discussion: Agent Finder, Black Holes Needs a banner here.. |

My worst loss was my faith in CCP.
I hope they'll add a way to get new faith again with the next expansion. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. |

My worst loss is OUR worst loss, and that's the takeover of this forum by the IHI, a nefarious group of vandals who self-righteously step on every post, not allowing anyone to have an idea of their own. Through their narrow-mindedness and self-aggrandizement they've mastered beating a dead horse, but they can't seem to keep the carcass on their own posts.
It's ill, and there is no pill.
In keeping with the amenable OP:
"Worst" of course is a relative term. I've had more expensive losses, but at the point of my "career" this one occurred, it was pretty infuriating, and took some time to overcome.
'T was on a fleet op with the corpies, running level IVs for grins and gain. We were mustering at a point to warp in as a nice, well-organized (not necessarily sober) fleet. Everyone was taking their sweetass time about getting there, so I decided now would be a good time to take a bio break. I announced same in fleet audio/corp audio/corp chat/fleet chat, then scurried off to do the do. I come back to the horrifying sight of my pod. Seems the fleet commander got a bit impatient and decided to start the fun and games instead of waiting for everyone to show. He warped fleet to the site, dragging my brand new, T2 armor-tanked 'Cane with him (45 million set up at the time). I bet he was wondering why he wasn't drawing any aggro...gotta love the combat enhancing effects of Jack Daniels.
It's okay. Being shipless (for level IVs) I became the salvager and kept his share of the loot till I got the 45 mill back. He was too drunk to notice.
To her it doesn't matter much.-á It's chasms have been leapt, and she leans upon the skepticism of her chosen fate. |

Worst loss was when i setup a big escrow (back then) with most of my stuff to transfer to another character and due to a bug everything just disappeared. Of course the "logs showed nothing" so i lost almost 2 Bill without having done anything |

Not sure about worst but this is certainly my most stupid loss. I was doing missions in a Battleship and just after the change went in that made it very, very hard for Battleship type weapons to do damage to frigates I ran into some nice NPC frigates that had me webbed and I couldn't damage them enough to make a difference. Just as my ship was exploding I remembered I had some drones on it, had I used them I would have been able to kill those tiny insignificant frigates.

When I first started playing, I tried my hand at trading and saw that there would be a good profit moving slaves from one location to another about twelve jumps away. I didn't know anything about contraband at the time and put all my money into buying slaves in Amarr space. Wasn't paying too much attention around gates and while I saw the Concord notice, I kept clicking through it. By the time I got to the station my wallet was over twenty million in the red . Probably not my worst fiscal loss, but definitely the biggest oops I've had. |

well if it's about silly loss, i remember my first myrmidon, years ago ; i was manuafcuring it, was happy to have a ship to sell on the market, but as i needed to move it to another station, and as i never used a myrmi before, i wanted to test it on combat before selling it. i took a quick fit, asked an agent, went to the mission, and died horribly in less than 5minutes with my new shiny ship. seemed obvious to me that given it ws bigger than a brutix, the tank would last way longer, and that even if it was almost dead i would survive... was not the case. |

I was a few days into the game and I lost, I think, 2 destroyers and a frig in the span of an hour or so. Those were my only 3 ships. It was very heartbreaking for a new player. |

My biggest loss would be accidentally biomassing my previous main character (I had an alt with a very similar name, big mistake).
For losses that aren't characters, my biggest loss would be a set of blueprint originals. |

I lost my Myrmidon in a 0.0 roaming session warping in the middle of about 30 BC's fleet waiting for us... and I was insta-popped and pod-killed. I didn't upgrade my clone, so I lost many SP invested in Gallente Cruiser V and found myself again with that skill at IV and about 7 days to train it up again to lvl5.
All this mess just because I misunderstood my FC order and warped at the wrong gate |

I lost two faction fit Legions in a row. One to the friendly boys in Neg Ten while crossing that 0.4 system they infest in the Caldari COMOS region. Cost me my pod as well since I'm not one for paying ransoms. The second time was when after I got past them and I was inadvertently uncloaked while afk in the complex once I got there.
Lesson learned.

This is my worst loss:
Oops moment
What the killmail fails to tell you, is that carrier was transporting a deadspace fitted navy scorpion inside, worth approx 3 billion.
Weirdly, I just lol'd and went to bed :)

Worse loss was a 3bn ISK missioning CNR with CN loadout and Gist XL booster that I'd bought with PLEX to enjoy myself a bit.
Went into worlds collide L4, got hit by lag and in the process managed to agro the entire first room. My connection dropped and I came back to find myself flying a pod.

So that was my main with my very first BS -a Megathron. That was like 3 months into EVE. Never had heard of tracking, but i figured that owning a bigger ship with bigger guns made a bigger bang. So I went into my very frist Lvl4 with my very first BS.
Turned out I never had heard about warp disruption.
Turned out I never had heard about "how to tank properly"
Turned out I never had heard of "drones are used on frigates when you fly a BS"
So i was warp scrambled, de-tanked and slowly smashed by a bunch of cruisers/frigates in the worst 50 seconds I ever spent in EVE. I left playing for a few weeks and then Ishtanchuk was born. I've lost other ships and i've lost quite a bit of money, but that experience was by far my worst loss.

Lost a Deimos in an L4 mission with lots of webbing frigs.
It was a shame because I'd been really enjoying using the Deimos for L4s, and was on a bit of a roll (it was fast). I just underestimated how deadly being slowed down a lot would be. I mis-timed a few things and boomed. |

Self destructed pod to "get back in the fight" only to be very confused as to why I couldn't pilot my vagabond any more... Dumbest part of eve is skill point loss from death. Don't think I bothered loggin in for the entire time it took to get back the lost skill.
Ships I have hundreds of and when I lose one, just replace it with wallet .. Skill point loss = negative fun
Never undock without medical being up dated now, no matter what is at stake ---- CONCORD arrested two n00bs yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off. |
