kredis asdf,
Sometimes entering or traveling through Low Security Systems (0.4 to 0.1) and Null Security Systems (0.0) is unavoidable. Always check the Star Map statistics (Active ships, Ship kills, Pod kills, etc) before traveling into those systems. Try to plot alternate routes that bypass active systems. The use of a Cloaking module and the information contained in these links will also help improve your safety.

uh, besides crimson's nonsensical answer
did you have a suspect or criminal flag from taking from a wreck or can, or shooting someone? do you have -5 security status? if you were flagged the other guy can aggro you without the guns targeting them
what ship was the other guy flying? if it was a destroyer he could have popped you then warped off quickly, if it was cruiser or above he could have simply tanked the guns
you haven't provided much info though so it's hard to say vOv |

A camper can aggro and kill you if he can tank not only the gate guns but also you. He catches a suspect flag for that. Gaining a suspect flag within view of gate guns starts them shooting, but they only continue to shoot so long as you're "on grid" with them (in sight). Once you warp off, you can come back safely.
So what your aggressors likely did is shoot and kill you, then warp off to clear gate gun aggro. That's also a likely reason why your buddy made it through fine. If you're not already part of a bloc, this is the best guy for CSM8. |

Interesting answers so far; all I'll add is: "Awesome for going to lowsec and not being stuck in a safespot!" EVE Ambulation and Avatars as a separate game - see here |

If the campers use nagas or tornados then its also pretty easy to kill stuff coming through and never get aggro from gate guns, as those ships can be fit to instalock and shoot out to 200 km. Tornados are ofcourse the favorite. |

Now I am stuck in lowsec and can't get my ship clean. Whenever I ask for someone to help, they just laugh and call me poopiehead.

Gate guns can be tanked.
However, I've managed to escape by burning like a scalded cat for a celestial picked at random, while tackling, webbing, and firing on their tackle. I don't remember if I out-distanced them or just forced them to disengage, but it's viable. |

Yuo and your budy might learn a lot if you each buy a cruiser and put together good tanks for them, then go find a quite lowsec gate and start shooting at the gate guns.
Get a feel for their range and damage, and how often they switch targets. Warp off and then warp back see what they do. Aggro them and then try and dock or jump, see what those timers are like. You can ask questions here and read a ton but short of being on voice with someone who understands them or experimenting with them yourselves you probably wont get a good idea of how they work and how to deal with them.
This is a youtube playlist going over my first 30 ship losses. Video sucks but the audio came out well.There are some good lessons, and if you know the game there's some funny stories. |

Nonsensical?
Let's take a look at the meaning of that word.
Obviously if you had actually bothered to read those links, then you'd know your comment is completely absurd. I'm not gonna hold hands or sing 'Kumbaya'. He asked questions and I posted info that not only provides answers, it also instructs and informs the player on how to safeguard themselves.The answer to all his questions is contained within those links. All that's required on his part is a little bit of reading.
In this game, it's all about gathering intel. In other words = Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.

Lol. Future GM right here. Canned answer that doesn't actually answer the question, but seems to provide useful info links. As people have said, it is possible to tank the lowsec gate guns, or now, wipe them. All they have to do is sit on or near the gate in some like a phobos with remote sensor boosters, proteus works great too, they kill you, then warp ~1000km from the gate, offgrid, and back, guns are reset. |

There's an old joke about a pilot in a helicopter.
Joke wrote: It's fairly foggy and he's trying to reach a landing site; but he can't see for shoot. There are however buildings looming fairly close and he manages to attract the attention of one of the employees in the building. With a bit of gesticulation and arm waving he manages to ask:
"Where am I?"
The employee nods, scribbles on a piece of paper and holds up a sign that says: "In a helicopter".
The pilot gives him a thumbs up, lifts the bird and heads to the south east, straight to the airport. The passenger is amazed and says:
"How did you know that from what he said?"
The pilot grins and says: "He gave me an answer that, while correct, was absolutely useless. Meant that was the Microsoft building and the airport is south east from there".
You could have answered his question with a one or two line response; given him support. Instead you bombarded him with useful information that didn't really get down to the actual question. Microsoft employee? :) EVE Ambulation and Avatars as a separate game - see here |

OP should know that since Retribution, warping off-grid with the guns is enough to make them lose aggro. Even when you re-agress the target, the gates' sentry guns will not respond. Hence, a single bookmark just off-grid (> 250Km) can enable a pirate to quickly lose sentry aggro and warp back on the gate. Because sentry guns cycle through their targets, a large enough group can keep a presence at a gate while members with suspect flags shed sentry aggro. |

Do to how argo from gate guns work now after they fire and warp off grid and warp back gate guns will not start fireing a 2nd time.
iam sure the guns fired on them but they warped off and came right now. Know how its works and yes they can live.

Had a cup from a blend that included 20% of that stuff a couple of weeks ago - pure smooth awesomeness, truly the best coffee I've ever had.

Don't waste your time with this guy. He claims his coffee is good, but he does not use proper quality control, or add flavours. When I create my own specialty poop-coffee, I make sure not only to eat a fully organic and healthy diet, but I select special foods with flavour profiles that will match, and accentuate the natural flavours of the coffee beans as they pass through my body and spray out into thick frothee chunks in bags ready to be delivered for your convenience. |
