Annoying, isn't it?

I thought a nice 3/10 would be just the thing to try out my shiny new assault Frig. I realised that most of the complexes would have been emptied out by the evening (EvE-time), but I had some time off in the middle of the week and docked somewhere convenient just before downtime.

Downtime comes. Downtime goes. I'm back on the server only seconds after it comes back up. Undock. Warp to complex beacon. Activate acceleration wossname. Argh! Someone's already half way through the rats and has already snaffled the gate key. Bye the time I jumped to the other complexes in the region they were swept clean. Neutral

Fair enough, EvE's a game where pretty much anything goes and if someone wants to farm complexes they can. But I had the foolish idea that it might be nice to do a complex for, like, fun. As a respite from the mission grind I'm doing at the moment to raise standings. And I couldn't, 'cause everyone else is grinding complexes and there's a limited supply of them. I'm not annoyed, I'm just disappointed. Sad

I know, I should have gone out of safe empire space. I just don't want to get my nice new assault frig blown out from under me quite yet.


That would have been me that was half way through the complex by the time you joined the server. That was the 2nd time I've done that particular complex; the first being immediately before DT the same day, when the good stuff had already been cleared out.

Haven't you got a secure can anchored in one of the levels?
