I made this post because it's the 12th time I've done this...... stupid thing!!!!
1) Request a level 4 mission 2) Set the Destination in my Nav Route thingy... 3) Make sure I have Missiles. 4) Travel 4 jumps to the battle zone. 5) Try to warp to battle in system, but no Agent Mission in system ...... start feeling confused!! 6) kick myself for "forgetting to ACCEPT the Mission.. |

Back in the day when i lived in high sec, running missions for Lai Dai in nourvoukaiken (sp?) I accepted a mission that was one jump out. Instead of jumping to the right system i jump into Tama. Within 15sec i'm no longer in a drake. The campers dint belive i could no pay 20milion in ransom so i woke up in a station. |

after reading the title...
EVE General Discussion. nothing more You may gain the knowledge, but you will lose your belief, with all its mystery and comfort. If there was proof, absolute and certain, there is an afterlife, why not quit this life, and be done with it? Ponder about these things all your life, and you're a philosopher. Compress these ponderings into a couple of pages, and you'll go mad. |

Bought ship for pvp. Fit ship. Taken ship to lowsec. Blapped away. Reloaded...reloaded...re- *checks cargo hold* Damnit my ammo is still in Jita It's happened twice so far lmfao
I'll go sit in the corner now. It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself. |

Set up a huge buy order for ammo, was thrilled to be getting it so cheap. Nearly filled a hauler but had some room left over and grabbed some mission garbage from the item hangar just to fill up the cargo hold. Made 4 jumps to my corp HQ, then took a quick nap.
When I sat back down at the keyboard I dumped everything out of the hold into the reprocessing plant and hit enter. Then I looked for my ammo in the corp hangars... :facepalm: |

I've done a LOT of dumb things, in EVE. I don't even know when to start.
giving an isk scammer a billion isk to leave system and stop flooding the chat is high on the list, though... "you can identify eve players by looking at their cars. Since they don't drive what they can't afford to lose."-á --áBienator II |

Needless to say the scammer DIDN'T leave system... but I guess I gave him some publicity, so he occasionally sends me "finder's fees" whenever someone falls for his crap. So, I have pretty much got my bil back, by now. "you can identify eve players by looking at their cars. Since they don't drive what they can't afford to lose."-á --áBienator II |

A Collective Veteran fail.
During the start of the BOB & GBT vs RA/goon war in Delve one of our more veteran members found a huge and I mean huge combat exploration site. He and another Vet ended up losing a pair of Battle ships to it; more due to them both being under the influence of the fizzy pop!
Anyways, we are on Teamspeak discussing how we might 'take it down'.
Problem was that our Logi ships were out of position, and the war while still not hot was getting to the point where moving anything was either a big deal or getting dodgy without numbers.
As we discussed the matter, the only Intel we had was "There was a fo**ing shite load of them." Not really a useful description. So, seeing as I had a throwaway Executioner cluttering up my hold, I decided to use that to get to the site, then go in, loose the ship, then I could float about doing a better head count.
So off I go, get to the site, jump in, click on a central structure and issue the orbit at current range, then lit up the Over drive supported Afterburner. A couple of seconds my ship vanishes under a haze of green as about 50 BS with assorted rabble open up on Max. But by then I am trucking and nothing is touching me.
Anyways, I do a head count, and we spend another 20 mins discussing the best way to take it down with our limited resources to hand. Remember, this is about five day one and Beta age Vets.
Then a new voice chips in, one of the new guys, both new to us and new to Eve, still in high sec, but listening in to get a feel for things.
The Convo sort of went like this;
Noobie: Max, can I ask, you are in the site? Max : Yup Pause Noobie: In your Executioner? Max : Yup Pause Noobie: And you have the agro? All of the agro? Max : Yu............FFS!!!! %^&$-ú!!!!!
You could hear palms slapping foreheads and that famous Homerian battle cry "D'oh!" in several parts of the world.
Needless to say, within five minutes 4 Corp BS jumped in and the site started to die.
And yes, we all made a donation to ensure that Noobie got an equal share of the kill bonus and loot value |

Attacking another player in front of Dodixie in my second day of play. I thought it's a pvp game, so I get very mad at the npc's shooting me down.. almost filled a bug report. Took me a while to understand what Concord is and why I can't freely pvp in high sec :/ Never skip or rush the tutorials if your new to the game. |

Joined Minmatar militia, flew in the first novice plex i found, someone rang doorbell, docked ship at nearest station, went to check who is by the door. Came back to see message about "Amarr rejecting me docking rights", on a closer look i saw that i was already in my clone at Amarr, because i forgot to move my clone to minmatar space. Fit a frig, undock, got shot again. Leave FW, fly to Hek trying to join FW again, getting 24 hour message. |

I never did something stupid. Not even that one time I refused to stay aligned just because 5 hostiles entered our 0sec home system... -.-

Never bothered to look into what happens in Incursions. Undocked and headed for an asteroid belt in my Retriever. Started slowboating towards the roids and deployed drones etc. Panic set in when I realised that the first shot from the rat had taken a large chunk of shields. Tried to warp back out but was too slow to align. Pop. Learn to look up what happens, even if you aren't going to do them! |

I managed to get my covops decloaked popped and got podded. In highsec during a war. Wasn't paying attention. Really, a comatose had more situational awareness than me at that event. That's about the peak of stupid I have reached in EVE. Embarrassing really. Sovereignty and Population New Mining Mechanics |

The other day I was flying in my carrier in nullsec using sentry drones to do anoms I aligned as I normally do to the POS so that if a neut comes into system I can warp to safely pretty quickly. A few min later I realized that I didn't stop after aligning and that I was over 20km away from my sentries. As my drones were now being attacked I decided that the best course of action was to dock up get a FAST ship to run in there and grab all of my sentries. So I quickly grab my newly fitted Executioner with tech 2 weapons and rigs and rushed back out to the anom. Completely forgetting the fact that there were still TONS of battleships still on the field...Couldn't warp away fast enough... It wasn't until later when I actually warped back in with my carrier to pick them back up that I realized that even if I wasn't being attacked I wouldn't have had enough cargospace to hold them all anyways.
Never even got to tackle anyone in that fine ship... |

Week old nooblet got tired of the cans clogging up my overview. So I shot one. That is the day I learned of Concord. I try to be nice and mind my business just shooting lasers at rocks. There is just way too many asshats in New Eden for that to happen. |

Reimbursed a ferox by accidentally placing it into a shuttle the recipient was piloting at the time instead of a station hangar.
He got stuck.
While trying to run a camped gate.
Took a bit to fix that...

When I first tried eve in 2005/6 I had no clue. Knew nothing of ship fittings, so I got my rookie ship, mined some trit, shot some rookie rates and made myself 10k.
I was so happy, I saw this ship only 7k, really good speed... looked pretty cool.
So i bought it....
