coolest thing is knowing there is a huge gatecamp waiting for you on the otherside as relayed by the guys behind the line then taking the plunge only to see the blob and then warping to the CO at a SS hoping you dont get scrambled. Then engaging the blob when the team is ready :)

best rush i got, was fighting a pirote at a station, i warped my wounded geddon to 15km from the station, and a big red flashing pirote started shooting me up, he was at 25km from me and i had tachs on, multies for the win, he did not last long and im suprised i won on a damaged ship with no hardners and no gank setup on. but the rush a few nights ago killing a dread that was fantastic.
look for killing serpentis dread topic to look what i did.

Your reaction is normal and bth very cool, only downside is that an adrenaline rush might stop you of thinking clearly.
I too remember those times, do they go away? They'll easen off bit by bit, also as you gain experience and think you can handle the situation. There'll be a time you won't have those rushes anymore because of little events like you describe, but will when flying something you don't want to lose. Also when the time is you got a 1bil+ wallet and only flying in a ship worth less than 30m (af), you won't be nervous anymore, cuz who gives about losing it.

It is the period just before combat that really gets me. The waiting. Endless waiting. Anticipation. Once I have the flashing squares on my overview and primary is called, nerves are forgotten. I can relax and just focus on what I'm supposed to be doing.
Yeah, the nerves and the adrenaline come from the knowledge that it matters if you win or lose. The outcome is important because of simple pride, or financial loss, or effort that is wasted. I don't mind losing as long as I have some fun in the process. I guess that's why we complain about lag more than anything else in Eve: it's the one thing that removes the fun. If you're gonna die, you want to actually be involved in the process.
