So... new hole bro here to share my story.
I decide to go run some anoms in my neighboring c2- the info on the hole said it was reaching the end of its natural life cycle, which for this particular hole means I have somewhere between 4hrs 15m and 15m... great, I'll just park an alt on one side of the hole, cloak, and check its status every 5-10 minutes.
I'm sure you all know what happens next- during the second wave of my first anom, I tab over to check the hole and it's gone. WTF?!? I say to myself. The wiki told me I would get a "This wormhole is on the verge of dissipating into the ether" message before it collapsed! its only been 5 minutes! wtf?
I ask in WHadvice, and apparently this warning was never implemented. I know I should always have a probe scanner. I know this. But can I not rely on the information in the official CCP wiki to be correct?
If anyone has an exit in J103408... you can have all my <3333's in return, and probly some isks. ...or if you want to just come blow me up I'll be waiting.
In the mean time- please CCP... either implement this message or make the information in your wiki correct.  |

You touched my heart. If I find that hole I would help you for free. But I'm not going to hunt for it. Just keeping an eye for it. |

Appreciated. I'm just curious- how would they be able to help? They don't seem to be the inhabitants- are they just extremely prodigious probers? (as their name might imply) |

You think there is any chance of reimbursement considering the bad information? I certainly don't expect it, but should I even bother petitioning? |

Your first mistake was reading the eve wiki.
Your second mistake was believing anything on it.
Your third mistake was bringing an alt SPECIFICALLY to watch a WH in a CLOAKED ship and NOT have it in a probing ship. Seriously, that just makes no sense at all... |

Haha bad information.
Everything about wormholes and wormhole space is subject to the will of BOB. That and the RNG.

Well I think its great that we have people who are willing to give wormhoels a try, need more people like you!
It pretty much comes down to, if a wormhole is "Reaching the end of its natural lifetime", or what we wormholers like to refer to as "EOL", you should re-consider entering it, especially if you do not know when it went EOL exactly!
You learned the leasson the hard way, I am sure it will stick. Hopefully you will continue your endavours in W-space. |

For time collapse:
GÇó "Life cycle has not begun" - This means you've found a wormhole just as it is forming, and it will spawn in a minute or two.
GÇó "Probably won't last another day" - This is the wormhole's main life, and has over 25% of it's total time remaining.
GÇó "Reaching the end of its natural lifetime" - This signifies the wormhole will be naturally collapsing soon, having less than 25% of it's total time remaining. Collapse is imminent.
thats on the official wiki, i'm not even sure what you are referring to |

The wrong info is in the detail pages for specific wormholes, like here:

This wormhole is on the verge of dissipating into the ether. = IS REAL... every wormhole in Bobs Garden has this wonderful feature. Also having an Alt on the Wormhole to watch it vanish is a solid plan. So you know exactly when to stop.
Also may i ask the obvious question? If you were farming in the C2... WHY DA PHUK didn't you scan out the Highsec exit (or atleast the Nullsec).
My mind does not reflect my corp ... it just shows you what they care about...

sigh....you people are even more terrible then me, i at least make sure the research resources are correct
if you had your way then wormholes had infinite lifetime and probe launcher would be recommended to be reproccessed on the wiki |

Bob is the God of W-space, to which all our successes are owed.
RNG is the devil, who constantly tests our commitment by copy-pasting the same orange hell into every c4.
Jeegus is the jackass in charge of monitoring mass transit through a hole. He finds it funny to collapse them on the third Orca.
Can you hear them? They are calling to us. It is beautiful.

Nice try, but I didn't PLEX that one, or the one I bought and fit moments later... and it wasn't really expensive to learn that information in the official wiki cannot be trusted. |
