My first PvP experience was with a different account. I had mined for two weeks in a bantam and desided to cash in my effort. So I took my new badger that I barely could offord and flew to the best price I could find on the market. Like 5 jumps later I enter low sec. Like 5 seconds later I was podded and laughed at. Apparently I was a "f*cking noob". Two years later I come back and start a new account. That was 2 years ago. |

My First Time was with, I think, R1FTA (and by "with" I mean "on the receiving end"). I had taken a Velator into Lowsec to do some mining when I was only a few days old, and one of them warped into a belt with me when I was half-through a single cycle. I got pointed and webbed, and he attempted to ransom me.
I laughed at it, shot the **** with him for a minute or two as he tried to ransom with me, then set my ship to self destruct. He blasted me at this point, then, and because I didn't yet have an Escape tab created, I ended up getting my pod pointed, as well. I promptly set up my pod to self destruct, and the guy tried to barter with me for ransom (getting down to a million ISK, which was significant at that point in time for me) until he popped my pod at about 30 seconds left.
I sent him a mail after commenting that if he had waited about 30 seconds longer to grab me, he would have been able to make a few hundred-thousand ISK off the ore I would have mined. He replied, complimenting me on how "cheeky" (his word) I was, and that he liked that attitude.
It was probably one of the best moments I had ever had in an MMO.

My first PvP experience was when a ganker followed me into a mission - me in a cruiser, him in a battleship. He hit me with a swarm of T2 drones, then after blowing up my ship and scramming my pod, offered to release me for 1 ISK and a warning that since I'm a noob and don't know much, THIS time he'll be nice about it.
It's okay. I immediately put him in my contacts with good standings. Every time he logs, I get his picture on my screen. After a few years, I too could use a T2 ship with T2 gear and T2 drones. I tracked him down using locator agents. Found him in a station, then camped it. He came out. He blew up. I gave him 1 ISK, with a message that read: You don't remember me, do you.

Wouldn't change a thing about that experience. When I made Garamonde, I'd already decided that I didn't want to be a carebear anymore. So, I solo'd for a bit to get used to PvP, then joined M3 Corp.

I lost my first ship because I tried doing a Sleeper site with a Thrasher (almost alpha'd by one shot from an Orthrus, lol) and ran away to a planet. I hadn't bookmarked the hole back, so while I was probing I hadn't noticed the Loki that had appeared to give me a big hug.
Your first PvP experiences will almost always be a loss. Its what you learn from the losses that counts.

Yep.
Your first mistake was Rancer.
There is no PvE in Rancer..... there is only sorrow and loss.

Embarrassed to say my first loss was a hauler a few days in. I had just bought a noob skill book and went to fetch it in a low sec system, I thought cause my hauler was "big" i'd be able to tank any damage on my trip and got ganked by someone tanking the gate guns....Good old WoW, messed my perpective right up  |

You don't have to worry anymore, I learned my lesson and now restrict all my mining activities exclusively to hulls.
You don't scare me. I've been to Jita.

My first loss was a 3x medium shield extender thorax with no resists or boosters and small guns. Lost it to a pirate camp in lowsec heading to my new corp's HQ in highsec.
first pvp was in the same corp, we went into 0.0 and caught a raven, I was the cannon fodder, I mean fast tackle. |

My first loss was in Low Sec flying my brand new Retriever ... stupid agent said I'd have no troubles at all.  ... should have been the first clue.

Those pirates were agents of stellar accountability... everyone needs to know the plight of the endangered lowsec asteroids. There should be zero tolerance for the heartless sport miners who get off on devouring our rare Plagioclase, en masse, for nothing more than fun.
Asteroid poachers should be afraid to so much as scan our beloved wildlife.
