Was about one month into eve during late 2008. Was really stoked that I had just qualified for a cruiser but still didn't have a clue about fitting ships properly. Back then, it took ages to make isk, especially if you were a noob and didn't have a clue. So upon seeing a couple of guys talking in local in Arant about mining some rarer ore next door in low sec, I decided to take the plunge and see what low sec was all about (again, slightly clueless about system security ratings). I fitted some Miner I's in a really poorly fit Vexor (mostly gained from loot) and did a couple of trips into Obalyu. Each time on my return to high sec, I sold the Ore; Jaspet I think it was.
Woo Hoo! I thought. Iskies!!
However, on my 3rd or 4th run into Obalyu, I was quietly mining away thinking "ill head back and sell this in a minute".. when local became really busy. Thinking it was just like high sec ,It didn't concern me that much.
How wrong could I be...
Apparently, the guy who ganked me thought I was a bait ship. He apologised afterwards and refunded me the cost of the ship. We then had a chat about low sec, fittings and for being such a noob.
I learned a lot that day. |

I was mining jasp in a bantum in a low sec system. A pilot came in and nuked me, I was able to get my pod out. I added said player to notify and vowed to someday hunt them down and kill them... but after a year I got occupied with other things, and after 5 years I removed tem from notify, and after 9 years, I have zero idea who that player was anymore lol.
Two months later, I got my first pod death, same way, mining jasp in ls with a thorax, got nuked and podded. Needless to say, my wife (at the time my gf) was not happy with the yelling. sigh that too was 9 or so years ago. Forgot that guys name as well. Oh well 10 years of eve... yea i'm an addict |

2 weeks into the game, I'm on my first corp mining op in Lonetrek, flying a Tormentor. CEO sitting in a ROKH says "Hey let me try my new guns on your ship" Ignorant Newb that I was, I said "OK". Don't think I even saw red on the HUD, just was suddenly in my pod. So, you're a bounty hunter. No, that ain't it at all. Then what are you? I'm a bounty hunter. |

I followed our "security officier" in a null-sec roam while being 2 weeks old in a newbie corp.
We were ordered to burn to that Oracle that landed 100km from us in ab frigates.
It didn't end well. |

Few years ago I was stupid enough to transport 300M worth loot I got from missions to Jita in industrial. Industrial was alpha-ed, CCP lost couple subscriptions. |

It was my third or so day, I had just joined a mighty high-sec mining corp, and I was protecting the innocent miners of highsec in my almighty and powerful ibis.
Out of nowhere like a ******* ninja, a Loki appeared and.. just sat there doing nothing. literally sat there watching us.
Being myself, the almighty pvp hero of my esteemed and prestigious corp, decide to engage the Loki with my trusty Ibis.
I locked down the Loki and managed to fire off my gun once before the evil and fearsome Concord decided to ruin the fiercest fight known to EvE History. |

First thing I did after the tutorials was a courier contract for a friend, picking something up in nullsec (docking rights were handled). I got a good bit into nullsec untill I got caught in a bubble on the gate I spawned at. Lost a Rifter and a pod, nothing big, and learned a great deal about nullsec mechanics straight from the gate. Got paid 5 mil for the effort too. |

About a week into the game in 2012, I jumped my shiny new missioning Thorax into a system that happened to save me 5 jumps when I changed some map settings. Security 0.4, Hurricane sitting on gate, had no idea that gate crashing was even a thing, thought I could outrun his scram range... Thorax down with nary a shot fired from the meta 4 blasters. |

It was November 2005.
Was flying in my new Cormorant and saw someone with a skull. Target... fire! Concorded. It was a yellow skull. Undocked from station in my Badger. Popped by station guns for being a criminal.
Was mining in my Osprey in low sec not long after. Caracal and another ship warped in. I thought... 23KM away? I can warp easily. Nope. Put into hull by the Caracal who had a MWD and Warp Disruptor. Smoke and flame. They were PvP trainees and their trainer called them off.
