So I was solo roaming in lowsec in my single ancillary tanked Thorax of doom, when suddenly A WILD WORM APPEARS. For some reason I don't exactly remember I was already at an asteroid belt or warp to one, and promptly got myself tackled. If I recall correctly his fit had empty highs so all of his dps was from drones; he began to orbit at about 25k and set a pair of drones on me.
Seeing as how those two drones represented the entirety of his 180-220 DPS, I began to web/scram and explode them while thrashing about like a madman with my overheated ancillary and MWD. And then the Worm pilot slammed into a nearby asteroid right as I once again tried to slingshot him doing about 2800 m/s. Bounced off rock straight into my Thorax, I applied scram/web and the full fury of 5 medium blasters followed in short order by the Worm pilot leaving in his pod. I opened the wreck, scooped 200M in faction loot and before I could escape was once again tackled by his corpmate in a Crow mumbling something in local about "dropping the loot." An Arazu also joined the party, but was either not fit with a scram or bad because I was able to slingshot out of the interceptor's point and warp to gate, giving them a good wave in local as I jumped into highsec with loot worth about 7x my total ship value.
If you ever do anything so old school cliche as fight at an asteroid belt, remember the risks of trusting the "orbit at range" option. |

Oh god... there is a LIST of "bad" things I have done.
- I used to run and manage mining operations.
- I once killed a corpmember younger than myself for giggles.
- I have fallen for the ISK-doubling scam.
- I have fallen for the margin-trading scam.
- I have lost an Ishtar, Dominix, and almost lost a Macheriel doing level 4 missions.
- I once had a newbie light a cyno for my carrier (carrying billions of ISk worth of stuff). He lit it outside of docking range while a hostile pirate gang was in the area. I had to slowboat into docking range. I barely made it.
- I once played a drinking game with my fleet; take a drink each time we killed something and a shot if you died. We then encountered a large Brave Newbie frigate fleet (back when they really were newbies). We killed most of them before all dying in a fire.
I don't remember logging off.
- I once whored onto my CEO's dying carrier.
- I tried to make a smartbombing Tristan "work." It doesn't.
- I have Remote Repped enemies by accident.
- I once Remote Repped AND shot at a miner whose corporation I was at war with... just to see how much it could tank.
- When my CEO passed out, drunk, on his keyboard he forgot to dock his destroyer... in the middle of an active FW warzone. Others and myself bumped him off-grid so he had a chance to survive... but I shot his ship anyways "just in case."
- I have sold the corpses of my corpmates to their enemies... for ISK and giggles.
- I have engaged Pandemic Legion sub-caps in a skirmish fight even though the bulk of their capital and supercapital force was one system over.
- I once fit a 1MN Microwarpdrive on a cruiser and engaged a hostile force. I only found out what I had done AFTER it was all over I and had redocked.
- I overloaded my Capital RRs "just to see how much more I could rep." The repair bill cost just as much as the reps themselves.
- I once took part in a fleet that was being FC'ed by someone not even in-game! He was just giving us orders via a Ventrilo app on his phone... while he was driving... at work.
None of us died.
- I have GCC'ed next to a stargate... in a frigate... multiple times...
I can keep going.
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.

When I started playing we got wardecced by GHSC and I actually got on a kill on one of them (as in I leeched onto it), and because of that same war I moved to low sec to do belt ratting in my Caracal. My, then, female char got tackled by Ander and his gang who after chatting to me let me go without me paying any ransom.

Confession of an peacefull Player ...
At First: All my chars (12 on 4 accounts) are indu chars ... means they mine, produce (in different locations, 4 of them in null), haul, do some missions and are happy.
now my Confession: After 16 month of playing .... they have all 0 (zero) kill.
And this is GREAT
The high sec chars have all positiv standing to ALL Empires....
Also my losses ....... are really small... |

Going back about 9 years 
Bought my first BS, a typhoon. It cost me all my isk and I had sold everything I owned, and I was very proud of it's dustbin-ish looks. Suffice to say I had no where near the skills I would need to use it properly, but who cares, it was massive. Ofc, every good ship needs good insurance, so I fit some mining lasers, and 4 torp launchers and head to the belts.
In warps a can flipping merlin, and he flips my can. The damned cheek! I won't stand for that! He is but a fly to my mighty elephant, and I shall swat him with my trunk! Well the opposite happens, my torpedoes are completely ineffective while he orbits and plinks away at my death machine.
There is nothing I can do, so I appeal to my flatmates (who are also my corp mates) to come to my aid. Instead, they come and stand in my room and watch, while laughing at me. The ordeal lasted at least 10 minutes before my once mighty ship exploded in a flash of blue.
And there I was, iskless, and mining in a noobship so that I could buy a frigate.
Pleasingly, I was treated to a cup of tea by one of my flatmates. The other, however, called me a noob and suggested my time would be better spent by unblocking the toilet.

ha, like it. ;)
Reminds me of the same story when I bought my Geddon, my first BS, in Nov 2004. Named it the golden eagle. Was in service in PURE as we colonised Vale of Silent for about three years until I got my second Geddon, upon when it got retired. I still have it. Now is even more glistening glory thanks to the graphic updates. :)

I was but a lowly ninja salvager trying to get money to buy a Raven.
I probed down some guy running a Lvl 4. So I went back to station, hopped in my Noctis, and warped over there.
Immediately when I entered the room, he started burning towards me. Dragging all the rats with him. When he was close enough, he warped off.
The rats scram'd me and I lost my Noctis.

The only person i've ever scammed was a 7 year vet who subsequently quit the game right after 
I feel worse over missing a pod kill while typing this than the fact he quit ( over a mere 400mil )

Worst: Playing without having booted myself up properly, leading to pod and ship losses, as well as scamming myself out of 50m isk on a contract. Could be worse I guess.
Best: Meeting many cool people ingame. |
