Recently I created a alt account for hauling and other things.
While freighting some cargo I was watching rookie help chat and this is what I saw and I quote,
Rookie: How dangerous is null space?
Random person: Null is lethal, if you go there you will die.
Random person: Its just a matter of time.
This conversation is exactly how I saw it go down in rookie help chat. This is exactly why newbro's are null averse. I made a post in rookie chat right after that exchange. Basically I told the newbro that he/she needed to find someone or a corp that would be willing to spend a little time to show them some techniques and with smart piloting, null is not as bad and some make it out to be.
I know rookie help is open to anyone so your gonna find all kinds of people in there and there isn't much to be done about that. This is just my humble opinion but as far as helping new pilots experience all part of eve rookie chat seems to be a detriment in that area.
As an aside I'm pretty new to null myself so I know how daunting venturing out into low/null can be.

When NC. get shoo'ed away by Goons and Goons get bored then you will find Providence a peaceful desert.
I don't think it matters. The adventurous will go, "To hell with it" and find out for themselves. The risk adverse will sit around in pockets hoping someone comes to their rescue and they are better off in High Sec.

Ive seen that more than a few times... like everytime I roll a new alt. Its a damn shame that the cowardly try to scare others into staying in the pillow fort with them. Youll also see a lot of "you shouldn't go to low/null unitl you have at least # of SP.." usually by the same people who said don't go to null in the first place.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Part of the problem is that when people are given a choice between a "yes/no" and "depends on X/Y/Z" people will listen more to the simple answer.
Because it's easier.

Mostly a solo pilot here so not sure what value you may place on my opinion in this matter, but null and low sec is just far safer for so many reasons.
Mainly you know where you stand with the folks out in the depths, if they don't want you around they'll let you know in no uncertain terms. The conversations I had with random pilots have for the most part been fun if more or less siding on the strange, even the pilots that are hunting you are out having a laugh and a bit of fun. I haven't come across anyone trying to double my isk or give me a great looking deal in a contract.
Most importantly not everyone out there is trying to kill you, I have learned more and have had more help from random pilots in deep space than in hi sec. At this stage in the game I only go to hi sec now to sell my cargo.
Oh and you never get those "oh ****" moments in hi sec, I don't think I have ever left a a wormhole into a hi sec system to be confronted with a sea of bubbles and a couple of hundred pilots putting on an awesome light show  |

Weeeeeell... Technically, this is correct: sooner or later, you WILL die if you go to null. (Same with low, WH and high.)
It all depends what you do to postpone (or precipitate) this ineluctable fatality, what you do to recover from it and the fun you're having while doing so.

Sorry. It's what people generally believe. So, it's what gets said. I notice people saying, "Find someone..." I never see them say, "I'm here. I'll show you." This elusive "someone" is pretty hard to find in EVE. Advising people to find "someone who..." is as bad as the other advice...sad state of affairs? Like you really care.
If you did, you'd be passing invitations, not handing out generalized, pie in the sky advice.
Find someone...ooOOOOoooOOOOOOo...he's out there....really......

Exactly but it should not be up to the players to guide people to nullsec. CCP could provide new pilots with the option to start in high sec, low sec or nullsec along with some guidance. |

I suspect it's done on purpose by the power blocs. The "Great Wall of Carebear" is as much psychological as it is "physical". Can't have "pubbies" and "plebs" getting all uppity and trying nullsec on their own, right? That might hurt the moon goo and safe farming.

Actually, I don't think postpone is the correct approach so far as delaying the inevitable. No risk no reward most of the time.
What matter more, I have found, is how much you accomplish in the game per your goals between the time of losing your ship. If ISK is your goal, and the factor of ship/material loss does not nuke your profit, then that's a win. Same thing for killboard. There are a lot of players who care little for such things and look for good fights. If you can get some fun in between getting turbo-stomped that's a win.
I have seen people in nullsec who are so afraid of loss they ran off from certain victory. I've been caught red-handed in wormholes by 4 - 5 man gangs and they all run off because individually they feared I could take at least one with me and individually they feared being the one getting taken (when in fact it would have been like kicking a baby).

EVE pvp players ( well some, not all ) act like Piranha that haven't had a meal in a couple of days... 
Getting into Lowsec / Nullsec... These locations can be major issue / concern for many players, mainly because of all the gate campers... With so many bottle-necked routes. Most don't even make it past these gates.
So you shoot yourself in the foot many times over by camping gates. Also camping stations...  If you leave the players alone for a little while, & let them do something they intended on doing. They might be more receptive / inclined in staying. Then blow them up 
Something makes a plash in the water... before you blink ya already killmail. To add insult to injury you then get the killmail linked in your mail box... or some utter rubbish of how easy you was to kill & please come visit us again... ridicule, mockery blah blah comments. "Don't get me wrong i don't mind how anyone chooose to play the game, but every action will have consequence".
Thus, resulting in players chatting about past experiences / warning others players not to make the same mistakes. Hence the stigma of players not wanting to go in such locations. This kinda play style is only really a select few players of the community as a hole... so this wall of text is for players that act like a Piranha at any chance they can get & add injury to insult with mockery comments. Please think how you treat others.
Forbidden fruit ( Google pasted )
Is a phrase that originates from Genesis concerning Adam and Eve in Genesis 2:16GÇô17. In the narrative, the fruit of good and evil was eaten by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. As a metaphor, the phrase typically refers to any indulgence or pleasure that is considered illegal or immoral.
Flesh
In the Book of Enoch [16] chapt. 1, verse 69: "And the third was named Gadreeel: he it is that showed the children of men all the blows of death, and he led astray Eve, and showed [the weapons of death to the sons of men], the shield and the coat of mail, and the sword for battle, and all the weapons of death to the children of men. And from his hand they have proceeded against those who dwell on the earth from that day and for evermore." Therefore, the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil was flesh and the methods to acquire it.
"Once you have tasted the forbidden fruit you would always want more, bloodthirsty for more"

You'll die eventually but you won't die as often if you plan ahead rather than blithely wandering into a gate-camp and wondering what the hell happened.

Well for one, I'll freely admit that I'm no where near qualified to show anyone the ropes. As I had stated and you so conveniently over looked, I myself am new to Null and pvp in general. I would do someone a diservice by trying to teach someone anything about null or pvp.
Secondly I happen to know someone who actually teaches a pvp 101 course to new players. I met him as he had advertised his service in the ingame chat. I took a chance and I'm the better for it. Now I'm out and about in Lowsec and Null having a blast. I also steer new players to this person who are looking to learn how to use claws and fangs.
Another thing I do is tell folks that there are corps and alliances who are new pilot friendly. For example Eveuni, Brave Newbies, Redemption Road and if I'm not mistaken the bigger alliances have corps dedicated to new players. For example Pandemic Horde. |

Yes, i couldn't agree more. Your points are very valid, & this kinda information would go along way with helping new players 
The only issue with your comment is that most new players will not plan ahead & check the map for the issues that could happen. Also many NPC corp members don't always give your kinda feedback, kinda like what the OP talked about.
Saying this SWA does have many vet players that do give decent advice & help , but i think it can be over-shadowed by trollers & people that would rather spam utter rubbish. Trying to filter this out as a new player, perhaps wouldn't be any of the wiser on what the truth actually is.
I must admit the feeling you get from appearing on the other side of the gate & nothing is about is rather a refreshing feeling, but i also get a buzz. Then the gate camp, you get target locked & they mess up. This time you manage to escape. Such a great feeling. ( transcendent feeling ) ... cya laters "wiggles ship"

Depending on how people approach them, especially newbies, most people will happily give tips on how not to die.
As you say some campers will troll and just be arses about it, but many are quite willing to advise and more if their victim isn't whiny.

I lived in null for a short amount of time. It was waaaaay to boring, so I moved back to hi sec to add a bit of spice to the day.

The Random person didn't mention: If you join a large alliance and prepare your journey, then getting in and out of null is easy. Living in null is also as a consequence even easier.
Although with the new sov mechanics, that might change when alliances break up, others become hostile etc (that's the theory).
Being solo in null is dangerous, regardless of new or old the character is.

This will be something to watch for a couple of months. Will it allow easier access to sov null, or will it get harder? NPC Null seems to be low sec with bubbles, and I don't anticipate that changing.
Le Moineau - this was a good point to bring up. There are dangers, they do get blown past reality in the telling, but there are some that thrive on that tale-telling. |

Look, the only thing I'm trying to do is shed some light on the subject.
I used to be one of those people who didn't want to explore null/low sec. I stayed in high sec doing the same things over and over again. Personally I hate to think that people are leaving because of bad information.
I'm going to be honest and say that I don't have a solution that everyone will like. But as a whole we as a community need to step up and show others that there is insane fun to be had out there. It would benefit everyone in the long run. It doesn't take much brain power to figure out that the more people that stay and play means more cool crap for us and more crap to blow up. |

The amount of of misinformation and outright falsehoods in the help channels is indeed staggering, even more so as certain types of players constantly hang out there and become sort of celebrities whose word becomes the Holy Grail.
But really, complaining and outright whining about that here on the forums is surely the correct thing to do as opposed to.... I don-¦t know, go to those help channels and clarify this nonsense?

Null and Low Sec will become less and less lethal more time you spend in it. Fact.  |

Most newbies will die solo in null because they lack the experience to understand how to not die.
It's pretty easy to not die, but to get that information you need to die a couple of times and/or research it thoroughly. Chicken & egg.
It's hard to convey how not to die in the sea of the rookie help channel. Map stats is about all I try to push as that's self evident once they find it. |
