First, this isn't a complaint thread. I want to make that clear that I am not complaining about what happens to me or how the game is unfair, etc.
That being said, when was the last time you rage quit or at least were like **** it, I am done with EVE for the night because of something that happened?
It has only happened to me a couple of times and last night was one of those nights. Lost 4 ships last night, two to gate camps, one in a plex and one to a ganker while I was on a mission.
So the first ship I lost to a gate camp of like 20 ships. Went back and reshipped, picked a completely different route(looked at map, picked a route with few ships destroyed and all that), died to another gate camp as I was running away from a roaming fleet. Went back and reshipped, picked a route with absolutely no ships destroyed finally make it to my destination and get into a novice only to have an astero decloak while I was literally about to push scan on my d-scan. Points me, I go boom(though at least that fight was close).
So I decide to work on my standings and do a mission. Go to a system with literally one other person in it, jump to 10 k off mission gate, with a worm waiting to greet me. Warp off, wait ten minutes. Warp 100 k off, he is still there, points me and I go boom. That's when I said good night EVE I'll see you later. |

Won't argue with you there. Been thinking all morning about what I would have done differently and how I am going to **** some ******* ******* over tonight. Aw EVE, you are like the dark side, slowly corrupting innocent people into raging murder machines.

I've never once rage quit (Quitted?) because of the game.
I have rage quit several times because of my own stupidity. And because I realized that it was my own stupidity rather than the game or the "evil bad people killing me and thus they are lame people" (aka other people just playing the game within the rules of the game), I got better to the point where I don't need to rage quit over my own stupidity (much) any more lol. |

I stopped for several months after I lost about 2.5 bill worth of exploration loot including a faction tower BPC after spending days just trying to find a wormhole back to hisec. That was also partly due to some burn out as well as lack of direction after:
- Spend months training for t3s to do null relic/data sites-->CCP removes rats from relic/data sites - Spend more time training up support skills to do W-R C4s in T3 thanks to the resist bonus-->CCP adds extra static to C4s and removes the resist bonus from Wolf Rayets - Train toward Marauders to do C4s-->CCP fixes Sleeper RR making anoms much slower and more dangerous for a solo player
Since then I've decided that it's more important to do what you enjoy in small enough amounts that you can still enjoy it instead of grinding toward some long term goal. Also, a couple weeks ago I ended up in a system again with the guy who got that kill on me and we had a good cry[ laugh about it, so life is good again. |

That wasn't a Ganker i'm almost 100% sure, think you probably just got killed fair & square :) Unless gankers are flying in worms these days..
I have never rage quit EvE, although there are 2 losses on my record that account for around 80% of my total career losses (1.2bil Legion and at another time a 1.8Bil Pod). On those 2 occasions i probably logged out immediately and did something else in a "rage quitty" kinda way, but i always calm down within the hour :D Love EvE for that kind of emotional depth
Both examples taught me very valuable lessons i still remember to this day, and have probably saved me that much isk many times over in avoided losses due to a more developed strategy as a result.

Ragequit? hmmm I wouldn't call it "rage", but I certainly quit EVE once and didn't expect to ever come back. Didn't even look back into what was happening for over six months, and that was on accident. Never made a leaving EVE thread, though I did make some wtf posts, just uninstalled and canceled my account. Was after the release of WiS. Didn't come back until CCP changed their course to just fixing this broken game and had put some actual effort into it. I'd do it again if it went back to that all over.

Made me bitter about the game for a few days but not really a rage quit. As close as I've ever been to one I guess :)

Last night when a WingspanTT pilot watched me fail-torp a Venture in J-Space, I was so embarrassed I left the hole, flew to Dodixie and sulked for a half hour before I logged for the night. Live and learn.
Nevermind the Myrmidon, 2 Stratios and the Manticore that was in the hole too. They probably played a part in me leaving too. |

Was moving T2 Inventions BPs, components, tools, etc. once. From around Hek to the border of EC-P8R, an entrance to null. The plan was to set up the inventing operation on the high sec side for income, while mostly guerrilla roaming around Goon space trying to harass things. The last haul involved bringing my low volume stuff (perfectly researched original BPs) and my best PVP ship (loaded-fit Stabber Fleet Issue) to that edge of null spot.
I forgot I was in Estel Arador for a couple of days, to get a jump clone. Marmite had them wardecced, popped snagged and popped that Stabber Fleet Issue along that high sec route. A year of researched BPOs, etc. in the wreck-- gone. They offered to let me sing in comms to get them back, but reneged on the deal when I said, "Oh yeah, I have a jillion hours forced karaoke singing practice from living in Japan!" No deal.
I was about to rage/fail quit for about half an hour. Called on my corpies for advice, they said: "Don't worry man, everybody has an embarrassing loss." So here I still am today. |

From what you post anyone can tell your stupidity is actually getting worse every time you adapt to the new depth of it. Can we expect you to finally quit anytime soon?
About me, I unsubbed about 3 weeks ago due to ship loss issues. With tens of billions in the wallet, losing a cruisers still hurts too much to be tolerated. And since there will always be lazy stupid no-life people who will over-abuse any killing mechanic no matter what, for reasons too stupid to understand without using some substance which will bring me down to their level, instead of playing for fun, they are just going to kill the fun for everybody and then kill eve. |

Last two times I played I said "F this" and logged. 1st time we were hunting an Anime Master Vigilant and a TEST Exeq navy who harrassing us on station. Myself and a few others were gung ho to give a go at. We got the Exeq, but couldn't hold tackle on the vigilant.
None of that surprised me but the carebear who was constantly going on about "don't engage them" and "you'll just die" was so irritating I had to quit... Considering we lost a 'ceptor and a T1 fit Condor and killed a 90m ship I'm not sure what his problem was.
Then tonight people rambling on about crap talking over the FC whom I was trying to listen to.

Although I've taken several breaks from the game, I've never ragequitted it. I was about to do it with my first char after losing my first Megathron in my first Level 4... I didn't knew what had gone wrong but I assessed to the best of my knowledge (then) what I didn't liked from the experience and decided to start a different character with another race.
Say, a Khanid female because Teh Cute + Lazorz...
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

I have rage-logged off only twice, both times due to my own stupidity.
1)First time was on my hauling alt. Was transporting a lot of enyos(quite a lot of isk for me back then) for pew in an cargo optimized indy, with no stabs or cloak. Destination was set to my lowsec home system.
I was in a highsec- lowsec border system, and wanted to Dock up and change to something stealthy.
But for whatever reason I was distracted (or not thinking) and just kept following the yellow trail on the overview. I realized this as I am in warp into lowsec, but can't do anything at this point. Besides everything will be fine, what are the odds of the system being camped?
When I land, I have this "Ohhh F^ck moment" when I see all the flashies gatecamping. I keep hoping they leave, but ofc they don't. when i uncloak I barely manage to align before I am in my pod. Was so annoyed by own mistake(I had the stabbed cloaky hauler in station and everything) that i logged off for a couple of days.
2) Second time I had bought one of the first jackdaws(80 mill+) and was roaming(fitted for kiting). Was reading up something about missile explosion radius, and forgot to keep an eye on overview.
A neuting algos lands on me, and locks me. completely surprised I panic pushes some buttons, but as I can't pull distance I die with him in hull. After that I also logged off for a day or too, so stupid not to read in station or in a safe position.
When ever I loose my pod, i also usually log of for the evening(but it has nothing to do with rage, I am just very tired all of a sudden and i didn't want that pod anyway :D). |

I did let one of my two accounts lapse as CCP seem to think that what was good on Monday is bad on Tuesday and vice versa.
It just gets tedious sometimes.

yesterday,
i had logged in and my old corp had joined an alliance, i hadnt even realised what that intailed, i set off to go grab a few skillbooks and think 'i'll take my new shiny navy drake that i totally shouldn't be flying'
so im flying through caldari space and spot a load of flashy reds as im on my adventures, i think to myself
'crazy ass pilots flying round with their safeties off lol, mad heads' 'hahah silly pilots.'
half hour goes by and as im about to approch a gate and theres a cute stratos heading my way, 'hmm' i think to myself, 'what a nice site scanning ship', then suddenly alarms start going nuts and im wondering where the rats are that are obviously targeting me, keep in mind ive never done Pvp, so it turns out that the strats is targeting me and i just flap as the sheilds on my drake slowly peel away. i activate shield boosters, try warping away then remember i can lock back duh, so as im half way through my shields im trying to lock her up, i realise im doomed by now and activate self destruct and eject as theres a big bright boom where my drake used to be, i warp the hell out of there and dock in a nearby system with my head firmly up my butt.
i look at the kill mail and think 'how the hell can this happen in high sec? so i mail her and ask 'why did you blow up my ship?' to which she replies 'were at war your alliance and my alliance, you were a red flashy lol, fly safe o7.' then it starts sinking in, my alliance? oh man all those red flashies where war targets and me a PvE wannabe is at war with marmite after playing for a month and still suffering from noob syndrome. Then i get mad like ultra butt hurt mad and log out like it's going to erase all thats just happened, either that or start looking for a chat channel that gives therapy.
after a while i went on youtube and watched videos of players getting ganked and other stuff to cheer me up and then logged back in and pulled my pilot out of the corp until it's sorted out or whatever, but looking back it was pretty funny and im slowly getting over it.

I've never really rage quit the game. I have rage logged before on a few occasions. Though normally I just go to a different channel in comms, turn on music and smoke a few cigarettes. I would think the closest time I'd consider I would have rage quit maybe would have been when I lost a nyx. I was busy in real life but I also didn't make an effort to give time to Eve either. Came back a few months later and went back at it. |

That being said, when was the last time you rage quit or at least were like **** it, I am done with EVE for the night because of something that happened?
It has only happened to me a couple of times and last night was one of those nights. Lost 4 ships last night, two to gate camps, one in a plex and one to a ganker while I was on a mission.
So the first ship I lost to a gate camp of like 20 ships. Went back and reshipped, picked a completely different route(looked at map, picked a route with few ships destroyed and all that), died to another gate camp as I was running away from a roaming fleet. Went back and reshipped, picked a route with absolutely no ships destroyed finally make it to my destination and get into a novice only to have an astero decloak while I was literally about to push scan on my d-scan. Points me, I go boom(though at least that fight was close).
So I decide to work on my standings and do a mission. Go to a system with literally one other person in it, jump to 10 k off mission gate, with a worm waiting to greet me. Warp off, wait ten minutes. Warp 100 k off, he is still there, points me and I go boom. That's when I said good night EVE I'll see you later.
Being irritated at my own stupidity makes me do this.
Last time was when i realised I had used the wrong alt to move some blueprints. The blueprints arrived just fine, but on the way back I got careless (and drunk) and herpa-derped and lost the pod... stuffed full of +5% research/manufacturing implants.
Plenty of times before that when I lost ships in fleet due to wrong align point, or even on one particularly memorable occasion, forgetting to activate hardeners (who needs resists anyway amirite?)

I fail torped a newbie in a cruiser ratting lowsec once. He was confused when I died.

Made me bitter about the game for a few days but not really a rage quit. As close as I've ever been to one I guess :) I personally make a point to not honor 1v1s even when I'd win anyway.
I think 1v1s are dumb because I think if you're not willing to do whatever it takes to defeat the other person you shouldn't be shooting them at all and the only people it's reasonable to have a "friendly" engagement with are the people officially affiliated with you via standings or corp/alliance membership. Subsequently whenever I encounter someone who wants to 1v1 I make sure to bring either friends, reps, boosts or some combination thereof.
Hope this helps you understand why some people don't honor 1v1s. |

Lost a Proteus to a LS gate camp due to two stupid things I did; 1/ forgot to travel fit the lows, haven't even fixed the mids 2/ completely screwed up the CovOps cloaking.
Never had a problem like this with my BR...

And eve online, where I managed 0 losses in years of nullbearing on my main, is here. I unsubbed when I bought a combat alt with just 30 million SP (yeah, big mistake, it's obviously stupidly low for eve combat pvp, but how were I supposed to know?) and it turned out that eve combat pvp is as boring mechanic abuse fest as I imagined it would be - I got mortally bored even before losing that caracal, and when I lost it, it was a last drop. |

I don't usually ragequit, but I'm pro at apathyquits.
Last time was when I couldn't find a way to make launcher actually complete installation of another patch and couldn't login. But at the time I couldn't even remember how much of my sub was left and at most I could care about updating skill queue once in a blue moon. I guess it's pity that I wasted quite a bit SP, but oh well.
Long live unlimited skillqueue.

Last time I rage quit was because Angelica Dreamstar made fun of missiles. It made me sad. She said something about "turrets", but I don't know what those are.

Believe it or not, I start losing interest of the game since my teamspeak client crashed and never got fixed, because if you don't have TS basically you can't do any pvp. I tried every solution I could find on internet but with no luck, I started to play other games.

I was somewhere far away from where I wanted to be an my wormhole there and back collapsed, so I started 'walking' back. About half way, I jumped into a gate camp but got out alive, only for the guys who were camping to then start following me and literally making a new camp at every gate.
At some point, I jumped back and forth a couple of times until their dictor couldn't bubble me in time, went to make a safe and logged off for the night after considering self destructing =x |

That being said, when was the last time you rage quit or at least were like **** it, I am done with EVE for the night because of something that happened?
It has only happened to me a couple of times and last night was one of those nights. Lost 4 ships last night, two to gate camps, one in a plex and one to a ganker while I was on a mission.
So the first ship I lost to a gate camp of like 20 ships. Went back and reshipped, picked a completely different route(looked at map, picked a route with few ships destroyed and all that), died to another gate camp as I was running away from a roaming fleet. Went back and reshipped, picked a route with absolutely no ships destroyed finally make it to my destination and get into a novice only to have an astero decloak while I was literally about to push scan on my d-scan. Points me, I go boom(though at least that fight was close).
So I decide to work on my standings and do a mission. Go to a system with literally one other person in it, jump to 10 k off mission gate, with a worm waiting to greet me. Warp off, wait ten minutes. Warp 100 k off, he is still there, points me and I go boom. That's when I said good night EVE I'll see you later.
Dude, you are an even worse EvE player than I am.

I've never rage quit over a ship, it's just a pixel with a pricetag. You might as well view it as a dodgy meal you just ate and then popped out that wasn't quite right (i.e. stop eating filthy kebabs).
It's always other people who enrage, but that's my fault rather than theirs. Like Mr Banner, I'm always angry (and bemused by it) but try to keep it under control. Allowing anyone to pass beyond normal irritation to real fury reeks of defeat, failure and tbh a lack of judgement. Unleashing the beast to... scuttle away giggling tastes like glee and has never failed to be satisfying. And worth it.
I've also taught several small children how to visualise their Hulk transformation and then unleashed them on their parents with full on pant ripping, chest beating and roaring. Works. They won't be asking for a babysitter again, but their kids will always share their sweets.

About to have a nice battle when suddenly, boom, all my shields are gone. Get primaried, die quickly, etc. I look at the kill mail only to realize that the first thing to hit me (and do top damage) was a "friendly" who decided to drop a bomb on the field. |
