I thought I would write something to help new players wanting to travel around in slow expensive ships but too lazy to actually have someone scouting for them or checking the map.
1. set your ap
2. fit plates, extenders and passive hardners
3. always warp to 0
4. if there is someone on the gate waiting for you, QUICKLY CLOSE YOU CLIENT (CTRL+Q) BEFORE YOU UNCLOAK !!
5. log back after 15-30 min, if there are still bad people in local quickly log again (!!!) before you exit warp and you will be perfectly fine
These easy steps will guarantee your safety when travelling around, I hope it helped.
Safe travels folks o/

Flamebaiting & trolling 4tl.
It might be a bit of a troll post, maybe, but can you deny a good log is the best way to make you almost invulnerable in 0.0?
What I typed probably *is* the best way to survive in 0.0 with the current tools ingame.
I'd like to remind you logging is perfectly kosher for ccp and anyone is allowed to do it.

Sad thing is people actually do that... :(
Well no one likes logging. If they do it its because it does work best than anything else (stabs, mwds, jammers).
Sticky?

ibtl? (trolling)
And why is it trolling? Do you know a better way to survive in 0.0 in a battleship? Serious question.
This guide might look like a joke but its actually true.

No if's or but's about it , your guide to newer players is lame . What your saying is the best way to enjoy the game is not even play it , cos' thats what pressing Ctrl+Q means .
I might get flamed for this but I don't reckon new players should be flying solo around 0.0 with expensive ships in the first place , UNLESS they join a large 0.0 based corp that can replace ships , travel in groups ect. And by new players I do mean new in the sense someone who has never played EVE before , not some 2 day old alt .
When I started playing I stayed in empire for a few months , learn how to play the game and what was what then went to 0.0 and not before doing my homework , thats what you should be telling people to do . And surely encouraging people to log isn't right ? yes logging to go sleep and stuff is perfectly ok , telling people to log when they risk something ? well.....
New as in, new to 0.0, but this works for everyone tbh.
What I am saying is if you wanna fly your battleship thru 0.0 risk free simply put as much hp buffer on and log when a gate is camped. It works 99% - the only time your ship will be killed before 60 second elapsed is when you run into a BIG camp or gank squad but all the small pirates and solo roamers cannot touch you *at all*.
Lame? It is legal ccp knows about it and does nothing, means they approve it. Now they boosted hp by 25% and still aggro/log timer is the same. Maybe this is to encourage new players into 0.0 that they keep the ctrl+q "tool"?
I am still sure this advice is welcome for many, altho they might not reply here for fear of being abused/flamed.

100% Lame and 100% True
Exactly.

This thread is funny.
Actually just having a scout would save you the the bother of having to log off for probably hours. 
yep because sitting in the previous system now that the new recon probe lunchers are seeded doesnt mean you will have to log anyway, nope
