When I lose a ship in pvp, I don't really care, that was a strong possibility the moment I exited the station with it.
When I lose a NPC ship to pirates, I'm ****ed, but I don't show it. But I'll be ready for any opportunity to get even with them.

I usually say, "gf," in local (assuming it wasn't a blob gank .) That is, unless someone starts to smack me, in which case, I've got my advanced smack talk skill to 5.
It just took me 29 years to train.

I am like, i f'ed up and have paid the price. GJ pirates/opposition and send them a letter of congratulation or asking what i did wrong. When i die from NPC's my reaction is much less friendly but i still don't throw a hissy fit. I was glad to see pirates adapting to warp to 0 with warp-in gatecamps, got ****** by a three man one. Jared valdez and 2 others. Player kills, especially in a rifter or thrasher hardly bother me at all apart from the  feeling you have when your ship dies. How do you react?
Only takes a few moments to realise if your winning a fight or going to lose, if im going to lose and know theres no way out of it, then plan a) is to find that planet or roid belt, click it and keep smashing WARP on the overview for when your ship goes bang. I feel bad before i go bang as opposed to when i go bang.
Usually on ventrilo these days i calmly say "ah well, im boned", once upon i time i used to be clawing my desk screaming "Noooooooooooooooooooo!, W**kers!!!"
Fact.
for me, its not so much my own reactions when i die, because im the luckiest and stupidest person alive. its other peoples reactions towards my actions that are interesting.
like, for instance. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TAKING ON AN ECM NOS DOMI AT A GATE 1v1 IN AN EOS?". responses are usually just like "why the hell not?". and as for being the luckiest person alive, said domi client crashed when i hit 50% hull and i managed to turn my damage control back on and warp out, only to have had a guy frmo my corp randomly warp to that gate in a machariel out of his own random free will and arrive right as the domi logged back on, to finish off his structure.

Depends on the situation. 1v1 to small gang vs 1 I would say gf in local if Im in a combat ship, if Im in an industrial, well I just say nothing, killing haulers doesn't merit kudos. Fleet ops and blobs I just go refit a new ship, we're all there to kill and I'll leave it to the FC the hand out the kudos after the battle.

When I lose a ship, I react by starting to warp out.
Yeah.
After I get my pod out, I start talking in local. I tend to say something like "smack smack smack, mega hate, more smack, corp threat, petition threat" or something like that, along with the standard "Good fight!" but sometimes I like to jazz it up, so I say "Mega Sweet Monkey Cheese Fight!" ... or something equally random.

Depends if it was my fault. If it was my fault I get a bit ****ed and usually log off for a bit if it wasnt I grab another ship from the station or go buy a new one.

When I lose a ship..
I drive rusty nails into my prong, and run around the house naked covered in blue jello, shrieking, and chasing the cat.
Errr, no.
I actually never engage in convo or local, unless they initiate it, and if its just smack, then nothing. |

I normally start swearing on vent for about a minute.
Then I tell everyone how much I hate this ****ing game.
Look at my deathmail for another minute...just staring. 
Swear some more on vent.
Then log of in disguist.
It's sort of a ritual I have now.

If I'm killed by an actual pirate, one is a lovely yellow or flashing red, well, I don't like it, but I get over it. If I'm killed by NPC's I'm an idiot and have nothing to complain about.
But, if I'm flying a barge and some twit with a 2.7 sec status pops into the belt and ganks me just because he can, well, that angers me. I usually call him a coward in local, because, after all, he is a coward to do that.
I don't mind PvP, it's a PvP game. But lame ganking is stupid and bad for the game. CCP should do something about it to make more consequences.

I fly Frigates and tend to take on larger ships most of the time. I can afford to lose my ship several hundred times over, so it doesn't bother me when I die now and again. Besides, when my ship and fittings cost no more than 1,000,000 ISK, I won't hesitate if I have the opportunity to take on something that costs five times as much, or more. All I avoid are drone ships.
When I pop, I congratulate the pilot. If I win the fight, I also congratulate the pilot on a good fight. It's usually fairly close since I rarely take on anything smaller than a Cruiser.
True story... popped a Ferox in my Punisher(solo). I'm reckless when I don't have much to lose. Couldn't do that again if I tried, though.

three stages when i do eventually get blown up:
1. sulk for 5 minutes
2. get angry
3. buy new ship and hunt down the person who laid the last blow.

I usually swear over TeamSpeak then I post the deathmail on the KB and swear some more, then log my alt on and buy a new ship then swear about the prices in rens. Afterwards I go and loose another ship and repeat the process.

There are only 2 instances so far when I got nailed, as a tackler and as a indy for POS refuel...In the first instance its a very sweet death because usually id be able to hold down the pirate long enuogh for friends to arrive. In the second instance I keep calling myself an idiot and congratzing the pirate  . My fault for lettin it happen.

As a friend of mine would say, go die in a car crash.
Why does it make any difference what his sec status is? Flashy red or yellow just means it's not the first time he's done it.

Let me see...
I lost four ships in 30 minutes to CONCORD because of a flag bug after shooting a TV.
I lost a ship shooting a gate from turrets.
I died while accidentally flying my pod into 0.0 cause I clicked on the wrong destination and Strangey shot my pod. I was returning from a mission after losing my ship.
I died while attacking BoB - took 9 hours to die - cause their better players were out. So eventually an NPC shot my ship, I got a shuttle and after the 3rd battle I got shot and podded.
I lost a ship in COSMOS at the Skeleton Comet in Deltole.
I lost 2 ships and got podded once in a war with Decisive Outcomes to Lukkat the Pirate. Made a video about Lukkat because I wanted to meet him - and then he podded me. So really I did it backwards...
Lukkat the Pirate video
I still would like to shoot Strangey cause at least in that podding I was minding my own business and he shot me just to get a killmail cause he WAS at that point a Griefer and may still be one.
None of the other pilots I have had the pleasure of controlling have ever been killed. I guess it is because I am not very cautious...

For me, it depends a lot on how I died. I'm getting to the point where unless I'm in a battleship/t2 cruiser, most of the time (depending on how much is in my wallet) I'll engage nearly anything short of a blob just to see how much I can take out before I go down.
When I first started (I started out carebear, as nearly everyone else in eve did *I think*) I was mega ****ed when I lost a ship. Now I always try and learn from it, it's a short term sacrifice for long term benefit kind of thing.
As long as I don't die to lag or something like that, I'll react by talking on vent/IG to some people about the fight, going over it a few times in my head, what I did wrong, what they did right etc.
My views are my own etc etc |
