My first courier mission, my agent stated "Make sure you deliver to [insert station name here] and be sure that it doesn't get into the wrong hands". I couldn't figure out how to be certain my "special delivery" didn't get into the wrong hands. I was stumped which resulted in mission failure.

Were to begin?
Shield tanking a mega with passive shield hardners and no skills to help them. Lows filled with BCUs to help the two heavy missile launchers and a few damage mods for the projectile guns I had in the highs. That was a ship I thought up and tried before I discovered tanking :)
Mining veldspar thinking I would be rich if I did it with an indy while I watched the telly.

Being terrified of flying into stations, planets and gates because I thought I'd crash and explode.
Planning to head towards Guristas space in my condor (I didn't know that 0.0 even existed at the time) with the plan of single handedly toppling them all. I was actually half-way to 0.0 when I was saved by my first corp, who recruited me on the spot after hearing what I was planning on doing. (on a side note, space felt so much bigger and unique back then - I can remember more about the systems I was in during my first month than I can in the entire time I've spent in eve since, even that stupid system I was recruited in that I only ever entered once (to my knowledge)).
Quitting my first corp because they were joining an alliance that had a policy whereby if you popped a roid mining in 0.0 they'd pod you (superstition to do with roid respawning I believe) - I wasn't having anything to do with anyone who would POD another player! That's griefing! :S
Thinking that all 0.0 was in the east, because that's the direction you had to head in to reach my first alliance's territory.
Thinking I was invincible because my Caracal I took on my first roam into 0.0 had about 2.5k shields. Despite not having any instas, MWDs, ABs, WCS' or a clue, I actually managed to survive for about half a week (although that had more to do with being lucky and not running foul of any hostiles than my godly 2.5k shields).

On the first night I played I set the alarm clock and got up in the middle of the night just to change skill. I thought I would have to redo it if I changed to something else before the skill was completed.

1. Mining in Amsen ( starter system 1.0 )
When that guy gets any closer to ( un-anchored ) secure can iam going to blast him out of the sky.
2. Sitting in a pod in Amsen ( starter system 1.0 )
iam quiting this game. That guy and his 20 friends were shooting me right out of space and i will never be able to recover from this loss
3. Sitting in a new Bantam in Amsen at the gate ( starter system 1.0 )
HA !!! i remember that guy, now hes alone and i will have my payback...
I still did not understand how his friends knew i would be coming and how they cloaked.
And what do you mean with CONCORDED ????
4. What do you mean i have to ACTIVATE my shieldbooster ?????
5. Blackbirds are the ultimate ships. They look like a prehistoric Millenium Falcon and can fit Cruise Missle launcher's.
6. Kestrels can fit cruise missle launchers aswell ...
7. 2 Kestrels own a Blackbird when fitted with cruise missle launchers
8. OMG i will never recover from this loss of my CM fitted Blackbird
9. ECM / ECCCM ??? Useless junk .. i have no place for that on my new Blackbird .. because i need the slots for my 3 Shield boosters ( what do you mean i need to activate it )

Thinking that shield-tanking Amarr ships made sense
Thinking that Beams > Pulses
Thinking that 1M ISK was a lot of money
Being devastated after losing my first dessy to a war target in empire
Putting at least 2 stabs on everything
Thinking that drones were ghey because I thought you had to select each one individually to assigne them targets
Using shield + armor + hull reppers on the same ship
Thinking that putting 2 heat sinks was dumb because of the stacking penalties
Thinking that DCUs were a useless mod
Hmm... lots of fitting-related stuff
Anyways, IBTL

First time I saw my Brother playing eve I thought a station was attacking his Velator.
On my first night avoiding anything that moved because I didn't I was protected in 1.0 space.
Also on my first night, being affraid to leave the starter system to complete a newbie mission because my Velator might get blown up.
Eventualy plucking up the courage to go to the next door system and complete the newbie mission, and getting lost doing so, so I opened my map and chose a system with a cool name to go live in.
Thinking 2 battleships on a gate in low-sec were not a threat because they were 100km away...
ahh good times

Ahhh what an excellent thread!!
Back in May 2003...[on my original character not this one]
Born in Cistuvaert, Verge Vendor, took me 5 days to figure out how to leave the system and join my m8 down in Heimater. No autopilot in those days, it was a long trip.
Ninja mining 'all' the high end roids in 0.5 > 0.1 in my Probe frigate, dodging the rats, eyes glued on local and anyone dodgy looking, scraping together the odd refine of something nice.
Then they nerfed the roids to hell  I quit for 6 months.
When i came back i mined Omber for 3 months straight and, not satisfied with the pathetic cargo capacity of my hauler, i used to painstakingly position giant secure containers in the belts, precisely the correct distance from the roids so that i could sit there in my thorax 5km from the roids and transfer to these cans. The precise positioning took nearly as long as the mining but of course i justified it to myself by saying that no bugger ore thief would steal my omber. Then a m8 told me that if you jettisoned your cargo hold you could transfer 27,500m3 of ore into it instead of 6x3900m3 per can. I wasn't paticularly pleased with this revelation as i should have been...i was bloody furious at all the wasted hours i had spent with those damn giant cans!
There was much gnashing of teeth!
In fact i'm still pist off about it!

2 thoughts really..
Firstly I insisted on naming my ships after me ex-girlfriends thinking I'd only ever have 3 max. I've still got a shuttle called 'Wiggy'
Secondly 'wtf did I leave my ship??' and going to every station in a rough effort to find my lost bantam. I never did find it until I found the 'assets' button.

got my first mission from security division, eliminate drones in belts. and I was...... actually FLYING to the 'belt'. I thought the belt is the 'belt looking stars' in the space background, and got full speed flying to it. yes, it took me forever to that belt and failed up the mission.
i was so happy that our corp had a POS, and ran into it, wondering, ok, how can i use it? when and how can i use what made by whom at where? O_o

lol yeah i made that mistake on my first character as well, didn't on (this) my second character and i still find myself amazed that thsi character now has more SPs.
although the charisma based skills does help me get more cash for rewards when i actually bother to do missions, which is rare.

Haha, memories...
Some of the things I remember thinking.
0.0 is a big dark scary place overrun by and evil force called bob(hey, all I ever saw anywhere was "bob this. bob that" never knowing what "bob" was until atleast a month or two later) and evil pirates and scary people... and that I'd never ever ever be able to nor ever want to venture into it.
Then there's the time I realized "omg I don't NEED to keep a mining laser on my ship when I use it to shoot rats" 1 crappy AC and basic miner on a vigil = my first "combat ship"... oh boy.
when I thought I needed long and short range turrets on my ship at all times to be effective... lead to poor thrasher performance.
when I thought my thrasher was tough enough to take on dual angel cruiser spawns by itself in .3
:/ I lost a lot of thrashers, and destroyers in general for that matter, that way.
someone reminded me, put a lot of charisma into my attributes cause I thought it'd give me better market deals and communication options(wtf was I thinking)
also ignored the learning skills for several months cause I though they took too long...big mistake.
Fearful of leaving my starter station that I'd get lost and never find my way home. Making 1 jump a large voyage for me. Hey, I thought I'd get lost.
