We had some new players from our old bf2 clan wanting to give the eve trial a go. So my mates thought it would be good to make a trial account team to play with them and teach them some ****. Trial gank team type thing.
Problem was noone else in our group bothered so I spent my time smack talking and getting ppl to duel me, it was quiet fun but hard to find combatants. I ended up in jita due to the masses of ppl and thinking surely someone will fight. Quite a task actually, not many would unless i smack talked it up a bit. Anyway in this local smack-banter i said that if ppl beat me they could pod me. I was then informed you cannont pod in empire [i been in 0.0 since end of my first week in eve so i actually didnt even know that}. Anyway, that got me thinking, can you pod someone in empire before getting concorded.
I built up a thrasher with gyros, sensor boosters and tech II arty and 1x rocket launcher.
Now dont get me wrong im not a griefer, i just wanted to see if i could pop a pod. So i jump in the thrasher and sit outside of the main station in Jita.
I wait for someone to exit in a pod...
i wait.... i wait.. i wait...
I wait more and go and get stoned.. come back.. wait more and more..
Then low and behold, my overview shows a nice shiney pod exiting the station!!
Afer all that waiting i was pumped, i didnt check info or nothing, i frantically fired up all my modules and then proceed to target the pod.
It targets and kaboom off goes my volley, hurtling towards the poor unsuspecting pod.
At the same time concord come in and blast me to bits.
The dust settles and im sitting there and there is no sign of the pod. Im not sure if i had taken it out or not. I then check my flashing mail icon..

Woot!! got the pod!! I then check the players name out, do a show info.
Its a young toon, so i think its just some alt, i check agent standings to verify and to my horror i see agent standings, quite a few, yup it was a new player and it was his main. By looking at the standings he had rather enjoyed his carebearing up till that fateful podding. Been around just long enough he probably had some implants from his tutorial early missions etc.
He disconnected instantly after the podding and never logged back in.
I sent an eve mail asking him to contact my main but yeah to this day he hasnt logged back in so assume he quit for good.
I truly felt horrible at the time and really guilty for destroying some new nubs life.
