I was invited to a private chat group and everyone in there was so helpfull, even more helpfull than the rookie help channel!!! And one of the random players in there who was helping me out sent me 1mil ISK out of no where!!! And get this, they were pirates. I see on the forums, people talk bad about pirates, but these pirates were VERY helpfull!!! But then again, while they were helping me in chat, at the same time I believe they were flying around in their fleet looting players they killed 
Can confirm the part that not every pirate or griever is actually a bad person at all.
When I started out in EVE I joined a player corp who didn't tell me how war-mechanics worked, so I though: I'm in 0.9 space, who can touch me. Not long after I was blown up, podded and back in station. Problem is that the guys who we were at war with camped the station and killed me every time I undocked. After couple of kills one of them contacted me and explained me how war etc worked in high-sec and they even refunded every single ship I lost and some extra money. So although some people look like complete deuce-bags, generally they too have a good side.
I also have friends who went to low-sec in their first week and got blown up by others, what they did is contact the guy who killed them and ask for advice. Generally the people who kill you will give you advice on what you did wrong, how you can improve yourself and how EVE works in general. The only thing you have to do for such thing, as mentioned before, is stay polite. Don't rant on someone who killed you, be friendly and ask advice, usually they are willing to give it if you are polite and friendly. They usually do this for 1 reason, if people hate EVE, they leave which means less targets to shoot at, if people get good advice and like EVE they stick around and eventually might come back and give a good fight.
Personally I rather give advice to people to give them a good view on EVE so they stick around even if it means they will become my enemy eventually, as this means more nice and good fights to be had around EVE.
