Edited by: Vvaren VonSchlegel on 08/07/2008 19:09:50 Tried to take a short-cut through 0.0 to reach a mining Op in my Megathron(it had all mining modules)
It was blown up, but my pod got away for now...
Then I get a shuttle, and autopilot back to where I started and ended up in the gate-camp of the guys that blew up my megathron.
Yep, quite an epic fail.

I'd just moved to 0.0 and was wandering around in a vexor not really doing anything.
Landed on a bubbled gate. :(

My original character was flying her Iteron 3 (named "Xetic BPO Hauler") to VNG to switch to a combat ship. Jumped into VNG after corp chat said the system was clear. Warped toward the station. Corp chat warned of big uglies coming back. (Can't even remember who we were fighting, but it pre-dated the formation of BoB.) Cloaked the ship, headed toward the station at 15 m/s*. Enemies warped away again toward battle. Uncloaked the ship to get to the station a little faster. Enemy fleet came back. Nowhere to run, unable to re-cloak. Taken down by 20 BS and assorted smaller ships. Didn't manage to warp the pod out before getting hit.
My only comment in local after re-cloning: "Gee, d'ya think you brought enough guys?"

I was on a roaming op in 0.0 with my new alliance at the time, Star Fraction, and about 40 jumps from home I got blown outta my shiny new t1 frigate. Managed to get my pod out of danger, but realized that 40 jumps, most of which was through zerosec, pre-warp to zero, would be a) incredibly boring and b) a very unlikely trip to survive anyway. So I asked someone in my gang to do me the honors and give me a trip home--Jade Constantine's Crow martyred me. I then proceeded to post the lossmail on the SF boards without thinking. Amusingly enough it's still there. ____________________ GM Sunshine > oops Neurotica > Hate to see a GM in your gang say 'oops'

Actually, it was Otsela that got me as well. Wasn't selling mex though then ... someone had a Logic book there up for sale at 3.5 MIL instead of the 4.5 in Hento : ) ain't temptation a b**** but then who wouldn't be tempted to save 1 mil for only 1 more jump? Jumping in I recall wondering what several red blinkies with skull icons meant and even tried to turn around as both red and skulls tend to indicate a warning . Well, I kissed that Merlin and my pod goodbye that day ... thankfully didn't have any implants yet.

Kresh Vladir got me in jita of all places during an empire war. Two days later I ran smack into Arrgs down near Oursulaert but survived his geddon somehow.
Fun times back then.

I think everyone makes that mistake. Once.
First one with this character--alt-tabbed away for just a little too long while on a hugely boring hauler run, had the rotten luck to run into an Onyx at a gate. The "pick something on overview as ship goes, machinegun warp-to button" doesn't work for some reason. I took small consolation that all my cargo was in a GSC, which got destroyed. --------------- ""Minimum collateral damage" and "Entire star system" do not belong in the same sentence." |

Edited by: Darkeen on 09/07/2008 00:30:30 Dropped into an asteroid belt in a 0.4 or 0.5 (cant rememebr which) looking for rats and got podded by one of the top 8 guys. Well, if your going to get podded, get done by the top! He still has a bounty of over 7.5 mill isk.
if I meet him again, I'd at least try to ask for advise on what he did, etc.. Regards,

Clicking to warp to a gate, with a gate camp I'd reported myself less than 2 minutes before hand. THEN, when I lsot my ships to Snipers I stayed around to watch how the other guys were doing. Kekeke.
Ah I was such a nub. ---

When I was a very young EVE nublet I decided early on that I wanted to work for the Angel Cartel. So I loaded up my Probe (Yes, a Probe), and flew off to Curse to run courier missions for the Salvation Angels.
I actually completed 2 missions before I got my firsthand education in the concept of a 'Gate Camp'.

Originally by: soldieroffortune 258 uh, the first time i got podded i was en route from minmatar to caldari space, i was kinda new, probably two or three weeks only, and hadnt heard about gate camps, had my shiny new vexor cruiser (w/ plat insurance thank god) and got podded in the molden heath area, im not sure of the exact system, but it was around the teonusude/ gelfiven area, (maybe rancer??? not sure though) but yeah, thats when i first learned the hard way about gate camps
Did the exact same thing in a Kestrel (fully insured).

Originally by: Grimpak back in 2004 by a killer clowns from outer space gatecamp back in a entry point to syndicate.
first time I set AP thru fastest route to get from verge vendor to placid.
last time I made the mistake of using an itty 3 for doing such trip
Same here, they got my first pod, too. Or was it m0o? don't remember. Back then torps were proximity fused and doing area damage, which made them the insta-pod-killing weapon of choice, to use when the target was about to die... ------------------------------------------

Station camp in Tama.
Thought I'd risk it, undocked, saw a dude in a Drake chewing up some wrecks... did a runner and escaped.
Had to warp out of my mission and back to the station, the Drake was still there, thought nothing of it. I repaired and undocked when I realise the one drake has turned into 3 Megathrons.
Safe to say I didn't last long, and the podding happened so fast I didn't even realise till I ended up being back in Todaki.
Good times. Thankfully I didn't have many implants and my clone was up to date. Don't remember the dude who did the podding, but I know it was some German corp who proudly state they don't speak English, so i guess the ransom was out of the question.

I'm not actually sure in what system I got podded the first time.. I think it was in that 0.0 entry point somewhere in gallente lowsec... I think the system was called something like M0-something.
Me and a friend thought we'd go kill someone in our uber cruisers and found that they were not so uber after all.
