I was doing a lvl 4 in my T2 fitted Mega, and suddenly my armor was gone, I couldn't get enough speed to warp out because of the 6? webbers, and *poof* I had 1 mega less. So I pod back to the nearest station buy a new Mega (it was insured so no biggy) bought some missing T2 stuff, Hammerhead 2's and went back in to get my stuff of my wreck. Barely made it but, I made it. Went to a station, put the missing T2 stuff back on and warp back in to finish the mission, and loose it within 1-2 minutes.
Only this time I had forgotten to insure it.
So, after some time cooling down, I buy a third Mega, T2 stuff, Hammerhead 2's, warp back in to get the loot of my 2nd Mega, make a few bookmarks and head back to the station to fit the missing T2 stuff. Once again I go back in to finish this mission, and almost loose my 3d Mega of that day.
Then finally I realized I forgot to check the mission on eve-survival.org and read that when I went in for the first time, I shot the trigger first releasing the second wave, right on top of me, while the first was (minus the trigger) still intact.
Told my agent he could stick this mission... you know where.

Edited by: Quincunx on 21/07/2008 11:20:39 I do think it's kinda funny that nine out of ten claim that they were drunk while being dumb. ;)
But, good reads!

dumbest thing I've done in EVE?
-did the "all eggs in one basket" thing with an industrial, but back then I was a noob, so that slides... -also did the "jump into BS without support skills and lost it on a lvl3" one, same deal, noob. -sniping in a Rokh with T1, but that actually works at times...
oh wait
-joined FW.
Yep, thats the dumbest thing I've done in EVE so far. -

Originally by: Yevgeny Bazarov I just put 3 core defence field purgers on my cormorant instead of the drake they were meant for Now, I'm left with no isk and a still-crappy Drake
So, I want to hear some other people's stories about dumb things they've done, to make me feel better while I grind up the isk for a new set of rigs
What are the biggest mistakes you've ever made in Eve?
What you have done probably saved that drake from a life of stupidity. Now you are free to active tank it and to fit more damage mods in the lows. Have fun. :)

4 years ago:
I flew through 0.0 in a Iteron MKV, semi-asleep. Suddenly I wake up because of an loud explosion, my shield gone by 2/3 in one blow. I think: "You $º&"º%& won¦t get my precious minerals!" and hit self-destruct.....a few seconds later I realise that the attacker is a Rifter, fittet with cruise missles (yes, there were times you could fit a cruise missle in a standart launcher). WTF? Whatever, I lock him and manage to get him into structure with my mighty 75mm railgun! (Thx to a scrambler and webber in the medium slots). I am close to my first kill in an industrial ship, already laughing at this guy... then the forgotten self destruct kicks in.........

Fit a 100m domi in high-sec to go fight a war. undock, see a red in my overview for the first time, afk in a rookie ship, and I think "wth, a kill is a kill". target him, click on weapons, get the "dangerous act, bla bla" message, but say to myself "we're at war with them, why would I get this message? must be a bug". fire away, get blown up by concord, then someone in alliance chat tells me we're NOT at war with that corp, just have them set to red, and that you can only fire at flashing reds. re-dock, Fit a 100m domi in high-sec to go fight a war.
followed by recently losing a 4b mission ship in a mission, with no good excuse (booze/cat/wife aggro/baby crying). just plain ole "woops".

While doing logistics moves to stage for the opening of the Drone Regions, I opened my map to look up a system in our new home. Didn't remember the sytem name, just that it was next door to dn58. So I set my autopilot there so that I could see the system and surrounding stars. Gave the information to my corpie then about 10 min later....
Fully-loaded freighter jumps into Taisy on autopilot on its way to deep 0.0. Needless to say it didn't make it.

Years ago was in a badger and went to a 0.4 system by mistake; met a single BS gatecamp (there was no warp to zero then), managed to turn the ship around and dock (only got down to 2/3 structure.) Two stargates in the system, thought I clicked on the other one, didn't; didn't escape the second time. Keyboard error or no keyboard present. Press F1 to continue. |

My dumbest moment:
I find an implant during a mission and sell it for 30m on the market (i was a few weeks into the game). I buy a nice shinny ferox thinking wow this ship should be great. And that early into the game i can barely fly it but to a noob i think i'm all tough.
We get war decced so i fly it on over to help out only to realize it's not as tough as i thought...Command ship vs my very noobish ferox = swift death...i think i even got podded too because of the shock factor of my new expensive ship vanishing before my eyes
Ahh the days of not knowing any better...

I was doing my recon thing in XZH against The Reckoning, I kept seeing some mining barges on scan, but not at any belts. Finally got them narrowed down to a plex about 1600km in a random direction from Belt 1, spent over an hour slowboating towards them, finally got on grid and stuck around to scout their haulers/overwatch.
After a few rat spawns I finally decided it was a good time to take them out. Uncloaked, popped the first, locked up second and had him into structure when a 3rd warps in, lock him up and finish off the 2nd, killed the unlucky 3rd and recloaked... a good days work, until I thought it'd be a good idea to loot the wrecks, just as I get within 2km off the 2nd wreck, in warps an inty, I can't cloak cos I'm too close to the wreck so he locks me up, I deploy drones to keep him running and lock him back, 3 damps don't break his lock, but combined with me running the opposite direction to his orbit I get him to stray outside of lock range and I hit cloak... ahhhhh, safe at last! But my drones!, my precious drones.. I know, I'll recall them as I cloak... fine until the drones get back within 2km and uncloak me again.. just as the inevitable Rapier lands :(
The stupidity of going for the wrecks with 30+ hostiles in local was bad enough, then the stupidity of my own drones uncloaking me.... but none of that compares to the fact.... that the mining barges were ONLY BLOODY RETRIEVERS!!!

paying for my first month of EVE-O
Just kiddin, i haven't regretted a single moment
Well i did regret dragging my NH into a pvp battle with 3 BS and several others... offcourse i died a horrible death but after that, nobody questioned my loyalty, nor my willingness to fight for my corp ever again... Sadly i could not say the same for some of my other corpmates, nor it's leadership, which were nowhere to be seen most of the war
oh well... i fought, i lost a few expensive ships and then quit the corp hehe... still trying to figure out what to do next. _______________________________________________________ CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!!

Went into to battle against an experienced merc in a T2 fitted Myrmidon in my new Brutix with a corp mate in an omen who happened to be on as wing man. Of course not realizing that the corp mate was a noob who just got his omen and only had small laser 3 skill trained at the time. Needless to say after a rather interesting hard fought battle I was warping away in my pod. Lesson learned screw the noobs
