Veld roids are fast to clean out - why not simply mine one and jettison the ore to make an empty hole to sit in?

WTF i didnt even get my ship back when i got stuck when jumped into Amarr and just had a black screen that a GM had to move me from..
I had bad sec status and concord killed me while i was in this black screen..
But since i was a pirate i didnt get anything back..
Notice this was before the JIP was at the gates and you could travle with 2 mwd in empire even if you was an outlaw

Roids have a radius... I've seen some Velds in lower sec which had a radius of 20km.... when I bookmarked them and warped in on them (15km), I was like 25km away from the center of the roid and couldn't get closer to it, showing the distance to the center of the roid, with the roid hanging like a big moon over the now very small looking Apoc... still it didn't last longer than like 30 minutes against my miners

Originally by: Alowishus So, like everyone, I hate giant roids that slow your ship to a crawl. Tonight I had gotten done killing a 750k rat and as I went to get the loot I got stuck between two roids. Bah... happens all the time. But this time a spawn appeard, a 500k, a couple cruisers and scrambling inties, right on top of me. I started moving AWAY from the spawn, deeper into the belt, and toward an object I could warp to. I hit my MWD. Little did I know that even with my MWD my top speed would only be 4m/s. I tried changing direction, by this time I was scrambled. With the MWD running my cap was 1/4th capacity, I hit my dual large repairers. I was able to last for a little bit, still scrambled and still not able to move. Finally my cap was gone and they were into my structure, seconds later it was over.
Now I realize I'm mostly to blame. I could have had some drones out. I could have gone back to the station and gotten a frig (knowing the loot was in such a precarious place), hell I could have even ignored the loot and gone to the next belt. I also could have not used my MWD as much and had more cap for my repairers, or fit close range weapons for the interceptors... The list goes on and on.
I've had the ship for a long time and made it out of a lot of bad situations, I'm bummed about it, but I'm not complaining. I know it's my fault I lost my ship. I'm just sharing my story so others can learn from my classic rookie mistakes.
You should had put your MWD offline for the extra cap and cap researge, and concentrated on killing the ennemy instead of wasting 3/4 of your cap while losing shield and structure.

Well, thats bull. I've lost ships for that all the time. I've lost ships when the station bug had me in a black screen for 2 minutes. I've had the stargate not working. The latter two the GM's just said they couldnt find a problem... yet you get reimbursed for getting stuck on a roid?
