Especially when you're carrying stuff in your hold. It just makes it that much tastier.

I trust there is a killmail to go with this snippet of a story.

I killed a pod on autopilot a couple of days ago. In lowsec.

Must have been a very smart fellow.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

No, Auto piloting hulks is a wise and noble move

I means that some of these miners will move on to other things, keeping the mineral prices nice and high.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Or maybe you just keep auto-piloting in exhumers until they're buffed into polarises. Blink

Blood Jumps are usually quicker when you self destruct rather than looking for and than auto-piloting into a camp.

Wish I had mine (long time ago), one day during a 0.0 roam in enemy sov we found an Hulk:

- autopiloting in 0.0 (wtf!)

- with BPOs in the cargohold (wtf2!)

I'm confused as to whether this is a story, or simply a general warning. Either way, sound advice I guess.

Doesn't really matter where ... autopiloting in a pod is a stupid thing to do.
