Don't worry, CCP hasn't yet grasped the concept of the door either.

When I was a noob, wormholes were brand new, I joined a corp that promptly got wardecced so me and a couple of buddies went and hid away in Evati, got popped & GF'd by a member of The Bastards within the 2nd week of playing Pirate

That was my third attempt at Eve btw, the game had always intrigued me I just couldn't get my head round it the first couple of times. 3 years down the line I'm still playing and will be for a good while yet.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

When I was a noob my buddy convinced me we could put up a faction tower he'd PLEXed in a dead-end high-sec system through two jumps of low-sec. I asked if we should scout ahead, having just read a ton of material on how people make their way around the map, and he said not to worry. So we packed up a pair of Itty IVs and headed out. We were promptly destroyed on the second gate in. Pretty sure the tower dropped too.

Another time I was travelling to our corp's new home near Rens and I made my way through Amamake just fine. Thinking this was a prime route, I tried again a day later and died on the way through.

I did a lot of dying back then. I still do a lot of dying.

A professional astro-bastard was not available so they sent me.

This is truth, I'm sure.

I mined. Was pretty bad at it. Then I got quite good at it. Realized my corp's CEO was the worst high-sec carebear ever. Seriously. Worst. Ever.
