Outside of my account, I think my biggest loss in EVE was the loss of nerve that stopped me from deploying my Nidhoggur in combat. Now that fat rusty ************ just sits in Intaki being a 1 billion ISK lump of nothing useful. The last time we used it for anything worthwhile was when we used it to quickly transport all our stuff back home after we hastily evacuated everything in our wormhole into Amarr space. So yeah, the most use my carrier has been in the last year was as a glorified hauler with a ship maintenance bay and a jumpdrive.

In terms of actual ships, I tend to seriously dislike losing battleships.

I managed to lose two Carriers in two days. One was to drunkenly insisting I could tank a friends doomsday. In my defense, I would have, if I had picked the right damage type ("Wait...Erebus DD is Thermal?!").

One of my losses was in my first week of playing EvE. I was just chilling in my tormentor mining some rocks, drinking some beer while waiting for my can to get full. After all was done I warped to station to pick op my brand new sigil so I could haul my ore back. Unfortunately a SB and a 'Cane flipped my can when I warped back in. At the time I didn't know anything about aggression and stuff like that. So I was like: **** them! I get my ore back. And was rather happy when I got everything nice and safe in my cargo bay. 2 seconds later there was a bright flash.

My biggest loss was a T2 fitted harbinger on a lvl 3 mission... gotta love lag.
