Sometimes it obviously takes some events to finally take decisions. I am playing EVE since 2008, just 1-2h per week as real life is still some kind of important :).

Now I just learned that a fully armored (2 shield extenders) Tayra with 600 MIO ISK freight (my ship and freight of course,) can be blown out of space in INARO (a 0.8 high sec system!!!!!) with just one shot from a 1400mm canon of some player playing EVE sind November this year.

How - for god's sake - can something like this happen in HIGH SEC space. I was even flying the route coming from Jita "in manual", meaning flying from gate to gate by clicking it myself. So NO autopilot. The moment my Tayra got visible because of warping to the next gate exploded, releasing my pod. The guy started shooting at my pod also but that moment I hit warp and was not destroyed.

But - again - how can this happen in HIGH SEC space? I think CCP could balance something like this. Anybody an idea?

Well - maybe off to Star Citizen in the near future, there I can at least blame loosing my ship on my bad flying skills :)

Working as intended. Highsec is not safe, it is "safer" at best.

That's an even dumber trolling attempt than the last one of that other guy. The mindless zombies will still fall for it though.

Also: lose. Not "loose". Stupid.

You have been playing Eve for 5 years and this is news to you.

It is time for you to leave.

Goodbye, thanks for the entertainment.

I wouldn't have tried that jump, but maybe it's just me.

There's real reasons why your Eve character doesn't do /dance.

Once you undock you are not safe anywhere in EvE, that's the way it has always been. Get it through you head, CCP intended for this type of gameplay and still support it.

People are still hauling 500M worth cargo in puny industrials, Shocked that is outrageous.

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

Nice. Perhaps, the ship carried even had an emotional value exceeding mere cost in isk.
That is nice.

Luckily there are fine people willing to give up their valuable time to teach them why this is a bad idea.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

You seem to have been transporting stuff for an alt. Next time (if there is one) fly your alt to the stuff not the other way around.

Or send them the money to buy the stuff themselves (that's what i do)

I know your pissed. But if you want to be safe join my corp and bring your freinds. Null is safer than HS at the moment. We have great intel and need people like you and your freinds. Get a freighter down here and lets make you some isk.

I'm impressed that you managed to keep your head up your butt since 2008 without ever needing to come out for air.

Good bye and good riddance. I'd ask for your stuff, but evidently you just lost it all. I'll accept isk or PLEX too, of course.
