...you scan down a wormhole? I am curious to see how a non wormholer views my favorite part of Eve? Is it generally ignored? Do you sneak in and gank the guy not checking d-scan? Do you laugh at us idiots who don't have local?

DISCUSS!!

No trolling please

do this: -.- to express my displeasure at the lack of something to hack or a DED site to run.

I run away SCREAMING, begging for mercy for my soul for having done such a thing.

NPC nullsec dweller here.

If it goes directly to high sec then, as mentioned elsewhere, shopping spree for the whole alliance. Or I might just sit outside it in an ishtar with sentries out and blap anything that comes out of it. If it leads to another region of nullsec we might go roaming, depending where it goes. If it's a smallish wormhole (C1, C2 or even C3) and we're bored, we might go in and run sites. If there's people living in it and we're bored because of a lack of pew in our space, we might go hunting in it. And of course if an organized corp starts coming out of it and roaming us, we either fight them or dock up if there's too many of them and they start blobbing.

Look at implants, jump clone timer, and whether I have a cheap ship nearby to switch to.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

Hating? What hating?

Whats the purpose of going into a WH when a) its most likely already inhabited and b) Cov Ops Recon cant fight and so cant use any sites in there?

Check one of the online wormhole databases, see where it leads. If it's to low, null, or high, usually jump through and see where I end up. I don't bother with wormhole space, doesn't really interest me.

I use WH as gateway from low to null and back, when I feel to run explorations in deep null

Depends on mood.
sometimes check to see if it is occupied and i can run sites.
sometimes look for paths to remote space.
check easy route to hi sec to sell loot.
organise gank if something nice is inside to kill.
sometimes just ignore.

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

The first three WH's I entered. Nothing on deep scan. Nothing but more WH's. After that I just ignored them in favour of DED sites.

Wormhole space is officially the Rodney Dangerfield of Eve. We get no respect!

True, but we do have cookies, and that will be enough.
