Just checked the S&I tab for the alt I'm on and yes, thanks for pointing that out. Now I feel completely senile Ugh

Looks like I've been running PI since 2011 too. I have a horriable feeling there's a dozen or so alts set up doing it I completely forgot about.

Only moment similar to this was when I came back to check on some station containers after a while, I noticed I had a mining mindlink implant in one that turned out to be worth above a billion ISK. Back when I got it from some storyline mission it was worth around 200k or something. Managed to sell it just before they announced putting them in the LP stores.

I had installed a job for shuttles when I was a rookie, and I think I went 4-5 years before delivering it. At least I'm pretty sure I've delivered it by now.

Always keep some kind of fitted ship in places in the universe. Just in case.

It was still in the job,
waiting for delivery.

Hadn't I sold the char and had the intermediary check everything,
I would still not know about it. xD

Didn't want those T1 Kinetic HAMs anyways.





Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I have an undelivered material efficiency job on a plutonium charge S bpo from like 2008.

Three years, but that's my piggy bank

Although I sold an alt recently and cashed in two years worth and it really wasn't even worth flying round to collect them

I just cashed out about five billion in Datacores. Figured that CCP will be nerfing that again.

Some a little more immediate:

How about doing some "cloaked" probing. Then hearing the targeting alert and realize you forgot to turn on the cloak before switching to the map?

Oops.

I have senior moments often in eve.

Usually, i'll have just scanned down a wh, or i'm coming back to my wh. I'll warp,a nd then alt tab to look at a site or something. a few seconds turns into an hour and I go 'oh crap I was in warp!' 50/50 i'm in a clone vat.

But on topic, I have had a research agent since 2005. And I often completely forget I have said agent. one time I went like 3 years without cashing in the RP's, and I just died in null and was looking at my assets, and I went 'why do I have crap in system XXX... OH! RESEARCH!" lol

I have also done the pi thing. I go to deploy on a new planet and get an error that I am maxed out. Then I check and its pi installations from a year ago. lol

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!
