Be careful if running missions for the same faction for months on end; your standings toward their enemies will drop big-time. (To the point you may be killed on sight when entering their space.)

Unless docked, don't get out of your ship to go get another one. *

When someone shoots you they are not making a grave personal insult or trying to make you feel bad; they are just playing this shooty-spaceship game so go shoot them back!

Do not play this game solo. Seek out long-standing new-player friendly communities.

Until you know how overheating works, you should lock your ability to overheat so you don't melt your equipment.

If you join a wormhole corp that insists on you using a naming convention for your ships, leave. They are clueless and will get you killed.

Hugging neutral citadels is safe half of the time. The other half, it'll get you vaporized.
