75.140,132.00 Isk made off Negative 10 Wrecks in rancer on a day old toon in a ibis. Total time investment 5mins. Only a few jumps out from Jita.

Results will very. However if your a new to game just make yourself an alt on your account. The isk making efficiency on there fails (thankfully a lot) can be epic

New players just look for bottle neck systems for short cuts to main training hubs (Jita, Hek, Rens, Amarr). Change Autopilot to Prefer shorter. Fly out and find a blob. Wont be long till a group comes and said pirate group has to beat feat leaving the loot. A quick way to make some isk.

If you're serious, could you provide some advice on how to avoid dying to the pirates once you jump into their camp in an Ibis?

Translation: OP got real lucky on, say, two T2 cruiser wrecks left floating around after a fight, this time.

Surprised you made it through the gate in an Ibis. Typically those noobtards sit there in SB Battleships off of gate for hours on end. I suppose that's what you do when you have zero skill.

Actually ship spinning is the only thing that takes zero skill. Pressing unduck, warp to and f1 - f8 takes a small amount of skill.

Once I found a blue'd wreck from a gank Thrasher on the Jita undock so I "Looted All" before his alt could scoop and made about 25 easy mil.

And all this cause I accidentally pressed the "Undock" button.

this is an actual form of income for a lot of players in eve- cleaning up after the pvper's. I;ve never really done anything like it but its why i love eve- the perfect example of the butterfly effect. i.e
trader buys something, gets blown up by suicide gankers, loot gets robed by vultures and sold back to whoever

I'm with Brick on this one- make thouse carebearing b******s squeal..

Indeed, although in this case, it was the CONCORD'd wreck of the Thrasher itself I was looting. Which is why I was surprised I managed to pull 25 mil in T2 modules out of it.

Hope that pirate made a profit anyway!

I'll never look at an Ibis pilot the same way again.

So we'll gank them. Because they can take it. Because they're not our heroes. They're our silent guardians. Watchful protectors. Dark knights.
