Did you warp to your insta-warp out bookmark that you surely made before undocking an obviously defenseless ship from the single most popular station in eve at a time where there was obviously a lot more people in local then normal? Oh, you didn't? Huh.

Jita is .9 sec right? Should be fine. Nope. Exploded and got pod killed.

10mil is nothing, but I still find it annoying.

Congratulations CCP, you lost my potential subscription.

First mistake. You went to Jita. There is no need to go there. I haven't been there for over a year and only 2 or 3 times ever. It's a shithole at the best of times.

Second mistake. You were blissfully unaware of current activities centred on Jita.

Third mistake. You didn't take basic precautions like having an instawarp bookmark for undocking.

You can quit if you like, but this game is all about taking personal responsibility.

Unlike the real world, there is no mummy or government or welfare system to protect you from yourself in Eve.

Well at least you know that the rumours of EVE going all carebear are false, right?

OP, you're probably not aware, that operation burn Jita has started today, which is in fact a huge coincidence.
Try again in a few days, should be fine then.

A miner who believes he should be perfectly safe in EVE shouldn't be playing. You are never safe anywhere, and if you believe you should be safe, go away.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

If that's all it takes for you to quit. You don't belong here.

Go buy a new ship and undock and go on your merry way. Why make it into a bigger problem than it is?

Soooooo... yeah I just read this today.

http://kotaku.com/5905691/eve-oline-producers-declare-players-attempt-to-destroy-games-economy-absolutely-brilliant

Under most normal circumstances I wouldn't have had any problems. I didn't get out of town soon enough I guess. Yes I saw the time dilation at max and ignored it because I figured Jita was always laggy. Wrong...

Yes 2009 was 3 years ago, it just felt like 4.

So yea it will be interesting to see what happens over the next month. I'm still not going to re-subscribe because I'm not part of the EVE elite and I don't have the time to make it there, so I'll always just end up being that guy who wants to enjoy the space screensaver and play with the economy a bit before getting blown up and pod killed. Not much fun.

Edit: Also, somehow my 4 hours for PLEX is still going on? Strange stuff.

Very 'strange' indeed.

Alot of the other stuff I actually agree with. Though to correct, it isn't really about elitism. It's more about never being independent or small scale. Be a blobikens boy or be fail.
