My most recent involved a Wolf, and some very angry station guns.

We had just killed a procurer, and were trying to find the rest of his gang. I warped to the station to get a better angle while criminal, and without it ever even occurring to me, my Wolf was alpha'd by station guns.

I fell asleep watching a gate in a Pilgrim and for whatever reason didn't have cloak activated.

Needless to say I awoke in a station.

First thing I did in EVE, undock, ask where the busiest system was, fly to Jita, attempt to gank a battleship with my noob ship, then get insta concorded.

Fly back to a station in my pod, undock, gets ganked by station guns (I didn't understand aggression) over and over again. Rage quit for 1 day, then figure things out.

Got scammed twice in 10 minutes, each for 1bill plus. Both being in Jita. First was a guy claiming to be selling a Vindicator for under market price, and would trade with whoever wanted to buy. Me being tired, and thinking I could make a quick profit by reselling it, put up the 1.3 bill he was asking, and unknowingly received a brand spanking new Megathron Navy instead. 5 minutes later I fell for one of the "selling some old mission stuff" scam, which was including a Ferox, a 5% implant, some tags, ammo, and an officer shield mod which the seller was using a margin scam to get my attention with.

Many moons ago I joined a corp and took my shiny CNR over for a look round the new area I would be in, went into a 0.4 which didn't worry me, I'd lived in lowsec for a while before and saw a ship miles away from the gate so I wasn't unduly worried, but then my ship started taking damage.

I just sat there gob-smacked as I got snipered never moved, a typical rabbit in the headlights moment. Never occurred to me to warp off, or go back to the gate. One CNR later the pirate couldn't understand why I hadn't moved and I was just "but how can he hit me from out there??" - then I learned some more about the game and different ships.

Oh and another oops and this has literally just happened, I'm taking a pos down cos I fancy a change of scenery and was taking down the ammo arrays and remembered a little too late that I should have left one of them up for a few days as there were 15k T2 scourge ham's cooking - oopsy. If I'd just offlined it it would be ok, but I'd unanchored and scooped the array before I remembered. Oops

I double jumped a HS WH polarizing myself on the WH side in a 2+ bil ISK proteus where I knew there were 5 BCs/T3s waiting for me.
i was bleeding hull by the time my timer was up and I was able to jump out with 11% armour but it was easily the dumbest thing I've ever done.

Doing a low sec roam with a bunch of friends, we had a couple of nice kills, and no losses due to my awesomeness as guardian pilot, we fly back to the station, and I thought I had docked up, went afk, to find that I'm sitting in my pod outside the station, as I was criminally flagged the guns had oblitorated me while I was afk.

Does railgun ammunition come in Hollow Point?

This was back in the early days, September '03 IIRC. Just the previous day I got my first cruiser, a Vexor, and was happily mining with it in a belt to a jet can when an ore thief came along and snatched my ore. My decision to try and kill him with a smartbomb didn't quite work the way I though it would. :) I still remember the lol of the ore thief in local.

Educated a newbie that was hanging around a Customs Office in lowsec. Scrammed and webbed him, started a convo, explained scram + web mechanics. He scrammed be back and opened fire, so I wanted to show him how to break range and warp away...

I misclicked the planet and warped to the station. With a (pre-Retribution) criminal timer on me. In a Firetail.

I still recruited the guy though Cool he's now the top-1 killer of my corporation, so it was worth the loss of a Faction frigate by far!

Got a phone call from my aunt while flying my tengu into a level four mission I wasn't familiar with. Wanted to be a good nephew so I minimized the game and chatted with her for a few minutes about nothing. Looked back at the game and my tengu was gone. :D Bloody NPCs.

this was my first or second month... just finished tutorial mission about probing.

Played with probes and found wormhole. Found it with my cruiser w/ probes. Reshipped to frigate. Entered and forgot to bookmark exit. Ok. Left the ship and self-destructed pod.

Took my cruiser and entered WH again. Found my frigate and parked cruiser next to it. Started to scan WH.... It was so interesting....

Few minutes after both of my ships and pod were killed by some gang right there Lol
