oh crap they are all running locator agents on you so they can kill you in your noob ship with a dreadnut. Stay out of low sec, get a retriever, buy a copy of excel and skill books and learn how to set skills and develop skill plans and ship fittings. Park at a trade hub so you don't have to fly for parts pickup, buy some plexes and keep your head down.

Ya... I was lookin for a place to hunker down and grind out some high - sec mining... (I know I know... but hey, a cool $1 mil per pop is a lot for me right now and u should know that within 24 hrs I expanded my average haul intake from $1 mil to $4.5 mil. That's 450% growth per day for you trolls that can't add.) P

Anyway... ended up picking a system that was several jumps either way from essential supplies. *facepalm.*

Another funny thing I just discovered today... for awhile in the first couple of days I was running around in a Frigate with a warp stabilizer fitted and completely oblivious to the fact that my tracking range was horrible. *facepalm.*

I've got a good plan (I think... I keep learning crap that makes me twerk I mean tweak it.) for both building up some mining capability (for those fat stacks...) and building up to my first cruiser.

It's rather sweet... while I grind out Massive Scordite I plot world domination. Or perhaps just a path to a decent first cruiser build.

O yea... forgot to add... I went into "Burning Down the Hive" knowing it's notorious for giving noobs trouble. I was thinking "not this guy" and all smug about myself ... you know.. thinking I had a decent fit and what not.

So I go in blazing with my destroyer... yes... destroyer... and got web-i-fied and swarmed and totally annihilated. (By the time I figured out what was going on it was too late... I almost pulled it off.)

Very humbling. But yes, I learned a ton just in that one fight. Went back in with a Frigate and cleaned house. It was probably the event where the difference between mobile sniping tactics and armor tank finally clicked. My prob was I didn't have enough tank the first go around. :P

Anyway... this thread could probably be merged with "the things that noobs do" or whatever it's called.

I'll leave u with this... I've ventured into 0.6 space to do some mining. That's right. You can't stop me (well... u probably could but, er...) I'm living on the edge. :P
