If you take the time to build it up for a couple weeks.. someone will blow it up in 2 minutes when they hot drop you...

There is a certin system called OIJANEN

OIJANEN has no station, and is constantly filled with Capital hunters. trying to cross this area with either a carrior or Rorqual is near impossible. There are no other systems besides Null to jump into.. and well we have all been Blown up in BFW-

I am effectivly STUCK!!

the only way around it is to buy a ship on the other side.. or be suicidal and hope nobody is looking at the overview for 30 seconds.. After making the jump your ship has to align which gives people enough time to warp to you from anywhere in space and tackle you before you can warp off... IF you do warp off.. they can scan you down just as you come out of warp and it takes 30 seconds from the time you drop out of warp to be able to use a cloak....

Dont get me started on Bumping in HS...

I was expecting you to look much more duckish.

TL;DR: I made bad choices, but it's CCP's fault.

You may as well get started on the bumping. This whine thread is going to be locked anyway.

So you can't put a cloak and mwd on your rorq (cutting your align time down by a lot) and some mods/rigs to help you with that warp issue, and plant your cyno in an unused null system, jump in and fleet warp yourself to a safe? Or like someone just said, web yourself into warp.

How pitiful can one be in a video game?

When I first started Eve, my small corps had to use freighters to move stuff around in Null sec.

I would be up set about the reduced jump ranges except the Rorqual can now take gates. So escorts and scouts will be a choice. Also keep a moving cyno upto 5lyr out incase crap is about to hit the fan.

Rorqual is a mining op vessel, not a freighter treat it as such.

I own 2 rorquals my self. I have also lost one jumping through enemy territory

Someday I will have the time to play. For now it is mining afk in High sec. In Cheap ships

Calm down miner

Perhaps join an alliance that is a teeny weeny less bit ironic, given your whining?

Apply water to burned area.

as a miner myself who has lost 2 rorq but ove rthe course of 3 years i see the problem.

move to a new area.

or adjust the crap you are doing so you don;t get caught. after 14 years i would think you would learn... after losing the second ******* rorq i would think you would of learned.

Adjust the way you play, clearly you are not doing things correctly. if you fail to adjust then you should not **** and moan when you die.

Stop jumping to the same system and dying. or adjust your ship so you cna jump safely, or you know, build a pos network in the systems you jump to and stop blind jumping.

i could go on, but 12 year sin this game have taught me most people are stubborn and the rest are stupid.

From one capital miner to another, ADJUST or DIE

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

whatever happened to speaking up and pointing out the issues to help make the game better?

Instead we have "tear collectors" the lowest form of life in eve..
we had a saying.. who you are in eve reflects who you are IRL..

Because it isn't really about making the game better. It's just about making it easier for you.

That OP isn't interested in the health of the game. It doesn't consider that the hunters that sit in that system are also allowed their fun. It doesn't consider that perhaps there are other ways to do things within the current mechanics.

The whole thing was a whine about how it's difficult to do what you want to do and that's CCP's fault.

So of course there is tear collection, because the tone of your OP is all about tears. Nothing at all to do with making the game better; and if tear collection is somehow a reflection of people IRL, then surely the shedding of them must be as well.
