hi after wayrow1 4yrs battling in dust his son has entered the eve universe. There is a lot to get ones head around lol. In my first week mining I noticed red enemy drones a short distance from me so thinking it would be no problem I loosed my hobgoblins on them barely made a retreat lol. Now when mining in lower sec space they seem to actively hunt me will this go on always or is there a way to rectify the problem. Also where can I find info and specs on these bloody drones LOL

Two possibilities here circadian seekers and drifters from your description it is hard to tell which of them found you. Because you got away from them I would be inclined to say they were circadian seekers.

What to do in the future.
Do not attack any red crosses in space that are not attacking you unless you are prepared to fight and quite likely die especially for a new character.

What can you do now.
Not sure, try avoiding them until after the next down time and see if they still follow you.
Get into a cheap ship and allow them to kill you in hopes they will leave you alone.
Or simply kill them and get it over with.
Note if you found a drifter be prepared for one hell of a fight they can and often do best even veteran players with significantly higher SP and better equipment than you will have.

Yeah, there's some nasty stuff out there. Avoid the Circadian Sleepers, if you survive them, they'll hate you forever, or so I hear, that could be evil fear mongering going on.

My Corpmate and I were on a roam on Sunday. We ran across a wormhole marked with a Celestial Beacon, C414. I looked that puupy up and said no way in heck. He really wanted to take his Tengu and my NI Exqueror in there. Sorry, I can afford to lose the ship, I'm just not going to throw it away on a lark. Finally talked him out of it.

Don't need to tick off Drifters and Sleepers.

Know what you are shooting at.

If it is standard pirate NPCs you are ok. Drifters or seekers leave them be.
