Happy to see you keep at it :) Despite some talking about 'toxic' community, you will find that in EVE PVP, when you are new, hardly anyone will talk smack in game and rile you up saying 'noob' after a fight, which actually you see a lot in other games when you really are a noob and just getting hang of the game, which can be discouraging. It's only when you become an old pilot where the smack n ridiculing starts when you fail, so enjoy your early days. ;) (i.e. As a 2009 toon, if I fail fit or make fail mistake n die I probably get laughed at a lot and will be on the receiving end of banter/smack/maybe even abuse lol. When you fail and die in a ball of fire, people will try to help you and teach you. Consider this your lucky period in your EVE career heh)

Cheers Love! The cavalry's here!

Thanks for all the replies, and the encouragement. I went back out last night, found another hole and went in but this time it was different. I don't think I quite got the mechanics of setting the safe spot right, and was hunted down really quick. Death was swift, and for a brief moment I was qq rage. Peace followed.

That would have been a great time to convo or eve-mail the person with something like:

"Wow! You are truly awesome. You found me so quick! Was I doing something to make it easy? Any tips to make it harder for you and others next time? I'm still getting my space-legs, and trying to figure out this wondrous wormhole space. Well thanks for reading this far, and maybe one day I'll "catch YOU later" Blink"
