    i bet lack of patience
    if u try 7 times that means u want to play but u dont get a "purpose" in eve, try to find that before starting a trial

    Okay guys I am going to tell you what happened to me yesterday and then you may feel free to bash, support or whatever. If anything hopefully you will answer my question.

    Yesterday I decided to do some PVE in my beloved rattlensnake. It was a fairly easy mission. It was a lvl 4 pirate invasion with the Sansha. On board my rattlesnake I had the following fitted.

    3 CCC's t1 for rigs.
    2x dread guristas invul.
    1 ballistic t2 hardener.
    A t2 x-large shield booster.
    A t2 shield amp.
    A t2 cap recharger,
    3x t2 ballistic control systems,
    2x t2 cap power relays and
    1 t2 cap. flux coil.
    In my highs I had 6 caldari navy cruise lanchers(paradise missiles) and a tractor beam.
    5 t2 hammerheads and 5 t2 warriors.

    Okay so I went into the mission and immediately realized I had equipped one of my hardeners the wrong way. Usually this wouldn't have been an issue but as I started to return the fire upon my ship I immediately realized, my lanchers were not activating. This long span of nothing started to progress in the system of irjunen.

    I started to see my 16k shield taking hits but I didn't worry because I've never even come close to dying in this ship because it tanks so well. Well as I sat there like a lame duck. Finally my lanchers activated but more reinforcements started appearing around me and started firing.

    I felt this could be a bad situation so I decided to release my drones to kill off the warp scrammer but nothing happened.

    My drones wouldnt release.

    It just kept saying it was busy. I must have clicked the release drones tab about 40 times during this process of 5-10 mins. I sat there not able defend myself as my shield slowly were withered away. Well eventually I watched in disgust as my ship fell to the hands of a fairly easy enemy.

    After I floated there in my wreckage for over a minute because of more lag I finally returned to station and petitioned. Overall I managed to kill just 3 of the ships because of the inability to use my offense.

    I waited almost 24 hours since my petition and then went to the help channel and asked how long I should be waiting before I get any results. Once I told them my story I was told I had a 99% chance of not getting my ship back. So my question is this.

    What did I do wrong to lose close to 1.8 billion. I didn't go into low sec, I didn't even encounter other players, all I did was try to play the game but instead was refused because of ingame lagging issues. Yet now I apparently have a 1% chance of getting my belongings back. How is this fair?

    The only reason I ask this big question is this. I have been a player here since June of 06 and run 3 accounts. I know what it means to lose expensive things because I have but not like this. I fear I will end up leaving if it means I lose my belongings for good.

    So EVE community, what do i do now?

    
    Sincerely,

    Skip

    You know I read all of your posts and I agree with them, I really do. (the helpful ones that is)

    The thing you have to ask yourself though, is this worth it? Is playing a game for entertainment purposes worth it when the entertainment is gone. I see people comparing Eve to Vietnam. Its not a war its a game. Unlike most situations you either sign up for it or you don't. I didn't sign up for a game with the possibility of major faulty game mechanics. I signed up for an adventure. I basically lost over 100 dollars the other day in ISK to currency and all I have to show for it is. "A story" I don't see the trade off. I don't get how it is acceptable. I deal with clients everyday and I cant say oh hey I am going to charge you more than you planned and you are going to have to deal. That doesn't fly there and I don't see why it should fly here.
