Things to Know in Eve
(1): Be Polite.
(2): Make Friends.
(3): Be prepared to shoot those Friends.
(4): You consent to PvP when you click "undock".
(5): You are not safe in 1.0 security space. CONCORD is there to punish, not to protect. Get used to the idea
(6): Never fly something (or with something in the cargo) you can't afford to lose. Yes, not even in highsec.
(7): If you lose stuff, it's almost always your fault. Really, only yours.
(8):That which does not kill you has made a tactical error
(9): If it moves, shoot it, If it doesn't move, shoot it anyway, It might move later. Overkill, it works.
