Pay Tiger

I was mining in Unpas with my two characters. My main industry character who is non-combat, and my Caldari combat guy.
I was dumping stuff into a jetcan from my miner then immedietly scooping it into my Caldari's Badger. To make sure it wouldn't disappear I had a single light missile in the jetcan so I could scoop ore.
So this guy in a Rifter drives over and steals the missile. I ignored him and put out another to resume scoop mining. He steals that one too then sets out his own jetcan calling me a noob.
I warped off with my Badger, got my Caracal and equipped it with assault missiles, webber, scram, painter, etc. Came back, webbed and scrammed him and proceeded to pound him into tiny little bits and pieces. It felt great.
He dropped a bunch of stuff too. If I can figure out how to use the killboard, I'm going to try to post the kill. >.>
Anyway. Here's the killmail.
2009.08.20 00:13:00

Was 5 minutes of being annoying really worth losing your ship?
Anyway. Chalk up the first kill for the Tiger Pack. ^^

I really don't want to sound like a ****, but why is this at all important? You killed a T1 fit Rifter in a cruiser. I know that's pretty impressive for you (I remember my first kill), but honestly no one cares, this happens about 50,000 times per day (no exaggeration).
If you at least had some decent smack talk with him, or took down a Battleship with your shuttle, then it would be a decent story, but otherwise it's a waste of a slot on the thread list.
Congrats BTW

Well, it's likely not important to you judging by your reply. It doesn't have to be -important- to anyone else, just me. It's a big step foward for me in the game. There's still a lot that I need to learn about EVE but at least this time I can feel secure about being able to handle myself in some situations.
It's my first PVP kill. I'm proud of it. And thanks for the congrats.

Congrats on the kill! Did your heart pound? Did you stop breathing for 60 seconds or more? Now you have truly begun to play EVE.
Nevermind the trolls. A first kill is an occasion to celebrate and there's no shame bragging about it.
(However I think there's a rule against posting killmails on this forum...)

And Pay, good work dude.
I think the underlying awesome here is the story you don't know - the OP was defeated by another frig in a similar circumstance with a HML Caracal before this one. He learnt, he adapted, he WTFPWNd a can flipping douche bag with an AML Caracal.

Yeah, it was pretty dang exciting. ^^ Annnnd.. I'll remove the killmail. I didn't know it wasn't allowed. I apologize.

I'm not trying to troll, and wish to offer sincere congrats to the OP for his kill, I understand how big a deal it is. However, if everyone made a forum post about their first kill, it would crash the internet.
It's like having a child - it's a "miracle" and all that, but it happens all the time, and no one else cares.
And OP, if you acknowledge that it's only important to you, then why did you post it on a public forum?
(BTW, it woulda been more impressive if you took out the Rifter with your Badger)
oh, and 5 minutes of causing annoyance to a high sec miner probably WAS worth losing a 350K isk ship, especially for a can flipper...

Well, I posted here because 1.) I wanted to embarass the guy publicly.
Annnnd..
2.) My friend Liitar taught me .. literally everything I know about PVPing and gave me some strategies on how to deal with small, fast ships after I lost my Caracal a few days ago to a flipper. (By the way Liitar, I JUST chased off another guy doing the same thing. He didn't die, but he and I talked for a few minutes. He was surprised I'm using a target painter. ^^)
And I basicly wanted to say thanks to Liitar for being really nice and giving advice to a noob like me. :)

What this guy said. It's always an adrenaline rush when you kill someone, but the first time will give you the shakes and make you want to dance. (Just don't scream and wake up your wife like I did my first time.)

Congratulations I still remember my first solo PvP experience. I was so excited I forgot to wait out my criminal countdown, jumped back to Hisec, and was promptly introduced to the business end of a Concord ship

You added your API Key to the site, hence that error. The API server is down ATM, so that will be there.
The text box above where you entered your API information, the one right above "After submitting: return to this page. view the killmail. "
Just copy/paste the KM into that box and slap submit, you don't need to sign up or anything, the API feature just lets the board pull your kills and post them for you. -------------------------------------------------

Shut up and get out. These threads are my favorites, way better than the usual dribble we get in here.

Thanks Lexa! ^^
I'm still feeling pretty high on my kill. I keep secretly hoping some other frigate or destroyer tries to steal my jetcan contents so I can blow 'em up. If I keep thinking like this, I'm going to lose a lot more ships methinks. ^^

Originally by: rand0 eastman Edited by: rand0 eastman on 20/08/2009 23:30:13 in 2 months time you will be sitting in a belt on the opposite end of this scenario, with you being the can flipper. take heed this warning young sir for it is not to late, there is yar in you yet... my suggestion is to drop the mining right now and aquire yourself some hearty comrades, for they will keep you on a steady course... go forth and plunder!
What makes you think my advice was going to continue him down the carebear path

you mean this? stating a fact?! does not advice make. at best they are words of encouragement but look what happened to hit-ler when his drinking buddy confused these little two factoids
edited cos i apperently can't write hit-ler. because of the censor.
