First time in lowsec, a month into the game I was killed/podded. The guy who did it explained what I did wrong and sent me 20 mil. ISK for not rage quitting on him.
I have been scamming pirates in lowsec for ISK ever since. |

Low sec remember Empire is keeping a record of what you do there.
I took a mission in low sec where you have to destroy a large structure to finish.
Sure enough someone scanned me down before I could manage it.
First the scanning ship briefly appeared, then came the wolf.
luckily it was just one.
I was in a Cyclone which defended itself, the wolf warped out.
Continued to destroy the structure, the wolf appeared again 10 minutes later, just as the structure was destroyed.
The Cyclone fought it off again In total battling with this wolf for about 20 mins Docked back in high sec with a looted ded space mwd from the mission. Maybe their were a few flames coming out the back of my battle cruiser but you have to have some fun don't you ?

Me and my college roomy went a month or so after we started playing..... I did some jaspet mining he killed the rats we made some money then got smashed to death by a stealth battleship.....
Have never been back.....
low is the A****** of the eve universe. If you want to go to low go to null or WH space.
The only reason to be in low is to kill care-bares, kill the people killing carebares, or sell crap to said carebear killers.

I went there as a total newb because of the usual skillbook mistake that everyone makes exactly once.
Got shot at under station guns and docked my Catalyst safely in low armor, injected my skillbook, then logged off in fear for half an hour.
Now, I know lowsec Sinq Laison very well and can tell you from a system name whether I'd be confident to enter without a scout or not, and what type of player lives in or frequents the area.

I was the CEO of a highsec scrubcorp at the time. One day, a corpie said his vexor was tackled in lowsec. By a badger.
So I did the only logical thing and fit up a meta0 Rifter to go and bail him out.
The badger warped off as we landed, but then I warped to a random asteroid belt and killed a roflfit cyclone.

First time in low sec was when I was pried from the nurturing bosom of noobie missions in amarr starting zones, told what to train, what to fit, given a punisher and told how to plex for loyalty.
Sometimes I fumble the jump through tama and die, usually I make it.
So nostalgic to look back two days ago when I was one day old in eve and being shown low sec. Good Times. |

I don't think anyone can beat that for being unlucky.

When my crap high sec corp deployed to null in 2011, we stopped for a bit to chill in low sec with people camping kinakka. I liked the area, lots of targets and small gang stuff, so I decided to dicth my corp and team up with the locals who (apparently) liked my style.
After around 2 years working with that low sec corp (and becoming a director) we were assimilated into TunDraGon, and now I'm a director in TDG as well.
Been in lowsec since 2011, then.
Oh but a few times before that I had gone into lowsec for that one battleground salvaging mission that sent you like 12 jumps into low. Never had a problem with that mission or gotten camped. Also think I lost a ferox to an ishtar in a low sec mission. That was when I said "K the ferox sucks even though it looks nice, time to buy the ugly drake" (which was super true back in 2010)
--But I did die going through tama recently, server tick away from warping in a hawk :(

I was only a few days old and I decided I wanted to see the edge of the galaxy. I hopped in my trusty slasher and flew all the way to fountain, only seeing 1 ship on the way. After finding a station out there and not being able to dock (and not knowing why) I decided to fly back to high sec. After many jumps, I hit warp to the last gate before highsec, and upon landing, appeared in a new clone in station. I later learned that I was killed by a smartbomb, and I wanted to try out these modules for myself. |

I wanted to have a look at the Titan graveyard in B-R5RB so I jumped into my trusty Cormorant set the course engaged autopilot and off I went on a 30 something gate trip, got 3 systems into low sec before I went into a warp bubble and then was podded and pod killed. |

I honestly can't remember. I do remember staying in hisec for most of the first two months because it was more suitable to learn basic mechanics on your own. Might have welped a few frigates just to see what it was like. I remember doing a courier contract for the guy that got me into the game as a practice run on day three. Went pretty well actually, it took me jumping into a bubbled gate as I got the hang of bouncing around pretty quick. Not much lost on a few days old character.
I decided I wanted to go the PVP route so I chose exploration/missions as early ISK makers. I'm a webdeveloper so hacking appealed to me, and I figured doing PVE combat would at least push me towards combat oriented ships. A wise choice in retrospect, as covops let you explore lowsec with near impunity and combat skills let you run the harder sites.
I couldn't find a proper corp for me so I started my own way to early. Still got through all the bad weather though. But also joined another corp just to see what lowsec was really like. Gave me some insight and a more clear idea what I wanted to do in the future. After that alliance fell apart I rebooted UICON, planted a flag in lowsec, and gathered an excellent crew of guys to fly with.
Tried nullsec, didn't appeal to me, tried wspace, had lots of fun, but decided lowsec is my preferred combat environment and went back. Planted another flag and been a happy capsuleer ever since! |

I don't remember if my first time in lowsec was mining in a retriever or ratting in a drake. Both times ended with a trip to the clone bay, though.

Of course it was a good portion of my isk at the time so I picked up a condor that the tutorials left me so I would have a fighting chance if nasty pirates would harass me (lol). I undocked and set a course for the station. Nothing happened and I headed back home. Nothing happened that time either.
Same here. I bought plenty of skilklbooks in low-sec without ever being chased by the locals.

Back in my day, when we would kill dinosaurs in 3' of snow during downtime (you see the ice age was just starting), going into lowsec as a noob did not mean instant and certain death.
In fact if you didn't have anything worth popping or taking, real pirates didn't bother. They didn't want noobs getting angry and quitting. They wanted the noobs to stay in the game and come back later with something more valuable to take away or ransom (and honor said ransom). By this time they were no longer noobs anyway and knew better.
And this was BEFORE warp-to-zero. Several times through Amamake in a capsule, no death even.
And now... well the kind of players that inhabit lowsec have managed to defeat the game. They have won. They should be congratulated on their epic leetness by leaving it all to them and not bothering to trespass in it while they play something else and waiting to be batphoned to gank that one occasional noob who was not previously made aware of all that leetness but probably won't stick around anyway.
