Ok, this is half rant, half curiosity.
I'm sitting on a dock, see a flashy, I engage it. INSTANTLY it changed into a Vindicator and knocks me off the dock, keeps pushing me and blows me up.
I need to know, how was this even possible. A merlin turned into a Vindi in the flash of an eye.

It was instant, as in .01th of a second instant.

The proper response to getting burned is to adapt and figure the way to kill your opponents. Not cry for CCP's help.
CCP can't patch stupid, no matter how they try. In Eve, if it looks like a trap, it's a trap . . . and if it doesn't look like a trap, it's a trap. Carebears, stop crying for CCP to save you from this harshness that we true Eve players love. Eve is not for you so GTFO and go to some bland MMO that is better for your care-free gaming needs.
Your whole killboard is suicide ganking miners? Maybe if you did things that actually took skill or required experience you would better understand how frustrating some of these "mechanics" are.

To be fair, it wasn't a duel. I saw a flashy frigate and engaged it. Then it switched into a Vindicator.
In any case, I'm over it. I've been learning to just accept that EVE has many broken mechanics that are used to gain unfair advantage in just about any situation and I'm learning hard lessons about what to look for in the future.

Everyone in EVE is risk averse. Most people in EVE PVP in gangs or fleets of some kind. I lost a Stratios to a group of like 22 pilots camping a gate. All I ever see are groups of people engaging a solo ship. Even the big feared Merc corps typically only blop people. Lets face it, strength in numbers.
I have been doing a lot of station camping lately and was taught everything I currently know about it from what I consider one of the best. Now, I'm looking at going back to what I used to do and that is study corps, their activities, ships flown, time on/off line and then dec them. As a one man operation right now, I have to be choosey and selective of my targets which I consider risk averse. I dont want to lose ships. Nothing wrong with that.
I guess my point is, there is a difference to me in not wanting to lose ships and engaging in various mechanical exploits to take advantage of other players. Is it legal? Sure, which makes it ok for some. Should some of it be changed? Absolutely and until they are, I'm sure there will be people trying to capitalize on them as much as possible.
Eve is certainly a game of lessons. Some learned harder than others. It sucks to lose a blingy ship in such ridiculous ways, but, its just how it is. I learned a billion isk lesson in this situation and I'm sure I'll learn many more in the future. I still have a lot to learn about all of the varieties of PVP there is in EVE and I'l continue experimenting with things until I've found my personal sweet spot.

You know what, I know a lot of people dont like HoleySheets, but in a time when I was looking to learn something new, join a merc corp and was turned down by everyone or everyone wanted something, he was the only person who actually taught me something new. He taught me about ship fits, modules, tactics, what to look for etc. He was immensely helpful to me and never asked for anything. He sent emails full of helpful information and honestly did everything he could to teach me the ropes of his craft. He could have easily blown me off like everyone else.
Say what you want about him, but in a world where everyone listens to the same WIIFM radio station, I commend him for his support and help.
