Izo, your a bloody idiot.
Time and time again I have told people "Trust no one" and thought "I'm not stupid, I'll see it coming and I'll be outta there."
So I've just left ASCN space, to rejoin my Piracy career, possibly in my own Corp! Well, I'm hunting for 2 hours before i find a Rifter... Pop... And move on, I, by the way, am in an Ishkur.
A Jaguar jumps in and after a short period of time, I find the fellow in a belt. Heart beating, as I've not been in the Piracy game for about a month, I fly 10km to get inside 20km... Where I didnt even have a 20km scram... and engage. Brilliant, I cut through him fast enough and I ransom for 15 mil.
I get a "Sure" in reply and he jams me... Which a faction jammer, at 7km or so, that wasnt even suppoed to work for my race. (ECM is overpowered people!) Course this is all happening at the speed of light and I forget to pull my drones off. He goes pop, along with most of his modules.
Then, he says he'll pay the ransom if he can get his gear back. To quote Nuggan on this one, "It cant be this easy... can it?"
He asks me to watch his can, so i reply...

[ 2006.06.28 10:45:40 ] Izo Azlion > Theres a can near the one you blew up in, its what I took from your loot, Its there also for you to pick up.
[ 2006.06.28 10:46:18 ] Ivana Cebera > was there much left?
[ 2006.06.28 10:47:08 ] Izo Azlion > A little bit
[ 2006.06.28 10:47:43 ] Ivana Cebera > hummm
[ 2006.06.28 10:49:11 ] Izo Azlion > your heading for me, i will open fire
The answer to the above question, is "No".
Turns out I get raped by a Cyclone, him coming for revenge, and he pops my two month old Ishkur, getting a faction passive, and various tech 2 mods.
Bugger.
Now, what did I learn from this?
-Dont trust anyone
-Watch stuff for people with the scanner, rather than up close
-Dont trust anyone
-Get out while you still can
-Dont ****in trust anyone
Turns out he aint a bad lad, and I might even wind up flying with him, but let it be a lesson to you all. You dont need gank squads to have fun, peoples word isnt always honourable, and EVE is harsh.
Thanks,
Izo Azlion

when will people learn to:
1. pop the ship
2. ransom the pod
double the reward and impants are often way more expensive than any ship ransom.
when going solo, only people you should ever ransome are the ones who:
1. dont shoot back
2. convo you themselves
