My first EVE-Pirate entry. Today I'll pen a tale of my first PVP experiences.
My pirating life began three months ago, when some friends and I decided to set up a gatecamp in PF-346. Boredom ensued, everything that came through the gate was too fast to be scrambled. After possibly an hour of waiting, a Vexor comes in 15km from the gate. (This is in the era of RMR mind you.) Now our gang consists of a Hawk, an Enyo, a Caracal, an ECM Blackbird, one Crucifer, and myself in a Thorax. Amazingly, T2 hammerhead spring from the Vexor and his guns start chewing on our Hawk. The guy's got to be crazy... or perhaps his friends are on the way, whatever, we're on him in a second.
I lock him down and release my hammerheads, I AB into range and set a webber and scrambler on him, all the while turning on my blasters. The guys shields go down quick enough, but his armor tank is insane, we're merely chipping away at it. Suddenly his drones go in and the guns stop. Most likely he's trying to get to the gate and jump. We continue our relentless attack on his tank, slowly, ever so slowly, it breaks, and his hull goes down. The guy goes poof and I loot his can for some nice T2 and named loot. Dropping the loot of in Orvolle we head deeper into 0.0

Needless to say, we got taken out, by the gang pretty quickly. Not long after that our CEO made off with all the money, and saddened, I quit EVE for two months. But being an ebil piwate I came back just before the new year. To... lackluster results. To sum it up, I've lost two Incursus's to foes, one happend to be in an already damaged Incursus. I lost because I panicked when I entered armor. (I fly my frigates with minimal or no tank, I go for the gank instead.) The second I got insta popped by a T2 fitted Hurricane I had the misfortune of meeting at a gate.
The most painful though, would have to be the loss of my trusty Blasterthron, I lost it not due to my lack of PVP experience, but due to lag. I didn't manage to fire a single shot or activate a single module. But alas, life goes on, I shall continue my pirating ways... or at least until my wallet drys up.
Thus concludes my first EVE-Pirate entry.

Hey hey! PF-346! I love that system. Always fun when you're in a Punisher. :P
The CEO of that corp never made off with any "money"
