Yes, we’ve all done really stupid things in New Eden (nod to Rixx Javix.) I thought I’d confessed mine before, but I guess not. My stupendous blunder happened on my 1st birthday as a capsuleer – to the day. It went like this:

how about “fly scouted” 🙂
The scout, if in your corp, can also web you as you initiate warp, which helps you warp much faster (nearly instawarp in t1 industrials) . If not in your corp, you can can-flip your scout before the trip so they have killrights on you. That will let them web you without lowsec-sentries or highsec-popo interference.
