Live and learn Commander. Most of us have tried something similar.

Just as long as you only do it once! :)

Knowing how the game works means that you're able to make the credits you want much faster than the first time around, so chalk it up as a life lesson. :)

Yep you have my sympathy. Pointless saying its your own fault as clearly you realise that, as Globusdiablo says live and learn. Not putting myself up to be a smart ass, but flying without insurance is something I have never done. In fact I have never bought a ship or upgraded it unless I had the credits for insurance x 2. I always thought if you take the ship out and lose it with only insurance x1, you are immediately in a situation of having to use a cheaper ship or risk it.

Lost a Corvette for accidental discharge in the no fire zone that somehow struck a t6..
That was about 29 mil.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Yup, total accident.

I accidentally deployed my guns, waited 10 seconds for it.
Then accidentally fired a volley of my cannons while looking straight at a hauler...

Total accident.

Kharma is the kind of psycho that engineer something that will kill you and call you a fecking idjiit while it kills you.

I will just shoot you in the face or headbutt you every 38 seconds.
