That **is** the point of the game, and in fact many games.

Judging from your post i think you are describing yourself. It takes a little maturity to lose with grace and learn from your mistakes. Maturity you don’t seem to have.

The nature of eve is kill or be killed. It’s less ‘_WoW in space_’ and more ‘_mad max meets blade runner_’. The game is designed to allow people to kill you, because they feel like it. And you consented to that the moment you undocked.

Some golden rules to guide you through new eden:

Be able to afford a loss Never fly something (or with something in the cargo) you can’t afford to lose. Yes, not even in highsec. Meaning that you should not fly a ship you cannot afford to replace and refit. Consent to PvP You consent to PvP when you click “undock”. You are not safe in 1.0 security space. [CONCORD](https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/203208902-CONCORD) is there to punish, not to protect. Get used to the idea. In most case…

In particular these two:

- You consent to PvP when you click “undock”.
- There is no such thing as “a fair fight” or “an unfair fight”. There’s only a fight. Circumstances are irrelevant.
