No more big ship mining for me

20 Mar 2020NoLemm
Ah, you are still reading my logs.
Maybe these will help you understand who I am. Or better said was.
Why I made my choices and did what I thought I had to do.
Out here at this moment there is nobody I want to tell these things.

Now something else. Listen... or read. Whatever.
Whatever you do, don't go mining! Never!
After some time of bounty hunting I thought I could use a little easy chilling.
What could be more relaxing than mining? Exactly big ship mining.
Doing nothing and earning massive credit. Great!

No, not great!!!
The mining thing was quite okay. Maybe too relaxing. Finding the good rocks is kind of hard and time consuming.
Especially if you're new to this. Nobody told me asteroids ain't marked?!

But the really bad part, I mean really really bad, was my trip to a marked to sell my load of Painide.
Yeah, I know low temperature diamonds are the real thing. I didn't know that. Nobody told me. Nobody tells me anything around here.

So back to my story.
I'm flying around, jumping through some systems and bam. I get interdicted. In my darn T9.
You know what that means? I'm as good as dead. Type 9s don't escape an interdicktion. They get robbed!
Anyway I try to escape, following the vector. Left right, up, down, everywhere. But that scum of a pirate won't give up.
This takes for ages.
I guess he was a rookie or drunk or maybe both. Cause my T9 was definitely not helpful.
It's an elephant. No, it's a castle built for an elephant family. It's huge.
I can't remember why I even bought this mountain of a ship.

Where was I? Ah yes, the interdiction.
Some how we got near a star. I managed to pull him in that direction.
Better a bad Idea than no idea I thought.
Of course I got pulled out of supercruise.
And I waited for the scum to come after me, but he didn't. Maybe he was eaten by the star? I hope so.
I got away with some minor bruises. Nothing serious.

After that I rushed to next painide buying market to get rid of that stuff.
Rushing maybe isn't the right word. I was totally freaked out, scared, my blood pressure skyrocketed.

Well let's just say NEVER AGAIN!!!
I don't need experiences like that anymore.
I'm back to my combat vessels. I feel safer with a gun in my hand.
