When you're taking a courier contract always take the safe route. I was a courier for a while, just trying some new stuff with my industrial ship (they're the basic cargo haulers), trying to make some change while I messed around. Ended up taking a contract with a high collateral amount, but decent pay and short distance...if I went through a few low security systems. Of course I decided to be stupid, figuring my cloaking module would save me. I jumped into the first low-sec system and there were a few pirates camping the gate. Feeling safe, I aligned to my gate and hit the cloaking module...unfortunately I didn't take into account the large signature of the industrial ship and they locked me instantly. Less than a minute later I was a few hundred million ISK (that's the currency) in the hole, down an industrial and somewhat annoyed. Lessons learned: Always take the safest route and cloaking doesn't equal safety. !eveponies<\/span><\/a><\/span>"}
