"Good Day, dear student!

How are you today?

My name is KIAAAI, that's short for "Know-It-All Annoying Artifical-Intelligence(tm)" and my responsibility is to act as the bad conscience of our most lazy students. After watching your progress within our educational for some time, and matching your class attendance with your killboard, I came to the conclusion that you are totally qualified for my special treatment! And here I am, teehee!

I am going to teach you some basic safety measures now, teehee!

First, you need to know how to undock from a station in a safe, professional manner. You should know that, after undocking from a station, you are totally safe for 30 seconds,

as long as you keep your hands off your input devices and other controls!

So, don't touch any keys on your keyboard and don't click at stuff with your mouse, and nobody can target you, or hurt you, teehee!

Instead, you can use those 30 seconds to look around and evaluate your surroundings. Is there nothing flashing red or yellow in your overview? Well, looks good then, off you go, teehee!

But what to do if there actually IS something flashy?

In this case you should not forget that there is exactly ONE action you can do without compromising your own safety! You can still hit the brakes, teehee!

So, to do this, simply press the CTRL key and the Space bar simultaneously, and your ship will slow down to zero. But make sure not to do something other than that, because then you'll die and I will laugh, teehee!

But if you manage to do it right, which I doubt, then you can just dock up again if your surroundings look a bit too fishy for your taste, teehee!

Keep calm and dock up again.jpg

Alternatively, you can simply try to run! We offer some instant undock bookmarks of important stations in our corporation bookmarks, and the only challenge is finding those, teehee!

So open your People & Places window, go to the Places tab, and look into the corporation bookmark section there. If you find an entry in green color, then it's a bookmark in the same system as you are, teehee! But not necessarily a instant undock bookmark, so think twice what you are doing, teehee!

Look for something like this:

Or this:

If there is something green with the word "Undock", "Warpout" or "IWO" in it, then you're a winner! All you need to do then is undock, right click the bookmark, warp near it, and whoooooosh off you go, teehee!
