I'm just a beginner, half of the post was way above my head but if you can tolerate the loss of months of work in 1-2 minutes you an tolerate being evicted out of a hole.
Its never really that bad. 6 months from now he'll be telling this story to new friends and having a laugh about it!
The thing about Eve is that once you manage to do something, its always easier to do it again.
Not sure what the OP is pissed about. CCP doesnt have to imburse you SQUAT. Your stuff was lossed due to a valid game mecahnic that you were UNAWARE of. It sucks for you, but believe me worse has happened in this game due to ignore of game mechanics. You lost what>? a couple hundred mil, tech 1 battlecruisers? Get over it, life goes on. I do recall the first titan ever to be killed in eve, was lost because the user logged off, and was unaware of aggerssion timer mechanics,. look up cyvok of Ascendant Frontier http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Destroyed_Titans first
30+ billion lost because of ignorance of game mechanics. Did he petition it? Of course he did, CCP rejected it, on the same grounds they did you. Whether you response like Cyvok did and call Foul and ragequit the game, or learn from your mistake, is entirely up to YOU.
When you stated you had used a small pos for such length of time that right there told me that you didnt fully know what you were doing., Not trying to troll here, but in my time in WH space (mostly ganking people) I have seen a small tower, i THINK ONCE. Theres a good reason why every uses large. Any intellegent person that has pos bashed know that you can reinforce a small tower with 5 gank battlecruisers in a few hours.
So tbh, using a small tower you were setting yourself up for failure to begin with.

Fun thread, interesting replies, but I think the OP left MMORPG.com about a month and a half ago guys.
