*At some point, everyone will lose one of their beloved ships. No matter how skilled and clever you are, it happens to everyone, and that's okay.
*If you lose a ship, don't take your frustration out on the player that killed you, as destroying others ships are a part of the game, if not the point of the game. Instead focus your attention on rebuying the ship or choosing a better ship that may be a better option to use.

*If you lose ships, usually it is your fault. You may have warped slightly too short or too far, or you may have missed your spinals too many times. Don’t worry about this, since it’s too late already. Instead accept the loss and move on as quickly as possible.

*Do not get frustrated or rage easily, this can possibly lead to losing more ships or depending on what you do in response to your loss, being banned.
