Probably been mentioned, but I want to add my voice to the confusion.
Simply put, in PVP it's a strategic move to remove the player completely from the field. If you don't pod them, they simply redock somewhere close (typically), re-ship, and return to the fight. Pop their pod and it's likely that they have a long way to come back into the fight. And no, I don't move my clone into the combat area specifically because it might get stuck there. |

that's true but it gives you the opportunity to steal that stuff from others. If you manage to pod all the members of a corp out (which is very unlikely because they probably have scanner alts but anyway) and collapse the wormhole entrance they may not find their stuff again and you are free to kill the POS or wait until it runs out of fuel and steal all the stuff.
If I catch a pod in w-space I usually ransom them. If they don't pay they die, if they start flaming they die, if they pay I warp them to the exit. Not poding them would be bad for business.
But if you expect reinforcement that uses the pod as a warp in you HAVE to shoot the pod or you are dead. |

Have a rifter point and web the pod so it won't get away to reship until maybe 2 minutes later Those who cannot adapt become victims of Evolugalbugaslugakjlwsdhvbzxd Click for old school EVE Portraits: http://jadeconstantine.web44.net/Maison.htm |

You've heard the term "Self-Destruct" right?

Most people get caught in there pod are actually just waiting to be killed as you learn quickly how to get the pod away from anything that cant instalock you.
Funnier stuff with pods tends to happen when you know you have someone with a very expensive head on, and just web and warp scram them. Then you can run a quick book on how long it takes them to decide self-destruct is preferable to a potential 6 month journey to the gate/s. Then pop them 2 secs before the destruct kicks for added 'Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr'. "caught on fire a little bit, just a little."

I pod kill because I am always curious what kind of implants you have in your head. Also I want your corpse. |

There's always a chance that they have expensive implants, which means more KM's and more tears,or they might of forgot to update their clone, that one's always good. |
