Hey Guys/Gals
I had a strange occurrence happen to me yesterday and thought i'd write a post to see if this is a bug or a new feature/ship killer.
I warped to an abandoned Mining Colony and saw the usual NPC's.. Started out on the frigates then boom 4 of my locked targets turned blue. A bit surprised i was trying to understand what was happening. Is my client playing up etc.
In the confusion i was being neut-ed webbed and scrammed. needless to say my HAC didn't survive and quite frankly i thought they were going to eat my pod to but this didn't occur.
Has anyone else seen this type of thing.

OMG still the flaming occurs. so much anger.
Still nobody has addressed the subject of this thread. It doesn't say "Hey come and flame me"

Normal NPCs do not turn into drifters, Drifters do not turn blue. You got confused and it got you killed. |

I wonder if it is to do with this Serpentis Event. I have some tasks that say things like Kill 5 Drifter BS or Killer a Drifter with a frigate (cos that's going to happen). So I wonder if CCP have up'd the Drifters so people can do the Serpentis tasks.
I've been on a couple of missions where the NPC was blue and turned red, but not many, and they didnt turn onto Drifters they just went form blue to red. |

Me thinks you don't know how to read killboard stats.
Clearly someone with that kind of number (mine is 0.0 with only a single, crappily fit ship, lost to PvP) does not care about ship to ship PvP and is playing the game in a way that doesn't use Killboards as a measure of 'fun'. It also doesn't mean a darned thing about mechanics.
Apparently you play differently, that's fine, but disparaging someone else's play style and then assuming they don't know what they are doing is more apt to make you look hypocritical and foolish. None of this benefits anyone here on the boards either so please post constructively and with an understanding that people play differently.
Fubar:
I've seen some odd stuff doing this kind of thing and while I've never seen this exact thing happen, I won't discount it not being possible. The engine behind all this just references a database. If something happened in that database to update whatever table of 'foes' you were facing, yeah, they could all magically change into 'whatever'.
I'd probably call what happened to you a glitch and move on. If it happens again, note the time (as precisely as possible), system and if you can bookmark the site. Put in a support ticket and someone at CCP will look at it sometime in the next 6 months. You might even get your ship back. If you have that data now for the incident as it happened, you can probably do that too. Always understand that computers generally only do what they are told to so glitches happen because we humans are far from perfect.

I think instead of numbers it's more of a look at previous kills diagnosis. He seems to be baited A LOT, which could make people think he doesn't understand the mechanics, or even running some sort of bot.
As you stated, you can learn a lot about someone's play style by their killboard. I think most people understand that green doesn't mean noob, but getting baited 3 times in a row...well, that is possibly a "noob", or someone that doesn't understand the mechanics, also called "noob". |

The totals don't matter. The fact that he has a hundred losses and almost every one indicates a lack of understanding is what matters. Anyone with a shred of experience can see that clear as day from the first few examples.
Not to mention OP literally just asked how rat aggro works. He's been playing for years and hasn't figured out how to pvp OR pve.
Which is basically what happens when you join a tax evasion corp and refuse to engage with the community. OP reaps his own rewards.

So, if you're at a beacon and Drifters are patrolling the system, sometimes they'll end up at the beacon where you're pewpewing. They seem to take any sort of on-grid, anti-NPC weapons fire as aggression against them, I think; or maybe it's that aggressive drones pew them and start the doooooooom.
Either way, welcome to fighting Drifters! :D

Right, because the hallmark of a great PvP'er is 110 deaths and 2 kills, one of which is a customs office. Well I guess that's pretty good if you're a Pandemic ******. Also, please point out any ganks on my killboard. Is that how you make yourself feel better after losing multiple fleet engagements, you convince yourself that you were just ganked instead? |

Not the read I was talking about. Yes, the player may totally suck about it and I am not one to comment on their given skill or even what they are asking about. The player may not CARE about that stuff, so if we completely disregard the OP's original observations, you'd have a point. I am less willing to just toss out their observations.
Is it possible to have something appear to be one then then really be another... by mechanics, certainly, but that's not what it's sounding like has happened here from the players perspective. If their locked targets were something then 'poof' became something else, that doesn't sound like mechanics, that sounds like a glitch.
The Killboard shows the player doesn't care about PvP, and yes, maybe they fall for the sucker punch every time, so yes, they may not know the details about it (They are using an MTU on a regular basis and that is always asking for trouble). It's not a reason to degrade and demean them while assuming they have somehow misread their display. It's entirely possible that their description is accurate as to what happened and everyone that has played this game for any length of time has experienced weirdness. I've had a last remaining target NPC Cruiser go from 50% structure left to full shields/armor/hull and had to take it down again.
So my comments were talking about taking the bigger picture into consideration and not just shoe horning a Killboard into an assumption about how people are or how they play. People can take time to learn things, it doesn't mean they're stupid or that they didn't see what they saw.

This thread lost me a couple posts in, but that's normal as I do not really understand the jargon (WTF is a "pew-pew?), but somebody mentioned a kill-board link that I never saw. Only thing I do know is CCP has launched some rather nasty rats; one entered a belt where I had two well tanked Skiffs working. I never did receive much damage but it took forever for my ten Hammerhead 2's to kill it. but then CCP paid me 2.5 mil for the kill. I doubt there are any full blown "experts" in this game; there are so many different ways to play and then, once you seem to get your own little part in hand then CCP nerfs this, buffs that and changes it so that it's not really the same game anymore. Kind of cool, that: Keeps people awake.

"Pew-Pew" is a slang term for combat and it's child activities. In EVE it generally is used to describe ship to ship PvP.
Yes, there are some nasty RATs out there. Drifters and Sleepers (and during the event Serpentis and Angels) can be lurking with some nasty ships. My only advice is never engage the Circadian Sleepers, they are a mess to tangle with. The Serpentis and Angel Cartel ships can suck up some damage but they don't do much. I solo the shipyard sites in my Cruiser. They force me into armor and I have to turn my armor enhancers on and spot turn on my rep module, but I don't have to burn Cap batteries which is a sign their DPS is poor. I wouldn't really consider them too nasty unless your ship isn't fitted or flow properly.
Killboard links generally aren't allowed outside of the Crime and Punishment section. They tend to be used as a way to brag about ones skills in ship to ship PvP, but they can also be used in a way to attack other players and their perceived 'skills', thus as a rule they are restricted in use in the forums.
I apologize if any of my posts helped create confusion for you. I've been known to be less than clear at times and have to come back and re-explain my intent.

(WTF is a "pew-pew?),
Some digging back in the mental archive. To it's origin use in game lingo. its old to ancient in use.
" Context of eve has sound? "
Pew-pew is the sound of weapons fire one might imagine wile listening to other audio inputs during game play.
pew-pew interchangeable / synonym word for shoot, fight, brawl. |

I do believe it was a Shadow of the Serpentis site. You may have hit the nail on the head. I did return too loot my wreck in a rookie ship with no agro (which I also found strange). The Drifters where still roaming.
