Basically, what CONCORD does is instead of destroying your ship, the target it and perform every method of electronic warfare possible on it, and then they force-eject your pod from your ship and prevent you from boarding ships until the countdown completes. Everytime you undocked with a ship, they would do the same thing to that ship.
Obviously, you wouldn't get the same treatment if you were playing as a pirate character (see my other brainstorming thread), or if you it were a repeated offense.
Just a thought to make the game more believable. This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

Think about it. If you murdered a man in real-life with a gun, would the police blow up your car with a Rocket Launcher, or would they impound your car and send you to prison?
Or perhaps you could replace 'murder' with 'drug trafficking', take your pick. This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

If you shoot at them or other people, they won't ask questions and just shoot back. Think about it. Looking for more thoughts? Read my blog or follow me on Twitter. |

If I shot someone, I'd probably get shot before I did it again.
With this system, I'd never lose a ganking ship again. Literally zero risk not suicide ganking? Yes please. |

Obviously, if you had a low security status or repeatedly did it, then it would be a problem.
And CONCORD would impound the ship and you would have to pay a fine to pay it back, depending on how much you spent on it and how serious the offence was and how low your security status is. If you have a low enough Security Status to get a bounty, they would still just blow you up. If you commited too many crimes, they would still blow you up. If you attacked a CONCORD officer, they would blow you up. If you used a Smartbomb on someone or if you podded someone, they would blow you up. If you simply attacked someone without having permission to do so, they would capture and impound your ship. This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

So...
Why?
If they're going to kill your ship most of the time anyway, what's the point? |

Sometimes, do things on accident. A friend of mine was invited to a PvP recently, but they forgot to canflip the person, so when they attacked CONCORD swarmed them and blew up for ship. Or you might be doing a Courier Contract and end up transporting illegal goods without knowing it.
I also think that it would be more realistic, more believable.
You do know that not everyone has -2.0 Security Status, right? You do know that not everyone pods people, right? You do know that not everyone does things multiple times, right? You do know that not everyone lives in Low-Sec, right? You do know that not everyone knows everything about High-Sec PvP, right?
I don't like sounding like a troll, but you need to get it in your head that alot of actions and ideas have a reason behind them. I may look like I'm trying to be a troll but sometimes it is the only option when trying to talk to idiots who don't think about what people say before they start bitching about how their ideas suck when really they might have some potential. Go ahead and report this post, but remember that I am saying all of this for your own good.
STOP BEING OBLIVIOUS TO THE WORLD AROUND YOU. Get your mind out of the criminal world of null-sec for once.
Think from the point of view of someone with a high security status. Think from the point of view of a newbie who doesn't know the rules of engagement in High-Sec. Think from the point of view of a person who doesn't pod people 24/7. Think from the point of view of a man who doesn't want to lose his expensive ship on accident. This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

So... Forgetting to can-flip before attacking someone out of the blue... Like a poorly prepared, premeditated crime, does not warrant punishment by Concord?
Plus, as the impounding of the ship scales with it's worth, a permanent impound (destruction) is the same...
So I'll stick to rule number 1:
Don't fly ships you can't afford to loose
or
Fly PVP in frigates until you can afford bigger ships--- |

you are not murdered. your ship is destroyed. your clone would be intact. and if so. you're just a clone. so no harm done. it is only inconvenient. |

Imagine CONCORD less as a "modern police force" that issues citations for merely pushing people and more of a "grizzled 'old west' sheriff" that enforces destruction with destruction to make a point on where the "line" is... and nothing more (because "boys will be boys").

And I don't think the customs police can see through courier wrapping paper.
Also...
Quote:You do know that not everyone has -2.0 Security Status, right? Don't you want to be one of the cool kids? You do know that not everyone pods people, right? You're dumb if you don't remove the enemy's ability to continue gathering intel on you. You do know that not everyone does things multiple times, right? Are we playing the same game here? Don't you have to buy stuff and fit ships? You do know that not everyone lives in Low-Sec, right? You're missing out. It's a barrel of monkeys here! You do know that not everyone knows everything about High-Sec PvP, right? See previous quotation.
Aaaaaand...
Quote:Think from the point of view of someone with a high security status. "Hey... I have sec to burn. Which poor sob deserves my wrath!" Think from the point of view of a newbie who doesn't know the rules of engagement in High-Sec. I was there (ba dum tish). And see two quotes above. I had to learn. Just as every other nubbin does. Think from the point of view of a person who doesn't pod people 24/7. As someone who lives in low-sec... I am this person. I often become overwhelmed with disappointment. Think from the point of view of a man who doesn't want to lose his expensive ship on accident. I take a shot... calculate how long it would take me gather up enough money to buy a new one... take another shot... imagine better ways of earning ISK faster... take another shot... say "**** it" and fly into the... DAAANGAAAAAA ZOOONE!!! GÖ˝

Just because a friend didn't can flip before firing, or someone you know wants to haul illegal stuff, doesn't mean your idea is a good one or needed.
I say, no thanks to your idea as it's a bad one.

You mean like the one you get for unprovoked aggression in hisec that apparently everyone shuts off the first time it pops up? |
