Came in here to post this, pleasantly surprised to see that it's already been posted. People are KM *****s. I wouldn't be sad to see the entire KM system go. +1 +2
Portmanteau Fumar Puede Matar	Posted - 2010.12.23 13:21:00 - [2] Originally by: Geanos Edited by: Geanos on 23/12/2010 12:31:08 Originally by: youknow who Its killmail's and killboards. Some time ago I said that this problem would be solved by removing victim's name/corporation/alliance from the killmail and transferring the focus from loss to win. This should make people concentrate on getting more fights/fun rather than avoiding fights (and nasty comments) until they are 100% they can win (blob). This is why in EVE, you usually need to spend a lot of time to get some PVP making it a unpopular among people not willing to spend hours just to get a few fights. Making the killboard look like a person's CV where you put in the strong/positive aspects (kills) and no negative aspects (losses) would encourage people to take more risks and PVP more. edit: spelling that's only half the job. while removing the embarrassment factor may encourage more fights, this will not DISCOURAGE blobbing to hoover up KMs and minimize losses, complete removal of KMs would. Ofc CCP could revamp the KM system and internalize it adding ur "nameless" mails and SEVERELY penalizing blob mails on scoring while rewarding 1v1 etc. Altho this has a downside in that it penalizes scoring on "even" fleet engagements, so I prefer just removing them altogether

Killmails are just the documentation of ones activities success/failures. ... I don't fight because of my killboard I fight because I like fighting. Sorry but blobbing, smartbombing gates and other lame/tedious/***edly unchallenging forms of fighting imply that for some* the KM (in any shape or worthless form) and the collection of as many of them as possible, is more important than the fight itself.

Whoever has more SP / the better ship wins. Absolute, 100% pure unadulterated BS. Prove it. really ? have you ever visited my eve ?
