Stu Pendisdick Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2011.02.10 18:47:00 - [6] Originally by: Murq fking wut? rephrase? /me puts on his 'Proper English' hat. Is shooting at things that cannot shoot back, such as pods, shuttles, freighters etc. considered non-sporting? Is there any honor in killing something that can in no possible way harm you in return? Just curious...........

Just curious........... If it space police, you get 900 bonus points for killing them If not, grow a pair and fight a real target!
Murq The Priesthood The 0rphanage	Posted - 2011.02.10 18:50:00 - [8] What a ridiculous question. What game are you playing?
Brynhilda Amarr Gun Metal Hit Sqaud	Posted - 2011.02.10 18:50:00 - [9] In the long run, it's not going to help your reputation much as a combat pilot unless its with a ship that also can't shoot back like an industry or miner. Then its hilarious.

Just curious........... Lets start with the reverse, it is the cold harsh universe of eve, whats wrong with the above in a cold harsh universe?

Stu Pendisdick Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2011.02.10 18:57:00 - [11] I'm not questioning the 'cold harsh' environment of EvE. I am questioning the (lack of?) bragging rights when crowing over a kill that couldn't possibly do anything to you in return. I mean, what skill DOES it take to kill a pod? a Shuttle? How much tank do you need to fend them off while you finish the kill? This isn't about 'is it right' or 'is it legal' or 'should it be allowed'. It is simply questioning the puffed up bravado od someone who specializes in killing things that pose no threat to them at all. Sort of like, where is the honor of beating a baby to death? Doesn't stop some people from doing it, and some even brag about it while they await their turn at the chair. Just makes me question the motive, that's all. With Shuttles and Freighters, I guess I can see a certain motive in the 'pinata factor', not knowing what may drop, but pods? Unless they have started dropping implants, I really don't get the podding thing at all.

Stu Pendisdick Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:00:00 - [13] Originally by: Brynhilda Podding is like Halo's version of teabagging. I'm sorry, but that reference is meaningless to me. I've never played 'Halo', and I have no earthly idea what 'teabagging' in 'Halo' is.
Brynhilda Amarr Gun Metal Hit Sqaud	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:01:00 - [14] Basically, its the ultimate insult to a defeated foe. It shows someone's incompetence to allow themselves to get podded.
De'Veldrin Minmatar Self Preservation Society the 2nd Dead Terrorists	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:01:00 - [15] It's no different than hunting or fishing tbh. --Vel Originally by: Blacksquirrel This is EVE. PVE can happen anywhere at anytime. Be prepared.

It shows someone's incompetence to allow themselves to get podded. So, bad luck or a crappy connection have never caused anyone to get podded? It's always been incompetence? Really?
Brynhilda Amarr Gun Metal Hit Sqaud	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:07:00 - [17] Not my fault that they have bad luck. Heck. I've been podded for bad luck. Podding also sets them back isk for implants as well.

Podding also sets them back isk for implants as well. That's not what you said. You said they were incompetent for allowing themselves to be podded. So I ask again. How is bad luck, server lag or a crappy ISP equal to personal incompetence?
Brynhilda Amarr Gun Metal Hit Sqaud	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:19:00 - [20] Just bad luck there, then.

Captain Die Suicide by Cop	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:28:00 - [21] Getting your ship blown up is like a slap in the face. Getting podded is like getting punched in the ****. --- DIE - EVE-O's SADOMASICHIST I WHO HAVE NOTHING!
Christopher AET Segmentum Solar The Jagged Alliance	Posted - 2011.02.10 19:34:00 - [22] Turn this on it's head. What if you can tie up an entire corp in lowsec for over two hours using a disposable alt in a shuttle. Now that's sport!

Show me your scars to prove it. 'No different than hunting' my ass. You clearly do a different form of hunting than many people. Fishing is very low risk (barring "extreme" fishing your biggest worry is drowning and not the fish), hunting for deer with a rifle is very low risk (your biggest risk is being shot by another hunter and not the deer suddenly charging you). There are exceptions to this just like that you could argue that brushing your teeth requires great skill because you did it skydiving one time. It's a game, there is no real honor to any activity. Also often times podding has a good use of taking them far away from returning with a ship to kill you while you loot such as in a WH fight.

How is bad luck, server lag or a crappy ISP equal to personal incompetence? I suppose you would see no sport in hunting a boar with a machine gun? What about the lulz?

Really? Every hunt boar with a buck knife? Show me your scars to prove it. 'No different than hunting' my ass. Ever hunt dear with a rifle? That's a lot like shooting shuttles with...well anything. Hunting boars with a buck knife is hardly hunting something that cannot hurt you and fails your first premise - that you are killing something which cannot harm you.

Syndryna	Posted - 2011.02.10 20:16:00 - [29] "Honor" in internet spaceships. Lulz.

I've never played 'Halo', and I have no earthly idea what 'teabagging' in 'Halo' is. Calling troll on this but Halo is a first person shooter and there is a fucntion called crouching that is used to get behind cover. Teabagging is the act of crouching over your dead enemies over and over again to imitate putting a man's "teabag" in their face. Mostly as a giant "screw you" to your victims.
