...because there's a good chance their clone is at least a few more jumps away, which gives you a bit more time to get all the phat lewt before they come back.

In a game where nearly all wealth is player controlled, it is easy to defend the idea that reducing my enemies' wealth increases mine in a relative way.
If I could burn all of everyone's assets, my Stabber would make me the king of space. Mustache |

One may do more damage with a podkill than the ship kill.
Plus its kind of fun Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

When I roam to null, I also request to be podded out when my ship inevitably explodes. 30j in a pod is TEDIOUS, don't you know? I feel I'm doing my target a service. Also, corpses. OK, mostly corpses. You should see my hanger tab in my POS... I write a blog. I think people read it. http://throughnewbeyes.wordpress.com

Yeah, I understand what you're saying but, when someone's pod killed the station they end up in might be no where near you.
As for surviving they usually hit soft targets anyway (if high-sec) so there's not much risk to them. |

I kill pods because Kevin McCarthy showed me they were dangerous! If I tried to make a type of coffee that made all of you happy, and you rated it, the group score for it would be about 60 out of 100. Break into 3 or 4 coffee clusters, and made coffee just for each cluster, the scores would go from 60 to 78. The difference between coffee at 60 and coffee at 78 is a difference between coffee that makes you wince or makes you happy. |

Just roll up another alt. In this game, that will net you far more gains than blowing something up with any "relative wealth" adjustments.
As to the OP:
3 primary reasons:
1) Tactical. It removes "eyes" from an area and such.
2) Killmail score keepers (the KB huggers as they are known).
3) Grief - the griefer mindset. The more they can cause misery/grief to others, the happier they are.
Other rare reasons - -- bounties on players are paid on pod-kills, not ship kills. -- AFK pilot - warn; then pop the ship, warn again; then pop the pod to remove a "freebie kill" from opponents during war or PvP roams (falls under #1 above but not thought of as such by many). |

Practical Reason: Force off field, material denial (kill the pod, kill the imps on the pod), disproves any doubts that you have an agressive mentallity (i.e., you'ld be willing to kill a pod rather than showing mercy and letting him go)
Non-Practical Reason: Add insult to injury
To sum it up, like George Carlin once said, "Because they're pests...and it's fun!" |
