Re: Smacktalk, it has nothing to do with honoUr (long live the forgotten vowels!) i think, thats just a lack of respect or the opposition venting their anger at their own.. how to put it.. missaventures? or lack of skill in something? i cant think of a decent word, its food time you see.. hmm steak.

Honour(able) (<- english speeelling  ) - acting in a way that gains respect from those around you, even if those same people are your enemies.
That's roughly how I see it.. Though I know it's up to each individual as to whether they try to act honourable or not, and is interpreted in many different ways.
As for Eve, it's widely regarded as dishonourable if you use exploits etc to gain, or to break someone's trust, or simply to act in a way that others would rather you didn't do. This includes smacktalk in local for the most part  .
Personally I try to be "honourable" when possible, when I saw someone in a pod sitting next to a jet can outside a station, I helped them get their stuff back after they shot concord by accident - looting the can would have been soo evil and not me  . Interestingly, this same person is on -10 standing, and whenever I see them in 0.0 I shoot at them without question... odd little universe this "Eve" isn't it?

Honor is earned through good fights and not thru cheesy tactics like what G alliance uses.

This is a tough one.
Honor is defined by the individual only. So I can only speak for myself as to what I see as honorable.
Fighting alongside a mate knowing you have no chance of survival but that they might survive by your death.
Not attacking defenseless ships that clearly are not engaging. It's sort of like shooting the farmer's cow cuz you don't like the color of his barn. I do recognize that this is a hard one to do and mistakes will be made.
Acknowledging and compensating for errors. Everyone screws up but it is seldom you find people who accept the responsibility.
Keeping your word no matter what.
Be honest in your dealings.
Only choose war as a last resort, not a first resort.
Frankly, with what I see as honor it's amazing I get anything done. I'd love to see more like this way. In fact, have a cookie.

Watch out for the, Tholarim's modified tachoyon, Chowdowns modified shield booster, and the feared thelung187's modified flame thrower.
Actually I have a Chowdown's Reactor Recharger 45% from a auto-fleet command operation in EWOK. This rarely and briliant items are spawned in minimal 7 enemies bubbles.

there is no such thing as honour in war..
there never will be, its kill or be killed.
although you can be nice to your enemy sometimes and not pod him :P
I can tell you one thing that is not honourable while at war with a corp: Claiming 6.1m in isk losses when you've lost well over 250m isk in ships.
I know I'm gonna get flamed for arguing over such small numbers, but -PH- are becomming more and more rare these days.

I always consider honour as sticking by ones word, sticking to any rules of engagement that you may have and not breaking them whenever it suits you to do so, if you say you are going to do or not do something then stand by what you say.
Smack talk is a funny one really, what exactly is considered smack anyway? ...I think that hurling personal insults at each other over local is smack talk and that is just plain uncouth and really juvenile in my book. However I would also say that using words to make your opponent look foolish in public or even goading them into making them, make themselves look foolish isn't necessarily smack but is a kind of psychological warfare, there is perhaps a fine line though.

Lol, that killboard was new, kills were still being added and losses too. Infact the killboard is down now :/ but if I recall we have around 150mill losses to you that were posted before it broke.
As for our numbers, your looking in the wrong place ;p Try clicking here to see where we have been.
Anyway, I agree that claiming more kills etc is lame. However I think it comes under propaganda rather than being dishonourable.
Being honourable imo is respecting your enemy and not using exploits etc to accomplish ig tasks. Not breaking your word is another that would be on the top of my list.

Please post a link to your killboard. I'd like to see it when it comes back up.
