Currently Eve sends out kill mails to those involved in a kill. These mails are parsed by any number of tools and put out on the internet for all to see. I think it would be much more fun if Eve hosted the killboard themselves. Not only would it be fun, it would add some legitimacy to kill mails which can currently be edited and faked.
What would you think about the killboard? What features should it have? (For example, search by pilot or corporation) and so on.
Id love to see the board be searchable as well as be deployed as a web service. This would allow corporat sites to check the kill board and display kills for their pilots as well as fan sites to keep a list of the pvp pilots with the most kills.
Lets have a brain storm of ideas. =)

NO.
CCP supported wang-waving is not a good idea.
That said, ELO style rankings were planned (but have prolly slided to way down to the lowest priority).

Derisor, why do you insist on reposting and restarting discussion done ten times over already ?
It's no use, there's not going to an official killboard, period.

I dont recall ever posting this. As for other people posting it *shrug* make a search functionality and dev tracker and I will search and look at dev posts. Until then you are pointing the finger at the wrong person.

Remove kill mails from the game entirely.
Nothing more annoying than watching geeks post "teh leet wtfpwning" from last night in local.
Wow, I got a kill. I must make sure EVRYONE sees it.

Resounding NO.
Eve should be more about having fun than worrying about how many people you kill.
If there's an "Official Killboard", then I want an "Official Miningboard" and an "Official Productionboard" and last but not least, an "Official Forum Whiningboard".

Well, no hes not really. This one HAS come up a bajillion times before... no CCP has never officially responded that I'm aware of (course I'm unfortunately not omnipotent!), but whatever, they aren't going to do it.
E-Peen measurements suck...

No search functionality and I have never seen the topic discussed. *shrug* No dev response on the issue, no dev tracker.
Dont complain about people posting the same topics as before because then there would be nothing to post about. Certainly dont complain if there is no search fucntionality or dev tracker.
Why cant you merely state your opinion or ignore the thread?

Yes its a large part of why I play the game as well. But I'm still not interested in a juvenile e-peen measurement system, which an offical killboard WILL encourage. Look at corp killboards as an example... only reason I keep one for MASS is in response to other corps having one. If we all agreed to get rid of'em I'd be first in line to agree. They really do nothing except promote bragging, bashing and jeering. Juvenile, infantile, idiotic behaivour

yes.
they should make one.
as our friend from evolution said "wang measuring" is already in there.
evolution was one of those who liked to show their "wang" the most.
the reason i think CCP should make one is simple.
no more adding things up from 6 different sites to get a decent picture
no more killmails in my mailbox=no more mail lag during combat.

...and how's he supposed to know that? Oh .. he could use the forum search tool? 
It's annoying when ideas that have been done to death 1,000 times over crop up again, sure, but don't blame the guy who cropped it up. HE doesn't know it was done to death 1,000 times over, and thanks to the wonderful extra facilities provided on this board  , he has no way to find out.

Well you are entitled to your opinion of course.  However, in a game where "territory" is hazy at best and there are no front lines, kills scored are pretty much the only measure of progress against an enemy.

Because it annoys me ?
Sure, go ahead and repost every single subject ever discussed on these forums again, and again, and again.
Simple fact is, you wont get your discussion going because people have already responded to these subjects countless times. Just because you are too lazy to use google (helps sometimes) doesn't mean we should all just appreciate your drivel.
p.s. If you dont even know this was discussed 1000 times already then you post more then you read, which is by definition not good. You get information from reading. This and just about every other post you make clearly suggests to me that you should be reading mroe and talking less.

Why can't I just say whatever I please? Oh wait I can.
We all know these forums don't have a search but there are work arounds, such as google. Eve-I.com has a dev post tracker tool as well.
Don't blame lack of tools for your own ignorance when they do exist, albeit in non-perfect form.

No forum seach - no killboard - its not combat related or bug related hence CCP dont seem to care about it. Period a offical killboard wont happen its to good an idea to put in if it was every considered ie when i buy out CCP shares hehe and run the company lol. Then a 30 minute delay would be a good idea to avoid giving away player locations immediatley or even 1 hour delay.

Quite. From personal experience I have seen what happens when people become addicted to the kill board. Suddenly corp chat is full of words like, "leet!" and "<fill in the blank> ftw!" and "omg I wtfpwnd!" and "I r0x0r, gained 2 places on Eve-kills!". It's amazing that a kill board can change a normally reasonable mixed role corp into a Counter Strike chatroom in a matter of minutes. 
btw: I'm not fat, I just wrap my willy around my waist (no need to wave my wang ).

anyone that posts killmails as a badge of lunacy (spam) can always be blocked ie hteir message dont show up if they become annoying that way you miss their waste of typing space.

As for the subject no offical killboard should be setup, it would just encourage even more ganking...

No!
1) any list the devs provide would be metagaming, if you want a list make one for yourself.
2) lists provide glory for unwanted behavior.
3) would provide capture the flag mentality, people would take advantage of it, ie spawn a newbie ship let their friend kill their alts so their friend can get a higher score count.
Terrible idea. sorry nothihing personal

Just because some people are too small minded to understand the game doesn't mean the rest of us should be dragged down to their level. Combat should be a means to an end.

I'm not a killmail driven person. But i understand that some people are, and they are proud of there records - fair play to em. Its not small minded of them or making up for inadquacies ... its just the way they like to play.
With this in mind, CCP are the ONLY people who can make an accurate killboard, one that cannot be cheated or have mails ... er .. forgotten to be posted
So I say YES. This would be a nice addition.

If you want a game based on body count, there are MANY excellent games out there for that. Go play one of them. Eve has already been simplified by this mentality, and I don't want to see that trend continue.

Killmails are bad enough...
We don't need CCP to be wasting time on a ladder system, a killboard, a frag chart, or an e-peen throb-o-meter of any kind...
When ppl start spweing about killmails in local, on corp chat or on TS even, my eyes gloss over...
But hey, some ppl play games for different reasons, but Killmails in EVE are for player informational purposes only, to see who did what to you, etc.
I wouldn't mind if killmails were removed, I delete all mine anyways...
