I think a booster alt should be recorded on kill mails as a participant in the kill and it should show the boost or advantage that was given. Its a cop out today for people to claim "solo" but have boosters cloaked in system giving them advantage over truly solo pilots. And yes I know that would give away who's alts are related to who's mains. That's the point.
I know this will get a lot of hate, that's fine. The hate is going to come from those that cant get kills without their boosters anyway.

I don't see why everybody is so worried about killmails.
Just remove them from the game and we won't have dumb whine posts. |

The pilots won't stop using them if they suddenly appear on killmails.
And if OGBs are removed, just expect them to bring a falcon alt or some other type of alt that will make them win anyways. Or they will just start blobbing. |

OGB are on CCP's target list. CCP Fozzie hates them. They have hinted at T3 and command ship changes that they want to do in a blog already. By the time you got them 'added' to killmails they would probably be gone anyways.
Go to Sahtogas. Go to Kamela. Look at the Amarr comments in local over time. OGB are used by both sides. It isn't limited to one side of the conflict. |

This... I would love to see the abililty to OPTIONALLY send a killmail out when you're killed, just to annoy the KM wh0res as much as possible.
And wtf do you (OP) care who the booster was? If they're doing it right you will never be able to get them anyway, so wtf?
Friggin' whiners.... almost as bad as the high sec miners and the cloaky afk whiners. You don't like the game? Leave. More space for the rest of us.

I like killmails, and i use a booster alt. I have no problem with a booster alt appearing on my mails. Then, its pretty obvious when i go brawling 2 thrashers against 1 thrasher and still come out on top. The sort of intelligence required to put 1&1 together used to be a part of this game, now people just want things spelled out for them.
I can live with that. |

Actually, many would. A t1 frigate vs t1 frigate kill is worth 20 points on BC. A frigate + loki vs frigate would be worth something like 2-5 points.

Never going to happen, the outrage would sink CCP.
I do recall when killboards very very few and far between - I lived in a low-sec system and patrolled it with a Cruiser.
Plain old T1 cruiser. I got fights nearly every day from solo frigs, destroyers, cruisers, the ocational BC, etc. as well as a few 2v1 using similar ships. It was awesome. Beyond the need to replace a lost ship once in a while the combat was flowing on a steady rate.
Today everyone has a KB, and we all know how that ended up - the stats on it dictates what players do. I think it's amazing how we enslaved ourselves and our game-play to such a thing as positive/negative metric of "success" but let's be honest here - everyone wants to be winners, none wants to be losers. And then, when everyone defines "winner" as "best KB stats"?
We most definitely need booster bonuses and things like Remote Repair to show up on kill an loss mails. It would help give clearer pictures of what happened in fights and it would credit the boosters/logistics pilots beyond sticking some drones on the kill to ***** on them.

Killboards already give you a huge source of intel on anything anyway. What do people usually fly, when, where, along with who, fitted how, killing who and so on and so forth.
Adding who boosts them and who reps them will help out if only because it will be easier to set standings towards these toons and/or taking note of when they are around. It might not stop their use, but it makes things more clear to those who wish to know such things.
It detracts nothing, and adds better intel and more fair treatment of those involved - provided ofc that the boosters/logis are actually people and give a damn about their participation and KB stats.

Or you could grind isk and use that..... isk is stupid easy to get in this game if you have even half a working brain.
Simple fact - you play longer, you get more resources. You then use those resources to roflstomp the new, the
stupid, the bad, and/or the poor. That's no different than any other MMO.
But I get it, putting in some extra effort is hard. So CCP should hold your hand and make it better. |

LOL I've been playing eve since day one of release. Trust me isk is not an issue.
It's sad that you feel you need to pay for/grind isk to have two accounts just so you can feel competative. Awww poor baby.
You just keep trying to justify the 'requirement' of an alt/booster to yourself mate.
Meanwhile I"ll be out shooting **** and getting blown up with a big grin on my face.

Funny, you never complained about OGB'ing back when several of RIFTA's killboard leaders never flew without them.
(No, not KM or MB)
And I never said it was a requirement... there's alot of people who don't have them and do just fine. I'm just tired of seeing
baddies like the OP whining about them. Use them, don't use them, who cares? You win some, you lose some. To someone with 2 or 3 million skill points, a player with 60 or 100M SP might as well be flying with a booster even if they aren't. If you really care that much, go get your own - or stop coming to the forums making pointless whine threads about it. Adapt & overcome, or GTFO. |

Hmmm.....There were only a couple of guys I used to know/fly with in R1fta who actively used boosts and they used to pull off some insane stuff with them. And tbh I never flown with OGB until I joined the Amarr milita but I'm pretty sure I've not a 'complainer'. I actually like it when people feel they have to bring OGB's to fight me as it strokes my e-honor to full hardness 
And I'm pretty sure that my general posting philosophy on the forums is just as you have stated 'adapt or die'
I assumed (wrongly it seems) that you were one of the 'elite pro SOLO pvp'ers' who can't operate without an OGB. I appologise to such an assumption.
I however don't agree that SP makes that much of a difference as in reality you can only apply a max number of SP to any specific ship/fit you are flying so the extra SP is wasted on the old toons. R1fta and now R1der are pretty much proving this day in day out by just doing what they do.

Have you ever thought that it is ment to work like that, gang boosters are for to give advantage that is why you should use those too.
Gang boosting has been in game as long as i have played (about 7 years) so if you do not have gang booster you are doing something wrong. |

Getting more points on BC does not make you any better player. BC ranking tells something about player but it is not exact number to tell if you are good at pvp it just tells that you are doing something right to get more points than others. |

This killmail doesnt show the 2 Gilas and Rupture that were in the plex and trying to kill me also. Unluckily for them, because of my booster im faster than warrior II's.
FIX IT CCP, KILLMAILS HAVE TO ACCURATELY DEPICT THE EVENTS THAT UNFOLDED!!!!!! JUST BECAUSE THEY DIDNT KILL ME DOESNT MEAN THEY DONT SHOW UP ON THE KM!!!!!! lol |

Missing the point. I am neither too poor nor unable to train one. I choose not to use them as I feel it is a form of bending the original intent of PvP in this game. It give great advantage to one pilot over another, with no recognition of that advantage showing anywhere. It just needs to be shown on a kill mail. I play this game as a solo pilot, occasionally in fleets, and when I lose to a boosted pilot it should be shown that way. That's all I'm saying.

The original intent for pvp? For everyone to fly the same ships with the same fits and the same skills? |

I'm amazed how people take my original post as whining. It shows that those saying that don't truly understand what they are talking about, or maybe what they are reading.
All I'm saying is that the boost should show up on the KM because IT DOES greatly contribute to the ability of the ship being boosted.
And to Crosi above, not at all. A variety of different ships and fits and variables is great. I'm not even really saying OGB isn't a valid tactic because CCP allows it so therefore it's part of the game.
Just don't call it solo. If all your kills come with you being boosted your not a very good pilot IMO

Completely correct - I don't consider myself a better player than someone else just because I have 100 ranks on them.
However, it wasn't for killboards and ranking, I probably would have stopped playing a while ago. It gives me a fun goal in this game. |

Agree with OP , boost bitches can suck it 
We will never see anything except a mild nerf to T3 boosts, they will stay off grid and not much will change except maybe more use of command ships. Removing the off grid ability will NEVER happen, CCP like any smart company will not do anything that will lower their profit. Thousands of accounts will be canceled if they do.

OP didn't call for a nerf only an addition to the intel tools. I don't see why so many people are opposed to this, the kill mail shows ewar and will even show the whores in the ibis who only have a target lock so why not someone that contributes. They should also make it that when you kill someone that is boosted the booster shows on that killmail too.
