Its pretty simple, there should be a possibility to catch pods and bring them to an ingame Prison. Those Prisons should be Time Capsules where the catched player has to stay for some time. I would say 1 day up to 1 week
various features could be implemented that catching other players do not get too easy. Maybe need of special modules, having at least 5-10 people involved in the capturing process, and a special prison fee
please add your ideas, this should bring consequences to the game for liars, traitors and scammers. I feel those are needed because they are missing at the moment! How about we do it for posters that have consistently proved they have absolutely no idea what they're talking about instead?

I feel that it is my duty to point out idiocy, stupidity and just plain trolling, you're guilty of all three, besides you asked for feedback and ideas, I've provided both. Now please insert another coin to continue.

Nope I'm not angry at all, if I was I wouldn't be sat here chortling to myself at the amount of crap contained in 99% of your posts. You seem to have an extremely high opinion of both yourself and your ideas, despite the amount of ridicule they bring upon you.
I believe that's called hubris, and it has been the downfall of many a man.
edit - oooo scary, I've now been blocked by yet another shiptoaster for disagreeing with them, oh well not my loss. OP you are about as wrong, in your perception of what Eve is, as you can get without being Ace.

check the edits, in the OP, there are some really good ideas if you are able to open up your blocked mind
Despite having been blocked for pointing out that you are a troll, I must ask you to point out these good ideas, because I just can't see them. In fact my cat has posted better ideas by parking her backside on the keyboard.
This is my cat, bask in her cuteness, for she is an infinitely better poster than the OP

yes please open up your own threads and discuss about all the stuff you do not understand, you people are anoying and do not add anything to the topic I thought I was blocked? you can't even do that right.
When you actually post something worth discussing, and do it in readable English (complete with punctuation and capitalisation), then I'll stop pointing out your obvious trolling/ misunderstanding. I understand what you're suggesting and I'm telling you that it is the epitome of a bad idea, as are a lot of other people. I realise you see yourself as one man against the world, but tbh you may as well be King Canute trying to stop the tide, he suffered from hubris as well. The poster above me has the right of it, you and Ace are 2 of the worst posters to ever grace these forums, you make Tom Gerard look good.

I may well be wrong about King Canute suffering from hubris, my history classes are 30 years in the past. It still doesn't mean that Harry's idea is good though.

There are consequences for scamming, however the consequences are down to you to enforce and devise. Your jail mechanic is just plain bad, and would be abused by all and sundry if it ever came to be.
Malcanis's law would be a relevant quote right about now.

EVE Offline, pay not to play! votingrights should only be possible conected with game mechanics, like mentioned simular to the killrights you get scammed you get a voting right, mechanics could be implemented for basic and obvious scams So I can lie about being scammed to get a vote?

The analogy was certainly valid. The alternative (and anagrammatic) spelling of Canute would actually be more valid for the purposes of this thread though.

I have been the "victim" of the margin trading scam, my response to it was to evemail the guy, ask him how he managed to pull it off, and then congratulate him on its execution. Knowledge is power, I know how the scam works, therefore I won't fall for it again.
Harry's idea is so open to abuse that it's ridiculous, although he can't see that because it's his idea and therefore an excellent one.

Again, folks are missing the idea of what a sandbox is -- players would want a prison as well. Being that it is a sandbox game, those mechanics and game play are equally valid. Cops and robbers gameplay is classic and works in concept and reality. Really want to be a criminal RP the part, but there's risks vs rewards to also think about (and criminals aren't babies that need devs to hand hold them to even play). If players want a prison system then it's up to the players to build one, and all the necessary infrastructure to support it. If Harry want to punish scammers then he has to do it using the existing mechanics, instead of asking CCP to do it for him.

No undocking is nowhere in the list so no "game mechanic" is there for any "Retribution". Now the idea is putting in an actual risk for something that is well riskless.
I know how the scams work, although I can think of several "scammers" that would disagree with how you think they work. I'll even give you a couple of names of "scammers" that undock, Miilla and Erotica 1, both of which I am sure would love you to try and gain some retribution.
Scams only work because the "mark" is too stupid or greedy to read properly.

In fact I've managed to summarise about 90% of your posts in this thread into less than 40 words.
I see that you've still failed to block me, even though you said you'd done it several pages ago, here's a hint click on my name to the left and select hide posts, it's not that hard.

Scams only work because the "mark" is too stupid or greedy to read properly. So your saying that those two own all the other accounts that don't bother undocking and hide behind their anonymity. I also don't consider Erotica a scammer as he/she tells you exactly what to do. Retribution isn't gained when they undock and then redock. As i tried your suggestion and it's still kind of hard to pew pew inside a station. I don't consider Erotica as a scammer either, hence the quotation marks.

And both are worthless because the criminal can escape by podding, since NPCs don't kill pods like players can (and most of them don't bother as they're auto-piloting or in a rush).
So what you're saying is that CCP should make Concord pod criminals because players are too damn lazy to do it themselves? GTFO.
If you want to instigate consequences for criminal activity beyond what already exists then get out there and encourage players to get off their collective backside and do something about it, instead of relying on CCP to apply a band-aid.
It's up to players to provide consequences over and above the already existing ones, CCP have given the players a toolbox, it's up to the players to use it.
