Usual arguments for this generic kill are:
- "I can". Everything told, here. - "silent them". Er??? Pirate-wise, it increases the visibility of the system in the map. By killing the pod, you get it silenced in local... and a big danger mark in the global map, telling everyone to carry more force, or more caution, where crossing your system. -"raise the price of implants". Ok if you manufacture them, but otherwise? -"as real life". It is fascinating how many people in EVE seem to play from favelas in Brasil suburbia. Wait, I have been there and I have never been killed inside of the pod. -"trophy" That could have sense, because in the killboards a hi-sec pod killing is, arguably, scored same that a battle-situation low sec.
What I am a bit surprised is that the times this topic emerges in the forum, people does not like to look at the ritual/etnological side of the issue. I'd like to heard about it. Does it build community? Does it correct some problem in the game, by hardeninng the players?
Instead of coming here, you should contact a certain CSM vice chairman with a obscure blog about 'bullying'.
I hear that he's a real expert on the subject.

You can do whatever you want in EVE.
So you can choose to be in pod in h-sec.
You're doing it wrong.
Also, click warp if someone puts you in one

Skulls and Bones.... why pick that? Hmmm.. oh wait guys.... we're totally wrong about this thread. This is a "podkilling is Bush's fault" thread. Thanks Bush.

OP, if you got podded in any sort of space, you deserved it. In 99% of all the cases you could have escaped and chose not to.
Pod kills before Victor Andall knew how to save his pod: 2 Last Pod kill: 157 days ago, 30 days after starting to play
Pod kills after Victor Andall learned how to save his pod: 0
As you can see, learning how to save your pod can lead to up to a 100% reduction in pod losses. I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

I always wondered if there was a space Bush in EVE.
Then I realised there HAVE to be space bushes somewhere, otherwise the Federation Navy ship choice of camo would just be downright silly! BoBwins Law: As a discussion/war between two large nullsec entities grows longer, the probability of one comparing the other to BoB aproaches near certainty. |

Well... lets say 95%.. and that is if you stay out of nullsec and wormholes. Go to lowsec where smartbombs are more common and you're liable to loose a few pods.

Your in a catch 22. CCP says that when you undock your consenting to fight. You can scam and shoot new players all you want. But if you bring up politics ....oh dear. The plex for good is a prime example of what I mean. People were getting wardeced and bothered. Their ransom was a plex for good and the dec was lifted. That is against the law and called coercion. However nothing was done about that. Now need I bring up the monocal scandal? I don't think so. You have a better chance at a fair fight with a spiked baseball bat fighting zombies. I am waiting for the day a plex gets stolen and charges are filed. It wouldn't suprise me. |
