I think that your wallet should behave more like a real wallet. If you get podded, the contents of the wallet would be available to whichever entity got you. That said, there would need to be other changes, such as being able to leave ISK in a station in situations when you believe combat to be inevitable and podding likely. I simply feel that this change would increase the realism of the game world, and also increase the profitability of PvP for those who are smart (since we all know, pirate isn't actually a well-paying career as CCP would have you believe in their ads).
tl:dr ISK should be a physical item, carried in your wallet (in your pod) and should be dropped on death. However, you could also leave the physical item in a safe place if you were undertaking a dangerous voyage. |

You could at least drop your ISK ATM card when podded. |

If you would like to drop your ISK on death, please feel free to do so.
The rest of us, however, will continue being spacerich. |

ATM cards need a code to work. Credit Cards need to be checked with ID and/or a signature. Both can have illegal transactions reversed on them.
Honestly... the way it is now is more realistic. I certainly would not be carrying dropable money around in EVE.
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.

Not to be funny but from a personal stand-point unless I'm going out with friends to a pub or nightclub, there just isn't any need to carry real money on me anymore... Credit / Debit Cards are not only considerably lighter but are accepted everywhere and are insured against fraudulent transactions if they are stolen.
The reality is our own civilisation is shifting away from physical money, especially with most public transport (Taxi, Train, Bus, Tram, even the Rental Bikes) accepting Debit Cards; via mobile transaction devices.
It isn't even hard to imagine that within the next 20-30 years we might no longer even have a need for physical cards, instead having accounts purely base on things like Fingerprint, Retina, DNA, etc... with Eve being 40,000 years in the future (it's the 421st Century AD if you read the history) with the ability to transfer entire consciousness instantly across inter-galactic distances; really it is safe to assume for Capsuleers who REQUIRE several implants to the brain that there are a myriad of checks that would happen instantly to verify your the correct account holder.
There is no 'physical' money used in Inter-Galactic Trade... like AT ALL.
To me this sound like little more than someone wanting more than just Bounty Payments and Modules to drop from kills, sorry but if being a Pirate isn't paying the bills then you might want to re-think your career option because you're not very good at it. |
