Hi, I've been venturing deeper into low sec space and experienced an increased level of violence, which led to these questions:
1. Can I pod a pilot if I have kill rights on him? (I think it's NO unless he is in his pod which makes it his 'current ship')
2. Can I pod if said pilot is a war target?
3. Can I pod if pilot is outlaw? How about if pilot is criminally flagged (flashing red)?
4. Bounty can only be claimed if the pilot is podded, right?
5. Are there 'nice' pirates out there who don't pod unless there's a bounty on your head? This seems to have happened to me.
6. Are there pirates who choose not to pod because he doesn't want to loose so much sec status for it?
Thx

1. yes you can as you have "killrights"
2. yes you can
3. yes if you are in low sec, or has -5.0 sec rating, yes if he is flagged
4. yes you need to kill him to get the bounty on his head
5. some pirates dont pod cause it has a big sec hit which means you cant travel back to high sec easily without an alt, whereas if you only ship kill then you only get a small amount of sec hit.
6. yes there are pirates like that (see point 5 for why)

1) I do not think so. You can destroy their ship, but you can't shoot their pod.
2) Yes. You can kill the pod of a war target.
3) You can destroy an outlaws (-5 sec status) ship, but you can not attack his pod.
4) Yes. Bounties are only claimed when you kill the pod. Bounty is split up between all those participating.
5) Well... the last person I killed, I ignored his pod becuase my sec rating would drop too far. I have been as low as -8.2 in the past.
6) Yes, for various reasons. Either he has ambitions requiring access to hi-sec. He could be a member of a mercenary corporation, which mobility is a definate plus in such professions. He might feel that to take the time to try to pod you, your friends could arrive and avenge you. Many reasons...
A prince ought to have no other aim or thought, nor select anything else for his study, than war and its rules and discipline...

Good point about the pod as current ship. I guess you cant pod.
If he is flying a ship, you arent allowed to destroy the pod after the ship anyways.

3. Can I pod if pilot is outlaw?
Yes, can do whatever you want.

No, as long as he isnt a war target or outlaw of course.

True.

Depends on the amount of bounty...
There are certainly pirates out there who will usually not pod (i never podded, not even in 00).
But dont count on it - usually they will.

Yes.
Practically you would pod a newbie only if you want your sec status low.

on issue 1: A killright gives you the right to destroy whatever he is flying, once. So when you destroy his ship you've used your right to kill him, podding him would be shooting at a second 'ship' he's flying. Would you find him in his pod and you have that killright then you can shoot the 'ship' he's flying, once... so effectively pod him.

Ah, thanks a lot.
I see some replies which are in disagreement, so guess I have hit on a problem spot.
So then, can some more people clarify if I can pod an outlaw?

Yes, you can pod an outlaw as he'll be flashing red to you and if you're lucky he had a nice bounty on his head :)

1. Can I pod a pilot if I have kill rights on him? (I think it's NO unless he is in his pod which makes it his 'current ship')
U can only kill what he is in at the time. once that is destroyed the kill rights are seen as fullfilled.
So if he is in a ship, u canm kill the ship, but not his pod
if he is in a pod, u may kill that
2. Can I pod if said pilot is a war target?
Yes, being at war is basically 0.0 rules for all war targets.. IE none...
3. Can I pod if pilot is outlaw? How about if pilot is criminally flagged (flashing red)?
yes, if they are -5.0 or more u may destroy the ship and pod at will...
crimanally flagged u cant... unless he got the flagging whilst in the pod.. as the pod has no guns, he cant have got flagging in the pod.. so no, u cant poid criminally flagged
4. Bounty can only be claimed if the pilot is podded, right?
yeah... bounty is on the pilot, not the ship, only the ship is destroyed, u need to kill the pilot, so pod needs to be squished
5. Are there 'nice' pirates out there who don't pod unless there's a bounty on your head? This seems to have happened to me.
probably.
depends.
real pirates will pod, as they are negative status, so one more makes no difference..
an alliance cleansing its low sec regions is less likely to, as they are more likely to like their access to high sec space. luck of the draw... click that planet and get hitting the warp to button.. take no chances. :)
6. Are there pirates who choose not to pod because he doesn't want to loose so much sec status for it?
as above

As for podding, almost all the pirates you'll find out there pod without hesitation, myself included.
