HI
Would a duelling mechanic be a good thing ( I think yes as ppl don't honour them these days and haven't since about 2005) , say an interface that lets you set how far the duel can go, shields, armour, hull, pod, like the trade window where you both have to click to agree. Once you have got to the agreed threshold then maybe use the safety mechanic to turn it back on for both parties so damage stops. this would help bring duelling back and stop those instances where ppl make a verbal agreement that one party reneges on. Maybe you could then even have a duelling league table within Eve.
Hope that make sense

No. "Safe" combat (ie, no chance of dying and some kind of permanent loss) hopefully never enters this game. The only way a duel should be safe is if you duel against someone you trust enough to stop when you say stop.
Rubbish, why should ppl be limited to who they can fight, this doesn't stop or affect any other PVP in game apart from duel's and only those where ppl can't keep there word.

Because the idea that nothing is 100% safe is a fundamental principle this game is founded on. You are proposing 100% safe combat. so, -1
Erm no I'm not, as one of the options is pod, and that is no different than you saying fight someone you trust.
so -1

EVE has enough artificial limits that still make the "badazz" carebears whine that CONCORD, Incursion, or Level 4s ect to much isk/no risk where they need an area they can shoot people with impunity but won't go anywhere but the safe area where CONCORD is....highsec, yet low/null is the area where you can shoot with impunity and not worry about trusting people, might learn something more than "e-bushido" or "e-honor" or "e-chivalry" or fck anything that you expect "trust" to exist....just shoot people and learn.
If that's what YOU want, not everyones cup of tea ... This adds an option for others, without removing anything for all you "badazz" "non carebear" players who whine and don't like anything that might remove their options at extracting tears out of ppl.
and some of us like to "Trust" peeps

Not going to post in this thread anymore as it seems to have been hi jacked by peeps stating an argument that just doesn't stand and not going around in circles.
What I propose is between duelling parties that have agreed the rules before hand not open world PVP. If you can't get your head around that then nothing more I can say to you.
