Rail Duke	Posted - 2006.12.27 02:56:00 - [1] I am like, i f'ed up and have paid the price. GJ pirates/opposition and send them a letter of congratulation or asking what i did wrong. When i die from NPC's my reaction is much less friendly but i still don't throw a hissy fit. I was glad to see pirates adapting to warp to 0 with warp-in gatecamps, got ****** by a three man one. Jared valdez and 2 others. Player kills, especially in a rifter or thrasher hardly bother me at all apart from the feeling you have when your ship dies. How do you react?

Balor Rand Caldari Continuum Rift	Posted - 2006.12.27 03:06:00 - [3] I just laugh, try and open a conversation to congratulate them and ask for any advice they are willing to give on setups or tactics. Then I go buy a new ship and fittings and start all over. The explosions are so pretty even if its my ship doing the exploding. Balor Rand "In death everyone is equal.

Nyphur Pillowsoft Interstellar Starbase Syndicate	Posted - 2006.12.27 03:07:00 - [4] Originally by: Kaaii I don't know, whats it like? It's like... can you imagine for a moment that you're in your ship of choice and then a few moments later, you're not? It's like leaving your ship in a hanger except your ship isn't in your hanger at the end of it. Not ringing a bell? Eve-Tanking.com - For tanking spreadsheet and resources.

Gorek Loc	Posted - 2006.12.27 03:41:00 - [6] I lost my brand new Brutix today... first time I flew in one I got caught by an enemy, and he was fitted to take ME out... his setup was perfect... I didn't even get a shot in Frist reaction... there was an ally in the system, so I tried calling for help, but after realizing he wouldn't come, I just had to compliment my killer... he did a good job.. he knew what he was doing. Bad thing for me. I had my Brutix for 47 hours, waiting for my Engineering skill to train to an acceptable rate, so I wouldn't be a sitting duck in combat. The sad part was he got most of my items, I tried to get into 0.0 along woth the ship. I would have used the ship in fleet to kill his allies, so I guess he did the right thing

Pelsson Amarr Northern Intelligence SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.27 06:27:00 - [8] im like omg!!! HAx sploit FU YOU, FU YOU ALL Then I buy a new clone/ship and fly with smile on my face. Until I die again
Shandling Minmatar	Posted - 2006.12.27 06:36:00 - [9] I cry a lot. Then I slit my wrists (just little attention cuts) and write bad poetry.
T'Renn Vale Heavy Industries	Posted - 2006.12.27 07:06:00 - [10] I die a lot so I guess I'm used to it. I NPC'd for over a week to get up enough dough to buy my first Deimos and I lost it today within an hour of fitting it. I didn't freak out or anything -- just shut the game off and spent some time away. I'll just save up and buy another. Life's too short to get stressed about dying in a video game.
X ChaosX Cutting Edge Incorporated RAZOR Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.27 07:41:00 - [11] Gf, oh well, I won't die like that again thats usually my responce if I die because of my mistake. Getting killed in a gang/fleet fight I just say oh well, sucks I was called primary. ___ Originally by: Bill Shankly i see your another one of those lousy pirates that cant fight fair and call yourself apvper, what a joke u are. Don't represent corp or alliance blah blah
Nash Leigth Children of Azathoth Brotherhood Of Steel	Posted - 2006.12.27 07:43:00 - [12] First thing i try to rememeber if the ship was insured. Then I try to remember what mods I had on. Meanwhile I analyze what I did wrong that got me pwned. If I'm deep in some hostile territory, I spend the next few minutes worrying about getting my pod out. Once I get out and dock I finally realize I can check my eve-mail for that stuff I was trying to remember so hard. Then comes the fun part of outfitting a new ship
mazzilliu Caldari Sniggerdly	Posted - 2006.12.27 08:18:00 - [13] Edited by: mazzilliu on 27/12/2006 08:18:51 i get a replacement from my stack of 6+ replacements, pull replacement mods from my can of 6+ identical fittings, insure my ship, undock and continue on my merry way damage control is almost an art, and losses are inevitable 1000% awesome guide to logging out

Life's too short to get stressed about dying in a video game. sucks trenn especially so soon... i die all the time and i only get upset if i made a mistake which was avoidable. if i fail to check local and realize too late my target has 4 buddies in system that will **** me off. if i get ganked by a blob waiting the next system over i just roll with it. ive done it to other people enough times to get upset about it. if youre going to take risks in pvp in my opinion you will lose, and you better get used to it. i do miss all my destroyed ruppies though, i loved every one of them.
Lila Shihonage Gallente The Really Awesome Players	Posted - 2006.12.27 11:03:00 - [15] I used to call my mommy, but from now on I'll post some rambling **** here. Thanks again, internet.

Only takes a few moments to realise if your winning a fight or going to lose, if im going to lose and know theres no way out of it, then plan a) is to find that planet or roid belt, click it and keep smashing WARP on the overview for when your ship goes bang. I feel bad before i go bang as opposed to when i go bang.

Damien Smith Turbulent	Posted - 2006.12.27 12:46:00 - [22] Originally by: Rail Duke got ****** by a three man one. Jared valdez and 2 others. ? Bah, Jared's a noob. He was on the camp just to witness mine and Tribalbleb's ownage. True story. Seriously though, people who take it as just a part of the game are cool. We're just playing a game at the end of the day. ----------- Join channel 'Turby' or die! (bring pie) I <3 carebears on toast ^^ - Xorus I'll trade you some carebears for some sheep -Tirg
Sivalente Murder of Crows	Posted - 2006.12.27 13:10:00 - [23] I post "good fight, had fun" in local, dock at my favorite station, grab a new ship and start orginising a coutner-attack in alliance chat.
Madelchai	Posted - 2006.12.27 13:55:00 - [24] I got back and mercilessly mock my attacker until I get set to -10 standings with their corp. Or, at least until they say I've been, anyway.
Nero Scuro Caldari Murder of Crows E N I G M A	Posted - 2006.12.27 14:07:00 - [25] Originally by: Sivalente I post "good fight, had fun" in local, dock at my favorite station, grab a new ship and start orginising a coutner-attack in alliance chat. ...while crying like a little girl over Vent and sobbing uncontrollably. :o My first reaction to losing a ship is (depending on ship price - numb) acceptance. Underneath that a calm reasoning logic. And underneath that a white-hot core of resentment, bitterness for my fellow man, and rage. ___ The world isn't going to end; we're not that lucky...
Soraya Kha'marr Amarr Gun Metal Priests The Shadow Ascension	Posted - 2006.12.27 14:11:00 - [26] Seeing that i usually enter combat prepared to die, heck i even undock that way where i live now, the most youll get from me is a GF afterwards. As someone has already said, the fights either won or lost within the first few seconds, most times anyways, so after that its either "ok, im boned/dead/going down" (though i must admit, an "oh noes!!" has escaped my lips once or twice ) or silence except for the FCs commands as we eliminate the target(s). Beware: Sig Ahead! This space is mine, mine alone!!!oneoneeleven! (You can rent it for cookies though.)
Lucifer Fellblade Ore Mongers SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.27 14:18:00 - [27] I generally go 'Gah' feel stupid, and then figure out how to go about getting a new ship. ------

Destiny Calling Sanguine Legion	Posted - 2006.12.27 14:45:00 - [29] If its a solo action I kind of get annoyed dock up, smoke have a munch then try again. If it happens when flying in a gang, its just a laugh and a joke
Strangely Brown Cult of the Purple Wolf	Posted - 2006.12.27 15:06:00 - [30] I usually grab my rusty axe from the basement and go out to behead all the town's firstborn. I then return home for a nice mug of Horlicks and an episode of Corrie.
Shadowsword COLSUP Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2006.12.27 15:27:00 - [31] When I lose a ship in pvp, I don't really care, that was a strong possibility the moment I exited the station with it. When I lose a NPC ship to pirates, I'm ****ed, but I don't show it. But I'll be ready for any opportunity to get even with them. ------------------------------------------ Every ship has a base 60-70% resist against the primary damage type of the race that is the least able to vary it's damage types.
Sivalente Murder of Crows	Posted - 2006.12.27 15:42:00 - [32] Damnit nero, we talked about not breaking my machoistic mask in public!
Karlemgne The Black Fleet	Posted - 2006.12.27 16:21:00 - [33] I usually say, "gf," in local (assuming it wasn't a blob gank .) That is, unless someone starts to smack me, in which case, I've got my advanced smack talk skill to 5. It just took me 29 years to train. -Karlemgne

Usually on ventrilo these days i calmly say "ah well, im boned", once upon i time i used to be clawing my desk screaming "Noooooooooooooooooooo!, Wkers!!!" Fact. for me, its not so much my own reactions when i die, because im the luckiest and stupidest person alive. its other peoples reactions towards my actions that are interesting. like, for instance. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TAKING ON AN ECM NOS DOMI AT A GATE 1v1 IN AN EOS?". responses are usually just like "why the hell not?". and as for being the luckiest person alive, said domi client crashed when i hit 50% hull and i managed to turn my damage control back on and warp out, only to have had a guy frmo my corp randomly warp to that gate in a machariel out of his own random free will and arrive right as the domi logged back on, to finish off his structure.

Thomas Maleficus Caldari Monkeys With Syphilis	Posted - 2006.12.27 16:56:00 - [35] Depends on the situation. 1v1 to small gang vs 1 I would say gf in local if Im in a combat ship, if Im in an industrial, well I just say nothing, killing haulers doesn't merit kudos. Fleet ops and blobs I just go refit a new ship, we're all there to kill and I'll leave it to the FC the hand out the kudos after the battle. Pirates stole my signature.
Yukiko Kanezaki	Posted - 2006.12.27 17:31:00 - [36] When I lose a ship, I react by starting to warp out. Yeah. After I get my pod out, I start talking in local. I tend to say something like "smack smack smack, mega hate, more smack, corp threat, petition threat" or something like that, along with the standard "Good fight!" but sometimes I like to jazz it up, so I say "Mega Sweet Monkey Cheese Fight!" ... or something equally random.
Chr0nosX	Posted - 2006.12.27 18:26:00 - [37] Depends if it was my fault. If it was my fault I get a bit ****ed and usually log off for a bit if it wasnt I grab another ship from the station or go buy a new one.

Soporo	Posted - 2006.12.27 23:52:00 - [39] Edited by: Soporo on 27/12/2006 23:54:21 When I lose a ship.. I drive rusty nails into my prong, and run around the house naked covered in blue jello, shrieking, and chasing the cat. Errr, no. I actually never engage in convo or local, unless they initiate it, and if its just smack, then nothing.
Christopher Multsanti Euphoria Released Euphoria Unleashed	Posted - 2006.12.28 01:47:00 - [40] I normally start swearing on vent for about a minute. Then I tell everyone how much I hate this ****ing game. Look at my deathmail for another minute...just staring. Swear some more on vent. Then log of in disguist. It's sort of a ritual I have now. It's great being Amarr that flys Minmintar aint it? EVIL SYNNs > Bob are the best, we have to pay them to use the plexs...
Shinjuro The Priory Shroud Of Darkness	Posted - 2006.12.28 01:54:00 - [41] If I am killed.. I do like The State of Texas, and I kill you back.
Arric Rohr	Posted - 2006.12.28 03:02:00 - [42] If I'm killed by an actual pirate, one is a lovely yellow or flashing red, well, I don't like it, but I get over it. If I'm killed by NPC's I'm an idiot and have nothing to complain about. But, if I'm flying a barge and some twit with a 2.7 sec status pops into the belt and ganks me just because he can, well, that angers me. I usually call him a coward in local, because, after all, he is a coward to do that. I don't mind PvP, it's a PvP game. But lame ganking is stupid and bad for the game. CCP should do something about it to make more consequences.
Echo Degnar Amarr	Posted - 2006.12.28 04:24:00 - [43] I fly Frigates and tend to take on larger ships most of the time. I can afford to lose my ship several hundred times over, so it doesn't bother me when I die now and again. Besides, when my ship and fittings cost no more than 1,000,000 ISK, I won't hesitate if I have the opportunity to take on something that costs five times as much, or more. All I avoid are drone ships. When I pop, I congratulate the pilot. If I win the fight, I also congratulate the pilot on a good fight. It's usually fairly close since I rarely take on anything smaller than a Cruiser. True story... popped a Ferox in my Punisher(solo). I'm reckless when I don't have much to lose. Couldn't do that again if I tried, though. --------------- *1) Do CCP, eve-online makers, should make more surver ?
woRt HoG	Posted - 2006.12.28 11:10:00 - [44] recently returned from a 6 mounth break i.e. i havent really played RMR or kali and ive lost 2 HACS and 2 BS due to stupid little mistakes and under estimating new ships and the abilities of my current ships in just a few weeks. I just shrug it of laugh at it say 'gg' and now my tatic is get into cheaper ships, Proph's and tech 1 fits for a while
FalconHawk Amarr Falcon Advanced Industries	Posted - 2006.12.28 12:01:00 - [45] last time i lost my ship i was more than **ed ... daughter cried for help and i left my abso in a 17au ss in 0.4 for 5mins alone ... not to mention the new probes are a ***. thx to the guy that just killed the ship and not the pod, must have been surprised that i didn¦t shot back (his astarte would have been toast when i actualy were at keyboard). now my daughter needs to mine with my alt until the money is back in
Timmy Bettenson Caldari Total Mayhem. Maelstrom Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.28 12:15:00 - [46] three stages when i do eventually get blown up: 1. sulk for 5 minutes 2. get angry 3. buy new ship and hunt down the person who laid the last blow.
Alan Maher Infinitus Odium	Posted - 2006.12.28 12:40:00 - [47] I usually swear over TeamSpeak then I post the deathmail on the KB and swear some more, then log my alt on and buy a new ship then swear about the prices in rens. Afterwards I go and loose another ship and repeat the process.
Desiderious Gallente Catalyst Reaction Xelas Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.28 16:49:00 - [48] There are only 2 instances so far when I got nailed, as a tackler and as a indy for POS refuel...In the first instance its a very sweet death because usually id be able to hold down the pirate long enuogh for friends to arrive. In the second instance I keep calling myself an idiot and congratzing the pirate . My fault for lettin it happen. ----------------------------- Oink ^OO^ Your sig is too large.

Flaming sambuka Trinity Nova	Posted - 2006.12.28 21:07:00 - [52] After having my ass handed to me im not usually miffed, unless its cause of lag then sh*t happen's but i would usually congratulate the enemy and maybe ask where i went wrong if it isnt obvious to me. Trinity Nova Mercenary Services
Katrina Kirellii Caldari Escorts of Eve	Posted - 2006.12.28 21:13:00 - [53] Let me see... I lost four ships in 30 minutes to CONCORD because of a flag bug after shooting a TV. I lost a ship shooting a gate from turrets. I died while accidentally flying my pod into 0.0 cause I clicked on the wrong destination and Strangey shot my pod. I was returning from a mission after losing my ship. I died while attacking BoB - took 9 hours to die - cause their better players were out. So eventually an NPC shot my ship, I got a shuttle and after the 3rd battle I got shot and podded. I lost a ship in COSMOS at the Skeleton Comet in Deltole. I lost 2 ships and got podded once in a war with Decisive Outcomes to Lukkat the Pirate. Made a video about Lukkat because I wanted to meet him - and then he podded me. So really I did it backwards... Lukkat the Pirate video I still would like to shoot Strangey cause at least in that podding I was minding my own business and he shot me just to get a killmail cause he WAS at that point a Griefer and may still be one. None of the other pilots I have had the pleasure of controlling have ever been killed. I guess it is because I am not very cautious... Katrina Kirellii Captain of the Silken Mistress
Zehn Takakura Caldari Skill Level Six	Posted - 2006.12.28 23:39:00 - [54] I calmly lay down the keyboard, pick up my gun and walk into town shooting kittens/new born babies (usually a combination of the two); all the while i am completly naked and covered in feathers. Meh
Plaetean Remnants of Times olde	Posted - 2006.12.28 23:44:00 - [55] For me, it depends a lot on how I died. I'm getting to the point where unless I'm in a battleship/t2 cruiser, most of the time (depending on how much is in my wallet) I'll engage nearly anything short of a blob just to see how much I can take out before I go down. When I first started (I started out carebear, as nearly everyone else in eve did I think) I was mega ****ed when I lost a ship. Now I always try and learn from it, it's a short term sacrifice for long term benefit kind of thing. As long as I don't die to lag or something like that, I'll react by talking on vent/IG to some people about the fight, going over it a few times in my head, what I did wrong, what they did right etc. My views are my own etc etc
Cecil Montague Minmatar KarWal Corporation Myriad Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.29 00:30:00 - [56] Usually i sleep off the bottle of scotch i drank.

Lienzo	Posted - 2006.12.29 08:29:00 - [61] The only part that gets me down is counting the number of jumps I'll have to travel to haul back a boatload of Nocxium. Sometimes I'll wonder why I warped in at zero instead of 25km or some other equally obvious thing. But overall, I'm always happy that I got a chance at a fight that I thought might be worth going for. I don't need 1v1 to unsafespot, all I need is the right hull type for my transversal to engage, and minimal acceptable diminution or delay of focused fire. I make my liesurely million isk a day, so I don't fly anything too expensive. That's a few frigates a day, a destroyer, or a cruiser every other day. My favorite thing to kill is pods, frigates and interceptors. Killing larger ships is fun too, but that always seems to turn into a gank. There's just something terribly satisfying about making a mess out of the graceful flight of those interceptors by a perfectly applied volley. Whatever I'm in can just spontaneously combust after that for all I care. ---- "I have not been podded and run out of isk. I am merely camping my hangar."
zibelthurdos	Posted - 2006.12.29 10:14:00 - [62] the last (only time) i've been podded was my own damned fault, Warning kids, Don't try this at home. a rookie in cistuveart was wondering about the effectiveness of concord, so i decided to give him first hand knowledge. i told him i would fire on him and explained all about concord, what i did not explain was why we do not shoot pods in highsec. hell, i didn't even know he was firing on me, i wasn't even paying attention. total cost, 1 vel with civ railgun 0.00 isk 1 medical clone 10 million+ explaining to your corpmates how you lost a complete set of +4's and a yeti to a rookie in an imicus ...

merc999 Caldari SniggWaffe	Posted - 2006.12.29 11:16:00 - [64] It varies.. sometimes its a short and sweet "GF" in local' othertimes I have chatted with the guys who killed me, discussed what I did wrong (sometimes its nothing just outnumbered/skilled or gunned) If I get the " hahaha ur a noob we killed ya noob" type smack in local I just leave it as "GF" and ignore the rest of the immature crap Its the same when I get a kill, I always say "GF" , and unless under pressure (being hunted etc) am normally willing to discuss what happened and how the prey could have fought differently to try to make a difference to the outcome
fire 59 Destructive Influence Band of Brothers	Posted - 2006.12.29 11:43:00 - [65] Edited by: fire 59 on 29/12/2006 11:44:09 Dying is part of the game. I fight often enough that if i die, it's usually my own fault. Not aligned properly, nt turning repper on or forgetting to launch drones etc. The important thing is to learn from every death and not repeat it. There have been a few where i have kicked mysself becasue they were really silly and looking back you realise your instincts where right. Generally though, no matter how it happen's, just hop straight back into another ship and get on with it and get your revenge, RAWR Edit - and merc999 makes a good point, it is fun to talk to who you fought and chat about how it went down and how it could have been different, how to improve etc

Dio Len Amarr CAD Inc.

Anferney	Posted - 2006.12.31 22:01:00 - [71] Enjoy the pretty explosions then go get a new ship after some chatting with the victor in local so long as they are not rude. Maybe the fact I enjoy the explosions so much is why I am broke

Dirf Olep	Posted - 2007.01.03 02:29:00 - [74] Give a brief recap of a day I had two days ago... Bought Myrmidon and fitted, took an hour. 15 minutes later: SON OF A MOTHER FREAKING $(% $$# (%%&#&@ #(%&@( %$&$#@& Bought Thorax and fitted: took 45 minutes. 5 minutes later: YOU GODLESS ^%(%$$ %(^*#(%$ ^%U&^$*#& Bought Vexor and fitted: took 45 minutes. 1 jump later: escape - quit game Had a smoke on the front porch, logged back on and did my thing. I learned 3 very important lessons, and havent let myself get into those situations yet. I havent lost a ship since. (still a short amount of time)
Zardenim	Posted - 2007.01.03 05:46:00 - [75] Assess the situation and calculate how much damage I dealed out before going down, and whether it was worth the loss of my ship or not. So far it has been.

I then look at the killboard and look at how many ships i have killed with the ship i have lost. If i killed in iskies more than the price of the ship and modules i am a happy Pirate I then jump in a replacement (2 of each ship fitted always) and get even. Edit: in terms of talking to the people i fight i rarely do unless it was a really decent fight, I prefer to not talk to my prey unless asking for bounties on pods. ************************* 5 Seconds means 5 Seconds
zeroh Caldari The Black Rabbits	Posted - 2007.01.03 12:04:00 - [79] I feel bad post the loss then look at my wallet and realise ive only lost 1% of my isk so i go buy a new one..or if im lucky i have another ship with same role capability but i feel bad
VIctoria Ballentyne Minmatar Pale Riders Incorporated	Posted - 2007.01.03 14:37:00 - [80] When it happens I take it good natured, contact the person who killed me, chat to them and have a laugh, often congratulating them on a kill. On the flip side when I kill someone I often contact them and tell them what they did wrong and how to do it better next time and give them a kitten. However..... when I or my alt get ganked while out exploring/mining/ratting by <censored> <Censored> <CENSORED> alliances with their <CENSORED> NBSI I tend to take it personally as <CENSORED> <CENSORED> multi BB/CL/CV fleet vs whatever ship I am in is usually taking the <CENSORED><CENSORED>.

Johann Jeneau Gallente Federal Navy Academy	Posted - 2007.01.03 20:28:00 - [81] I have a problem with my brain wich makes my fingers hyperactive after a fight! I like to start a convo with my killer saying GF and trying to know what the other guy had fitted I like my steaks bloody as hell

Nah i usually just whine on Vent in the hope someone else will feel bad and fork out for my new mods and avoid all contact with whatever just killed me. Unless i was AFK in which case i swear....alot and make sure that everyone knows it wasn't my fault. No good do gooders who spout crap about "paying the price for crime" while refusing to pod me so i have to watch them loot my wreck usually get a mouthful of abuse too. Especially the ones who give me a lecture about the evils of pirating and how they're pwning me should be a lesson even though they know i'm gonna go kill another poor sap to pay for new fittings after they took the last ones! Just depends on my mood wrong time of the month and all that jazz, if i get completely pwned i'll ask why i did so bad but otherwise they can go **** themeselves
Leilani Solaris Gallente 0utbreak	Posted - 2007.01.05 11:42:00 - [83] Depends how big the loss is. If it's a big loss and it was a stupid mistake i usually stay offline for a few days... Outbreak Killboard
Naim Obeji Minmatar Shiva Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2007.01.05 23:44:00 - [84] I don't die all that often, so I'm not what you would called "used to it," yet. However, I try to be good-natured about it and respectful. Every time I have gotten killed and/or podded, I've known it was going to happen before I uncloaked or before the shooting started....well, all except once. I wasn't counting on a 2k+ wrecking hit from General Furyan's (TCF) tempest that melted my muninn just as I got out of an interdictor bubble. Of course, it was 2 vs. like 80, so I knew it wouldn't go too well. Anyway...I usually have a few seconds to come to terms with my impending doom. My first reaction is a quick wave of embarrassment (I've had a couple very embarrassing deaths). Then, I laugh about it. Then I do some failure analysis and move on. It's a game. If you're not having fun, what's the point?

Nalar Marnith Minmatar Sebiestor tribe	Posted - 2007.01.19 01:38:00 - [86] Before I turned to the dark side, I was killed around 3 - 4 times and podded once less than that. My general reaction was being absolutely furious. I lost a few kill mails somehow (hence being a little vague about the exact number), but other than that I hang onto them in the hope that I can return the favour one day :) Since turning pirate/entrepreneur I'm happy to say I've taken down 3 Caracal (fly something else ppl, ffs) without losing my Rifter once.
Devian 666 KAIZEN BROTHERHOOD	Posted - 2007.01.19 01:50:00 - [87] I put on my corpse makeup, black lipstick and my best leather dress. Then I head to a bar and drink tequilla. Oh hang on this isn't the goth forum. Cool an orange sig
Maximillian Pele Caldari Jewel Enterprises	Posted - 2007.01.19 05:04:00 - [88] I feel a degree of annoyance, anger and loss. Which I am pleased by because the day I stop caring about loosing ships is the day I probably cancel my accounts. That said when my ship is going down I am normally too busy trying to save the pod to type anything. If I get podded I'm out of local. If I survive and my pod is safe, then I'll either say nothing or will chat and joke with my enemy. Smacking - whether you win or lose - just makes the smacker look like a complete tard. In times of doubt I ask myself "What would BoB do?", and then do the opposite.
