Also for recruitment people take killboard stats into account too, you know?
What kind of ****** ass NPC corp are you in to have your killboard looked at?
It's really easy. If you want to be on a killmail, cycle an offensive mod on the target ship before it explode. If you get purged off your corp for fitting guns or EWAR to your logi boat because you care so damn much about padding your killboard with meaningless kills, that your problem. |

To those who say to stop caring about killboards because they aren't fun, I disagree. They aren't YOUR idea of fun. Eve is and always will be spreadsheets in space... combat stats are fun for me. I like to look at my killboard on a good day and give my head a nod of approval (or cringe when things go pear shaped).
I'm probably the only person who looks at my killboard save for someone running intel on me when they see me in local. It's not a manhood swinging contest, it's so that I can judge my level of performance and rate it by whatever ratings I wish. That is fun for me.
I may or may not start swapping out one of the reppers for a railgun lol. I'm sure my alliance will take note of it and yell at me eventually, especially if we whelp while I'm flying logi, but I do enjoy kill mails.
How can you even tell if you are good at flying logi by being on killmails or not? That's not even remotely part of your job as a logi. If you want to be proud of your work as logi, check your fleet-mate killboard after an OP and see how many of them didn't get a red row added to their killboard. |

Another thing is... I get the vibe that you just don't want things to be changed, am I correct in that assumption?
To be real honest with you, I wish CCP would nail the coffin and tell the players Logi will never get more "KB quality of life changes" so that we can put this stupid debate off and end the discussion so that logi can actually concentrate on flying logi and the related responsibility instead of bothering with padding their killboard. |

Why do you care about killboards in the first place? What do they add to the game? Do they get you better fights?
This is a **** argument. I am not one of those people who really cares, but I also do understand that a lot of people do - bottom line is, you don't get to dictate what's fun for other people. For a lot of people looking at their KB seems to bring enjoyment, so I don't see why this shouldn't also be the case for logi pilots.
If they care that much about their killboard, they can fly DPS or shitfit their logi boat with a whore gun or something equally stupid. |

I don't get the part about not using the keyboard but I think I get the general idea. It's true for small fleets when you know the two logi pilots you have with you. But it's hard to be appreciated when you're part of a logi cloud with 20+ logi in them and the Battleships die before you can lock them anyway (nevermind finishing a repair cycle). At least let the records show that you were there!
"Hey dude, remember that time where we were getting alpha'd off the field so fast logi were pretty much useless because we could not lock, let alone finish a cycle on the broadcast? Well, just for the record, I was there man. I was in the logi wing, trying uselessly to save your ship while you died in a single salvo completely preventing us from doing anything relevant." |

Edit - I Am not a killboard poser ,I do not require a badge for every kill made but it would be nice to have a look back at my history within eve and be reminded of previous moments I have been part of ,this is why killboards work for me anyways
You don't need badges for your kill but you want to look back at those badges later to remember? How does that even work? |

Go ahead. Heroes of the Storm, League of Legends, World of Warcraft, Planetside 2, Battlefield (any), Overwatch (I assume, never played it). Happy now?
So out of your example, you have 3 MOBA which are completely different from EVE, a FPS where healing is essentially used as stat padding by dropping a healing bag then picking back your weapon and fight like an infantry unit and a MMO where the best way to get noticed for how much healing you do it to make sure your group make some misstakes or botch up a CC chain.
That's a great list. |

But Logipilots have a hard time to be reckognized on zkillchecks (by any players) and also, they don-Št get that positive feedback from their killboard (ahh nice, in the last fleet fight i got on 34Killmails).
Ah nice, my team didn't get 34 loss mails last fight. |

So what does posting with your main have to do with kill board stats, or joining or corp for that matter?
It's mostly funny to me because when they did, people posting on their main confirmed they are not unable to join PvP corps even if they don't get KMs while flying logi. |
