Out numbered 20-1.
The pilot you cyno'ed in to rescue jumped out, your alone. (Other than the suicidal corp members that keep landing in the bubble next to you before being obliterated).
You let your senses surge through the ship one last time, while commanding the camera drone to move out to maximum range. 20 Blues all agressed on you.
Self Destruct Initiated... 120 seconds till explsion...
Open comms to local, general broadcast...
"You can take my pod, but my carriers going straight to hell!"
You see a cyno field open nearby, here come the heavy hitters, now concentrate keep that tank running till the end.
It seems like an eternity then finaly your out in your pod in the bubble, a final salute in local and BHAM! One way ticket on clone express!
(now for the fun part)
Comms request from <insert one hostile pilot here>...
pilot name > u self distructed ure carrier?
Harcole > yeah
pilot name > thats ghey m8
pilot name > dont u realise how bad it makes u look?
pilot name > u fail at eve my friend
Comms close!
Now once I picked my self up off my new pods floor, I couldn't help but wonder if I really am the only person selfish enough to denny there agressors the pleasure of a kill mail and some nice loot, or is it a style of play that just seems lost in a world full of pirates and killers?

well just a little hint given the kiddy l33t obsession with killmails in this game self destructing anything expensive when you got a blob ob u and the upset response from youre enemies and u wont survive it was well an odd but good mvoe to deny youre aggressors a killmail - in the old days u would have just logged off ( 90% of eve did it) now well just poke the blow me self up button and away u go

We only had six guys originally, four recons, a sabre, and an astarte. You warped a neutral alt in a coercer, dropped a cyno, and jumped in. Then you stuck your drones on us. What did you expect us to do? All your smack-talking in local and you self-destruct - pretty sad. Enjoy your Absolution BPO (you didn't want that carrier anyway right).

how do you figure he didn't know? I don't read that in his post at all. He says he self destructed... nothin in the post about logging.
and jumping out of warp bubbles... don't read that either. Must be some information here I'm not privy to.

Self-Destructing a Captial ship is the same as logging off used to be. Seems like an exploit to me. Hopefully CCP come to their senses and fix this like they fixed the old log off tactics.
Its honestly the lamest thing in EVE right now and something needs to be done about it.
Nice post though TBH, was well written.

Strange I said I couldn't jump because of being warp scrambled, never mentioned you bubbles other than saying you could save ammo.
and I didn't log out, because there is a 30 minute agro on you if you don't log before agression, so again I see flaw with your statements. Shame you have no respect that you seem to crave so much of for someone who plays the game differently.
- Edit
Sorry I stand corrected I did say that, however I never logged out... point remains semi valid |

This is the sort of thread I was hoping for. That was my first Capital ship loss, in my brain, dennying a kill mail (and what I thought the loot too) was better than jsut sitting there for another 10-15 minutes while my tank failed due to lack of cap.
I was never a logofski fan, and had I known that the self destruct was the new logofski button then I would of waited and died.
I had left out the corp and pilots name because as you can see in the chat log from local, I have no grievences for them, couldn't care less tbh. However they obviously need to make up for me self destructing, at the end of the day I know what I know, I don't what I don't and Im here still enjoying the game.
From now on, no more self destruct, I'll just bring a good book next time

This is a poor rationalization. You wouldn't have lived more than two minutes after you blew up, as our carriers barely started hitting you and you were in half armor. This is evidenced by the fact you waited 15-20 minutes and only couldn't be bothered to wait anymore once you saw the cyno go up and the fighters come out.

The intel I was being fed was that you had jumped in 1 carrier and 1 Dreadnaught. With everyone set to blue to me it was very difficult to keep track of any drones let alone count the number of fighters that just turned up.
The reason behind the delayed self destruct was the shouts of helps coming from the various channels I was in, when the cyno poped and that intel came in I was in a no win situation.
This conversation can go on like this all night, I've no intention of arguing with any of Pandemic, the post was not intended to involve you guys any more than if you wanted to state that self destructing is lame.
Please if you must berate me do it in eve mail or convo's Im happy to chat. Dragging this on the forums is worse than the latest bob goon thread. |

Nothing wrong with denying your enemies the pleasure of finishing you off if you're going down anyway. I don't see why everyone throws a fit over it, it's just a killmail.

He was happy enough to use his carrier against a force much weaker than him, and then suddenly decides he wants out when they suddenly find the upper hand. Lame.

He didn't get out, he still lost the carrier. If the procedure brought you to safety, of course it would be an issue. But it doesn't. It guarantees your death.

We don't make kill mails. TBH I could care less what he did with his carrier its his. if he wants to self destruct it by all means go ahead you bought it you should decide what to do with it.

I heard that with the new system when ever you do any damage on a mail you will get a copy of the mail. If the new system does indeed work this way if someone self destructs you will still get a copy of the mail when the person dies if you appear on the mail the person gets in their inbox upon death.

Personally, I wouldn't do it. I tend to die too quick to even consider it. However I will say this, the little boy inside me always loved it in the space ship films when the heroes self destructed their ship rather than let it fall into enemy hands.
Whilst in EVE we tend to use the 'self destruct' option to pod express and in your case to deny your hostiles the killmail, it does make me ponder, did ccp add this feature as an ode to the heroes we all loved as kids?

Logging is no where near the same ... by logging you are trying to evade destruction.
If you Self destruct, u are still losing the carrier, just denying the people there precious killmail
If u was pout in the same situation...i would do the same thing...but only if i knew there was no hope...and i would take as many of em with me during the countdown as i could..

? You did used to be able to jump out of warp bubbles, deployed or dictor, in any cap ship. AFAIK you could never jump with a point on you though. Was it rev 1 they changed that ? Basically the same time supercaps started dying to dictors, normal caps became vunerable to bubbles also.
The reality is, self destructing is fine HOWEVER if someone loses a ship, and you did damage to them in the last 15, you should be getting a killmail anyway. Same as if 'rats' get the final blow (ie, you 'should' get a km but don't)...

And what's the point of self destructing your carrier to keep the killmail out of the killers hands? Going and blabbing on CAOD that you had to self destruct your carrier probably gives your killers more "lulz" than if they had just killed you.
Edit for me being stupid
You, my friend, have failed eve.

You're all a bunch of idiots. I mean, GOD, comparing logging off in combat with self destructing?
DOES A CARRIER KILLMAIL REALLY MEAN THAT MUCH TO YOU? MAYBE NEXT TIME YOU SHOULD BRING MORE FIREPOWER INSTEAD OF WHINING LIKE A LITTLE SCHOOL GIRL OKAY?

I myself will also try to self destruct if I know I'm dying, firstly to not give the attackers the pleasure of looting me nor seeing my setup.
IT IS PERFECTLY LEGIT!

So wait, if they don't bring enough ships, you whine about them not bringing enough firepower, but if they bring too many, you whine about it being a blob, right?

I don't know, do I whine about that? I don't think I've ever whined about such a thing.
Your attempt at winning failed, and it only made you look pathetic. Congrats!

I just don't understand peoples' obsession with killmails. If the carrier goes down, does it matter how? You've won the fight. Whether or not you get a precious killmail is pretty much a non-factor. Unless the kill itself is not satisfying, in which case perhaps you should find another game to play...

You just Killed their kill mail. The end result for you is the same.
You = no Carrier
They = no killmail
At least a "little" win and it is not a fail at eve but just bitter Piwate-killboard-fan tears.

I just love the amount of noobs complaining about capitals that self destruct.
Every time a capital near it's end if the pilot knows what he's up to he'll self destruct . Why should he give you a kill mail and lewt ? All you get is a pod mail and some drones
On the other side it sucks when you're the attacker .

Self-Destructing a Captial ship is the same as logging off used to be. Seems like an exploit to me. Hopefully CCP come to their senses and fix this like they fixed the old log off tactics.
Its honestly the lamest thing in EVE right now and something needs to be done about it.
Nice post though TBH, was well written.

At least PL you got one of my 2 carriers mail :p Truncated btw i hope you did not get all the shiny mods on both of them ^^
When i saw there was nothing i could do but just sit watching my second carrier dying, i decided to make the thing end quicker hehe
That was nice fight though, next time i will be more cautious in such a fight not watching one of my char screenplay ^^

 In what way is self destructing an exploit? I really wish people would stop using "exploit" to describe something they find annoying. Yes, the attackers didn't get the loot, so what? I think it's a wonderful way for a victim to give the last big "**** you" to the attacker.

It is reasons like this that insurance should not be paid to people who self destruct or people that get killed by concord for unlawfull agression.
How come ?
I kinda like this idea. It's a lot like insurance fraud. For example I've been tossing the idea around of burning my house down as a quick way to collect on it rather than trying to sell it in a failing housing market...
...I mean, no I didn't just say that....umm, what I meant is that if my house happened to spontaneously catch fire I wouldn't be too upset...yea....

Self destructing instead of fighting it out and trying to take as many with you as you can is just as lame as you can get. No matter which side its on and what ship your in.

Notice he also thinks you can still jump out of warp bubbles (you never could). I think ebay too.
? You did used to be able to jump out of warp bubbles, deployed or dictor, in any cap ship.
yep. cant remember if deployed bubbles prevent or not (think not), but spheres didnt prevent jumping out. But Dungar is old player, so he know (ebay?)

It's so funny when people think they won anything by self destructing. Bottom line is you got owned anyways since the ship is no more. Keep on doing it makes me laugh actually.

Since I would find the loss of my Carrier upsetting, I see no reason to provide my enemies of the satisfaction of getting the killmail. I haven't lost a Carrier in over a year, but I'll certainly consider self-destructing should I get myself into an untenable situation in the future.
Basically, I'd do it specifically because doing so would really upset those killing it. What possible motive would I have for granting my killers satisfaction and glory? Since half of Eve is a psychological and propaganda war, why provide enemies with tool to wage the war with?
