I really don't understand the mentality of people who do needless pod kills. Killing a ship for the loot is one thing, but then to do a pod kill for absolutely no profit seems to me, well, just malicious. There are good reasons for pod-kills: corporate wars, revenge, etc. But why for not apparent reason? Are there really that many people who play this game that get off on this sort of thing?

It's just cruel to leave your fellow player there, forced to perhaps do some 20+ jumps in his pod.
If you send him back to station, he can hop into a new ship and play again faster.
OK, I'll buy this one. Such compassion for your fellow player!  |

LOLZZZ @ dis thread!
WHY??? why would you ask "why?" its fun to pop pods? cause its not about the loot. Its about pushing the other player closer to the edge of getting mad as hell. Its about being a jerk. its about having a laugh at the other guy's expense. its about the possibility that he had some decent implants for his income level. its all in the hope that he forgot to update his pod and lost some SP for it.
Why podkill? Because theres no teabagging in EVE! 
LOL! Yeah, I figured this was the REAL answer, I just wanted to hear someone actually say it! |

Hmmm, I DID say there were good (and I'll add now "game related") reasons for a podkill. And I've seen some listed I'd not thought of. And I never said everybody gets off on doing it, nor am I complaining about podkills being a part of the game. I suppose I'm trying to make a comment on human nature that there ARE people will podkill for no other reason then "it's fun", even if they get nothing more than they get some sort of rush from it. So, no whining here. (But I DO think there must be a lot a SICK people out there!  )
And even so, this has been an interesting and entertaining thread. |
