because I live in 0.0 and don't want enemy pods hanging around, especially if they just came out of something like a really fast vagabond that probably had HG snakes

If it was an arranged 1v1, I never pod. In other situations I do it because:
- Pods are easier (and, sometimes, more profitable) to ransom. If they don't pay, I HAVE to blow them up, there's no way in hell I'll let a ransomed person go if he didn't pay. - If someone logoffskies, and I have a prober nearby, I pod them because they're lame and they should pay for using metagaming as a tactic. - If none of the above applies, I just do it for the squishy sound if I do it.
I don't always pod, if it was a close fight for example and I'd be in big trouble if I'd get tackled by anything bigger than a rookie ship, or I just like the person (although carebears will never understand that people who consider themselves ingame buddies/friends/whatever kill each others ships), I let them go even if I had the opportunity to pod them.

In a non-consensual PvP encounter, I would pod you, and would expect to be podded. In an arranged PvP encounter, I would probably do and expect the same.
If I get podded for not paying a ransom, I would view that as my own fault, and move on.
I do not like being podded, but it is part of the game, so I live with it. Sure, I would be annoyed about losing any implants, but that is just how it is.

If the guy put up a good fight I'll more than likely let his pod go. I'm in it for blowing up ships not ransoming or any thing, too much hassle when all I want is pretty explosions!
If the guy is annoying or was just lame I will more than likely pod him to send him from whence he came to rethink his actions

The only reason to pod people is that you want to make their defeat & destruction complete. It's true aside from bounty's there's nothing to be gained from podding people.
I always go for the pod everyone I know would do the same. There is a sense of satisfaction from the feeling you just sent someone to a cloning station.
I blame CCP myself for turning us all into very sick puppies indeed.

I like to revel in that barely audible sound one can hear if youÆre close enough, wait for it, and then listen intently.
That sound you hear when a pods hull finally cracks giving birth to the small, soft, contents inside to the vastness of space.
It truly is a wonderful way to watch one die, absolutely beautiful.

EVE is a cold harsh mistress. I can't even count how many times I begged for mercy as a noob not to be podded ... only to wake up in a medcenter. I learned as we all do. Don't PVP with your good implants in, always update your clone, etc etc.
So why do I pod? Part of it is bitterness at what was done to me. Part of it is actually merciful, by teaching others the same harsh lessoned that were handed down to me.
It's never for gloating. Never for smack talk.

I pod to take out implants or drop SP. I also pod out of spite. First pod was to a war target that ticked me off. Managed to grab his pod before he could bail. Needless to say we didn't see him again.
I've been podded but i always go in knowing that whatever i have might get lost so i don't really care if someone pods me. Last time i got caught not paying attention waiting to ambush the enemy. He warped in popped my ship then scrambled my pod. We joked back and forth...he ransomed me...i laughed and told him to go ahead and just pod me. No fun funding enemy now is it.

It has gone wrong in the past, though completely unintended by CCP due to weird stuff in TQ when loaded. Petition fixes it though. -

Podding is like that final kick in the crotch. Sure, you got the message across, but you gotta let that last bit of anger out somehow.

1. Because I can. 2. They might have nice implants, so I am causing them more of a loss. 3. If you can't get your pod out, you suck anyway. 4. It makes a lovely SQUISH sound.
