I think that EVE should make a dueling system. I mean, it would be great to have a way to figure out one's skills without putting the ship and/or pod on the line. I really think that everyone would use and love this system if it were made. Thanks.

EVE already has a dueling system. Each drop cans. Steal from each other's cans and shoot. Now, if you mean that you want a system that is risk free I suggest you look at what game you are playing. EVE is not like a cold, harsh universe, it IS a cold, harsh universe. A duel system would add restrictions to the sandbox that is EVE and prevent the possibility of being double crossed.

Thats pretty much it.
Also, just get rich and stop caring about these "Isk" or "Pods".

Consider playing WoW. Duels exists in Eve, and also does "gentleman's aggreements" how about before the duel you both agree to stop in 20% structure loss. If you happen to lose a ship or whatever, lesson learned don't "duel" them again.

I think this guy and Joe Risola should get together as to how further break the game.

Arena: Gamebreaking Fail

Dueling System: Gamebreaking Fail

Any Combination Thereof: Epic Gamebreaking Fail

More important things for CCP to do than create risk-free combat for carebears.

Like the following:
- Fixing Lag
- Balancing Ships
- Un****ing Incarna
- Un****ing NeX Store
- Fixing numerous bugs/exploits
- More Ships
- Meaningful fix to FW
- Fixing Low Sec
- Balancing Null Sec

Just sayin', you wanting them to drop everything to come up with the necessary programming and mechanics to create such a system would be kind of selfish, and not to mention game-breaking.

And the definitive answer is.
