I threatened someone that ninja duelled an alt of mine at undock with ganking him until the end of time if he does not got lost and got a bounty.
That is all.

Why does it sound like the death of the sandbox?

It doesn't stop ganking, awoxing, shooting anything else 'illegally', it gives pilots the chance to shoot somebody without the penalty of concord and sec status, a thing of honour like it used to be in the old times I guess. It's about time it was brought in, so you could fly around with your mates who may not be in the same corp, and have a fight without getting the doughnut munchers on your back.

Smart way to look at it,

In fact, just imagine you have friends that are outside your corp and one day you guys want to make a small "PVP" tournament.
Consensual PVP, no kill rights afterwards (AFAIK).

That was missing

Until some *** pulls out a logi. THAT is what retains the sandbox element in my opinion. Yes you can enter an honourable duel, but we all know that the majority of them will be dishonoured by remote rep ships. I would never dishonour a duel, but the option is there and that makes me smile; Eve at its best.

I too am impressed by CCP bringing back an old broken mechanic, renaming it, and calling it brand new.......Lol

Which is exactly why the mechanic will never be used by 99% of highsec....Cool
