suspect status is PURELY about the attitude that the npc corp of concord has of someone, it has NOTHING to do with the attitude of the npc corp that the person is a member of.

You pod a member of an NPC corp and your standings with that corp drop? What's the issue? Seems pretty reasonable to me. Not sure how you can compare that with a PC run/owned corp, since those are actual players who get to make up their own mind how they feel about you.


So what if you spent weeks if not months grinding up to +8 standings with a corp so you can install jumpclones only to have it instantly dropped to -1 because of 1 time a duel opponent didn't warp his pod off? Bearing in mind there is absoluetely no documentation or warning system for this in place... Would you still ask "What's the issue?"?

This has been true for several years now, just because you just starting killing people in npc corps doesn't mean the mechanic hasnt been here all along.


And just because it's been there all along doesn't mean it's a good mechanic, particularly in a 'legal' podkilling.

This is a terrible thread. As such, it's locked. - CCP Falcon

it's completely in line with how a player corp would react if you pod killed one of their members regardless of how concord deemed it legal or not....concord is one entity, the corp the pilot is a member of is another and how they are reacting is completely logical and therefore in fact a good mechanic. Just because concord is ok with something that DOES NOT mean any other corp, npc or not, has to be ok with it.

Says the Caldari Provisions player. If you don't [expletive deleted] like it, don't [expletive deleted] pod anyone. No one is making you. If I ran a player corp and you podded one of my dudes, you would go straight to -10. No questions asked. If you shoot a corp or faction's NPCs, you lose standing with them. Why shouldn't it work the same for not only de-shipping, but pod killing one of their capsuleers?

If you do bad things to people, people stop liking you, and start to impose negative consequences on you. Don't you get it?

Sorry for not holding a grudge against a random player that podded me when he could, I'd have done the same.

No I don't really get it.



I absolutely set anyone who pods my corpmates to -10 right away. That way, those pilots show red in local and in space to all corp members, and my pilots know they aren't to be trusted/have done something detrimental to corp.

Pod away, but don't be mad when corps (player or NPC) don't like you for it...
