You can shoot pods in highsec. In fact shooting a pod in higgsec is the reason I have negative sec status.

The guy really deserved it.

Well, i don't know since when.

I just know that, last time i did it, i got CONCORDed.

And i am quite sure the pod i have shot had a GCC,
because he tried to gank me five seconds earlier.

There's no mention i got blown away by CONCORD though,
simply because the story sounds good enough without that. :)

Fact remains, pods with GCC are no legal targets
and i really want this to be changed. :)

I'd be glad for some help to get this through.. :)

and its not like its hard to make a run in a pod, i have to do it alot as i blow up alot. I like the idea as it gives a little bit of risk to suicide ganking, plus it is a gcc.

I think it should bug report it.

you know being able to pod kill might help SG issues. I'd hang around miners hoping to get me some pod goo now that I get kms for it. Now those SG pilots won't have implants as a result if it happened, but they may have to buy a new clone and with the loss of insurance that might be fun.

I think that if you could pod w/ fewer repercussions it would take the eve learning/frustration curve to a new extreme. That said, I would like it, if for no other reason than it would keep retards and other miscellaneous noobs out of my eve, and then we could go back to caring more about internet spaceships and less about NeX.

Hmmm ganker pods - if the RR and backups cannot save the Hulk, then put a fast locking dessie on hand and suicide gank the pods.


So any times we see "no matter what you do you can't stop us!1! Go back to WoW if you can't handle it!! Marsha Marsha Marsha!"

Ok then...

GCC would be great already, because it makes sense.

Legal pod shooting for the common aggression flag is a bit over the top,
because it could/would hit noobs in starter systems too hard.

i like this idea,

it would help the carebear feel he got revenge, and give that SGer a second thought. its not hard to get away in your pod anyways if your are paying attention, and we all know SGers like to make sure players are paying attention.

It makes no sense to me that i'm not legally allowed to shoot a pilots pod,
when the pilot just ganked a miner in a belt ... for example.

Edit: Updated the topic.


Here is my issue. The only reason your saying this is for rp reasons. RP reasons should never be considered when changing anything. Just because you can't hear sound in space and the lack of oxygen wouldn't allow hull fires doesn't mean eve is better without them.

"RP reasons should never be considered when changing anything." is not an argument.
Your statement lacks background and reasoning.

Also, it's not about roleplaying,
it's about stuff that makes sense.

You missed to post an argument WHY it's a bad idea to make GCC'd pods legal targets.

You do the crime you do the time. HTFU

Why should the pubbies with their sweet little 5.0 sec status get free kills in high sec with no risk.

Where's the risk v reward we're supposedly so famous for.

Or is it perhaps our ebil piwates aren't quite as brave as they like to spew on forums and maybe a little violence is to much for them to handle.

Overdue change, lets rush this one. Twisted
