Now that we have these brand new kill reports and war reports, why not go the whole nine yards and have a new tab in the info windows for alliances, corporations, and characters showing their kills and losses? It seems to be a logical extension of the new system they're putting in place.

To basically remove third party killboards?

Third party killboards will still be the centers of discussion for kills, as they will have wider exposure and will allow commenting. They also provide much more functionality (statistics, search functions, etc.) than EVE does. EVE currently also only shows kills based on final blow, whereas third party killboards show kills for everyone on the killmail/kill report.

So no, it wouldn't remove or replace them.

Hmm. If what you're suggesting doesn't show others on killmails, it won't be worthwhile really. It'd have to have the same format as the current Killboards to be useful in my opinion

I didn't mean to imply that, no. Of course it should show others on kill reports.

Not everyone wants to give enemies free intel?

Opt-out option then?

This would be ok with an opt out.

Yeah, I think it would have to have one.

Of course, I could only opt out from showing my kills and losses on my toon. If someone kills me I shouldn't be able to opt out from them showing so on their own profile. Same with corps and alliances.
