Yeah, yeah .. killmails for everyone .. what struck me reading that plea was: We successfully pointed their carrier and destroyed it and 8 billion isk killmail

Holy hell, who in their right mind fits modules on a larger ship worth more than 10x the hull value? Smile

Second the motion that nothing should be done until POS replacement is up and running.

If they really are going with a modular type of thing then gunners/guns may well be on designated platforms/modules and can thus be handled like regular ships making the whole thing easy-peasy to code.

When you don't have supercaps, what else are you to do but load up your regular capitals with high-end gear? *points at RELAX's relatively recent ex-Chimmy in C5 space*

I am guardedly optimistic that CCP will do the right thing and give POS gunners proper killmail credit.

While I think this would be nice to see, I don't think CCP is likely to do any additional work on POSes, since hopefully POSes will be replaced sometime soon.


There will still be POS defense and I like the gunner mechanic as it stands. Hopefully they won't be throwing out the good along with the bad.


this and of course SUPPORT for the OP.

I hope people read and give this reasonable idea a chance ..... it is about rewarding the effort taken by players to learn valuable skills. Becoming a POS gunner requires a commitment of time that could be spent on other isk or killmail generating skills.

It is a basic question of fairness, in our violent sandbox single shard universe how can CCP justify not crediting all those who participate in a kill?

Programers program, saying it might be hard to correct is pure nonsense, some of the best game programmers in the world work for this game, time for CCP to man up and do the right thing for players while also improving the game and staying consistent to rewarding those who participate in kills.
