This is actually is a pretty good idea about the killmails. For people concerned with their ISK kill/loss ratios it might dissuade them from giving themselves vanity bounties, or from podding themselves with their own alts to claim bounties placed by other players.

Why exactly do you think any self-respecting killboard would consider ISK placed on your head by other people to be your loss?

Because 99% of bounties are placed upon themselves.

Try not to be so peurile thank you.

Anyone that isn't a noob can see that the majority of bounties are placed by pilots themselves in order either to get some kind of dumb bragging rights or to entice people into engaging them in the hope of gaining the bounty payout. Let's not forget the EOH poker retards that put high bounties on their heads in order to advertise on the bounty leaderboard.

Furthermore you could argue that since bounties are so easily collectable using an alt, that any bounty amount beyond the price of your medical clone is indeed your own loss should you get podded since it is an asset within your means of collecting.

Ok would it appease the masses if I changed my post to say

:- IMO the majority of people with worthwhile bounties have placed them on themselves.

Much better, now people can stop grasping their keyboards and rocking back and forwards with rage.
