I can already see the hundreds of frigates sitting cloaked in a safe , waiting to get on that titan KM.

No to expanding killmails.
No to removing them.

It's fun how some people consider their free labor as reward. It make me think communism isn't dead - just hibernating.

P.S. Logis should get killmails.

Kills are the reward, not killmails.

Kill mails are not rewards and it's not communism to want to see your friends make it safely through a battle.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.

The fundamental principles of liberty...

Fine. I change my stance.

Although I strongly dislike them and would very much like to see them removed. I cannot advocate their removal just to suit my personal preference.


I just really wish that important people in governing positions did not put so much weight on them. At the cost of what is truly important.


What is truly important, then?

The endgame for me is killing / losing stuff and having fun doing it, and Killmails allow me to have a track record of that.

What is truly important to you in game?

every eve player should show on every kill, because eve is a sandbox meaning that everyone has influence on anyone else.
and no one will stress on getting kills

For that alliance at that time. Minimizing our own losses while maximizing enemy losses. And through that hopefully win the war.

A good interaction with good people. Eve is just a shell. The only thing of substance in this game is our interaction with other people.

Removal or showing all fleet members - both works for me.


Probably prefered the "show all" option, since I tend to look at the KB from time to time and go like "ooh, shiiit, that fight was awesome! and look at that!"


All those loveeeely memories Cool

Link pilots will get killmails, but this is not a buff, it's more of a nerf. If you want to use boosters, you can still do so, but your killmails will be "tainted" with your booster alt.

This and everyone checking your boosters KB History will see what he's up against.

also, the idea of forcing someone to commit to a fight they have no intention of running from seems kinda pointless. people who still insist on the idiotic "holy trinity" of point, web and prop need to stop being stupid.


If you're saying players will commit to a fight and go until death without being forced to you are dreaming. When i know I'm losing the first thing is to check if you are pointed/ webbed. If not then BYE!

Better idea , remove all killmails.


That way no one needs to feel left out .

I'm undecided about this. At first though this seems frankly idiotic....


But then I think how awesome my killsmails would look when I pick off the fleet scout in a Caracal, and it looks like I went 1 vs 30 and won. = P

I hate when people state their opinion without elaborating.
