EVE General Discussion

Train up a gank alt.

It works for them.

In lowsec? No one, other than other players perhaps.

In highsec, there are a range of consequences including inability to warp, auto abandon of wrecks, instantly engageable by other players and Concord.

Concord respond to a criminal GCC in highsec, but killrights have a broader use than highsec only and there are more consequences for a criminal GCC than only Concord in highsec.

Comparing Eve to RL is a laughable argument.

Not only from the game perspective, but from the lore perspective too. It's a game set 20,000 years in the future in a totally different part of the universe that underwent a near extinction event and where law abiding people own slaves, where law abiding people can buy the face of someone else which is then cut off them, where they commit torture at a whole of race level, etc., etc. etc.

Our RL standards are incomparable to the standards of society in New Eden.

You can shoot me anywhere without a kill right. <3

I didn't think making a thread over something like this would be worth the bother, but this seems relevant enough for me to put my question/experience in here instead.

Basically, last month I went and helped out some fellow running missions who'd fallen for a mission baiter. In hindsight, I probably should've left him to it; the baiter in question was only using an Incursus, who didn't have enough fire-power to break through the other guy's tank (near cap-stable Myrm), and therefore would've eventually given up. But, in a rush of blood, I thought I'd play the shining knight and ride to the rescue.

Long story short, I jammed the baiter, fellow corpie got away scot-free, and I ended up with a KR against me. For the following month he was online for roughly a third of the time I was playing, but he only went and actively searched for me with 1 week to go. When I called him out in local at the time, he promptly gave it up after 20 odd minutes, and went back to baiting innocent newbies. And that was that...

What's confusing me is why he never made it available for general activation... I imagine there would've been a few people more then willing to go and ambush (primarily) a mission runner, but he practically threw in the towel without even trying to probe me down. Isn't it simply a case of a few mouse clicks and inputting an activation cost to set a kill-right as public?

be careful what you wish for!

How about Killlefts?

*drumroll*

not a matter of paying attention, its when you want to go bounty hunting and every killright you find is 1b+ and when you finally find someone with a low or 0 killright their gone. its annoying.

when your "bounty hunting" consists entirely of checking for targets on trade hub undocks, what do you expect to find?

Market orders can be filtered by any number of attributes, including by price. It is trivial to ignore overpriced scam orders, arrange by price and you never even see them most of the time. You don't need to click on every single market order to see if it is a scam or not, it is apparent and basically filterable. If you are referring to error in user input, having butterfingers and screwing up a number doesn't really relate to the conversation at hand - the majority of killrights are nonsense ones and lead to the killright icon being meaningless and ignored.
