There are two kinds of podding going on in eve, legal and illegal, legal from kill rights, dueling, corp wars , and LEGAL agressions, and then there is illegal podding, from ganking and direct illegal aggression, the game mechanics KNOWS the difference, because in the legal case CONCORD WILL NOT get involved, and in the illegal case CONCORD will get involved and will destroy and flag the perpetrator(s). THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS NOW...So the game mechanics KNOWS the difference, and with players being killed in missions the NPCs NEVER pod a players, and also the gankers only use cheap ships and cheap implants on their victims only, knowing that CONCORD will destroy their ships anyway, so this whole issue is solely about "claiming" the amount of kills on a kill board like in some seaside resort arcade game which cheapens and lowers the value of such a good game as Eve.

As HI-SEC illegal podding is possibly a reason for the fall off of new players trying to start in eve, and fairly established players deciding they have had enough of this new phenomenon that has started, and left, I suggest that in the case of Illegal podding in HI-SEC SPACE either on miners, or from gate camps, that ...

1. The podded entity is "resurrected" back at the LAST station it UNDOCKED from, with its complete compliment of implants if any.
2. The ship with all its modules and rigs if any, replaced there too.

ie for the victim player it is as if the incident never happened.

As for the perpetrator, as CONCORD will destroy the ship but at the moment doesn't pod the capsuleer, I suggest

1. as punishment for such an action, the game CAN pod the perpetrator and resurrect them back at their "HOME" station with a NEW bare clone, and a rookie ship. (like it does with the victim now)
2. That NO kill rights are issued for the incident to the victim, and no criminal flag is issued to the perpetrator, ie no need for revenge.
3. There is no ship debris at the point of the incident of either the perpetrator or the victim.

hopefully this action will bring back established players who may have lost a lot through illegal ganking and got fed up and left, and also, wont deter new players from staying on after their trial period.
this way the victim isn't at a loss for this incident, and the perpetrator just gets a slap on the wrist off CONCORD.

For the so called perpetrators, well they have 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.0, and Worm Hole space to carry on with that aspect of the game.

This is not an issue or workaround and I would recommend you take it to the features and ideas sub forum.

As for your ideas, I cannot support them as they are against the core elements of the game of risk.

I can see from your killboard history that you suffered a few losses from CODE. I am afraid this is part of the game.

13. Spamming is prohibited.

Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or nonsensical post that has no substance and is often designed to annoy other forum users. This can include the words “first”, “go back to insert other game name” and other such posts that contribute no value to forum discussion. Spamming also includes the posting of ASCII art within a forum post, or the practice of “thread necromancy” which involved bumping of old threads for no justifiable reason.


17. Redundant and re-posted threads will be locked.

As a courtesy to other forum users, please search to see if there is a thread already open on the topic you wish to discuss. If so, please place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forums needlessly, causing good feedback and ideas to be lost. Please keep discussions regarding a topic to a single thread.


As there is already a thread open in the correct forum, this one gets a lock.
