Someone pods you and you only have 1 month to legally get him back?

Where's the logic in that? I thought EVE was supposed to be this cut-throat, no holds barred game. Make the kill right permanent until restitution or revenge takes place.

Let's see the bad-ass pirates strut there stuff in high-sec then.

Or is that too hardcore for the itty-bitty babies? Awwww.....

You do realize that you can kill them after that month is up, right? You just have to deal with the same hurtles they did to kill you.

What do you mean only one month? If you can't get it done in that timeframe there is something seriously wrong

Sounds like you got podded. Cool

Too short time for you to find your courage and actually try to do something about it?

Edit: Inappropriate part removed, CCP Phantom.

Revenge is best served cold...and when the victim feels safe and secure. Not when on alert for one month.

You know that actually playing EVE takes time away from finding reasons not to play it and posting on the forums, right?

You can kill anyone as long as they aren't cloaked in the middle of space or docked.

Killrights are for cowards.

You really think he's even going to remember who you are after a week? I have personally never care or worry about people I ganked/podded coming back to get me, and I don't know anyone who does.

But don't let that deter you. Go ahead and chestbeat some more about how people are scared of you for a month after podding you.

So you agree, killrights should be permanent? Big bad capsuleer like yourself wouldnt be deterred by this right?Pirate

I think CCP put killmails so that we could keep track of our kills... doesn't matter to me though. Just takes up space in my character sheet.

Did you mean hurdles, or is that some kind of high-speed, space-faring Turtle of Justice introduced to the game recently?

Because that would be cool.

Sure. Whatever. If I shot and killed you once, I can shoot and kill you again, and will likely be prepared for combat anyway.

I don't think you get it: people who know their PvP don't really care about kill rights at all because a) we don't hang out in hisec, and b) when we do, we are usually in control of the situation, even if it goes downhill, and c) losing ships is an everyday occurrence; "Oh no, you killed me. *slow clap*"

Every time I see you create a thread it's because you want to change game mechanics that are making things too difficult for you. You cant exactly talk about "too hardcore" in that manner...

Besides if it was a pirate that killed you then, practically, you already have a permanent kill right on them because they're permablinky. Having or not having kill rights on them makes no difference at all.

But yeah, like someone already said, if you cant get the killing done in one month then you dont really deserve more time anyway.

Actually what I was saying is you seem to be unable to cope with eve's harshness and your ideas are not about making eve better, they're about making it easier for you. Nothing more. Still you're trolling others, saying the game is too hardcore for them? That's funny, I like irony.

Nothing wrong with discussing it on the forums.
It wont go anywhere though. No matter how long it stays on the front page.

If killrights are extended, your ebil piewate who ganked you will be equally alert and ready for you as long as the killright is active. If you want cold revenge, figure out who the pirate's hisec alt is and gank his freighter or whatever.
