you take away public km apis and sites like zkill will stop functioning as there will no longer be ways to easily upload and no way to validate


KMs create what is probably the most inorganic situations in eve. remove them and people pew because they want to pew rather than they want to pad


you are assuming that everyone will undock and eve will be a bustling battleground of good fights because the removal of killmails, no it wont, people are still going to be cautious of losing the ships because they have to replace them. all it really does is makes people even more cautious because your hunter alts and supercap blob is now invisible.

We need to get rid of killmails, if anything. Not add more to them. If it's available only to you, fine, but public killmails and killboards are a bad thing.


this is true, I cant tell you how many "pvp" corps ive been in that's been extremely strict.....I cant say the word as it isn't allowed on forums. you die for some reason you have to be "counseled" if they don't out right kick you, your only allowed to do something in a hole or null system if you have an alt on every hole or surrounding system, or can only undock if everyone else is on.

Also killmarks on Killmails will only have gankers on your case to ruin your streak....

no intel = pretty much hidden hunters

but it's not no intel. just no free intel. even players one on for a couple of months have no issue spotting out hunters w/o killboards the ships and flying patterns are easy to learn. not to mention you only need to see them do it once to add a note to them. Killboards also can give both a false seance of safety and risk. many of our hunters have managed to keep their KBs clean with only the odd death that is easy to bury.
