This post makes absolutely no sense (and whats with the Jew comment? Racism isn't cool, man)... when there's huge blobs then taking them out before the timer is easy peasy.

No, not it shouldn't. Self Destruct is there to prevent time griefing, where you get pointed, bubbled and re-aggressed to keep you there indefinitely. Thats the whole point of SD, if you get caught by assholes who are ok with idling for an hour or more while preventing you from playing the game. Everyone should have the ability to SD whenever the **** they want, except that a KM should be generated if the player was aggressed. CCP does not even have to make a lot of changes, just add Self Destruct as an involved party to the KM with the amount of damage that resulted from SDing. Simple.


Because CCP removed ejecting, amirite?

EDIT for clarification: I still maintain SD'ing should exist for capsules.

First off your arguments don't excuse making comments like that go do your shitposting somewhere else.

Secondly as Gnaw said the simplest solution would just be to add self destruct as a aggressing party. problem solved.

Now we just need to whinge and ***** till CCP actually implements this :)

The issue is obviously self destructing in POS's, of which it makes no logical sense, firstly how you can initiate self destruct in a secure environment and then how it doesnt take any form of damage destructing in the confined space. I think self destruct as a whole need to be looked at as from a role playing perspective i find it hard to see how ibis rookie ships take the same time to self destruct as titans.

Well, in case you got trapped without a probe or a way out, eject wont help you. Since your ship will just remain drifting in space, someone will scan it down sooner or later and generate a kill mail. So no, SDing a ship should still be there but like bubbles or POS should be displayed on killmail.

I think that when somebody ejects from a self-distructing ship the self-distructing ships should stop - also maybe when self-distructing when inside a ship the pod should be lost as well

Any thoughts ??

I'm quite sure it does. At least it did ~2 years ago. When I was bombed out of my first wormhole by Russians, I wanted to self-destruct some ships. To speed up the process, I initiated SD, then switched to another ship, initiated SD and then the next. Effect was, none of the ships blew up. Which was good, because then I reconsidered. We waited for reinforced to kick in and evacuated almost everything during the night :D

My 2cents,

If they self destruct while aggressed = Killmail
Keep the self destruct so someone doesn't just hold them there forever because they are a #####.

If you give CCP too much to think about like pos's and self destruct they will screw it up and it will never get done.
Keep it simple stupid!

Judaism is a religion, not a race, the jewish people do not share a common ancestry.

Jewish people are an ethnoreligious group. You can argue that they don't share common ancestry because their diaspora has intermixed with other races, but then again so has every other ethnic group out there.

I dont see the issue with SDing inside a POS, sounds like scorched earth, which is a valid tactic.

I guess SDs should generate some sort of record not just for KM whores but it can be frustrating putting all that work in to take down a super and having not only no loot to show for it but no record either.

It does.

I use it all the time for hopping around the EVE cluster without having to resort to 20+ jumps if I have a ship or something way the hell out there.

1) Set Clone Location as close as possible to target ship/wormhole/racial space/etc

2) make sure clone is up to date

3) Undock, self-destruct

If you didnt care so much about a stupid killmail you would be happy but nah, all about the KMs.

Thats why you bring 150 people to fight 50 people, just to make sure you kill everyone of them.
