Kill Marks for JFs and Freighters

. . . so to speak.

I'd like to see a "killmark" on JFs for every 100 light years jumped, on freighters and haulers for every 100 gate transits.

On rock and ice miners for every . . . i don't know 100K m3 of material mined? 1 Million m3?

Think of the pride in owning a long-lasting indy ship, especially in the gank climate (real or imagined) that we play in. Think of the pride in taking down a JF that has hundreds of light years on it, or a Mack that has mined millions of m3 in ore.

That is all.

It would more often than not result in risk adverse players repackaging there ships periodically to remove the kill marks, who would intern whine on the forums that rigs are destroyed when a ship is repackaged.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

What rigs can you put on a Freighter or Jump Freighter?

Edit: Don't worry, OP has included haulers in the suggestion, not only JFs and Freighters.


@OP - Not a bad idea for Freighters/JFs. Could be a good way to market the effectiveness of your services, as those ships are often used to cart freight for other people. For other ships? No.

A mark for kill rights a ship has earned would be kind of cool but not if it required a lot of development time

Why not kill marks for kills?

There may not be a lot of opportunities to score kills with a freighter, but to eliminate discrimination these ships should also have killmark slots on the off-chance some freighter manages to make a kill.

I'd rather have them be service bills for routine maintenance for light years jumped plastered on the side of the hull lol
