Hiya everyone. I am fairly new to EVE and just wanted to get a feel for when people POD other pilots. Do you: POD those you are war with POD those who try to enter your space POD those who initiate a fight POD those who have angered you(ore stealers scammers.. etc.) POD anyone you initiate against (even in 0.1 - 0.9) Have the view "POD the Universe"
Before everyone starts flaming and calling people carebares. this is not about that. Last night i was attacked in 0.4 (yes i know you take your risks in that space) but was supprised that they then podded me too?? the person had a 4.1 positive security rateing (well he did have now its 2.4) and just wondering if there are heaps that fight like this? this 0.4 system was close to empire space too.. and a fair way from any 0.0's Pls keep coments to usefull ones

Well, when I first started pira.... freelancing, I was kind of shy about pod killing other players. Part of me was thinking, "I don't want to be too mean to this guy."
After a while, I started saying "I MUST CONSUME HIS IMMORTAL SOUL AND FEAST UPON HIS FLESH! THE INNOCENT MUST SUFFER!"
So, you get used to it after a while really. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity. |

It boils down to whether or not you respect the other guy and yourself I guess.
If you're some 200 members beating the crap out of some 15 guy outfit and they stand their ground I'd consider it unclassy to pod their pilots and ruin the little pet war you got going.

Eeh, why NOT pod ?
I mean, war is waged out fo conlict of interests. To prevail means damaging your enemy. To damage your enemy most you pod.
That's how I see it and practice it every day. Originally by: Aneu Angellus Iv held back from posting on this thread for quite some time, but i think the time had come for me to come in and post.

VERY true,TBH i have poded ppl i think are cool,and missed total nubs pods...POD when you think is right,will it make your opponents suffer and fear you eg? if you have had a realy good fight,maybe let them go as a thank you. i know after my ship has gone pop ppl have let me go due to the fact i dont smacktalk and gave a good fight... totaly up to the player!

I pod anyone im at war with... like CA or celes, if i ever get the chance. i tend to think of it as damaging my foes. other than that, i pod people who i think are spys, but i usually give them 1 chance. (i.e. if they warp back in and sit there in a pod, i destroy it. or, if they **** me off. like this one person who called me an ass when i had there pod 1/2 dead and scrambled. i was going to let her go... then she called me an ass. *squelch* --- 'Sweeden Steel Bite hard'

Edited by: Scorpyn on 23/12/2004 02:27:20 In the beginnig of my pvp "career", I almost never podkilled ppl - we destroyed the ship, but let the pod warp out in most cases.
You'd be surprised to see how many pods that just didn't leave after their ship was destroyed - they could sit there for minutes, until we told them to leave and they did.
Then I joined a 0.0 alliance, and since you only enter 0.0 on your own risk if you know the dangers and so on (at least that's how it should be), I learned to always try to get the pod.
So, I usually try to get the pod, but it depends on the circumstances aswell - sometimes it's better to go for the next target instead and so on.
POD those you are war with - YES POD those who try to enter your space - YES POD those who initiate a fight - YES POD those who have angered you(ore stealers scammers.. etc.) - YES (If I can be bothered to fight them) POD anyone you initiate against (even in 0.1 - 0.9) - YES Have the view "POD the Universe" - No, I usually try to not podkill ppl with +10 standing (including corp mates) unless they ask me to

If its worth expending time and ammo on a ship, its worth expending time and ammo on a pod.
Originally by: Sochin CCP has provided you with the tools you need to avoid crime. You're just too lazy/stupid to use them.

Of course there are times when you shouldn't pod. Like when you are engaging multiple ships, you don't want to attack a pod when others are still attacking you and your friends. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity. |

If you have a reason to shoot his ship you have a reason to shoot his pod.
Hence, if you have no reason to shoot his pod, you have no reason to shoot his ship.
Sometimes the universe is simple.
