And in other news, alt account is being turned off and main account is flopping even closer as I am loosing interest in EVE. Last I kept hearing, it was very difficult to make implants appear on KM and now I relize this is just the standard CCP smoke screen being blow out of their ass to cover for "Opps, we made a mistake like how probes couldn't be added to overview but now its an easy add and got to come up with some mumbo-jumbo as to why its damn near impossible to correct the pods so we are going to lie about it." And yet its being implemented with in weeks of CCP's quick change of focus and it wasn't even a hugely requested feature, next up unscannable Orca hold no longer unscannable because a line of text -> scan doesn't exist at the moment and CCP to half assed until some wierd moment to fix it.
This change to pod mails doesn't even affect game play at all, its just to encourage statwhores to print on paper those lovely killmails, stuff it in a tubesock, and self-dickpunch with KY jelly + kleenix (like a couple rounds getting punched by Mike Tyson) to destroy pods with disposable alts in destroyers. The KM effiency will go up astronomicly while aggressive players avoid risk in cheap ships, anything can destroy a pod and now I see headhunting groups popping hundreds of millions worth of implants in 3 mill ships. AFK in a frig is the thing of the past, even cargo less will get popped in highsec more often then it does now just because the pod will bloat someone's killboard. Yet I do remember seeing a dev mentioning this idea was bad to discourage people from focusing on pods after a gank, now even Udema will light up even more.
Only reason this feature is being implemented, CCP can't come up with a reliable isk sink except to make it more worthwile for said dickpunching statwhores to destroy pods with +5 implants. +5 are to expensive to replace on a consistant basis, so you avoid combat and don't buy much else. CCP "encourages" other players to take those +5 from you, which being that they reduce alot of time spent aquiring SP (TIME is worth more to me then ISK) means you have to replace them and I just can't bother to grind out more isk while stressing out some basement rat isn't going to pop the pod the very next day after replacing it. EVE isn't worth it and I just don't really care more.
