' Wrote:It is a suicide message though, and is going to stay that way. There are other more enterprising ways to
keep your hold of your guns, than deliberately flying into a planet. Not very 'roleplay' is it ?

You get the same one if an npc rams you and, since you're in the process of docking, you accidentally crash into Planet Stuttgart!
Which is why the insurance fraud one is great. Or something like:
<Player> forgot what docking rings are for!

How about for suicide message.
"Player x is going to need a new ship."
For real I'd like the suicide message to include a bit more spunk and scorn for the player. It's a not the greatest way after all, so a little kick in the back wouldn't hurt.
Maybe: "Player X's ship suffered irreparable damage." or "Player X's ship spun out of control."
or even more wicked.
"Player X's incompetence caused the ship to explode." or "That incompetent X lost another ship."

"X pressed a few buttons he shouldnt, which caused his ship to blow up"
:lol:

It currently says: <charname> suffered a self inflicted catastrophic decompression.
I think that sums up their respective flying skills now.

The new suicide message is horrid... Who cares if you go to a guard system or Connecticut after you’ve lost all your guns to suicide? Especially when you’ve got weapons that require you to travel across half of Sirius to replace them. Please, show me one person who docks after losing their shield and all guns and I’ll show you a liar.
EDIT: That one's good, Hoodlum.
My post was about the "shot in the head" one we had earlier.

Show me someone who could let a hostile base blow them up then ? Or another player perhaps ?

Player has suffered from spontaneous human combustion
edit: for all you who don't know, this is when a person suddenly bursts into flame

<charname> has foolishly pressed the big red button under the the sign that says 'warning! do not press!'
Server death messages - Grumblesaur - 02-26-2009
<Player> has gone Blood Dragon and committed Hara-Kiri.
<Player> leaned on the self-destruct button.
<Player> just lost his girlfriend, iPod, and money.
<Player> just gave us more ideas for death messages.
<Player> has been owned.
<Player> just learned that crash landings hurt.

Nice one Hood.
Could the suicide be so that it charges 500k from your char?
I know there some issues with it like what if the char does not have 500k, but a small penalty would be nice.
