I had no prob with pvp in kessel. What i did have a prob with was the camping the spawn in spot. You would load and not even have time to react and you are dead. Do i think pvp should stay in kessel yes. Do i think that maybe a timer or ever a 100 meter safe zone for when you load in should be there yes.
It is no fun to load into kessel and not even have the chance to fight. Blame the campers and greifers for the pvp being taken out not the ppl who are mad over being killed. I really do not know how 10+ ppl can camp the load in spot and kill someone before they have a chance to load can be fun. To me that is just plain greifing.
I love to pvp and am sad to see pvp gone in kessel but i also see the other side of this matter.

Since when was PvP removed from Kessel? I was there not even an hour ago and PvP was still working...
Is it just me? Or am I imagining something?
Oh, and on your point... I don't mind doing the PvP in Kessel, I just managed to do the mission and had little problems, I do totally agree with you that the Spawn Camper Killers are annoying and just because a player shoots somebody down in Kessel doesnt neccessarily mean they are there to grief somebody...
However, I have yet to do the Corvette Mission... (I need players in Ahazi willing to help me with this if possible)... and I probably should not be opening my mouth to praise PvP when it is entirely likely that I will be killed when I try and do the mission, lol.
But on the same note, I agree with you... But I seriously don't remember PvP being removed from Kessel... when did this happen?

I would of supported PvP in Kessel if the spawn points were random instead of fixed, I'd like to think that would of solved most of the problems.

According to TH next Tuesday 11/16PvP in Kessel goes Astalabyebye.
Good riddence to it until they find a workable solution.

WOW, I didn't think that it would be changed that fast. Only one week and people are mad that they can't master something. I mastered Privateer, the hard way. Soloed the 30 TIEs and lead the attack on the Corvette. After next Tuesday, I know that none of the new masters get any respect from the people who did it the right way. Now it won't take any skill to become a master, what a letdown. If the mechanics of damage and decay in space combat were changed to mirror the ground I would have thought that many of the people who are very vocal about complaining about this would go silent.

Skill?!? Loading into Kessel and not getting jumped is LUCK, pure and simple (the only SKILL involved would be outrunning a fight). As for skill, after you've done enough Vette runs it becomes a chore, not a challenge. Get maybe two people in dedicated bombers, friggin' pelt the thing with spacebombs, disable the engines, et voila!
This game would be a lot better if they coded a PvP warning alarm/indicator that warned you when a player has locked you up.
I'd expect another Kessel-like PvP zone sooner or later. Who knows, you might even get Fondor or Mon Cal for some REAL capship combat. I know as an Imperial, I'd LOVE to take down an MC-80. Screw Corvettes, gimme a cruiser!

In one week it will be removed from Kessel. Instead of creating a substitute for the players who want to fight other players fairly, they completely removed it from this zone.
