Don't count sleeper kills in the player kills total

Title says it all, if a player has been logged out for more than a couple of hours, killing them shouldn't add to your profile.

It is fine as it is. If you can't afford tax to sleep in a base... don't go to sleep. If you can't find a nice and safe sleeping spot... don't go to sleep. I say keep the kill count and keep the reward for a sleeper kill.

Kind Regards,

The exp hardly matters, but I think a player count that only shows how many PvP kills you've gotten would be cool. So maybe don't count in player kills, but keep the exp loss so players still feel the need to port when they log.

The problem is that pods cannot sleep on cols so if the exp whores have all the systems near sol lasererd then they get free exp and the player kills goes up as well even though they are not online.

I always wanted the PK changed to a actual reflection of Space Fight PK, Planet PK and Sleeper PK....could be broken into 3 categories in a player profile pretty easy. Not that it matters much but it is a more accurate reflection of a players PK skill, not random sleeper killing.

definately would be nice to have combat kills counted separately from sleeper kills
