Posting a Killmail or Lossmail

Step By Step Instructions for Posting a Killmail or Lossmail

note: the following 7 steps are typically not necessary any more because the killboard picks up kills and losses automatically; in fact, these instructions might not even work, for example, because the killmail parser might choke on unknown weapons or items. Wait for an hour after your loss or kill and see whether it was picked up automatically.

1. Open up your "Character Sheet" in the NeoCom.

2. Click "Combat Log".
   
   
   
   You should see the following 3 options:
   
   
   
   
   • Kills
   • Losses
   • Settings
     
     
3. Click the "Kills" or "Losses" tab, and Right-click "Copy Kill Information". Kills and losses must be posted separately, including capsule losses.

6. Submit the form.
7. If your post was successful, you will be provided with a link to the new page (click the word "here" in the success message). Follow that link to the new page.

Add a comment on the new page. The comment form should be located on the lower left of the new page. If it is not visible, refresh your browser until it displays:

NOTE: The comment should explain briefly the engagement conditions; who aggressed first, security status or corp standing of the opponent, solo or fleet engagement, etc. Comments do not appear immediately after posting, there is usually a few minutes delay.

Killboard Comments

NOTE: While a member of EVE University, you are required to comment on ALL of your Kill and Loss Mails. Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action.

Do NOT include a link to the AAR. Do NOT name the FC, scout, or anyone else in the comment.

All Killmails must be posted even from an Eve University member against another Eve University member or an NPC. If it was a case of wartime SOP violation or anything else of the sort, it should be reported to the Student Relations Manager.

To comment you must first find your password you must be logged into the forum click User Control Panel then go to Profile then edit profile and you should be able to see your password. If you have not appeared on the killfeed as an IVY League member (killed someone or been killed) you will not be able to log in or comment, if you have just had your first kill you may have to wait an hour or so for the killfeed to acknowledge your existence.
