Not so much like that with everyone but there is a slight chance that there is some alterative motive.

Ulterior motives? That’s way too common not to see It coming.

Well maybe not to judge a book by it’s cover.

/eg;  
a thread reply that makes someone seem like a jerk, do that mean that they are jerks all the time?

re; Ulterior motives? Yes that is what I mean.

Only way to explain inconsistencies by a number of posters. They forget what hat they wear.

Oh I see what you mean. You don’t have to find them excuses.  
And you’re no jerk so it’s all cool

Well this is not entirely true as for a far long time I had been seeking one frozen corpse and going to great lengths in requesting such frozen corpse by sending gifts ingame.

If it’s In-Game it’s all good. EVE encourages douchebagery

ESI does contain most of the data you would need the SDE making up the bulk of the rest, zkill can only pull killmails it has the ID and hash for so people need to allow access to their kill log or post the links to the kills manually for them to be added

would this help?

Return a single killmail from its ID and hash

Alternate route: `/dev/killmails/{killmail_id}/{killmail_hash}/`

Alternate route: `/legacy/killmails/{killmail_id}/{killmail_hash}/`

Alternate route: `/v1/killmails/{killmail_id}/{killmail_hash}/`

</div>

Sure but it still requires you to know the killmail ID (which can be guessed) and the hash (which is unrealistic to guess)

If you can’t provide a valid hash it won’t give you the killmail data
