Vehicles humping other vehicles til they explode is not bad gameplay. It's totally legit.
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, so collisions should stay.
Maybe remove vehicle-on-vehicle collision damage but leave any immediate disruption.
That way if I hit a dropship with my derpship I can send it flying into the ground as I smash down on it without exploding.

Well, that's going a bit far.
Unintentional mechanics can break a game to the point of who can utilize it the quickest wins. I.E. CoD with quick scoping.
Collisions aren't an unintentional mechanic, it's just really, really, really, really fun.... Like thinking about taking a speed of light ride.
On the other hand saying vehicle ramming is cheap or lazy just because one person calls out a vehicle to suicide against another vehicle isn't accurate. It's high risk, high reward gameplay.
Errbody need to get objective, yo.

HEY! I'm amarr. And I say being able to ram is okey dokey! So thanks for unconditionally agreeing with what I have to say.
Just remove collision damage and keep environmental damage so i can ram into people at full speed and make them crash. I don't need the kill, I just want to ram people.
But still keep it so that I can gingerly creep up on snipers and squash them.

Exactly the point. CCP didn't intend jihad jeeps. But CCP did intend to create a game where players can invent their own tactics and strategies. And jihad jeeps embody the very soul of the game that CCP has told us they want to create. A sandbox.
Maybe they did though, intend to make jihad jeeps. If a bunch of kids (not saying you're all kids, but c'mon...) can think to use a fast vehicle as a murder device why couldn't CCP?

They didn't intend murder taxi's, so I find it highly doubtful that Jihad Jeeps were at all intended. They did state that Jihad's were unintended anyway...
Link?
