Wait a few days before griefing...

What an odd thing to say. He's talking about hunting down specific 'griefers', not players in general. Once he's got on a level playing field of having a ship to match them. That's a completely different thing to attacking new and defenseless players just for the fun of ruining other people's experience.
Well obviously this PKer is (very poor) at combat and only wants to take on what he believes to be a weak opponent...
What he said! ^^
Stay in open game mode with the stock sidewinder,
do not upgrade it and try to make some money with bounties.
You can learn the game the hard way,
or you can not learn at all.
There are several possible ways of
evading a gun-blazing player,
just get a bit creative and don't
run home to mama "solo".
It is a hard lesson,
but it is a lesson worth learning.
If the universe gives you lemons,
try to launch them at the players attacking you.

A self confessed bully !I've been pretty much killing newbies since release, well, not really killing. I leave their hull at 1% with everything damaged and just leave them drifting there, takes them a while to find the self destruct button. It's fun
Edit: actually scratch that, a self confessed sadist .. love it! Need more from the fringes of society to spice up this game

Well yes; for some one (very poor) at combat it isn't griefing.
This is what open world PvP is about in most games - making people miserable. Good we have a decent way to unflag ourselves for PvP plus no PvP lasers that do 20% more damage than what you get just by the grind
Mmm yes, and I always thought the point of gaming was to make people have fun, not be miserable? This is one of the main reasons I dislike online gaming; you're always going to get idiots who are there just to spoil people's fun.
True...where was that from? One of the Batman films? I'm sure I remember Michael Caine saying those words.
I love that so many people when talking about PVP bring the "well games are supposed to be fun" argument to bear as some reason to be able to be immune to it even though it is completely immersion breaking and/or in-lore unrealistic. They then turn around on a dime and tell people to "stop being 5 year olds with ADD" whenever someone asks for a way to spend less than 500 hours of grinding to get a python. cognitive dissonance at its very very finest <3
