What type of onion is it? mild, cooking, white, shallot, pickling, green, salad, red or supersweet?
So apparently this isnt hacking.

That's silly if that's the case, but like I said, my 720 ton Clipper has jumped away from FDLs without being mass-locked. It'll be interesting to see for myself, for sure.
He was on my tail at about 700 meters when I started charging a jump to SC. He was a player who rammed me in an RES until my shields dropped and at the time my ship wasn't built enough to stand and fight.
white that I hope will be somewhat sweet.
as such combats are pure P2P managed types, FD has NO way to check, if the guy edited his ship values. this vid suggests, that he edited his mass lock factor....
but sure...no hacking....
seriously?
well.....then open play is over for me....finally...
private group incoming
maybe we should create a "non cheating PVP group" ?

Seems somewhat odd that you would let one instance bother you that much. Its not as if cheating isnt rife in every other online MP game in the history of gaming. Whilst that's not condoning it, its just a matter of fact. Its like saying you are never going to drive your car again because you once saw someone driving one you thought was stolen. Somewhat bonkers if you ask me, which you didn't!
It could have been a bug. I have seen a lot of weird things happen, which should not be possible under normal circumstances, but I think most of them were bugs, problems with network sync or whatever.
He reported it, the devs looked into it (which is good) and couldn't find any proof for a hack, so we have to accept that. The game is still so full of bugs and network-related problems, one should always be careful accusing other players of hacking. Reporting suspicious things is fine, discussing each case in the forum not so much, especially when the devs have already looked into a case and couldn't find anything.
Remember to submit such things like video evidence on http://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/ , too.
they even stated they would not even if hack invovled: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=111267&page=3&p=1745119&viewfull=1#post1745119
when i see a stolen car and i report it inkl. name of the theft to the police, i can be sure, that actions will happen!
he comes to jail (solo mode)
easy as that
and as it happened MORE than once obviously, i dont think it was a bug
so FD not doing anything and stating, they cannot see any hacking at all, is just.....meh

It is there.
Well, technically, the mods are not FD and FD are not the mods. Now, the mods get guidance from FD, but I hope that is it.
Mmm, the difference is that here we're mixing P2P and PvP- which always ends in a horrible hackfest if it gets at all competitive.
Its another thread about masslock and its mysterious lack of relations with mass lol, this is how it works
What is your masslock number? for python/clipper/asp/T9/T7 (probably some more) this is 18, for dropship 20, FDL 22, Anaconda 24. Greater = lock, lower = no effect regardless of number of ships.
Are you within 3km? Masslock is 100% effective until 3km, at which point it has no effect.
Thats it, there is absolutely nothing else involved, 98 ships don't count, having a cargo hold full of slaves doesn't count, making your Python weigh 900t doesn't count.
oh and high energy jumps aren't subjected to masslock

This said, I believe the reason for removing the video was the intend to name and shame the python in it by the OP as he appeared to be unhappy with the result of FD's investigation into the matter.
