You mean like other modes people cant interfere with YOUR actions ?
Again, this whole "hide in solo" nonsense. You can equally hide well in Open. Are you going to send four wings of expert player-killers to deal with me in Swoiwn JT-O B24-1?
If you say so, but manipulation of the game to suit your needs is still cheating to me. But either way, what does this have to do with anything?

thats ur assumption...so please bring us proof for that
yes, my assumption based on my in game experience.
No offense but that is pure . They are not creating a Massively Soloplayer Online game. They created a game so that PVPers and PVEers can both enjoy the game and in their own small way influence it. Your doing a ME, ME, ME thing. YOU want the chance to interdict players that don't want to PVP because YOU feel that YOUR play style and YOUR plans are more important that others and that if they play solo they are "hiding" because YOU can't have combat effect on them. What you are not hearing is that you have the same effect on their game as they have on yours.
That is just it Jordan - there is NO manipulation of the game required.
Still that doesnt make u right
I'd actually prefer some sort of Pirate Ombudsman where I can complain to about the poor quality of service.
Anyway, we digress. How many players do you guess I have seen in Open since the start of Gamma? (Bear in mind I am Allied with both Empire and Federation, Friendly with Alliance and have oodles of permits).Your network is part of the game. It's what you use to play the game.

I just don't know anymore, I play almost exclusively in Group mode.
Frontier however seem intent on a more PVP/competition orientated game, to some extent I can see why with the popularity of things like Destiny on Xbox etc..
Maybe a PVP flag would be the solution, not very immersive but it would be the least damaging compromise.

Yes, and it is utterly mine - absolutely nobody else has any say in what I do with it. After all, it's not theirs. Surely you can see what I mean.
About 15. Space is big, yo.
But still, that's like flipping the table you were playing chess on, and then claiming it's ok because it's yours and you want to take it back.

I've seen over 15 players in 3 hours alone. I'm assuming you don't do community goals or pp?
it doesn't make me wrong either. I have enough experience fighting players to know what they are capable of, i've done my research.

This is assumes we are not operating in specific location. The assumption you are making is that I only want to hunt the cowards that hide in solo mode. That is not true. My comment was that those in solo mode can undermine my efforts with no risk of doing so.
If our activities are in a small group of systems that are NOT Swoiwn JT-O B24-1, we frankly don't care that you are there. You are no interest to us at that point.
The Open/Solo overlap destroys any long term planning or strategic thought for the players. The players are reduced to simple combat tactics (which often involve running from the bigger ship) and space trucking. The entertaining part of the game is being played by those ten developers that give you all little guys the orders.
There is no way to personally invested in this game. I have spent the past three days arguing about this in the forum because that is more fun than actually playing the game at this point.

well there is no manipulation of the game possible ... which is maybe why it technically isn't a game.
I think you'll be very welcome in my ignore list - bye!
Not at all Jordan - you and I have faced off 3 or 4 times now in Open, with nul points. That's not exactly flipping the chessboard over.
That was sarcasm. I don't care that people play in solo mode. However, Asp Explorer is suggesting that I all want to do is hunt people in solo mode as if I think they are 'cowards'.
There we go, true colours at last.
