So...i've read on reddit that apparently pretty much every major PVP groups are leaving the game, due to the lack of motivation to legit reroll their ship.

Meaning that "pretty much" every major PVP groups were involved in this. Interesting.

Best news I've had all day, if true.
 
[haha] Even Zarek Null is ripping the peas out of SDC over on Reddit & not getting put to the sword as is usually the case.

It would appear Frontier have kicked the err stuffing, out of those dudes - what is this strange feeling I have?...

*checks google*

... oh, it's apparently something called 'sympathy' [blah]

Arggh. I gotta like Zarek "The Overlord" Null now too?!?
This day has been a bit much for me...I think I...think I...
*thud*
 
"In recent days potentially hundreds of PVP pro bros have had their exploited modules removed from them by an unforgiving developer in a tough galaxy. These poor commanders cannot seem to cope in a cutthroat galaxy without having more powerful shields and weapons than everyone else, can you help? Please all you need to do is contact one of these poor souls via Reddit or Discord and arrange to meet them in game, maybe you could drop some materials for them, watch their six as they mine in a now, dangerous RES or maybe you could just donate credits in one form or another. Please, if you care and can help please contact us by texting 'I WASN'T EVER GUD' to 64588 or call 0800 MYMODULES.

Thank you."
+Rep... though personally I would be more inclined to turn tables on them while I had the chance... if I were viciously inclined, personally I don't see the point behind responding in kind - I would much rather play ED my way than stoop to their level... they can whistle if they expect any help though, more likely to have people show up with pop-corn. :rolleyes:

From what I'm gathering so far, the manner in which you've conducted your exploit punishment have been nothing less than extremely clumsy. Instead of only removing the rolls which were exploited, you've also elected to remove anything that might have been a legitimate roll. What you're literally telling us is "We know you cheated, but since we can't tell which module you cheated to upgrade, we're taking this sledgehammer to everything we think might have been exploited." I'm seeing a lot of people having lost their legitimately upgraded modules... and some performed the exploit once out of curiosity.

You're losing players pulling this stuff, guys. It's bad enough you guys took said sledgehammer to anything that looked suspicious, but according to reddit posts some people still have their exploited modules.

I'm really glad I didn't let my curiosity get the better of me... I probably would have had my FAS wiped from existence if I had from ONE module.

[EDIT] Since some people would rather not actually read the thread and see that I attempted to clarify, I might as well add this in. I jumped the gun and posted this believing that any roll viewed as "suspect" would be targeted. I didn't spend a month dedicated to engineering my FAS in all aspects to have it dedicated over a false positive, you know. But obviously as more information has come out it seems FDev have a way of actually tracking these things, so... I tried admitting to the mistake, but nobody's actually READING the thread.

Y'all really like to resort to immediate derision and vitriol to any opinion you don't like though, do you? What a nice bunch you are. :p
Well I''m not feeling like reading the whole thread, so I will simply say that:

If I was FDEV, I would have banned those players from open play or private groups for a whole year. So I believe they are quite reasonable to just remove the affected modules upgrades.

I've started a Just Giving page. We need urgent supplies of saline bags, cannulae and lines. These folk are suffering, people, they've lost a lot of salt and fluids.

And mods. Lots of mods.

Im confused...I thought SDC wanted to bring attention to exploited mechanics and even had operation spicy bois 2 announced...was the operation not successful?

Yet now they quitting because they got caught doing the very thing they wanted frontier to fix?

Today just gets better and better ^

Can't rep you right now Tom but thank you, please give again - if you can :D
 
Not sure if the correct thread ?

Fdev I have 35 ships all holding modded modules and my module storage is nearly full again can we get more space for all the modified modules we have ?

I have soooooooo many modified modules :)

The operation allegedly was a full success - FD addressed the issue at hand before they would even start.
