Confess your sins. Which exploits have you used?

Tried re-logging a few times for mining missions back a few versions but found it to be very boring so stopped.
.
Switched to solo a couple of times to get a landing pad at an outpost.
.
I think that is it...
 
Lots of exploit discunions at the moment. I like it. It cleans the air and let FD know what people feel about the shady side of ED.

It's now time to confess your sins to Father Han_Zen. Which exploits or potential exploits have you used during your time in ED?

I'll go first:

- Just after release I exploited the fact that you could get 'Source Slaves' missions at stations that sold slaves, to get my Sirius permit in Avik.
- I have done plenty of relogging to get Meta-Alloys.
- I mode switched to get Modular terminals for Quent.
- I have probably mode switched to get long range smugling missions from Maia(Not quite sure about this one).

Next!

Definition of exploit: If you think it may not have been intended by the devs to work in the way you used it. It's a possible exploit.

Wow, SO MANY people are under the impression that cheating is OK, which it isn't. players Relogging, using exploits etc should be perma banned.
 
I've been using spreadsheets & screenshots to take notes of market prices to make the most out of my gold & slave profits.
What do I need to do to clear myself from this sin?

And I've broken a ceasefire in a CZ just so I could fulfil my kill-contract. At least 5 times.

Usually I will play as it is meant to be played, but if I need quick rebuy cash, I will mode switch, just like seemingly lots of you. Also if the old Tun ranking thing counts, I did that.

I get the idea of banning people who use exploits, I really do. But wow! You're seriously suggesting that logging out of the game and logging back in again should result in a permanent ban?

You haven't really thought this through, have you?

Are you for real ? Relogging is immersion breaking but by no stretch could it be considered an cheat. It has been in the game since the start, FDev have known this for a long time and have done nothing to stop it.

You can take our Modules!
You can take our Rank!
You can take our Monies!
But you'll never take...

Our Cookies! Freedom!

Quince is fine. I'm happy with the module wipe too :)
 
I have done the Robigo/Sothis runs when they were first discovered. That's about it. I was also in 17 draconis but I did the missions the legit way by going into CZs alone, went off when I noticed that there's actually a player group which got its BGS screwed over because of these missions.
 
I exploited the predictability of these kinds of "you too" threads by predicting it and then pretending the prediction was something extraordinary. Cheating is predictable, leveling is as well.
