Oh COME ON. Lost 43M Credits to a simple misunderstanding...

"TheoJones" you and I are basically on the same page as far as exploits are concerned. However, I have a bit more relaxed yardstick when it came to Quince.
I would be genuine bummed when I was coming in for a landing on the planet and someone else's scan would "complete" my stack. I felt I'd been cheated (odd term to use here) by not being able to complete my missions. The lubrication to my moral compass was the observed FD stance on the operations in Quince. Obviously it was fixable as it is now (mostly) fixed. They'd known about it. Known of the details, seen the discussions, yet choose to not change/correct the behaviour of the mission boards. The multiple data ports superimposed on each other. The "completion" of all missions by a single scan, from ANYONE on the local grid.
Ergo feature, not exploit. Their lack of action in any form for such a long period of time makes them complicit. IMO
 
One of the reasons that I reacted quite so badly to the usual trolling by the "git gud" denizens is that I don't do exploits.

Which doesnt explain in any way your inability to take any kind of responsibility for your mistakes, and need to immediately go on launching personal insults, wishing people here would die and blocking half a dozen people for no reason (beyond your inability to just deal with your own mistake). You can call it trolling if you want, but it kinda re-inforces what a crapton of people told you. :)

Compare your behavior with this OP from today:

Dude lost all his explo data 14 THOUSAND ly from home.

Whoah there tiger. I hadn't even commented until you dropped this lulzbomb despite having seen the thread on the day that you posted it but sorry, this is too much. People pointing out that you lost your credits because:

1) You sold a ship without realising that there was a 10% cost to do so and
2) because you sold it with all of your A-spec modules still equipped

has nothing to do with any 'git gud' nonsense. Nobody was decrying your skillz or lack thereof, they merely pointed out that it's not actually unreasonable to expect someone who has played the game since beta, or for long enough to gain access to Founders via an Elite rank, to be aware of basic mechanics like this that have been in place since the start. That goes double when the game shows you how much you are going to receive for selling something and you (presumably) know how much you paid for it

Now quick, get me on your ignore list before your echo chamber breaks.

+1

Also, the OP's post sounded like it was laced with bitterness at having been personally aggrieved by what is ultimately a one-time learning experience, and the implication that Frontier should 'fix' their game all felt a bit too "me me me". It's not what you say, it's how you say it...

And the same suggestion would have gone down so much better if it had been posted in the appropriate forum.

Not that the OP will consider this since I'm on his ignore list... :rolleyes:
