You mean menu-logging instead, that's confirmed by FDEV as definitely not cheating.
Looking for legal ways to irritate gankers in Open that are fun, cheap, easy and cheesy.

Just humiliating.
Point might be that they are PvPing someone who wants to be involved. Someone challenging themselves by going 1v3/4 whatever.. and for at least that period of time the gankers aren't kicking over little kids sand castles.
On a long enough time line, the guy going 1v3 is gonna end up the best combat pilot.
Only for those of us who get comically upset by it.
Not insane, the Cobra is a complete bar steward to strike, especially with PACs. I fly a DBS myself and used to use two PACs (TLB and Dispersal) with two Feedback Cascade railguns, and switched to four rails because I got my backside handed to me by a Cobra. The problem I faced, was the guy was at least as agile as my ship, so when I was facing him he was facing me. At that point, his railguns were considerably easier to hit with than my PACs. In general, PACs are fantastically efficient for medium ships and above, but for little ships it's extreeeemely hard to land a shot. If your opponent is moving perpendicular to you, just pointing your guns at the lead target indicator is difficult, let alone hitting them if they are vectoring and rotating at the same time.
please do. the more content the better
if you have one and are wiling to fight then im keen to meet you ingame to see if its possible for that ship to be viable against med ships in PvP, i gotta see this for myself.
A pair of railguns will punch through the shields of any medium ship that isn't an FDL with boosters coming out of its ears. At which point micro gimbal at long range will give you a very high accuracy against modules. If your shields pop vs a railgun ship and they move to 3km, it's time to seriously pay attention to your module health.
I have a DBS for my PvP ship, but Im always down for duels especially against opponents who know what they are doing. Now you may well blow out my modules and cockpit in one go with a well placed PAC salvo, but I'd absolutely be down for a bit of fun. I'll pmsg you my cmdr name, shan't be on tonight but in the next few days quite probably.
a FAS will run a lot of MRP's, you will have a very hard time doing enough damage before that ship kills you. i dont personally think the DPS is high enough. i could see it working with 2 med PA's and 2 super pen torps, or 2 heat seeking missile launchers however
[citation needed]
FDL has weak armour (no military slots), is a big triangle (even at a distance) so will get hit. Fed ships with G5 dirty have respectable closure speed, even if heavy. Rails have high penetration ergo will impact modules to a degree regardless of shields.
And a fighter launched will ruin your day, and make this entire thing a forgone conclusion.

Usually, I just let them interdict me, evade fire, and then low wake out. Most think I don't know what I'm doing, so they'll try again... and again... and again. 
How about getting good at the game and killing them? No....?
May wanna check some of your facts here....
I'll happily tel you my strategy...
First I watched a load of pvp videos on youtube.
Then I bought and outfitted a hybrid FAS and engineered it to close to meta pvp spec.
I then spent several months practicing with PAs and railguns, while trying to stay out of NPC fire and keeping them under mine.
I play in open since then, but I've yet to be griefed, worse luck. Guess a well equipped FAS isn't a time-economical target.
Eventually I'll get around to hunting them, but I still need to 'git gudder'. This isn't me reacting to them, this is me doing my ultimate endgame RP as a white knight enforcer. I'll happily be their content as long as they don't mind being mine. #muahahaha #retributionisfun
