Opinions on combat logging

Well you do seem super cool and all, but I'm not seeing how describing your awesomeness is a response to what I wrote.
likewise

You can actually, they just made the report categories more generic in nature.

I would use the "other" category if I had a complaint in that regard.
explain why they had to delete the category?

Interesting that you completely failed to address the 15 seconds of complete inactivity where you failed to destroy your target. If you can't finish off an inferior, fleeing target during a full 15 seconds of inactivity then that is really something FD can't help you with.
Actually that's the thing, I can destroy traders easily. Within 15 seconds. Fully outfitted combat A grade Anacondas that want to (((combat))) log at a CG? No chance. You wouldn't be able to after one hundred years.
 
Probably for the same fundamental reason griefing was removed as a category - excessive demonization of it in the forums and probably too many false reports.
Therefore the false reports would still be an issue under other

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
 
I report apparently intentional disconnections under 'hacking' and malicious abuse of the menu log off under 'harassment'.

i just explode them. by the time I send out the first "halt, I'm scanning your cargo hold" they've already FD approved menu logged(TM)

honestly the satisfaction of either 1 hitting their shield generators with loltorpedoes or exploding them before they can cheat ahh it makes the game worth playing
 
It's funny. I've played since release, and I have never come across any reason to report anybody. Not once. I flew with a PvP oriented player group, in open, for about a year too. Nothing...

Livestream piracy at the CG for 2 hours and post it.

Oh wait... you think "menu logging" is ok because FD say it is so you wouldn't have a reason to report anyone....

now it all makes sense

Yeah, I don't soil myself over stuffs like a game. I have a bunch of other stuffs to really concern myself over. Elite is for happy time.

So does everyone else here.

That doesn't excuse poor design decisions.

Continue to combat log, and even enable combat logging until every PVP player quits and all you're left with is the few PVE players that dwindle and dwindle and dwindle because every. single. update. is a 12-72 hour grind fest for negligible upgrades.

And if they're good upgrades, well, look at the AX weapons. Nerfed into the ground in what was it, a week? Two weeks?

A game's community and fanbase should be their biggest critics. Not Yes-men.

Sorry but this game hasn't got 10 years in it.

Personally, I don't see PvP as the foundation of E|D. I would bet on E|D being fine if the portion of the player base who focus on PvP were to migrate away. Depicting the PvE players as the 'few' is particularly delusional.

Yep... Tell me that in 4 years time.
 
Very distasteful. Goodbye FD. Don't really give a ToSS about this product anymore. :)

Please delete my account forum admins. I'm out!
Don't worry they'll soon delete PVP from the game since nobody actually plays it anyway, they'll all griefers and trolls.
 
Therefore the false reports would still be an issue under other
There reporting categories I see as being a form of priority, those things that are unequivocal and less subjective get priority over things that require analysis or more subjective assessment.

The current reporting categories (for the PC at this time are):-
  • Spamming
  • Obscene
  • Abusive
  • Criminal
  • Hacking
  • Other

Essentially Combat Logging and Griefing would only be legitimately reportable under the "Other" category. The more specific categories would notionally be provable based on single reports and a simple inspection of available logs.
 
I must seem like an open book to you.
Nah I've just realised that you'll defend ED to the death and justify it with something...

You're not as bad as that rlsm guy who literally weaves lies constantly to justify every facet of FD's laziness. But your indifference and apathy is pretty irritating to be frank.

I'd be surprised if you told me you weren't clinically depressed. Drawing some parallels.

pls no report.
