A great chat tho. I play solo but do enjoy playing with others in group. Killing Thargs, exploring, cg's, this , that and the other.

Cool dude you keep playing in solo, by yourself and I'll keep enjoying open with everyone. Glad to know that players like me got in your head so much that you only play in solo now, where salty players belong...

What are solo/PG players even doing in this part of the forums?
Interesting...

Again. I cannot be content if I am not content

And just to spite you, I'm switching to PG with intentions of never coming back to open again.

I don't care if you hide in solo/PG.

Exactly what I was thinking.

All you've proved by this post is that I have already won. I'm in your head and you won't play in open because of me.

Could you explain this comment? You have won when someone won’t play in open because of you? So that is the goal of your actions in the game?

It's pretty self explanatory. Why do I need to explain myself? You take the game so seriously, and are so distraught by losing a little fake money that you hide in solo because of people like me. If you think that's supposed to make me feel bad, it doesn't.

You don't need to worry about my goals, I'm gonna play the game however I damn well please and all you need to concern yourself with is making sure I don't blow you up. If you can't handle that or have a nasty, salty attitude then go hide in solo.

What on earth are you rambling on about? I play in open and just giggle when I run into pathetic people like you. Which is rare, because most people are pretty decent. I just found your explanation odd so I asked if you could clarify it. Basically you get satisfaction from bullying people. I get that. Just rare to see people admit it. Thanks and happy holidays.

Heh, what an awesome reply, rep

These types of players think they are not bullies but it so clear from language and behaviour that the only way to describe them is as "bullies". Just got to wait for the "it's just pixels" inevitable retort!

o7. There exists, of course, the possibility that he’s attacking defenceless newbies with weak ships and no PvP skills simply because he’s trying to pick on someone his own size. I don’t think it would be fair to discount that possibility.

Bully in a videogame to salty players like you, yep, absolutely. Not ashamed whatsoever. You keep hiding in solo.
You all can call me whatever nasty name you want, but the truth of the matter is that I'm having fun with the game and you're hiding in solo from people like me : (
Sucks for you, not me.

I've stated pretty clearly, multiple times that I hunt newb killers but you just keep making up whatever story makes you feel good. o7

So why are the non-pvp players commenting in this thread again?

(That's rhetorical, btw...)

No one needs an "excuse" to blow up anyone.
That's nonsense.

That's why they give us interdictors and PAs to play with.

Maybe some folks are thinking of some other game?

I think its hilarious that Leper Messiah resurrected this dead thread just to attempt to call me out on something and only succeeded in making a fool of themselves.

As far as I can see, there's only one fool in this.

I really love the choice of the word "pathetic".

Some etymology:

From Middle French pathétique, from Latin patheticus, from Ancient Greek παθητικός (pathētikós, “subject to feeling, capable of feeling, impassioned”), from παθητός (pathētós, “one who has suffered, subject to suffering”), from πάσχω (páskhō, “to suffer”).

Hmm, I know who that sounds like, and it's not the griefers/gankers/PVPers!

So instead of trying to get better at the game and starting squadrons to try to stop players like me or rescue players that I gank, they come to the internet to call me names and try to shame me or try to make false assumptions about how I play the game and I'm the fool? Cool story bro

Go for it. All of these threads are stupid and only serve to try to shame griefers. Not sure why you let these threads go on anyways.

Unless you where joined up with an opposing Superpower, the only real reason is that they are bored children just trying to make somebody else's life (whether IRL or not) as bad as thier own.
And there should be a place to Name & Shame trolling griefers. Whether or not they(or FD)like it.
