New policy on player kills in private groups?

I'm all for killing in private groups. If you can't be bothered to properly vet your invites and invite a ganker, it's your own fault (and not counting the less than 1% of gankers who would buy a second account and engineer a murder ship of their choice, nothing you can do there but it's so minor an issue.).

Gank the night away.

What does this process of vetting entail exactly? Is there some repository of Cmdr's PG curators can look at it?
"Search: Steve" .. "10 results" .. "Click SteveThePirate" .. "SteveThePirate is a member of SDC and known griefer."

Not trying to be funny (ok, a little) - but really curious has to how one would vet someone.

You forgot to tell us how you're going to vet 11,000 players. :)

That's pretty hardcore. It's going to take awhile.

Everyone has to submit
- a written resume about his CMDR, in triplicate
- complete gapless logs confirming no murder/PvP ever committed
- a written agreement to never attack anyone in PG, signed in blood
- Coriolis builds of all ships, confirming they have no weapons
- their FD API Login

:D

Ah, the old "If someone finds my actions objectionable, then it's their fault" trick. They're all carebears, lazy, sjws, sensitive, whatever other term can be invented. Objecting to your actions is a shameful act, and taking pride in going out of your way to negatively impact others is a point of pride.

All of these things have to be true, because if they're not, then you'll have to admit that you're the one responsible for nobody wanting you around.

Wouldn't a pinky swear be more time efficient?

Well, if you send your severed pinky to the PG organizer as a sign of loyalty, then... yeah, that'd work. Still a bit messy and not very hygienic for the PG owner... Plus it limits the number of PGs one can join to two...

But then there's the problem of GDPR in Europe... like, where do you send the pinky to? So the address needs to be disclosed. And the postal service might complain. Hmm, on reflection, this might be just as problematic...

Maybe it's just me..

Crash into a planet = My Fault
Get Ganked in PG = Gankers fault; Reimbursement.. Tentative
Get killed by obvious bug = Hope support are nice to me
Get killed by Neutron star = My Fault
Get killed by NPC = my fault
Get killed in Open = my fault
yada yada

In the few times I have contacted support, all have been a bug and support have always been kind to me. I respect those chaps hugely.

Basically what I'm saying here is, if you don't want pvp even if its not allowed in the PG, take a little responsibility. I, not for a second assumed blindly that the organiser of DW2 could or indeed would, vet every player who joined. How could they be expected to? I'm just happy they organised event as best they could. The rest is for me to watch my back.

If I'm in Fleetcomm and see another player. I'll check that player out, if it looks like a PvP ship, I'm changign modes. Simple and effective.

And no way of telling whether it's a drunkard homeless stand in pinky someone nicked. Like that old joke; I wanted to donate a kidney, but of course they wanted to know where I got it from.

I could develop a pinky swear app.

If by “vetting them”, you mean getting them spayed; thats a bit overkill. Besides some haven’t had theirs ‘drop’ yet.
