Both statements are legally wrong. I dont have the time or the crayons to explain it
We are having fun playing the way we want within the framework of the game rules and mechanics and for sure, not the way you want us to play.
We have been, without a doubt, way more helpful towards the community than you could ever be.
Finally, the approach you wrote are not mutually exclusive, things are not only black or white nor as restricted as you wish they were.
git gud
Almost any PvP player killer you would care to name (I'm sure there are a few exceptions, but not many) would be more than happy to give advice to anyone who cared to ask for it ingame. That's just a fact, and to suggest otherwise is either ignorant, or in your case disingenuous. Your statement rests on the premise that "being destroyed" is somehow permanent and cannot be learned from, as opposed to a minor inconvenience and that communications result post rebuy screen with the less experienced player asking questions and being fully informed in a detailed manner on everything they could do to improve their ship outfitting and flying capabilities. If learning/teaching doesn't take place, it's because the "victim" takes the most negative, poor sportsmanship view of the encounter and either sulks off to a different mode, hurls a bunch of insults, or both.
You know all this, of course, and you work diligently to advise an attitude of the latter outcome as much as you possibly can, which is why I say you're being disingenuous by portraying it otherwise.
well played!i'll second phisto again here:
with the big caveat (we all already know) there is a fine line ...
dunno, sometimes i dream of a world were we can blow each other to bits and disagree and still be nice.
Haha, well, that is a different thing. If someone decides being annoying is the right thing to do, fine. But please dont complain about people considering you annoying. Just accept that as amany consequence of your own action.
When people get called hostage takers, sexual abusers, psychopaths, and other fun things over actions taken because of and in a computer game about flying space ships in an imaginary dystopian future it's a long road back to anything resembling nice.
Work on ending that and perhaps we'll see improvement.
Or when you're the Continential Army shooting Redcoats from behind a tree - but I digress.
You don't know me very well, do you!
To return to the topic of the thread... How is the campaign going? Lots of ships destroyed using dragmunition yet?
As a reminder, my post.
And mind, my post did not speak of PvE or PvP. The sentiment holds true in general.
So, in future, I am not you/Ozric/Ziggy/whoever. I am Ziggy. I will and am quite capable of speaking for myself. No one has and no one does speak for me. If you have an issue with what I post, address what I post. And only blame me for what I post.
Thank you.
"You people"
It's also amusing how you don't realise Aark is blaming "us people" for all those things. And you chiming in is sublime irony.
There's 1 person to blame, the one making death threats or similar unsavoury behaviour. Just because I happen to enjoy the same sort of gameplay, doesn't make me responsible for the actions of others who also enjoy that kind of gameplay.
Here endeth the lesson
I do indeed have a different set of values. My values tell me not to attribute guilt by association.

I've been wondering the same.
Should all the victims of people playing a video game with them make their own thread begging Frontier for relief in the form of a hotfix, or should we expect the flooding of anguish here?
Knowing SDC they'll create alt accounts to post those kind of threads to claim success.
No, strike that. Knowing SDC they never thought of that, and I just gave them that idea.
Me and my big mouth
wanders over to Reddit
Ooo, this looks promising. He's not even SDC.

Hmm. With just the first few comments it seems our fellow Pilots Federation members that frequent Reddit understand the need to reverse Drag Munitions very much. In fact, I'm seeing comments along the line of, "Hey, harsh methods but you've got a point here."
And does it apply this effect 100% of the time? If so, than perhaps it would be better to have a lower percentage chance of applying the effect, while still keeping the change to the effect.
Just fielding some thoughts before saying “throw out the bath water, baby, tub, burn down the house, change your identity and move to a foreign country.”
I don't fault him for it at all but a lot of Ziggy's posts are just tossing rhetorical bombs to get a reaction.
Not that I'd ever do such a thing...?
See, that is not a wailing mass of victims bemoaning their fate, that is a dude showing himself griefing others. That is the point: the only 'noise' about these 'campaigns' are self-celebratory posts from the attackers.
Meanwhile the unwashed masses are deafening silent about yet another wildly succesful ganking campaign.
Wait for it. It'll come. Keep hitting hard enough and long enough and the posts will start.
Source: long experience in matters such as this.
EDIT: Some of the OP's victims comment in that thread. One poor lad lost an Anaconda full of Void Opals.
The problem with such faux-philosophies is that it sounds nice but goes nowhere fast. If you think 'technically speaking griefing is objectively within the rules, and those facts dont care about your feelings!' is solid reasoning, than you should likewise concede that 'saying I like griefers less than herpes is also objectively allowed, and that fact doesnt care about your feelies.'
Thats the problem with such Cartman philosophies. "I do what I want!" doesnt really go well with the "Stop hurting my feelings, you rude people!". Either do what you want, grow a spine and deal with people being rude in return, or be considerate of others.
Yawn. Yet another salt mining attempt.
