So, apparently im a Hacker now. Seems to become a common excuse.

[Einar Donarsson]

Did some kind of Trading in Orerve for the Community Goal. Then someone with a 11 Mil Bounty interdicted me with a Conda and a quadrillion Plasmas, i stayed and fought. He missed quite a lot of his shots tho before i got the message: "your shields are hacked"

I got a message like this before when someone else interdicted me a week ago in a Vette. Is this a common excuse now? I mean, i fly a cutter max engineered. Do you expect me do die in 10 seconds just because you got a C8 PD?

Ill gladly open a Support ticket to get confirmation for you that i dont run anything that could alter any shipstats but for the Gods Sake, get yourself some Honor.

I once saw words. I too was outraged.

Alas OP, you broke the cardinal rule for these types of encounters - you fought back. You should know by now that someone with that size bounty and who is that confident in his/her/it's own abilities to use only plasmas fully expect anyone who he interdicts to immediately explode. But no, you had to not only fight back but maybe (surmising here) probably showed more combat skill than the attacker, and hence the fragile ego that surrounds him/her/it was shattered into a billion Arxs.

You see people. This is what happens when you build your ship properly. You get to be the one extracting the salt.

Outraged? More like dissapointed. No idea where you read rage in my post good Sir.

It was delicious. Just didnt like the ghost pepper in my salt.

As the recipient of the fire you are not able to determine if the shots hit or not, due to the inherent tenth of a second lag even for good connections. It;s particularly noticeable when someone fires a beam at you, and it appears to be going quite obviously off to the side yet your shields will show the pulsing effect showing you are being hit.

Whether or not a shot hits is determined by the shooter, the damage done is determined by the recipient. When the shooter's game client registers a hit, it asks the recipient ship what its current stats are (pips, resistances, etc), calculates the appropriate damage and the recipient ship applies it.

As for the rest, I dunno, salt farmed? If you're not cheating who cares what poo tier gankers say?

Another milestone of the powercreep cycle. People cannot tell the difference between legit and intended gameplay anymore.

Nice. I've only been a "" and a "NOOP" recently.

 

[Wimmer]

Some of them are maxed in hypocrisy. When they blow your ship in 10 seconds they are proud to give you priceless advice: 'git gud' or 'don't fly in open unprepaired', but when they can't blow your ship in 10 seconds they call you a cheater.

NOOP?

 

[S3B4ST13N]

NOOP?

Not Only Open Player
Derogatory term indicating that they frequently switch modes.

 

[pzykozomatik]

NOOP?

NOOP.

 

[Rubbernuke]

Ah, I see.Thanks.

 

[Factabulous]

Seems as expected - they can't annoy you by killing you so they try to annoy you be calling 'cheat'. Throw some NOOPs and L2Ps at them to cheer them up

The protocol in this case that you stop after submitted interdiction, and immediately turn off your shield generator. You missed this, and aggravating circumstance you shot back. You maded this player upset. Scandal! I hope you learn from it.

I just wanted to "offer some Gameplay" back.

Funny thing is, while I won't deny I play in all modes depending on location/mood and will switch to Solo for certain situations, it just wasn't the case in that instance. I guess they were just upset they couldn't touch my trade Cutter in their slow Corvette during several consecutive interdictions I submitted to. At one point I just got annoyed and went to the other CG system for delivery instead. It also didn't help that I came back in my Courier afterwards to return the favour...

Block him.
