Why would you ever want to avoid an attempted gank? I want more player to player interactions, not fewer.
I guess "avoid" was a poor word to use. Survive is what I mean.
Hahaha toucheBut that's exactly what you have done. Albeit in an arguably good way.
That would explain why you haven't responded to any of my trash talk in your Reapers channel
I think everyones out mining and what-not. That's what my whole squadron is currently doing.
Yep. I hate discord. Won't find me on there alltoo often.That would explain why you haven't responded to any of my trash talk in your Reapers channel
Generally too lazy to chat except the ingame thingy. But not only related to discord, I'm notorious for never answering on whatsapp too.
Propably getting old and strange

Teach the fishes the first 4 engineers to G5, then they are on their own.Alright, I've been putting out some feelers to see if there's any interest in this and there seems to be quite a bit.
I am offering gank evasion training to any players that wish to play in open and would like to learn how to survive getting ganked by other players. The idea here is to allow players to actually practice surviving a gank instead of just watching a video and hoping you remember everything when the time comes.
First of all:
-I am currently only offering this to players on PC (if I can find some gankers on console that are willing to train, it might eventually become an opiton)
-You must be in the bubble or Colonia so we can train with you
-You must have a headset or a way of communicating with us
How this will work is, we will attempt a gank on you (don't worry, no death is necessary until you're ready) while talking you through all the steps on how to survive our attack. We will start with the basics first, submitting to an interdiction and high waking, and then make it increasingly more difficult until you feel like you're ready for the gauntlet. The gauntlet will be a full wing of gankers playing for real, using FSD disrupt missiles and wake scanners while you try to escape.
At this point, you're never gonna convince the entire ganking community to stop ganking so I'm offering a way to survive their attacks and to be able to go about your business without the fear of seeing a rebuy screen. I think this will be a fun way to connect with the community and my hope is that those we train will pass down their knowledge to other players.
If you're here just to talk trash about gankers, that's fine but I will be removing any negative players from the discord that join just to talk trash.
Also, if you are a ganker and wish to become a trainer as well, you're more than welcome to join. However, if you just use this as a way to gank, I'll just ban you from the discord. Also, if you're someone I don't know, I will need to have you to show me that you are capable of surviving a gank yourself to ensure that you're giving other players proper training.

I'm in a Chief. It's not finnished, but I'll keep an eye out for ya
This is a good initiative and I wholeheartedly approve. Experience is one of the finest teachers in Elite.
Well, we're nowhere near the size of our PC counterparts but we do have a presence on PS. Whilst it's fair to say we have asserted our presence when we've seen players working against our faction, we're more than happy to metaphorically get the tea and biscuits out for anyone friendly coming over.

Love this idea. I'm currently about 12,000 Ly out, but when I get "back in town" I'll give this a try. I've been running a smuggler/stealth build and would like to get some more practice with it, and this would be a cool way to do so.
The only thing sadder than shooting fish in a barrel, is trying to convince fish to get into the barrel.
I think I made it pretty clear that we won't be killing any players untit they're ready to take on the gauntlet but ok.
And judging by the overwhelmingly positive response from everyone so far, it looks like a lot of players are into this.
I couldn't find you, so I looked at how to send a friend invite, which was also a no go. Guess I'll have to engineer my scanner. I'm in VR so I can't chat, but I'll try to rig up a microphone. Cya in the dark, watch your six
But what if players feel they can't trust you? Is there any way they could perhaps not sign up, or maybe not contact you & just carry on playing their own way?
That seems like something people could probably do, right?
