Taking the time it took you to post this from your 5min lunch break. Back to work you worm!
Geez Leo it sure looks like mold.
On topic: The slavers probably did something a little more than just what we know. That’s why they got banned from open imho
Kind of great advertising for E
in the magazines as well, because danger!

Oh c'mon now North... do you really think, considering very common new Cmdr questions about how to plot a route, how to change modules, what are fire groups, I paused the game but died, etc. That most new Cmdrs have any comprehension of the bizarre and unique single-shared-galaxy-mode-separation-but-not-really-separated nuances of ED?
Before you answer, I remember when you first joined the forums and started asking questions.
Im not a grass but I heard the secret ingredient is onionhead.
I'm reaching the conclusion that you're taking the <mickey> here.
If you're familiar with cases of modern slavery (actual modern slavery) they often involve people who are bordeline illiterate, IQ in the sub-85 range, often having personality disorders, the kind of people who would qualify to access mental health support workers and generally have difficulty operating in society. Those are the people I was referring to and they are the people that this 'poor HELPLESS noob' paradigm could reasonably refer to. I very much doubt that many of them spend their spare time playing Elite Dangerous and browsing Polygon. They spend their time living in caravans crying.
Do you or do you not agree that it is reasonable to assume someone who has already bought, downloaded, set up and launched a complicated computer game has the necessary smarts to then ask a question on google or the game's forum? That's the benchmark you need to be concerned with. If yes, they are not in any way helpless in the way that the people I am describing above are. What they are is what most people would colloquialy refer to as 'a bit thick'. Or lazy. Or both. They are not in any way 'helpless' though, any more than you or I would be in the same situation.

Ignorance doesn't excuse new players.
Fact is there was creative use of game mechanics. Carebears gonna cry. They got shutdown.
Real shame, as per usual.
There are in-game repercussions for assault (bounty*) and murder (bounty* and notoriety), hence they are normal gameplay elements. There is no in-game repercussion for the intentional abduction (by confidence trick) and abuse of other commanders using one or more fleet carriers. Hence doing so is not intended gameplay and thus governed by out-of-game rules (the code of conduct).
*) Whether they are effective deterrents is a different topic to explore
I think the Abducted have been schooled now lol
Frontier should’ve transferred all the slavers credits/ships to the n00bs it happened to. Plus their FCs blow up.
You must be great at parties.
This has nothing to do with the new-way-fdev-embarassed-themselves-yet-again at hand, this is required by the law:
Publish an annual modern slavery statement
Information to help you identify if your organisation needs to publish a modern slavery statement.
Yeah about that. Discord smacked them quite fast, and I suspect it was rather as @Linnunrata wrote, that it was a modern equivalent of an ape cage, throwing feces and n-words left and right. 4chan / 8chan / whatever-chan "humour". If it was really , Discord would shut them down. May I remind you that Discord literally shut down the /r/wallstreetbets discord for a while out of fear of the same allegations of ONE GUY? And then backtracked? So did the scummy polygon in one of their "updates"...
Well it is not unreasonable to assume that a fleet carrier can jump. It is unreasonable to assume that a space station can jump, but Jaques did ;-) Whether they are AI or player controlled, doesn't really matter. From a player perspective he is docking on a large ship that can jump any minute. The phrase "fleet carrier" literally tells you that.
I'm a riot.

Shhh!
Dont mention me trying to point out to the entire community that the damage for huge multicannons is wrongly displayed
True but I don't see it as a game developer's job to ensure that all of the 2m+ accounts they sold plus the reported 8m they gave away via Epic Games are in the hands of people who have an absolutely basic level of competence when it comes to using the internet. I think it's entirely reasonable to infer that level of competence by the simple fact that a player has already been able to perform steps that are far more complicated than asking a question in a web forum or via a google search just to get to that point. For me, you're not talking about incompetence there, you're talking negligence. The problem is not in any way a lack of ability.
This might be a shock but I too knew the square root of frak all about the game when I started playing it. Oddly enough the same was true with most other games I started playing for the fist time, yet somehow using the ability to read and formulate simple questions in my mother tongue I was able to navigate this hellishly difficult landscape. I never realised what I was doing was so special within my cohort of fellow gamers.
Good for the game metas, But apparently there was some abuse on the discord and in PG
Using a neutron star is intended gameplay and it can strand you by confidence trick that you can go back while you cannot. The repercussions are exactly the same as for these poor, poor children. Ban Frontier.
Shush, i'm a carebear and I frown at FD for banning them "slavers"
