No, Jameson's Cobra.Virginity?
Do not equate the loss of some silly low amount of infinitely available and easily acquirable credits and a bit of time to online bullying that carries over into real life. That's more ridiculous than getting upset about being blown up in this game. Adjust your priorities in what gets you emotional.
Its a game. Just like any other kind of game. If someone acts like a jack#$% others won't like it. Its kinda how humans are.
Go to a basketball game and start acting like a complete idiot. See how long that lasts.
Difference is in a basketball game you'd get kicked out or get your head split open for acting like a bum-bum, in ED Open apparently it's encouraged nowadays.
Well I can't speak for anyone else but I try to avoid areas with a higher chance of me getting mugged walking down the street, I dislike gambling because I hate the thought of losing my money, and I invest as wisely as I can for the same reason.Sometimes, when I read threads like this, I wonder how some people survive in real world if they get knocked out of their shoes for blown pixels in video-game (and same game gives them options for not to get blown from other player)![]()
Poor decisions and planning as in playing in Open? Because I agree. Play in Solo or a private group instead. It's a poor decision to play in Open and subject yourself to gankers and griefers, especially the "grown up" ones that say things like "If someone blows you up in this game for any reason, it's because you allowed it. The only person you should be mad at when that happens is yourself if you get mad at all."These threads and the people who start them are the problem with this game. Players who expect their poor decisions and planning and/or crap skill to be catered to rather than taking responsibility for their own choices that led to where they're at in the game and learning/adapting to achieve their goals using what they have at their disposal. Not the actions of other players (unless they're cheating).
you can play in open in all but maybe 10 systems and never have a problem while retaining any benefit from random interactions with other players that may exist. You can play in open in like 99.99% of all the systems in the game and never interact with another human. You can also just add players to your ignore list who have randomly attacked you ...there's not a huge supply who "bad players" compared to the overall population of the subset that will ever instance with you. you can also just drop to solo in the 10 or so systems where known "bad players" hang out. you know, like someone with a brain that knows they wont be able to deal with such players. There's plenty of options available that offer a whole range of compromises.Poor decisions and planning as in playing in Open? Because I agree. Play in Solo or a private group instead.

In this game, there's literally thousands of effectively identical systems to play basketball in. There's an infinite number of balls. There's a bunch of ways to eliminate unwanted players from your game requiring no effort or cooperation from the party in question.
you only play games where everything that happens to you are things you like and wanted to happen?I repeat:
Its a game. Just like any other kind of game. If someone acts like a jack#$% others won't like it. Its kinda how humans are.
Ummm....Do not equate the loss of some silly low amount of infinitely available and easily acquirable credits and a bit of time to online bullying that carries over into real life.

With this week's CG being data gathering at Jameson's it's been a Mecha for 'those' type of players this week. As a rule, never visit ANY site, engineer, well known POI, megaship or ruin in Open unless you are looking for trouble. Which kind of sucks the point of Open completely out of it really!Just happened as I was searching for Jamiesons Wreckage.
Out of nowhere, no warning just blasted out of the sky. I had no cargo, no data.
Why are some players still cretins in this game? I've only started playing after some time away from it and it was never like this back then.
One idiot xbox player ruined it for me tbh. Every other commander I've met has been brilliant in that they communicate etc. I hope that turd bucket get spaced by someone equally stupid.
I don't understand why these gankers are allowed to continue in the game. The in-game mechanisms to prevent this behaviour clearly don't work, and their actions are detrimental to all other players. At this point they should be issued a warning and, if they continue, have their accounts suspended..
