Forgive me but your sweeping generalisation is showing.
At the time of posting THIS was the lowest post...what further information was I supposed to infer from this comment?
That's what I said. Note that I would feel bad for acting that way (in fact I would not act that way) against someone who demonstrated actual signs of consciousness, or at least attacked with a game-related purpose.
Multipurpose as in not-PvP specialised, which in ED actual PvP state means "vastly underpowered cow in a corridor". And yes, an anaconda rebuy is big money if you don't have much playtime available.
Don't struggle, I'll help: Esc, then "Save and exit to main menu". There

I have neither the time nor the enthusiasm to explain 'play' to someone showing either a lack.of intellect or imagination. You are in an Open space in a dark universe (death for parking offenses, slavery, for 200cr fines). Some people fit in this better than those who can't see that and expect Elite Space to resemble the high street of a well to do English Village circa 1950.
Have neither the time and enthusiasm...or merely haven't the ability? I mean here's your opportunity to explain to ALL these foolish carebears, menu-loggers, PVE/Solo Players WHY attacking CMDRs for no "in-game" reason is a valid playstyle...SURELY that's just TOO good an opportunity to pass up...particularly for someone that allegedly "relishes" confrontation....
Are there any Historical or Geographic locales were random unannounced Murder of individuals for no racial/political/financial/territorial/religious motive..without a pre-exsisting personal relationship with no warning i8s/was prevalent? Again...feel free to direct us to examples...
Amused as I am by your attempts at intellectual superiority, i will have limit myself to again pointing out that the setting of Elite is a dark universe where life is cheap and some players accept that and become part of that darkness. Some stay in Open and don't, of course, which is equally valid. The only invalid choice is, which seems to be yours, that all players should ignore this dark setting and treat it as if it was the present day world with its attendant mores and ethics.
I don't need to give you the example you requested because it's irrelevant. It's a fictional setting. It doesn't need to be like an extant present day culture.

Again, I’m getting lots of tips and tricks for surviving in open with an engineered ship. The fact is I was engineering the ship. As in it wasn’t Engineered yet. So again it seems like the criteria for surviving open is maximally optimizes engineered ship or you’re toast. Thanks horizons.
Engineering bases are favorite haunts for emergent content delivery boys. Do yourself a favor and pretend they're CGs.
I’m old enough to not get upset when someone blows up a digital spaceship that Wasn’t purchased in an online Kickstarter campaign.
It seems VERY strange that this "fictional culture" which seems oh so very similar in every way...politically, economically, morally, legally to the present day has evolved this one cultural wrinkle...where a significant proportion of Pilots are prepared to risk life and million credit ships on random violent interactions with no financial/political/influence based benefits...
Surely if SUCH a thing were likely there'd be at least one current or historical example you can think of....hey you know what...if thats too difficult...feel free to forgo the historical analogies...if that's a dry well for you and merely layout an entirely fictional but internally consistent narrative for how that might happen...
If you emergency drop you leave a beacon and have a 1 minute cool down, no?
Alas, I haven't got the time to explain 'fiction' to someone who is either trolling or who is sincerely stupid.
I dont know where you live, but I dont get executed if I take too long to park my car, nor do I earn 1000 tons of pure gold every hour by being a lorry driver. Your reality sounds cool though!
You missed my point. The reference to the class 5 shield was merely pointing out that you hadn’t read my OP...
For someone with such LIMITED time...you seem to have an awful lot of opportunity to explain why you CAN'T offer a coherent argument FOR RANDOM, MOTIVELESS, BENEFIT-FREE, UNANNOUNCED attacks on Players specifically...
Shall the rest of us thankfully not subject to such pressing deadlines on a Sunday evening, merely assume you can't ?
