Never promoted disrupting the game in a way that it would break the TOS, disrupting the galaxy with legitimate gameplay mechanics is what we do, breaking the game how? server are still working, never promoted or said breaking the forum rules was okay, insults i guess it's also okay to insult me on my background. Maybe we should ban you? cry me a river, you more salty than the Wieliczka Salt Mine.

Do you have links to these polls? I'd be interested to see the playstyle representations, number of voters, etc.
Good post. People like being consumers? Smacks of that Burroughs quote and wanting junk. And wanting to crawl over broken glass for junk. Know of it?
I used to work in the media and before that, politics. Enough said. I can smell the . I don't blame FD for saying what they have to say. But I don't have to like it
I mean this is the most recent. but its been a recurring poll over months that has shown no change.

Enjoy your fifteen minutes of fame. I hope it ends soon.
If you have the power to ban me please do so.
You can go as far back as when FD accidentally dumped 5 Bil cr into some accounts. There are tons of examples of FD destroying their own credibility through poor choices. Too numerous to document.
Combat logging? The punishment was to be shadow banning.
It's been obvious that they had no intention of actually doing anything long ago. The assumption was that there are just too many instances to police and enforce it. OP simply confirms what most long time players had already taken to be obvious.
Bottom Line: FD just considers "Shadow Ban" to be the same thing as OPEN mode.
That's why more and more players wake up after a bit and move to a large PG, and why it makes more and more sense for FD to just implement a PvE mode, which would alleviate the need for Mobius to have to admin such a large PG with no real tools to do so on that scale.
Apologies if any of this makes sense to anyone else.
Incoming expected as always...
Enjoy

Minnie FW corp? Need to speak Russian for that.
Also I seem to recall drones got slapped with the nerf bat not too long ago.

I didn't make an assumption on your background actually. I might have got your location wrong. I apologise for saying you were 'getting stoned' - I did not mean it as an insult at all. It was a fairly flippant remark. But your writing is rather erratic this evening. I thought you didn't care. Maybe you're faking outrage. Maybe not.
I'll say again - it's hard taking someone seriously when they take nothing seriously. Anyway, you're on ignore now, so fly safe Commander.

Dear FD,
You really need to be professional and rein this in. It's an embarrassment for both you, as a company, and us as a community.
Close this cesspool thread, post an official statement (closed to comments) and update when and if you (FD) actually get done with whatever it is you're going or not going to do.
Someone at FD needs to get out in front of this and do some damage control. Right after you fire whoever let these CL tickets "slip". IMO, FD seems just slightly more professional than the people that orchestrated this debacle to start with, and that's just sloppy, unprofessional and unacceptable.
If by some miracle DB reads this I sure hope some heads role because as a player I'm embarrassed and as the head of a company I sure as hell would be.
[edit] Furthermore I'd say DB himself needs to address this as the people he's hired to do so have failed miserably. Stop the bleeding FD, right now you look like complete amateurs. Both in terms of the sloppy unacceptable handling of the CL issue and the failure to handle the mess you let happen after the fact. Some poison should not be left to run it's course.

Not to mention Frontier's own poll about ship tranfers where people voted to support a PVE roleplay element of waiting for your ship and paying a lot to move it over an instant gratification gameplay element of low cost instant ship transfers.

Well, the loggers couldn't have done it without you to inspire them, Sundae! High-five all round!
Now the line has become that there was no intention to disrupt the game, allow me to draw attention to three posts from earlier in this thread:
From before this was made public, their intention was to disrupt an essential online service Frontier provides to customers. Not to mention encourage combat logging.

It really was a team effort, like a well oiled machine working in reciprocation. Just glad we can continue to serve this wonderful community!

IS there a link by which he can check these people's profiles to decide whether they're worthy of voting or being listened to? That seems to be the level we're working at here

No, i was very clear in my statement, i said the goal was to bring attention to the flaws in how they enforce their policies and how they take actions against cheaters (combat loggers), no where does it says our goal was to disrupt game services such as the customer support ticket system. Those two comments are two different context. I simply said this could : result in an increase in tickets or combat loggers, i am simply making an observation, i could be very wrong. For all we know, this could be very well be the other way around, they will do nothing and simply turn a blind eye on the problem. At this point, i have zero faith in their abilities to do anything in regards to combat loggers.
I'm really just here for the party to be honest.
