In light of the recent Galnet story about a ship being stolen from a starport, I was thinking that this may be an opportunity for FD to implement an "I am not a Robot" check (as found on many websites) to try to limit some of the 'cheating'.

Please define "most people".Call me Captain Obvious, but it feels like the standard PR response given by FD isn't sitting well with most people.
No one needs to be banned. Just put all the cheaters in the same instance forever.

and how are you gonna keep innocent people from being shadowbanned? a person needs to know that a ban is on them so that they can fight it if they are innocent. nothing will kill this game faster than to start banning innocent players."shadow ban"
It already exists. You are stuck in solo and loose access to the BGS aka "shadow ban". For me I gladly sign up for this if I had access to cheats and I'm not alone.

yup this is exactly what we need to be worried aboutYou mean like this?
I have stopped playing Elite till Frontier do something about this and tell us the numbers and whats been done.
Im too old and have been through this too many times to be bothered to play a game that seems to be doing nothing about cheats and exploiters.
I really love this suggestion, also could we have the iridescent paint job blink?I couldn't agree more Ryan. However I think that FDev could introduce another punishment.
- First offense: 3-day ban to OPEN. All ships' paintwork defaulted to iridescent pink, all modules locked at E rating and all engineering affects removed.
- Second offense: 1-month ban to OPEN. All ships' paintwork defaulted to iridescent pink, all modules locked at E rating and all engineering affects removed. Permanent 'decal of shame' on front of ship.
- Third offense: Permaban. Go and play another game; 3 strikes and you're out.
can we not have punishment be getting bright pink paint job because then I will want to be punishedI really love this suggestion, also could we have the iridescent paint job blink?
So let me get this right: If I am in solo
1. I can not affect the BGS
2. So if 1 is valid why can't I use cheats? It is essentially single player mode.
Gime the cheats noowwwwww
Still can't quite get over the absurdity of it all. Last time FD announced they had detected cheating and mass-punished people the entirety of SDC was involved. And they were super outraged their cheated advantages were taken away from them, loudly protesting how unfair it was they were punished for their cheating. And now they are upset others aren't punished enough? Don't get me wrong, I am all for punishing cheaters, but this never-ending hypocrisy is tiresome.
I think FDev should find every single cheater, gather them in a large square, boil them in lava and execute their families with dragon fire while reciting Kant's Imperative, before shooting their remains into space using a large cannon. That'll teach them!
(It's a game, for crying out loud).
