wrong. There are NO neutron stars in the cluster (believe me I've explored the entire cluster). Only 1 star NEAR the cluster (AH Cancri) can be tagged with double neutron boost.
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face, to face
With the martian who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
*makes way back home*
Hey now, I might even buy one of those and I don't even like bobble heads!
There is no legitimate way back Ant, that was the entire point of the suicide exploration mission! We can't tag any systems but we can get the data into EDDB.
hand-holding is frontier support's job. Seems they do 90% hand-holding and 10% bug fixing.
Aw c'mon that's unfair - Support do not code the game. And Support do a fantastic job. This was probably nothing more than a CMDR taking advantage of an overly-helpful Support bod and selling their data.
So much salt.....
The players did a great job getting there and got rewarded. Let them keep it.

I must also point out that this can in no way be interpreted as helping commanders. Most commanders involved are NOT doing this intentionally.
1. They encountered a bug.
2. Fdev INCORRECTLY restored their ship OUTSIDE the cluster.
3. They sold exploration data assuming data from inside the cluster would be lost.
This is unfair to these commanders who will now inevitably be accused of cheating AND to the rest of the commanders on the Distant Stars Expedition who will feel slighted for having this pristine cluster muddied by tags.

Cut it out with the "salt" thing. That's just silly sniping without answering the points being made. And no - whilst it's "brave" of the Distant World explorers to go on a one-way trip, to be managing to sell that data on a supposedly one-way trip just because they got assisted back from their 1-way trip, is completely unearned.

IF the DSE players involved really want to clear their name they will of course be asking FD to reset all data handed in at the time they got back of course and not just that from inside the cluster
1. is fine - they encountered some bug and needed help - that's fine.
Yes, this seems to be the case, but...
This is where it all goes Pete Tong. This data should NOT have been sold. It was supposed to be a 1-way trip. The data was not supposed to have been able to be returned under a ship's own steam.
No. It is unfair to everyone else who plays the game as intended, who went on the Distant Stars Expedition knowing full well it was supposed to be a 1-way trip and were fully prepared to self-destruct.
It's unfair to those CMDR's who DID in fact self-destruct.
No one is accusing the one or two CMDR's who sold their data of cheating - but nevertheless - that is unearned data, and for the reasons cited above it is grossly unfair to those other CMDR's.

And once again, no shame in the the players here. If you go on a one way mission. you go on a one way mission. You dont then ask for god to give you a way out. You made the choice and accept it. But i fault Fdev support just as much as the weak cmdr's who ask for the handouts.
What importance is the achievement if you remove all the consequence and risk?
If FD support is just going to save you then who cares if a bunch of people jumped really far into a star cluster. Whoopty doo. It mattered much more when they were doing it and knew that they were all going to die trying.
It was a single commander who got lucky. Stop trying to invalidate what the whole of the DSE did.
since they allowed it. and promoted on their discord , they are as bad as the guy who did it!
I was the owner of the discord i would ban the guy. anyone that got it's rebuy on the face there should also be about the guy... because for me this derails everything the idea of the expeditions was....

Eh? No! Read my other posts in this thread before you imply that I support the selling of that data! LOL!
