I have ticketed something that I am not sure of, just in case it was a glitch that happened while I was in the options screen and I got distracted.
See what I did was lose an Anaconda, about 150mill, a 2mill tarted viper and a 50 mill tarted Clipper, as well as 29 million in credits. I also lost Warrant Officer, allied status with Federation and Baron, allied status with Empire. Assorted unclaimed bounties went into the clear save trashcan as well as a number of independent faction allied status'.
I say clear save trashcan because while I was distracted I could have inadvertently selected and then accepted a clear save, or the program, mouse or something could have glitched and the menu could have scrolled down while I wasn't concentrating fully.
This happened six days back and I took a whole 72 hours off. My partner and I went over to the west coast of Wales for the day from where we live in Cheshire. It was blowing a 7-8 gale and was freezing cold.
At Fairbourne near Barmouth on the coast we found a delightful narrow gauge steam train that was just about managing to hold onto the tracks for a last run. We boarded and took the run, got a little video and some stills of the windswept day.
Returning home after we warmed up we watched Bones on Sky catchup for the evening and went to bed.
Three days ago I bit the bullet and thought if FD don't come up trumps and perhaps roll back for me then I either quit the game or I jump back on the bike and pedal like mad. I chose the latter.
The one bit of luck I have is that being a backer I have the freagle and a trader Cobra. I am not bad at trading and bounty hunting NPC's. So I sold the freagle and financed the Cobra as trader and bounty hunter.
I am now the proud owner of a tarted 700k Cobra and a Lakon6 plus 1/2 mil credits, and am a knight with the Empire but still neutral, and I am allied and friendly with about 4 minor Empire factions.
I put this post out there as I am constantly seeing negativity on the forums and I wanted to balance it a bit.
IF you wish to comment here then please do. But please don't post if all you want to do is flay FD, make your own post for that.
The only slight grump I have and would suggest how to avoid this situation, is that if a player does press the Clear Save, a warning box could come up with instructions that if you wish to operate a Clear save then please type D.E.L.E.T.E in the box and select yes.
