Because already you're proving my point by tarring me with the same brush, because like a few people I'm annoyed at the god modding and incorrect calls for their heads under the EULA. It seems either that people are 100% with you, or against you and there can be no shades of grey.
Right, lets see if we can do this.
The FD meddling was a poor solution to the situation. The effort put into the lockdown was brushed aside, which is not done.
Under the current rules, and by my understanding of the situation, there's no reason for anyone to be banned for breaking any sort of agreement. This would only occur when there was a second attempt. Then it would be harassment.
I think we both agree on this.
Now for the flammable parts.
Going into a private group that has a well known PvE policy, and knowing breaking that is a wiener move.
Attempting to justify the action because those who did were 'trying to prove a point' is a poor excuse. Speculation: it probably occurred out of frustration, which is understandable and could be rectified by: yeah, stupid move on our part, sorry for that. Instead we get: it had no consequences, so why not? I'm not sure that's out of pride, because of a defensive posture or actual sentiment. Since I don't know, I have to go with what's written and assume actual sentiment. But I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
Lastly, I believe that action did more harm than good. Without it, we'd have a pretty united player base who would be able to give a clear message about the handling of the CG, which Frontier perhaps could have drawn conclusions from. Instead, its the elephant in the room (placed there by the OP, if it hadn't it could have been barred from the thread for being off topic)
So ... I don't think we're 100% diametrically opposed (always wanted to say that) but I don't think we agree 100% either.
Important part: without agreeing or disagreeing with me, do my sentiments make sense to you? Asking, because without understanding discussion cannot be had. And plenty of evidence for that sentiment in this thread I feel
