PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGE: Hostile CMDR in Nespeleve!

courperationX · May 16, 2016

CMDR [REDACTED] in Federal Assault Ship with companion destroyed my ship on sight. I followed a wake while tracking a bounty in a Fer-De-Lance. When I dropped, he and a wingmate were there and shot first while I was assessing the situation. My well upgraded Imperial Clipper at full charge and condition was taken out in under a minute. DO NOT FIGHT ALONE. When the player was messaged about it, his only response was "Stay out of Open Play." Watch out everyone, and get yourself a wing if you plan to take on the Community Goal in that system. If anyone manages to kill the guy, let me know.

Unfortunately naming and shaming isn't allowed on these forums. You had better remove the name or a mod will.

courperationX · May 16, 2016

Shaming? How is warning people shaming? It's not like he didn't do it.

Stupid_hippy · May 16, 2016

Just telling you the forum rules. I don't make them up.

courperationX · May 16, 2016

Should I just let other friendly players get surprise by him? That seems like a messed up thing to do.

I hear you, not blaming you. Just seems like a weird thing to be against the rules. I guess I'll just leave it up until it's taken down, warn at least SOME people.

True you will be sanctioned and post locked etc.

Set up a posse

courperationX · May 16, 2016

So because someone was aggressive towards me, and I warned people this guy will kill you on sight, I will get punished? That's literally victim blaming on a virtual scale. I don't have a posse, or a group. I just fly solo for the most part. Isn't that the point of a game like this? That there be consequences for actions like that?

I fly a Cobra and dream of the day I'll fly my A spec Clipper. I fly Open in my Cobra most of the time; chances are, I will meet a 'psycho puppy' in one in 5 player meets.

I have a list, of possible targets for the future.

Forum rules you agreed to, said, no naming etc.

Forgot it was in the agreement, I removed it. Kinda defeats the purpose of a warning though doesn't it? How in the world am I supposed to warn people about stuff like that then? That seems like a fairly important thing to do.

If someone asks, you can PM them the CMDR name. Then they will do their due diligence. Pm me his name. I have some friends who love hunting folks like this.

I am pretty sure I know who you are talking about. I was followed into a high rez site and attacked, but i was able to get away, he then followed me out and tried to interdict me. I think they are just killing for fun because i didnt have any cargo and i wasn't wanted. The only thing he said to me was hi, but i think that was to distract me because he interdicted me seconds after.
EDIT: The person was in a wing with another FAS, just be careful flying alone.

"Stay out of Open Play." DON'T SAY THAT, PEOPLE! We already have half the community playing solo... We don't need to drive even more people away from open...

I seriously doubt a guy like that would be on these forums to see your plea, unfortunately.

It's corvos, nothing to worry about

X-Terminator · May 16, 2016

Right on CMDR, on my way!!!

Tommy2Knucklz · May 16, 2016

Wait, Yall found em? I want in on this! lol

courperationX · May 16, 2016

How goes the search?

EponymousCowherd · May 16, 2016

What is needed is a bit of "passive aggressive ". These wazzocks want a fight, don't give them the satisfaction. You are in a Clipper, boost away and high wake.

That will annoy them far more than fighting them. Even if you did manage to turn the tables on them (unlikely in a Clipper vs FAS + FDL encounter) they'd probably just log, anyway.

thenicko33 · May 16, 2016

we dont log. seriously guys, these complaints (which I know are directed at Vail and Corvos) about us logging are really annoying, and this is coming from someone who, despite what a lot of people think, is not a member of either group. any members that do log usually get the boot. we also don't kill sidewinders in eravate, both groups have a big no-no policy when it comes to noob slaying.

we also prefer it if people hi wake rather than log on us. I interdicted a corvette + fas wing while in my cutter (and solo btw, because I love fighting blobs solo. some of my best fights are me vs a wing+), get the vette down just to have him log. we're the griefers? really? at least we dont cheat or exploit the game.

you want to know how to get rid of us? get a wing together with ships that arent using dumb pve builds, interdict us, and have some fun shooting at us. pvp is why, after over 1000 hours, I'm still playing this game.

oh, another thing, my gt is the same as my username, so if you see me, interdict me. I have a nice bounty of about 300k credits on me too. so by all means, try to claim it.

edit: too late on the bounty. I gave it to a mostly harmless viper
