Rammers at George Lucas Station
- Thread starter MissMeYet
- Start date
I think I have experienced this too. Someone attempted to push me into the 'birdcage' as I was coming into the station. It's difficult to identify who, though, because the attack came from behind - then I was inside and concerned with the landing.
(Even if I had been video-logging, I couldn't have identified him/her/it.)
They have no honour : They are not Klingon
It is not logical : They are not Vulcan
Where is the profit in this? : They are not Ferengi
Clipper's driven by Tribbles, if you ask me.

I got rammed by a player coming into Golden Gate in Alioth the other day. Took my type-6 to 44% hull. Of course, I don't think that one was intentional just a new guy in a sidewinder, trying to clear the birdcage and not looking in front of him. But he did scan me before boosting into me, and my hold was full of gold.
who knows, people can be stupid, who knows.

Yep, I was there earlier. Was docking, approaching the birdcage when a Eagle roared out of the station & smashed into me. It took me down to almost nothing & blew out my canopy. I corrected my approach from the collision & continued on in when a Cobra came zooming out & crashed into me blowing me up. It was no real loss for me as I was in my taxi Sidey but still annoying. Thinking that it was just two idiots that didn't know how to drive or perhaps that I was in error I flew back to GL & managed to get inside & dock with no problems. However this time I sat inside the hanger & watched the text & sure enough saw thru the text that ppl were getting rammed & told to ask for permission to dock.
This is one reason why I wish we had a "record" option to record game data for playback later outside of the game, as it would allow us to send actionable evidence to FDEV for people that do stuff like this. And as an added feature, maybe even allow us to create some really nice movies with cinematic camera shots from all sorts of different angles.
My first thought was "raming should flag you wanted" but your idea is much better. Trying to detect who hit who intentionally would be so exploitable. i can see all the griefers flying into peoples paths just to get them flagged then kill them lol.
Went to Volungu and saw someone gunning straight for me in a Cobra as I tried to dock.
Ducked with vertical thruster at last second.
Idiot smashed into the outpost and blew up.
Couldn't stop laughing.

well my reply to this thread vanished so maybe???
I'd love to do Open
But then I read this :/

Disagree. I like the Wild West. Always play in Open.
I do a bit of both but find there is very little risk/reward for just being a jerk to everyone. There need more severe penalties for PKing and griefeing that aren't easily exploitable like bounties.
