tonight I saw a CMDR in an orca with a pink paintjob and an inappropriate name, don't know the CMDR name because I had to escape quickly, he was at mackenzie relay at the cemiess system where the community goal is happening and was inside of the station with its' landing gear and cargo scoop deployed, blowing up other CMDR ships coming in and out of the station. player ships were outside of the station spectating like if it was an arena, cheering and chanting obscenities in the chat box whenever the orca blew up another player's ship that tried to enter or exit the station. I managed to escape and decided to play in solo. could anyone go there and intervene? I guess that's why they call Elite: Dangerous dangerous, because it's a dangerous environment.
someone's trolling in an orca at cemiess

lol.It's Saturday night
I guess everyone's got to entertain themselves in some way, I actually got a kick out of this station event and laughed at it instead of getting mad like everyone else. I should've recorded a video of it but my canopy was breached and when I came back the game put me in a different instance.
He can play how he likes. The problem is yours, not his, but you have the tools to solve it. If you instanced with him you can find his name in your Contacts tab history, click on it and block him.
Well... if he was blowing ships trying to get in or out, in Mackenzie Relay in Cemiess, i would assume he was racking some bounties?
In which case the station should have all guns on him?
And if he was not getting toasted in like 3s that would imply he was cheating?
In which case you should have used the ingame report button.
If not, you can allways block him - you should have him in your contacts list already and after a relog he should not be a problem for your future session games in Open
Otherwise, Solo/PG are also good options to play in crowded places
That is still warrant for a report...
If he was managing to destroy ships by ramming at less than 100m/s then I guess he deserves his kills and his victims shouldn’t be in such weak ships in a CG in open? Anyway I did enjoy the system chat last night
Good point. If he was ramming them, he'd get a fine. If he was shooting them the station should have been training 50,000 "frickin' lasers" on him in no time.
That WOULD have been funny. Either one (as well as a type-10) is a "Mooooooooooove Out Of The Way" type of ship. Especially if you add hull reinforcement.
No it's not. There is C&P for that
is it?No it's not. There is C&P for that
like for getting your ship to ram and destroy another ship inside the station?
or getting your ship to deliberately getting another player' ship stuck in geometry?
because if is a C&P in place, then last night wasnt working - killing a clean ship by ramming or other means should result in a bounty, which would incur a nice firework show from the station guns.
Which wasnt quite mentioned...
anyway, no wonder Open is getting depleted if people are cheering for station rammers
It's no different a situation to pad blockers, if you really want to dock there just switch to solo, do your thing & switch back to Open when you like.
Difference being a pad blocker is just inconsiderate or a troll, and not putting on a show to entertain observers.
