We know he plays the game, there's a video somewhere of him getting murder-hoboed whilst flying an asp (no it wasn't an NPC).

Maybe that's why PVP's been getting systematically sidelined, he might hold a grudge.

Well, that's exactly what I mean. Show me a video of any Fdev employee ever that doesn't look like their skill level is literally on par with a new PS4 player fresh out of the tutorials and still struggling to figure out how to dock their ship. Fdev developers (with the exception of SJA I imagine) look like they can barely figure out how to fly their ships. You don't get that way from excessively playing the game:)

Then the complaining would switch immediately to "they are playing game's not working on micro-niche demand #8943".

All? I can't think of one.

PUBG
Battlefield 1 & 4
The Division

are what I played before/at the same time as Elite.

PUBG is a PvP specific arena game, so it's more CQC than Elite: Dangerous
Battlefield, see above
The Division - funny, I didn't have random members of the public forced on me, I only played with friends.

Yeah on these forums. Because you shut everyone out. Go to reddit and its the complete opposite. More people use reddit than these forums. And thats a fact jack.

I'm on Reddit, this is utter cow muck.
Nothing on the front page right now about the mode system and the only people who moan about it there are old griefers banned from here.
Most ignore them, while they pat each other on the back.

Funny how most have the same guild tag / flair showing.

David Braben is still in charge.

There are videos of David Braben saying he is making a game HE wants to play...... you or me are not even an after thought.

Wonder why they are banned from here genius? 100% sure it has to do with the conversation I had with Robert Maynard above. Most people just stop coming here because of the toxicity they get from the mods and people like you. And its not griefing if they advertise OR HUNT OTHER COMMANDERS. Its called game play. And its not utter muck. Its the turth.

Take your pick sugar pie. Its a subject brought up often.

I think it was Adam in one of the live streams was outfitting a Vulture and he put something like a 3B power distributor on it.

Once the murderhobos showed up he was perplexed as to why he couldn't boost. :)

Try and cut him some slack because the stream was after a full days work, but still........

You're not the only one with edited comments around here, but guess what - that's an offence worthy of ban - you know, "discussing Mod actions" (Try reading the TOS).

And to answer the first quote, they got banned for doing what you've just done - talking about a private matter publicly and mouthing off about the Mods.

And Reddit is public, anyone can go look at the lack of mode system whining and how it's full of questions and and answers.

[Edit by Jockey added below]

LOL, that is my post from SOG. Just noticed.
You could have linked the post directly :p
And you still should not be talking about Mod actions, and it didn't keep me out of trouble at all

Here you go. =P

Not only have I come to these forums with proof about this stuff. Ive also shown the difference in reddit and this forum. Ive also shows that the majority of the people want changes and the same 7-10 cronies show up following Maynard around. While there is 30+ here and 100's if not 1000's speaking up about this stuff and upvoting comments there instead of here.

But hey, you guys have no one to blame but yourselves.

With that rhetoric you have shown only that you can't argue, you just insult.

Gotcha and feel you, nineties. Still, you can be more elegant than that. Subterfuge and subtlety if you will

Oh well… where's jason when we need him

True, you grow tired of it you know. They get away with murder, brigading and silencing. And then they threaten to ban because you speak up against them. All because your views are different. And their personal views are better than yours. Then they have mod power to boot. While the same posse follows them around.

Its shameful.

They get banned because they get really upset about the way people play the video game and start name calling, they get an infraction for that complain and query the mods, get another one for querying the mods then go back to name calling. Eventually they get banned.

No moderator conspiracy, just a failure by some forumites to get their point across in a way people are willing to engage with.

It's not about silencing anyone - it's about how you speak to others and showing a bit of common decency and respect.

The fact more murderhobos get the boot than any other player demographic should speak volumes about the mentality and attitude they have shown.
I've had the boot from here a few times - and for the most part I deserved it every time.
