So the moral is,,,,

if you get caught being a hypocrite, double down and claim (or have others chime in and say) it's to raise awareness for (insert weak sauce point here) so FD can do something about it.

:p

#1 he always says he's getting ''griefed'' it's a meme, he's not being serious. Go check some of his videos.
#2 He did it on purpose if you aren't smart enough to understand the context go watch the vod.
#3 I guess 15 sec is legit right?
Fair enough. While you're in the mood to educate us, do you happen to know why he then logged back into Solo mode? Is that also part of some meme of which we're ignorant, or was it more of a spur of the moment thing? Either way I hope he didn't do anything to affect the background simulation too much while he was in there, what with it being unbalanced and "easy mode" and all.

As someone who is always on the receiving end of PVP usually at a CG in open (not that I mind it's part of the fun and makes the game exciting) I usually try to run from a wing trying to kill me if I'm on my tod by evading & high waking out. I've never combat logged and lost a fair few expensive ships and often much time and effort (meta alloy collecting anyone) this whole thing makes me laugh my socks off :)

Cant believe how thick people can be. You guys really think that <snip> would use combat logging (yeah, no difference for me- 15s or kill proces- same lame cheating) to save his ship? Well, if you are not interested in community and the game, maybe you do.

Look. FD does not care, we want them to start looking into this. Sundae is sacrificing himself to raise the problems of combat logging.

This knee-jerk reactions are both funny and sad at the same time :).

Absolute rubbish, your having a laugh. You can see the terror written all over his face as he waits for the timer to count down. Definitely a change of nappy was in order after that but I am sure the boys in the SDC squad have a ready supply on hand so as not to be caught out.

Going into a situation where he's knowingly outnumbered and legitimately logging out?

We've just found a whole new flavour of griefing!

I think if there was even a shred of suggestion that he set out to do that then your comment "may" hold water. The fact remains though that he panicked in the heat of battle (no shame there, we've all done it), wrecked his exit strategy then soiled his pants and menu clogged when he realised it was going south fast. No amount of lolz in TS and nervous laughing will detract from the fact he was caught with his pants down and whilst he likely didn't care if he lost his ship he sure cared about losing face enough to exit the game and limp to safety in solo.

I get the whole "we are just showing it how it is etc." and I get that there's no "rule" broken but the fact is we all know its an issue and we don't need more people highlighting for the lolz. End of the day with this sort of thing if you aren't part of the solution then you're part of the problem and highlighting it over and over and over again is not a solution it means your part of the problem.

Are you guys going to extend this thread to 20 pages?

He did it to save his own hide you could see the raw fear on his face.
 
The SDC do things because they enjoy it and can get away with it. If they can cause drama by menu logging, they'll do it. And the fact they're so vocal against it is all the more reason to do it. Notice the "I'm getting griefed" bit.

The actual issue here is that Frontier allowed a situation where it's possible for a player group which by all means deserves -and even asks for- trouble, to avoid any and all consequences by combat logging, and instead you guys are beating a dead horse by questioning the SDC's integrity, when that was certainly never one of their selling points.

Nobody likes menu logging. Personally I put the offenders on a KOS list and the next time I see them I try and do my best to alpha them in under 15s. But what good is it to get outraged at the SDC for doing it? Aren't they already on everybody's KOS list anyway?

If anything, be glad the SDC are the ones in the spotlight.
This guy gets it.

And I think that's enough of the naming and shaming, sniping, insulting and generally poor behaviour that does not suit a Sunday afternoon.
