Ya that would be funny...and we would likely be killed by another Sidewinder or "griefed" by someone in a Cobra. Man..that would be rough.

Or crashed into the mail-slot and reported the station to FD as a cheating griefer.

I need to modify my previous statement if we include death by station.....about 40-50% of my deaths account for this and griefers are literally in every system that is inhabited...I mean...when my BAC is as high as it is sometimes the mail slot should be bigger or FD should have at least given me a BAC module doesn't let my ship leave the pad.
I mean something...I shouldn't ever have to take responsibility for my ship blowing up...right!?
Yeah, i was there. Nothing crackin.
Im parked at Tionisla, spent about 3 hours around Lave tonight.
Didnt see you or Maj or Filos or any of the CODE boys.
Instancing or are you simply not there brah...
I have zero interest in solo play. I spent the last 30 years playing solo space games. I'm tired of AI. I want to play versus people. Unfortunately, open has been pretty dead every time I log into the game for the last few weeks so... I hardly play any more. It makes me sad because this game is great. 
I think there is seriously something screwed up with instancing these days.

HAHA this is priceless. Yet sadly its the truth about everyone who makes these claims. People just aren't happy unless the game plays itself these days. (auto aim in GTA, Assisted steering / braking in forza) like get real
Like many of the things mentioned by FD I hope we get Ironman mode too, but I would want the 3 saves they mentioned first.
Ironman is the one thing I would start a new CMDR for, no friday night playing of that alt
I should also have added that they kept the 'flashing blue light' rather than the transponder more players preferred (in polls), so that CMDRs are still selectively attacked by gankers, so called PVPers and pretend pirates. Pretend pirates because they also neglected to add the proposed 'proper piracy', complete with rankings, formal stand and deliver from PCs and NPCs, and so on. So given the lack of consequences for murder, only a minority of pirates role played piracy 'properly', and the others just attacked on sight.
A very obvious, predictable (and predicted by many) self fulfilling prophecy.

I am just here to give you negative waves. That is all.
I'm sorry but I'm lost and confused.
In one thread, open players want more rewards because open is so risky due to players,
but in this thread open is dead and no one is playing it.
What???
It clearly cannot be both - so what one is it, empty of players or overly risky because of players ?
Why am I thinking Immovable object Vs Unstoppable force ?

Open is inherently more risky due to the presence, regardless of how rare, of ganking players. Because of this additional risk, without additional reward, more and more people are moving to solo/group play and abandoning Open play. Open play is losing population (the reason to play open) because of this.
It's not Immovable Object vs. Unstoppable Force. It's Cause and Effect.
I really don't know but it's the kinda thing a Space Banana will look at because we study you Humans.
I've done two runs with no noticeable interaction so it's been cool so far.
I have seen two Humans, friendlies so some of it is working, one even communicated so yeah, cool enough.
2 runs is pretty minimal in a game this size so I will continue.
This is my first time.

I play open all the time. I see plenty of folks and never get "griefed" as some call it. I get interdicted.
A fight ensues, fun is had, ships implode, credits are lost. That's kind of the point of open.
If people want to play in solo or groups that's absolutely fine. There are still plenty of folks in open, you just can't always expect 10 people to appear in some backwater system.

exactly what i think, even me who was 100% in open, i'm now 100% in private group
this is a true problem that will eventually needs frontier's attention

I admit I would like multiple saves, mainly because while I love exploring, I can't just do it days on end. I'd like to have a little variety which you really can't do if you are out in deep space. I have great respect for those who can just explore for weeks on end.
