Anyone know if DBOBE is near the forums currently?
at 21:18 on a Friday night, I'd imagine he is chilling out of the office somewhere.

Short answer: yes!Actually, has ANY dev posted in this thread at all?

Hello Commander Demiga!
This is something that I'm considering.
There won't be any changes in the immediate future (our time is fairly booked up right now), but on face value it certainly seems plausible and maybe reasonable to me. I'll need to chew it over some more, obviously. I *believe* a change like this would be possible though (again, I'd have to verify that with team server).
Comments on this would be welcome.
Oh, but obviously, Commander Demiga, let's try and keep the temperature at a reasonable level. Everyone has the right to voice their opinion, as long as they do so politely.
Not quite, though not your fault. For many people, myself included, being attacked by a player is completely and fundamentally different than being attacked by a NPC, even if the end result is the same. It's why, in any game I play, I'm so adamant about a way to completely and utterly avoid PvP being always available, and recently also about PvE players not being at any disadvantage.
I do agree that you didn't do anything fundamentally wrong in pirating another player. But you should be aware that the mere existence of that play style does drive away players that seek open for the possibility of positive interactions with other players; regardless of how polite and amiable you are in plying your trade, it's fundamentally a kind of negative interaction, one that will frustrate, and potentially ruin the day, for a certain kind of player.
It would be awesome if a dev gave the last post.
Agreed. Sandro still needs to post his considered opinion.
Short answer: yes!

Yup, right here;
Edit
Just seen who he posted it to !!!! LMFAO
<snip>It don't think is issue is the number of players. I play from Australia and even at that time there are plenty of players around (well in the areas I play in) plus once you have a few players on your friends list (don't worry Dave I will add you tonight) you never play alone..
Lol I think I should clarify that.. Has any dev posted a response of any kind to an argument/idea posted in this thread?
...There we go...that came out better

I thought the Newtonian thread was quite entertaining!
Lol, he has replied to you in the past!
Edit: Jockey beat me to it.

Knowing that there is that possibility, can you explain why a person would choose to be placed in that position, as they obviously chose to play in a part of the game where that is likely to occur?
Edit: that response was back before the thread I started got nuked because people from this thread came over and continued their arguments....Im serious about that btw....like 2 pages in arguments and points get brought up by 2 people that came outta nowhere....so my thread got PWND lol

Can any of the network people out there take a guess if I would ever see Fire70 in open, I live in the UK and him Australia, I would guess the chances are low, just curious.
I meant more of an updated idea as a response to this thread or the ideas within as a whole...that response was back before the thread I started got nuked because people from this thread came over and continued their arguments....Im serious about that btw....like 2 pages in arguments and points get brought up by 2 people that came outta nowhere....so my thread got PWND lol

Hello Commander Demiga!
Don't worry, no harm, no foul, it was just a helpful reminder!
I can't give you my considered opinions just yet because, well, I need a little more time to consider them!
But this is clearly an interesting debate, on both sides of the fence, so we will revisit it at a later date.
