To CMDR <Snip>

Love this.

Also, it truly exemplifies how I deal with so called "griefers"

Everyone is dangerous and should be handled with caution. I've had CMDRs be nice to me until their wing shows up, I've had them attack me in CZs without taking a side. Every time, my heart is pounding as I decide if the fight is worth it, or if I can even get away if I tried. I don't get mad, players are true wild cards and I like that. Also, what is losing 2 million in fake money anyway?

I never go across populated space without my Clipper or Cobra anymore. Need the speed!
 
I saw a commander named that in-game...Are you talking about them, or are you hiding the name of the real commander?

Moderator removed the CMDR's name. It is against the forum rules to name commanders other than yourself. It doesn't matter if it is meant positively or negatively, you can't publicize the names other CMDRs.

If you want to try to shame or thank someone, go to the subreddit /r/EliteDangerous

That was proper entertaining like. +1 reps for you sir.

I've been on both sides of situations like this, where one side basically doesn't really... appreciate the full reality of what's going on. Part of the reason I love interacting with cmdrs.

Nice read to the OP - quality post.

Ref mentioning other names, I remember some posts by the mods a while back that it's not totally against the rules to mention any other commander's name. If you are just thanking them for being a great commander that may well be ok. It depends on the context as it's naming and shaming that is not allowed.
 
+1 rep from me too.

I'm set up with an X52 pro, and doing anything unusual with the keyboard in a hurry usually results in Bad Things Happening.

So it's probably worth mentioning Roccat Power Grid again, which I finally used to set up comms shortcuts and the necessary navigation buttons to easily get around the comms panel... Handy when being pirated and trying to point out - in a hurry - that taking 72 tons of rares off me, in the cluster where I bought them, isn't exactly going to turn a profit andpleasedon'tblowmeup.

I also mapped out Wingman controls, finally, after someone was hoping to wing up to kill CMDR <snippety> <snip> in his Python. I realised I had not a clue which controls did what.

So, yeah, repurpose that crappy underpowered Android tablet that some phone company offered you for a song to do something useful.

I had no idea that naming a commander in a positive light would get edited by a mod. Live and learn, eh? Only reason I posted this, and named him, was in the hope he might read it. First player I've actually interacted with in-game since PB.

I really enjoyed your post...it was a fun read.
yes, I agree...its sad that the ingame chat is so borked that one must come to the forums to open dialogue with another player.
