They need to bring back the Attack Pattern doffs, those things are vital if you don't want to do A2B (although MAYBE you could do 2x APB and Aux2Damp with the doff for A2D).

That's the polite name for the rape cave. It's a cave on the non-resort Risa map that is pretty popular with certain types. If you'd like to know more and do your part to combat this menace please run My Favorite Game, it's under fed foundry missions.

There's a cave on that map too? Never bothered exploring because it looked like just another launch-era shitmap.

What's the best way to grind out fleet credit? I want to upgrade to Elite Romulan Drones. I'm in NoP but should I de-fleet, drop marks into a lowbie fleet's Starbase and then rejoin?

Doffs. Buy cheap ones on the exchange, use up those mini-doff packs you get from lockboxes, mash up greens into whites, whatever. We have hundreds of spots available for doffs right now. Doffs are how I made the vast majority of my fleet credit.

Game plays well, most people here are horribly jaded of the game by this point, so the only fun is other people. It helps that the game is apparently full of weird people, though I've never seen the crazy myself.

Stole-via-than-99 is having his usual tirade in that thread:

Waaaaa trolls posted:

I would like to reiterate that this is a dumb policy and that thought is progressing towards the idea that anti-naming and shaming policies and "don't feed the trolls" make for bad policies.

I've seen probably five or six editorials in the last couple of months on prominent news sites, written by intelligent correspondents (a Ph.D or two in there, I think), on why the stock approaches to trolling, harassment, and "naming and shaming" are broken and why companies should be encouraging communities to fight back, not maintaining polite decorum.

The idea that trolls want attention is pretty demonstrably false and starving them of attention doesn't solve anything. The idea that inaccurate claims may be made is insufficient because communities will adapt to a norm of unreliable claims and bans on profanity/political discussions will keep the most incendiary claims at bay. The hosting company already avoids liability for claims made by posters in the TOS for the forums.

Posting a screen name is not the same as posting someone's home address.

I think everything in this post conforms to the rules. I am saying that I find the rules in error and reflective of thinking that may have reflected the internet of ten years ago but are not the kind of forward thinking policies I expect to see in the future. And I will continue to challenge the validity of PWE's forum policies as long as they cling onto the weak and ineffective "don't feed the trolls"/"don't name and shame" approach.

Waaaa double post posted:

Well, other companies have not only banned guilds but they have leveraged things like the DMCA and other legal claims to get the offending websites of these groups shut down.

I think it's a matter of time before the chans and places where some awful things get posted get the plug pulled. On that day, I will go out and buy a cake and a handle of vodka and throw a party.

Oh you cad.

How did it feel when you smacked me down and told me that I'm not to "refer to them nor use their exact name" , yet they can refer to but not use Nazi symbolism on these very forums ?

Anything strikes you as a tad bit wrong there ?

Anything at all ?

"Just following orders ?"

D-Day was celebrated just a few days ago .
Did that have any meaning for you , and those like you who protect the very ideologies that those who fought and died there on D-Day have fought to prevent .

"Be quiet."
"Conform."
"Obay."

I have one word for that , and that is : No .

Stoleviathan's really hitting his stride in that thread, isn't he?

quote:

Well, look, what if someone's issue is not with isolated bugs/exploits but with clear, repeated, and organized use of them to harass other players?

How much effort would it be to disband problem fleets and delete their chat channels, destroying bank assets and fleet holdings? And even then only when they cross a critical threshold and receive warnings.

It would at the very least destroy the leverage such groups hold.
