If you shot a neut, it's your own problem you can no longer dock in s9 and s7.
Should there be a way to rehabilitate yourselves? I think so anyway, but I don't see it as being as critical , as, say fixing any bug. Should it do that in the first place? Once again, my opinion is that, yes, the hit to reputations should be that big, or maybe even bigger.

I killed one NT and now I can't enter 6 without being KOS by the bots. Devs, could you reset the NT rating on Serco Fighter 1?

Right now the faction system doesn't read self defense, I killed a gold in 9 out of self defense and now i'm locked out of TPG sectors and NT sectors /6/3/7/9

Did you both say you're sorry?
Apr 30, 2004 SirCamps link
Yes. :( I'm Dislike 98%, which I didn't think was a KOS status, but apparently it is.

Heh heh, I'm sorry I think this is hilarious, especially coming from Phoenix and Serco Fighter 1.

It will probably continue to be funny until it happens to me :(.

Heh, yeah. PvP is not very good right now.

The faction standings work like this:
Love (0-100%)
Like (0-100%)
Neutral(0-100%)
Dislike(0-100%)
Hate (0-100%)

where 0% Hate is Kill on Sight
and 100% Love is Unconditional Love.
So each of the 5 sections have a 0 to 100 percent value.
100% of one is basically 0% of the next one up and vice versa.

Well, yeah, but I'm Dislike 98%, which is oh-so-close to Neutral, but I am blacklisted and KOS in sector 6.

Is there _any_ way I can get into 6 without being shot down by the defbots?

Well.. i acidentaly killed phoenix while he accidetialy fire to some NT folks in their buses.. and now i have Serco: hate 0%

:)

raybondo: that is a very very weird thing since it involves having your reputation go from 2 to 97 % or other such jumps. Itd be much more intuitive to have a single scale that goes from 0 to 500 if you need that.
Apr 30, 2004 raybondo link
Internally it is a single scale.
Apr 30, 2004 SirCamps link
So, hearkening back to the purpose of my thread.... is there ANY way I can increase my standing with NT, or is the loss permanent?
Apr 30, 2004 Sheean link
How's about changing the percentage into the total scale one, and keep the hate/dislike/love/etc thingy as it is?

Oh, and is it possible for an Itani to not get hated by Serco; else I should probably switch to neutral -_-

raybondo: Usabilitywise I'd suggest moving it to a single scale, and then adding the "word" description as a comment to it.
Serco 95% (loved)
NT : 55% (neutral)

and so on, since this leads to less confusion and a clearer image of how things relate. And its faster to compare and understand.

SF1 and Phoenix.
You must, 1) gather inventory of commonly sought after widgets, go to s6 and jettison them to NT pilots that need them for their trading missions...And, 2) buy pizza for 3 NT pilots.


(Sorry, FM...I forgot this was the Bugs forum.)

I destroyed a NT pilot out of self defense, it makes no sense that you get hated for defending yourself.
May 01, 2004 SirCamps link
OK, it was fixed in 3.4.3, and I can now dock in 6, and brought my rating up. woot.
May 01, 2004 Pirogoeth2 link
I killed a single NT and am now hated by NT:(
May 01, 2004 SirCamps link
Good! :P
May 01, 2004 harvestmouse link
it really does matter where you killed this NT... I've accidentally blown one up, but that was while I was botting in s12, so no penalty.
NT loves me :D
