Ram killing...

Nov 18, 2004 CreeBarney link
Ok so here I am, killing bots in itani space.... After killing a bunch of bots to gain itani standing, i decide to repair...warp to the closet station and what do i find? Some new guy in a bus on the verge of destrution firing shots aimlessly into space...and then he sees my %29 hog and bolts after me...then ram he blows up....immedaitely the gaurds on me! %13, %2, boom....next thing i know my standing with itani is -779 ...from +332 to -779....!!!!!! and for what, some guy decided to ram me and blow up....I didn't ram him, and i definately didn't point my blasters at him and fire...This is completely unfair and now i must spend A LONG time gaining that standing back in order to get a valk...Please change this, and if at all possible I'd really like my standing back....

This has been a problem for as long as the factions were in place. It is very easy to loose them.

Something indeed should be done, but the real questions are what and how. I am at a loss when it comes to these.

itani and serco are at war. sure, maybe its not fair. but then again, its your word against the bus drivers. in times of war, the idea of 'fair' goes out the window.

No, it isn't fair. I believe your reputation should be reset. I can't do it, or I would, but I'll point it out to someone who can.

This also goes for any station (not just warring factions).

After mining, my centaur was pretty heavy. I saw the *valk jockey* undock and shoot forward, it was too late... I was sent spinning - the said *valk jockey* obvously did not appreciate this as he turned round at took my centaur to 22%. The defence bots then undocked, and rammed straight into me - not only sending me into yet another spin, heh, but also making them shoot me to bits. It was fun, and I had a good old laugh about it ingame, but why should defbots ramming you get you killed?

Okay, Cree, I can reset your reputation, but we've got to be online at the same time. I'll be online as Lodestone or Ku Genin. Ask me or one of the devs to reset you next time you see us.

I, like yoda, only see humor in the situation.
What can be funnier than innocent people running into a seeker?
