should be a nofrag zone. something stupid like, home sector and your connecting sector, where your protected by badassness police. new people deserve to be protected. period.

/me thinks this should be in suggestions...

I can't do anything about it :(

New people can be protected if they make money and train in homesectors instead of going into s7,9 etc and shooting people expecting not to be shot back at!

I think a main problem is, everybody who they can shoot at appear as 'enemies' on their radar, so the logical first tought is: 'AAAHH!! enemy! SHOOT! SHOOT!'

Ofcourse.. they don't know yet that most of them shouldn't be shot at the first place.. maybe there should be a 'show everybody as neutral, unless they shot at you or team members' option or something, wich could be turned off so that the n00bs will not be hostile to all...

"where your protected by badassness police"

And what exactly do you call the def-bots? They viscously attack any non-team member who happens to fly into those sectors... and they have uber weapons. I don't recall anyone having a problem with being shot up in their own sectors... except by bots.. and we need those for training.

The main problem I see is the CTF system makes there no simple way to have both protection for new players and feasable entering and exiting for enemy players. I do believe that players who have learned how Vendetta works should be responsible for defending themselves or running to the station. People can only grief you if you leave the station, meaning you should understand the danger by leaving.
Though maybe there could be a practice sector for new players to learn how to fight and defend themselves. Maybe require a few kills in a row before they qualify to be space pilots (Much like a driving test). After that they can leave, though this should be a one way exit leading to the nation's main sectors 1, 2, and 3.
...just a little something I thought up in a couple seconds so it's pretty incomplete :P Whada you guys think of something like that?
