  1. While on Discord and looking at the game, I had an idea to give the idea to Bring back the Outlaw rank that was in use since day 1.
    I have the solution by putting it into 3 more separate ranks into the game. (Including a few mission ideas)

    What is an Outlaw?
    An Outlaw is a company traitor in the same company as you're in who either killed a player in the same company, or stealing cargo boxes by the player of the same company. (Or stealing cargo boxes that is not free from an enemy company.)
    ([​IMG]Here's a picture just so everyone can get the hint.)
    https://ibb.co/0V5WVrc

    Instead of the red rank insignia, I would suggest making the red cross to be recolored to Orange To signify that there's no human on board and they're temporarily but permanently Outlawed as a botter. And one for Dark Green, but it will be explained later if you read through the whole thing.
    (Because there are actually some real players who has the red outlaw rank.)

    It's very rare to see an outlaw by the same company. So this is my suggestion.
    My idea is to forcefully punish botters instead of Bigpoint punishing the whole game by bringing back this rank.
    So here's a list.

    Reporting
    -Players makes a report of documentation proof of the server that they're currently in, or what Merged server that they're on. (Reporters must make sure to copy their physical in game.)
    Note: You can check the server that you're currently on just by hovering over the Globe icon, do not click it, be patient for the result.
    -If proof of evidence is sufficient, the player who was caught cheating is now given a very special rank of -∞ Honor.
    -Bot Reporters gets a special title <No Human Spotter>

    CAUGHT LACKIN'
    -Caught botter's will be locked of using the Auction House. (Still visible, just can't use it.)
    -Caught botter's skill tree is automatically resetted without notice. (So they can notice that something's wrong, lol.)
    -Registered botters will cause no harm to any PvP fights, including the same company.
    -Registered botters cannot join any clans (And will be automatically kicked out if in one to avoid administration payment.)
    -Registered botter's weapons, drones, rocket launchers, P.E.T. and shields will all to be reset by level 1 default.
    -Not only the bot's registered, but the computer will make a note to deny any new accounts from being made by the registered device.
    -All of their jump vouchers will be removed except by leaving one jump voucher. (Which will be explained in a minute.)
    -Registered orange and dark green botters will earn -100% honor, -50% less Experience points, Uridium and Credits per alien kill.


    Chance to earn it back.
    -Botters will be restricted of every mission except for a chance to do "An honorable mention" where their honor points is set to be a default -1,500,000 Honor.
    -However, instead of the Red Crosshairs, I would suggest a temporary No Insignia rank letting everyone know that they're trying to earn their rank back. (Also a form of shame if you think about it, lol)
    -Temporarily be given normal rewards unless if mission is aborted.
    .
    +Reward: Have everything from the stats page to be reset to 0 (Basic Space Pilot) so the player can have their rank back and no longer be targeted, but they're still not trusted yet, meaning that they can't access to the restricted
    ?However, the Basic Space Pilot's rank is transparent. Signifying that they're not fully trusted yet until they accept and complete the other mission "Prove it." (Which will be also explained in a minute)
    But?
    -They cannot access maps X-5 to X-8 as soon as they enact the mission, or the mission will be too easy. (The jump CPU is locked on every other map except for the friendly X-1, X-2, X-3 and X-4. They get issued one free jump voucher if they don't have one as soon as they start the mission or they can use the home CPU which can only be used once.)
    -They cannot upgrade their gear until further notice.
    -However again, if they're caught botting again while doing the mission An honorable mention, they get banned off the game permanently.
    -They cannot use any ships that was purchased by Uridium, including the Leonov. (This idea was to bring back the use of Credit Ships.)
    -Temporarily blocked by using LF4's, Magmadrills, Unstable LF4's, Paritydrill, and Hyperplasmoid's until further notice.
    -No player in the same company shall harm the player that's trying to earn their rank back. However, players from the opposite company can do what they please.
    -Their lasers or rockets will not do any harm to the following NPC's.
    Lordakium
    Lordakia (X-5)
    Sibelonit
    Kristallin and Kristallon (Including plagued.)
    Cubikon and Protiget's
    StreuneRs
    Any alien by jumping into special X-1 Galaxy Gates.
    Any Uber and Pirate NPC's.

    "What if they abort An honorable mention??"
    They need to be extremely careful to not hit that "Abort Mission" button, nothing's stopping them, but that also will be explained in a very GREEN environment in the next two colored panels below.
    "Any more ideas?"
    (From the transparent rank idea.)
    -An another mission idea is named "Prove it.", allowing the Ex-Botter to kill a registered Outlaw botter by any company.
    -They're allowed to have their LF4's back, including the special ones.
    -They're temporarily allowed to visit maps 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3 during the mission, but they can't access anymore upper maps. And they have to report back to mission control to complete the mission then be forced to restart the game client in order to have the fully visible rank.
    +Reward: Title saying <Ex Convict>, player went through the long haul of the road they were in.
    +Reward: Unlock all missions again, be allowed to upgrade every gear, be allowed to use the Skilltree again, and be able to use the Auction House again. And be allowed to visit any map by the appropriate level.
    +Reward: Earned the rank Basic Space Pilot and be allowed to advance to other ranks.
    "That playa's been caught lackin' again"
    -Even though the player has manually completed the mission, then just permanently outlaw the player, make their career extremely challenging. They don't deserve a second chance because that mission was their only second chance.
    -Instead of the orange rank insignia, their target rank is permanently now to be set to be Dark Green, signifying that everyone has a greenlight to kill the specific marked player.
    -Make everything in their shop double the price for the permanently registered botter.
    However, the Dark Green Botter is a free lancer now that he ain't doing anymore missions, but they can still roam around and destroy NPC's and as usual. This will save the trouble of Bigpoint doing anymore actions against the convict. Just leave it to us and allow us to have fun again.
    However, they're allowed to do PvP, but they don't have any upgraded gear again.

    Now let's get to the fun part for the honest to God players out there.
    -Registered orange and dark green Marked Botters will be treated like enemy players, since there's no human on board (Maybe on green) of the registered ship, then don't feel ashamed, just fire at will.
    -Killing a registered botter by the same company will remain as the same honor, but no experience points will be given.
    -Killing a registered botter by the opposite company doubles the honor by 25%, but half of the experience points by -50%.
    -And it's obvious that they will run away when shot. (And 95% of the time, they never fight back), but when fired apun, they get a special PvP anti-jump lock of 120 Seconds on every single gate in the game including friendly maps, when engaged so they have nowhere to run, nowhere to jump, and nowhere to hide. You get to kill them slowly.
    -Anyone who assists the player who's killing any registered botters shares the reward.
    -Killing over 100 registered bots will be given the title <[MMO, EIC, VRU] Anti-AI Police>


    I thought very long and hard of this idea to be 100% fool proof of no loopholes.
    Really hope that this will be brought in the game even thought that this list is long, but do-able.
    If anyone gets outraged over this, then I have proven my point that this idea grows stronger daily.
    It's in my strong opinion that Bigpoint needs to step up and take action along with the community.

  2. I'm all for this but judging from the amount of botters taking advantage of this event Bigpoint don't really seem to care about stopping them right now sadly. If I was in charge I would implement this and take immediate action to all bot users. Pure negligence to do anything really.
     
  3. And just like every other player-based reporting system, worthless.

    It sounds good, but to be honnest, why would u go trough all of that when u can just buy a new accound? And if ppl get caught, why would they start over when they did all their big honnor missions? Their is t a rank to chase anymore. And on top of that we already have a schrinking playerbase how many more would just quit on the game, after losing they acc for the most part anyway? Its hard choices bigpoint need to make and companies go for money they mostly dont care about what players might think, as we have seen for the past 11 years. Also bigpoint highest amount of earnings is from design packs, boosters(50%) , rebate , premium. All things a botter always buy. So i have a question for u now. If u would run this company and its ur bread every month to have a house to feed ur kids etc. Would u risk it all to lose 50/90% of the current players just to keep a few happy, or would u turn ur back to the few angry ppl and keep this game alive a little longer? I know what i would do. Cuzz keeping a business alive is way more important than a few faded voices
     
  5. I
    isn't this a PvP event? Unless you mean because the ships are botted they can do more. I've been gone for a couple of weeks and this is my first time with this event so not a clue on my end.
     
  6. Didn't you understand that no matter how many solutions Big Point offers, it doesn't want to stop the violators and with this decision they ARE ALSO part of the violators of the law and as such they deserve congratulations because their goal is one - to live and play without laws. They study. After they do not punish me why I follow the law, the punishment is symbolic. I will quote from memory "we have a 100% system that catches everyone who plays with banned software, but please do not play with banned software". then years passed - there is no change and no hope. Success to all who believe that they can change something. Only God can change people and the way is one - FLOOD!
