Flamm

Please, pretty please.. provide an offline codex or at least the scripting section. It's HTML anyway so should not be that hard ..
 
having to go in and out of the in game one is not very nice.

Go ahead and wipe everything but blueprints, fix past mistakes and make release as best as can be. Based on the points made that sounds like the best option. As long as blueprints are revamped to make it easer to redeploy static constructs it should be fine.
I don't care if skill points are reset to 0, keeping all skill points might be too advantageous, but keeping a percentage of them or capping them might be a good compromise.
If a few people leave because they lost their alpha/beta progress then so be it, best to appeal to new players.

full wipe please  but keep BP (no magic !!!)

Full wipe please.

Today finding T5 on symeon is easier than finding T4 on the same planet -> to be adjust
to find more more usage for T5 ore
once done put the T5 on veryhigh gravity planet 1.5-2G

in order to show my disagrement about NQ prema-BAN action i decide to stop play DU for at least one Month.
 

So someone using hover engines on an elevator boosting them into space? JC himself said that this was never envisioned and he saw the practice bringing those who did it great profits, since getting to space the "proper way" takes nearly 100x more fuel.

Strictly, by the above definition you gave, they are exploiting the game.

So clearly, some exploits are allowed and some aren't....   Used a system in an unintended fashion? 
check.
Profited?
check?
gain advantage over others unaware of exploit?
check...

Seems pretty watertight case for punishment according to your statement.

Now, that last statement is very interesting. I searched for "delete non-player assets" in the EULA and came up blank.

but if it were in the EULA, then sure, they'd be caught.

But remember, NQ have stated they won't punish retroactively... so...

I hope you see that by defining something apparently watertight, you open the floodgates to other abuses.

I'd say that people seeing a Youtube video and then actually coming here to post about how they'd never consider the game due to this nonsense is not exactly "good press". There's many people right now, who never heard of DU before and never actually came here, talking smack and advising their friends to stay away from the game. How is that good press?
 
Yes, what these guys did was against EULA/TOS and yes, there should be consequences. Had NQ followed this line, smacked these guys over the head, emptied their in game wallets and locked them out for a while then I'd say fair enough and should have known better.
 
instead NQ pretty much went out of their way to try and set these guys up as maliciously using an exploit (which they did not), not bothering to report (which they did) and deliberately and with intent o do so wreck the markets (they did not) and cause loss of data (that happened due to NQ's now exposed sketchy way of implementing the market mechanic and how it interacts with the database. NQ can certainly make the case that these guys are accountable for the damage and can hand out punitive consequences for  it but the permaban is really way over the top.
 
If you break the law and in the process kill someone by accident you can't be convicted of murder, you would be guilty of involuntary manslaughter which is still a crime and you'd do time but you can't be put on the chair for it which is what NQ pretty much did here.

While I find the heist inacceptable, I am shocked by the decision of permaban, a temporary ban (even long) would be better imo. Maybe this has been done to send a message to players for future abuses...
 
You know markets are not player structures and this rule does not apply here, common sense should have stopped you from stealing anything.
 

Oof. Find bug, make sure it's a visible problem. Get banned.
 
I guess it's time to cancel my sub. Been an interesting time guys, but if you want to completely hammer a promising game into the ground and punish people exposing issues while doing so is pretty much a total no-go from me. I'll watch the dumpster fire from the sidelines.

Can we get a dislike button?
