    The astreus exploit where someone puts it on infinite loop around a solar system is a very big problem. But if they want to troll then i have something to strike back.

    Since they would auto-die within 12 minute when leaving, they could not win no matter what if they left. But if they stick around or just go afk to watch their troll victim suffer, then they are having a great time cheating. Not if i can help it.

    Here it is; patrol infinite boom bots or dox around a planet until the simulation completely freezes or lags down to .4FPS. I made a calculation, if it takes 12 minutes for a player that left to die (that's me, the troller of trolls), then at .6FPS, it would take 200 minutes for them to die in real time.

    but really, astreuses should be one-way.

    Now they can't move for a couple moments though, so as long as you have fighters- it should be fine.

    That's too much work when playing on 5 or more planets. This is far easier. And funny :D

    I was hoping this would be a guide on how to scare off the forum trolls. I am disappointed.

    Hey kiwi, out of curiosity is that what happened just a few hours ago in that game we were in? I left the server near the end because I got bored but I remember the last thing you typed in chat was something about "So do you want this to go on for another 20 mins" or something like that... :)

    BTW, those dox deathballs holy crap trashing the fps.

    I have issues with Trolls. Solution:
    I bog down the server trolling everyone in the game (not just the troll) and everyone else who happens to play on this online server, despite them having nothing to do with my issues!

    Sorry, but if you 'solution' involves "putting undue strain on the servers" you are violating every rule of decent player behavior. And just about every ToS you find on the planet (they always have a rule about taxing out the servers).

    This is up there with the worst troll post I have read. As a person living speaking and writing in a foreign country i have always admired your will to not use google translate but if you want to be taken more seriously or have people understand your sarcasm and not think it is bad english then i think you should start using it.

    You freedom has a clear limit. And that is when you start to infringe on other peoples freedom. That is how every community and soceity work.
    That is how every constitution worth it's paper works.

    If you goal is to sabotage the servers intentionally, then you are infringing on other peopels freedom to play the game. So your right to play the game as you want it has reached it's end.

    In short: Don't be an *** and you won't be treated like one.

    There is no win loss ratio or any kind of record of your games, so if all he has left is a comm and astraeus you've already won so just leave.
