More cheating scum

[Boris]

Please see my comrade's comms below. I've now just watched Escort Delta self-repair, find himself & decoy and jump out, all in turn 468. Not a funny joke.

Also strongly suspected password-sharers. Time for some a/c deletion, oh Powers-That-Be.

From: Falken II.
Turn: 467
To: All in Squadron
Subject: No fair, they shoot me and jump?

All three took shots at me (Kenny must have found a gat), but kenny and serial are jumping out. How is that possible?

Escort Delta 467 -295 2946
Escort Delta 467 -105 3241
Escort Delta 467 -26 3346
Escort Delta 467 -249 3372
Escort Delta 467 -279 3621
kenny101 467 -898 3900
Serial 467 -250 4798
Serial 467 -210 5048

Apparently it is a general bug - we have recreated it, though I resisted the temptation to try it myself. It can't be done in TVS, so that's a bit sloppy.

So maybe our miscreants aren't actually hackers - merely disreputable vagabonds willing to use any trick to maintain their ill-gotten & unworthy existence. They have no standards, no code nor any right to share the same Galaxy as decent folk.

Also, they killed me twice - once when off-line for days, once when a wee fiver (still took all 3 of 'em & cost Hipster his ship - ha!). So obviously I'm a bit bitter...

hoa11: I know this... but we can still report any incidents with those pilots...

Boris: confirmed... they're using he same thing on us... in a development, it looks like pilots *may* be doing the same thing with powering down and repairs... I'll check into it.
