Which platform are you on? I think they're is a wing called something like Aussie spacers or truckers or something. My group has all the other time zones so there's always someone online though.

Haha i was griefed by a player faction and they then then trolled me i told them in no uncertain terms where they could go. My wingmates well some of them chose to back the other faction. So that was it.

I'm curious what you consider "griefed" to mean. What actually happened?

I am sensing that there is much more to it than that.

griefing in the game doesn’t exist.  Persistent manifest scanning, suicidewinders.  It’s all fair game.  Fly the speed limit and silent run with heat sinks.  

Only verbal abuse qualifies as grief, the rest teaches us to fly better

Griefing exists. In short one can boil it down to the phrase Don't do upon others what you don't want to be done to yourself.

But some people are not interested in this and have no qualms to ignore some basic characteristics of human interaction. May it be in Real life or in a game, you just don't mess around with others just because you can. It's a sign of poor character development in my eyes and such people are not worthy of further interaction at all.

This game we have here is far more then a simple Shoot 'em up but some are treating it like it is nothing more.

Same goes for other aspects of the game though. Instead of pointing flaws and exploits out to the community so that they can be removed to the betterment of everyone, they are kept secret by some and used against your fellow (wo)man,  wrecking their achievements.

I realise this discussion is as old the game itself, and there be soon enough others speaking out against it.

My dear CMDR Humpster, I wish you the best of finding a Wing of people who respect yourself and others.

They are out there.

So there's a Powers relationship on the ranks / reputation bit of CMDR profile now, showing Pilot's Federation. Where in-game can we see this? Panel 4 only shows the usual Federation, Imperial and Alliance statuses.

I dont think there is one as, as far as I'm aware, you can't influence your pilots federation rank. Its a kind of "invisible" power that's present in every system (maybe not anarchy), that's only purpose is to allow the now pilots federation bounties to be issued and collected.
