OK, let's try this one more time, with emphasis added and short sentences to make it easier:

You get it?

They block you.
Their galaxy is empty.
Yours is not.
Exactly what I said. Once you start blocking, you mIght as well play solo, because you will only block YOURSELF out of any instance that has AT LEAST ONE player on your blocklist.

Yeah, it's complicated. But so is orthography. Good luck!

ok let me explain to you . if you block ganker the galaxy stays the same to you . if gankers block you because you are anoying them galaxy stays the same to you because well they deleted themselfs from conecting with you .. again its irrelevent what your trying to say . as i was pointing out that blocking works because the only people effect by it are gankers..

ArtieJust for the clarity - some of the recent posts were removed and a warning was issued, so let's leave this topic...

Thank you for this. You play an important role on this site, and time and time again you do it very, very well.

Kelootif you block ganker the galaxy stays the same to you . if gankers block you because you are anoying them galaxy stays the same to you because well they deleted themselfs from conecting with you

Here's a challenge for you:

Imagine a busy star system, e.g. Deciat. There are 10 players in the system, all in the same instance, i.e. they can see each other. One of them is a ganker that you have blocked. You jump into the system. How many players will you see?

Tiffany YürBesides, you can fly freely in at least high res -sites, if you do not deploy hard points. Do you want to see how police forces take out other NPCs? Go to Res without weapons drawn. Thought that easy bounties would be possible this way, shoot a couple of laser shots at an npc the police has almost taken out, but this is not possible, you need to be an active bounty hunter and likely show some initiative to get the bounty.

It makes no difference if you have your weapons deployed or not. the only thing that counts is whether you land a shot on a ship. Nobody cares if you shoot and miss.

You don't need any skill or experience to be a bounty hunter - just go to the RES and help the police.

To qualify for the bounty, there is a small threshold of damage you must do and you must do that damage within 20 seconds of the hull reaching 0%. Once the hull reaches 0%, no further shots count. I don't know when this started. Previously, you only had to land one shot within 20 seconds of the hull reaching 0%. I think it changed when they increased the threshold of accidental damage on a non-wanted ship.

If you use a Sidewinder with standard pulse lasers and you only shoot ships that the police are already shooting, no ship will shoot back at you with one exception: Anacondas, Gunships, Kraits and Crusaders might carry a fighter. If they have one, it will get you from behind as soon as you open fire on the mothership. In this case the best strategy for a Sidewinder is put 4 pips to shields and wait until the target ship's hull is very low before opening fire.

Another behaviour worth noting is that if your ship has a fighter with fixed weapons (muli-cannons best) and you set your fighter on the target ship and wait for it to land a shot, the target ship will only chase the fighter, leaving you to get easy shots at it's powerplant, and it will not use chaff. This behaviour continues until its hull is down to about 25% to 35%, when it will turn to you. If it chaffs, that's the sign that it will turn on you.

Lastly, never take any cargo into a resource extraction site or compromised nav beacon unless you have a very strong ship and you want to deal with multiple (up to 12) enemy ships at the same time.

It seems to me that they do not enjoy the game in and of itself and have to make it fun (in their eyes) by ganking. I see no benefit to ganking aside from the emotional satisfaction they may get. Just like a sugar rush, leaving you feeling empty shortly afterward and craving more.

o7 cmndrs I was wondering about the transfer/copy from console to pc. Does this only copy to horizons on pc? Or, can it copy on odyssey. I assumed you had to start a new game on odyssey anyways . I need to be clarified.

Save files are compatible across PC versions. Whatever you had on console and is then transferred to a PC will be compatible with Horizons and Odyssey. You do not need to start a new character.
