When I consider the other thing speople have used macros for in this game. It does not surprise me at all.
Also.... he's probably not using his main account for this. A lot of these people use disposable alt accounts and such like things.
Yeah, I totally under use macros when I see what some other people are doing with them. I have simple things like spamming F so I don't need to wreck my keyboard on Nukara, or holding W and right mouse button because I'm lazy lol. It's just sad that they make these macros to do such things simply to troll people.
You're probably right about it being a disposable account.

i have also been getting fleet map invites, pvp requests, friend requests etc
i have got my settings to friends and fleet only. and that one player has sent me a friend request but i have just clicked the x and its still sitting in the friends window waiting to be accepted.
thats one way of stoping invites, to pvp's etc
also this play has also been doing the same in a coupld of chat channels aswell. and the owner of those channels have repeatly banned this player from the channel, but keeps coming back in,,
he has even tired to ask for a fleet invite to my fleet but we have delinced,
alot of my fleet members have had the same sort of thing with this player and just keeps harrasting everyone
one time a couple of my fleet members, have snet him challenges for pvp, in space and he accepted, and they started the challenge and he warped out, so that respect, hes being a chicken aswell...
we have reported this player on many times, and also have ignored him aswell..
so hopefully cryptic and sto development and game masters can do something about this player..
as l really thinks its against the rules and t/c's for players to harrass other players in game....

Unfortunately, I don't think GM are truly effective in this game. However, since Smirk is involved, we have some luck it might change something in this case.
And yes, it's totally forbidden to harass players. Unless you are using EV suits and fire extinguishers to wreak havoc on RP players (weirdos or not), that's perfectly fine.
Anyway, I think I'm more concerned about what's wrong with this guy, he desperately need the a doctor's help to get his head checked. There is something really wrong.
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

Probably cryptic wont do nothing.. I mean, I bet that you can probably threat to kill some one on game and they wont do nothing.. I have seen ppl giving racist insults, reported for month by different players and cryptic never did anything.
Best advice I can give, is that do not feed the troll..
Hoo.. and to the one who has issue with the shooter mode, maybe the troll is doing you a favor.. that mode sucks, lol.. use the RPG mode, get use to it and then send the troll a thanks note..

I don't think you read at all he is doing this to many many ppl on diff channels like the PublicElitestf's for 1 he is just some loser with no life harassing an stalking some players who knows they may do something about him they may not but with so many ppl complaining an reporting him they just might I hope so
As with shooter mode the invites make is so that you CANT shoot at all and if your just gonna be an TRIBBLE why are you even here
The guy behind all of these fleet map spam attacks is Sukon Medik@joecool82. Yes, naming and shaming, I don't care one bit. This guy has been harassing people for months now and needs to go. He also exploits nasty bugs in Ground PvP to instant kill people in Ground PvP. Just earlier tonight he cover shielded the hole in Undine Infiltration Elite to block progression of the mission.
In any case, there is a workaround to block Fleet Map spam. What you do is you grab a friend and have them send you a fleet map right has he attempts to hit you with a fleet map invite. The two will collide and bug out the client. The only way to reset from the bug is to log out and then back in again. I found this workaround while he was spamming me this evening after said Undine Infiltration Elite run that we won in spite of his progression blocking.

Yes, that is the guy I think is behaind all this.. but it wont matter, cryptic is not going to do anything about it.. like I said, you can be a member or ISIS and make propaganda in the Zone chat, and cryptic is still not going to ban you.
You know that major, you have GPVP experience and you know that they never ban anyone, even after hounders of racist insults and reports. Trolls are so happy in this game, that even when you threat to report them, they even answerd "go ahead, cryptic wont do anything".

I know what he is doing and I know who is the guy behaind this.. but I also know cryptic.

The only way, is not to feed the troll.
I know for a fact that this is the same guy behind it. The two characters are in the same fleet and the fleet holdings when you warp in are all Tier 0. Finally, he and the alts that were spamming me are the only characters in the fleet.

I know major, but like he allwais said "cryping is not going to do anything" and in that, he is correct..
That is the same thing that Mr B said in GPVP.. and he was also correct.. cryptic never ban anyone. Maybe only if some one exploit dilithium or somthing like that..

Cryptic never does anything? heh, well I doubt they take kindly to one person creating disruption of player's ability to play the game. If this were just one person they would look the other way, but he has been doing this to dozens of players for months now. He's going to die, maybe Cryptic will slap him with a range block for good measure.

Officially, no. Unofficially, nobody will do anything. Unless someone like Smirk is personally involved in the process, it's unlikely he will be banned.
That's probably why they added so many auto-ban features, so they don't have to do it.
It is 535am on a Sunday morning. I just logged into the game and I see this.
This is my first login of the day and I am immediately hit with it. It think this makes it very obvious that he is setting macros / scripts to purposely troll people.
Another reason why I feel Cryptic needs to address this is if he is running all these scripts constantly (as appears to be the case), his antics probably have a very negative effect on the server as all the scripts running non stop are taking away from the experience of everyone else who is really playing the game.
The only reason I can think of for Cryptic not banning him is that he spends a lot of money with them. Still, you have to weigh the pros and cons of it. If he ends up running off a dozen people, some of which also spend money with you, you are going to end up losing money.
What's it going to be, Cryptic?
No, I am not who you think I am. I am someone different. I am instead a banana.
ugh, yeah he's sent me invites to. Had to switch maps to get it to stop so I think he's running multiple ones. One targeting specific people and one targeting instance people.
Which makes his point of how shooter mode sucks in this game a valid argument. So he isn't being an TRIBBLE, he's giving you sound advice to avoid a game breaking design flaw that Cryptic has no intention of fixing.
Erm... I never mentioned shooter mode. Why are you altering my quotes?

"just got a message from someone asking for our guild leader, because of [Name of Troll], they thought it was the same fleet, so people thought someone in Saint Olivia was doing the trolling, i had to point out he's not part of our fleet."
I know everyone is aware of who it is, but I know I can't post the name. Like I said, he has made a parody fleet and is impersonating our fleet. Now people think he is part of us.
This is not good.
I have spent far too long building up a positive rep to let some jerk try and ruin it. I spend money just as everyone else does. I expect something to be done.

Can we have a Dev or someone with in-game power please look into this behavior? Paying customer or not, that behavior should NOT be tolerated.

Here is a screen shot of the fake fleet he created. He is now using it to troll people. Sadly some people think he is with us now. HE IS NOT.
He has created this fake fleet specifically to make people think this. I am watching mine and my fleets reputation go to junk as Cryptic sits on their hands.
We have but a single fleet. We do not have any extras. We are Saint Olivia. We ARE NOT this fake "Saint Olivia UFP." We are in no way associated with this person.

Sorry Khamseenair the stupid buggy forum is putting one of your posts in with diabolical91's (post #41) I was trying to quote and respond to. I didn't notice your post was included in the quote.
When I deleted the stuff I just started after the first ] and cut out everything above the part of diabolical91's post I was responding to.
I fixed it to reflect the correct person I was quoting and posted an edit. Again sorry for the confusion.
No worries man, sorry I got a bit worried when I saw the misquote. I know how easy it is to get them mixed up on this outdated forum software though.
I just got this message:
I know everyone is aware of who it is, but I know I can't post the name. Like I said, he has made a parody fleet and is impersonating our fleet. Now people think he is part of us.
Yeah, I have his name noted on my STO spreadsheet (I have a lot of alts and ran out of sticky notes to keep info on haha), I really wish the forums allowed naming and shaming for people like this. It's unfair that he can get away with risking damaging your fleets reputation. At least all the smart people know your fleet and know that you're not full of douche bags.

Knowing our luck, the devs would ban us and leave him roaming the galaxy. Plus, I don't really want to spend my days trolling someone hahaha. I have better things to do.
I understand why you'd be concerned, especially since the powers that be don't do anything to people that deliberately make false quotes. (The false quote I'm thinking of has been in a persons sig for about 6 months now)
So when a mistake like this is brought to my attention I try to fix it asap and apologize.
I appreciate it! I'm also pretty sure I know which quote you're talking about.

While we can't name and shame on the forums, the rule does not apply outside the forums and game. Just compile a list and post it outside the forums.
Okay, this guy has some serious issues. If this goes any further, well, I don't want to say the word "attorney," but this is getting criminal stalker scary.
Again, these are NOT my fleets. I have but one fleet. I have no special symbols in the name or additional letterings.
My fleet WILL NOT show up in the find fleet search tool.

He was spamming private challenges, but I adjusted my settings again. I have to adjust them all over again each time I log to a different character.

Wow, yeah that's messed up. I'd be scared by that sort of behaviour, as Rattler2 said that's pretty much stalker type behavioural traits.
I've had that happen to me, but the ignore feature has been rather effective.
Then again, I haven't had a bot set on me... still though, to create a bot to harass someone... that's um... concerning behaviour.
Best advice I can give, is that do not feed the troll..
