Feel comport in the fact that if somebody feels the need to annoy you he is most likely annoyed himself.
If somebody needs to do so in a video game it’s worse because he even lacks the means to annoy others in real live.
Looking for a fun PvE fleet? Join us at Omega Combat Division today.
I would also suggest making a ticket as well, just to be sure.
Unfortunately, you can do nothing.
There are no rules in game and the code of conduct is not enforced. Star Trek Online is a total free for all with absolutely no rules. People can say and do absolutely anything and harassed players have no recourse.
I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm being unhelpful, I'm actually trying to do the exact opposite. I'm sorry that it doesn't help you, but it does no good to lie to you.
There is honestly nothing you can do about it, no one enforces rules in STO.
Anyways, as I see no one has bothered to answer correctly yoru question - except @kodachikuno - here is how you can stop those things bro:
1. Press (O)
2. Under one of the tab that comes up, look for 'Privacy Settings' on the lower right corner.
3. Turn on all the settings you want; Allow only friends and fleets to chat/tell/ AND issue challenges.
You can make this more secure by going anonymous; /anon - /unanon
Now all this won't work if the herraser sends you a friend request or is in your fleet, so that's were the anon comes in handy.
Hope this helps bro.
this happened to me once, i left the challenge screen up and pushed it out the way.
and this is probably where i remember it from until i changed instances.. yes.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
I was pretty sure those settings existed somewhere, almost any mmo has them, I just havent looked in ages. Hopefully itll help the OP
There should be a setting in there somewhere to disallow friend requests, as well as one to disallow fleet requests (for people who don't want to be in a fleet).
He sends challenge invites and then cancels them every few seconds and sends fleet map invites and bridge invites, spams with 100s of chat channels, if you channels his challenge invites he just leaves and waits till you he can send another one. He's obviously using a program to spam it to people

You might want to edit your post, as far as I know naming and shaming is not allowed (just a head's up in case anyone flags your post).
Ironic that doing something as shameful as this is allowed but shaming such a person is not.
Thats the difference between having active modding here and no modding whatsoever in the game.
Cant realy be that hard to do that, can it? Question directed towards the game devs.
Some one, some where has access to all zone/channel activity whether it be real time or reading logs. But that access is def available to someone. Not the forum mods but some one at PWE/Cryptics end
Right you are.
The game isn't a free for all because they can't enforce the rules. It's a free for all because they don't care enough to it. They have the tools, they simply don't choose to use them.
Enforcing the code of conduct doesn't generate revenue.

Yeah, but to what extent. Like in the previous post i posted they need to just add a few more buttons and this kinda stuff woudnt be happening at all. But considering how long it took em to give us the delete all mail button, it coud take some time. Maybe next year.
Yeah, I'm still not even sure I believe that.
I have been playing this game for years, and that thread is literally the first time I have ever heard of anyone getting any infraction that didn't involve suspicion of fraud. I don't know what exactly happened with that player, but Cryptic does not issue warnings based on in game behavior. If it really happened, he's the first one in 5+ years of game play. My suspicion is that there was much more to the story then what we were given.

I was able to block the invites in the settings, but he's now spamming and harassing everyone in the I'm in fleet. a fleet of over 300 a lot of new commers to the game in the fleet are being harassed by him now. I've filed a report as well of lots of others. but if the company isn't going to do anything about it thats really disappointing. I'm sorry but this game deserves to die if thats how its run and the Devs are 100% crass

Cryptic can't ban people for playing the game as they DESIGNED. So shut up and go play and jump around on ESD like people always do.
A griefer is a player in a multiplayer video game who deliberately irritates and harasses other players within the game, using aspects of the game in unintended ways.
Your writing style is similar to that of somebody recently banned...
With your very first post after creating your account being an insulting one, perhaps the powers that be should do an I.P check/trace
