If a player OOC's:: //Back Off //Leave me alone //Give me a minute, I am dealing with PM //OMP, I got an Admin in PM or whatever, then step up and be the bigger, better RP player and lay off the other guy.
It is not that hard unless your just a PvP whore and all your after is PewPewPew & a cheap kill.
DiscoveryGC keeps claiming the line 'Role Play first', then lets start seeing some.

As for the rest of it, this just another example of Don't trust anyone in game.
If your getting swamped in PM, tell the people to deal with you in forums PM or skype. The game is just not designed for indepths PM's.
Second advise is : Don't stop cruising. If your 35k above a planet and parked somewhere while your sorting out the latest B**Sh** in PM's, you already made yourself a sitting target. Keep that cruise engine on & flying. Fly straight up, straight down, fly off the map. But being above a planet ,sun or station is too old of a trick now adays that it shouldn't be completely trusted.
Next, do you got more than one person screaming at you in PM??? Then invite them to a group.
One reply is now sent to many other screaming players. Maybe everyone involved can then hammer out what-ever-the-current problem is and move on with life.
Beyond that.....It is just a game. There are some people of the 'community' who have it in their DNA that they are not happy unless they can inflect pain, suffering and misery upon others. --- That their daily goal is to take a **** in your cup of coffee. Most of these people can be spotted easily by their Hundreds of negative posts and nonsupported attitudes.
Just don't allow yourself to get baited into discussions with these spoilsports.
Expecting fairplay and logic from them is like expecting kindness & sharing from PsiStalker : It's just not gonna to happen.
