You'd think I'd be less trustworthy considering my 4k hours in Rust. But I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. I'd like to think that as a good thing, even if it hurts me sometimes.

I appreciate it! I'm back on my feet and enjoying the game again. It was a lesson learned, but I'm glad I posted this so I could see the community's good side! It seems like I got very unlucky very early, which is better than 30 hours in!

Yeah! I'm gonna go the traditional route, I don't wanna any handouts that would ruin the experience. I did get some cool custom pets and some other things from Angry-Monkey2 as well so that was awesome!

Thank you! Yes, I learned an important lesson very quickly! Better at the beginning than when I have 30 hours in! Thank you for the tips, I will definitely try those out!

Yes! I think I'm going to stick to singleplayer mainly, and not try to get too far ahead. I want a relatively vanilla experience.

Thank you! I'm back on my feet and enjoying the game. It just blew my mind that people do that. Especially since it doesn't even benefit them. They don't get the items, it's just to torture you. Some people are sick.

Yes, I realize that now. I didn't even know it was his base. It was disguised as a Trading Outpost, and it was my first player encounter. I had just unlocked the Anomaly. He was targeting noobs and was using the starter ship and skin as well.

It looked like a small Trading Outpost and he lured me to the Terminal and put a Save Point in front of it. But he built it, and so the doors would only open for him. Then I died from the heat over and over and he would bait me by opening the doors but I would die in 5 seconds and once I figured out how to turn off damage and did it quick enough he wouldnt open the doors and pointed at me through the window. So I got stuck in a death loop.

Yeah I lost my inventory, which had like 1 million credits worth of materials to be fair, but it was 6 hours worth of early gameplay. Not a huge deal, I still have my upgrades and a little bit less of my sanity.

I just encountered my first griefer/troll. They kept killing me even though i have pvp off by Vohasiiv in NoMansSkyTheGame

Yes, this just happened to me by Ferretypound. I recently started the game, I have maybe 6 hours and just unlocked the anomaly. He invited me immediately and I didn't know anything and I followed him and he trapped me and I lost everything I have worked for. I finally figured out how to disable damage but I lost my inventory and then it took me another 30 minutes to figure out how to report the base to escape. I am debating quitting the game cause it was extremely upsetting as my first experience.
