I complained about a mod messing with gameplay, among other things spawning in an insane amount of ships.
But it looks like the mods removed the post.
So here's the images again.

No. The mod started with a dread when everyone were at frigate levels and weent about the map trolling. He then started spawning huge amount of ships.
And afterwards starting spawning super ships aka nexus nodes.
It's still going on. Right now on the scneario server we have Random Nexus Nodes - like giant death stars - attacking our colonies and jumping around killing ships.

On the left you can see a couple of kluth dreds joining in the fight against the nexus node.
Funny note though:
One of the players managed to board and capture the mod dread.

Alright, the mod spawning a dread before anyone else can is easily counterable. 5 people in MF/Harriers = dead dread VERY fast.
As for the spam of ships, its ment to just have a little fun for the players, as well as for the mods. I can't see why you'd complain about something that is relatively minor as this, and I hope that this complaint doesn't kill mod fun of this variety either, because the vast majority love this kind of stuff every now and then. Adds a bit of spice to the game.

I said it could not be a mod or dev, but after attempting to play in the sen server and seeing for my self... GOD why screw up the game, WHY...

But can't they anounce this kind of stuff beforehand instead of just barging in randomly and start to shake things up? Sure this kind of stuff would be fun if you're prepared for it - but just jumping in and start doing a lagfest isn't really fun.

I always look forward to this. I just wish they would announce when they are gonna do it so I could be there! There should definitely be some sort of event like this where we can all go battle a huge ai army.

I'm all for that. Or Players vs Mods or something. Atleast then you can choose to participate if you feel like it instead have it forced on you when you were looking forward to a normal game.

Why exactly are you mad? Lost a little pres? Got a death on your record?
Got to reset your account because you want to be perfect or something?

Yeah, I captured the mod Station just for the hell of it. It was fun.
When things like this happen, its usually a spur of the moment thing. But I honestly would love it even more if it were announced. I'd get in on it. Darkspace needs things like this.
Infact, I'd even say DS could be driven by things like this. Events like this are amazing fun.
Personally, I didn't have a problem with the ships spawning and don't know why anyone would. Its sad because complaints like this is what keeps it from happening.

I'm not "mad" that would be pushing it. But I was looking forward to taking the evening easy with a friend and try a few tactics and basically just have fun.
Now it feels like that was taken away because some mod wanted to mess around.
And the statement about being perfect, dude, I have been killed 42 times, and 20 of those are from me blindly crashing into planets ;D
