so this sever is so called an "Elite" server, yet it has ALL the noob protections still on it?

I thought the entire point of the server was to be an old version of spaceo with some updates on it.  I didn't think that when the description said this it roughly translated to "old version of spaceo with NOOB PROTECTION ON IT" because from about a week worth of playing that's ALL I see. With exception of the Insurrection all the "benefited updates"  are just the noob protections.  This makes Elite not at all Elite, but more so the most epic noob server of the entire series.  

Emi, you need to remove the salvaging on shipwrecks, at least the recovery part for the person attacked.  when someone gets killed they need to get killed.  Right now the salvaging on Elite is so ridiculous the math has been done and its actually BETTER to be attacked and lose a ship than to sell a ship. (for an upgrade).

you also need to stabilize the attacking salvage a bit, I noticed after attacking the entire top ten (that I could reach) that when i took out a guy's 30bil in ships I salvaged 5.8 bil from the wrecks (as the attacker) but when I took out a guys 450 bil in ships I salvaged 900 mil from the wrecks.  WTF?  I was the attacker, I did massive damaged, and I got poop back?  

There is no incentive to even attack on the game.  The attacked gains more than the attacker, AND THEN the attacked has those amazing counters - so the attacked first gains more than they every could of (selling the ships) which is a benefit to them.  Then the attacked can do Covert ops taking out LARGE PERCENTAGES of the attackers money, and the attacker can't do poop.  I know after hitting the entire top ten and already being down 20 billion I had to deal with 6-7 covert ops attack which took down another 5+ bil of my only 28 bil I had left. -having to reserve ships behind p ships to be "protected" (which also loses more money due to the reserve fees) is stupid.



Elite needs to live up to its name and BE ELITE.  Remove salvages from the attacked, Remove Covert Ops, Add in Diminishing Neb. make the game Elite.  That or rename it "The Beginner Server".
