I accidentally selected "open" when starting to play. No big deal - unless you're in the Lave region you don't see as many CMDRs in open as you do in Mobius anyway. So I started pottering around in a RES and decided I should clear up my transactions tab by claiming all the outstanding bounties.There were a few near Mutujiali, a few near Diso and a few somewhere else (I forget, now).
Jumping into Leesti, I see a hollow block on the scanner. Still not too concerned - then "Bounty hunters are not welcome here, leave now" in the comms window. So I keep barreling on towards George Lucas and then it happens - interdiction. Out of habit, I zero the throttle, let the interdiction happen and work out a plan while the transition is happening. I'm in a well-specced Vulture so I might have been able to take my agressor, but I really couldn't be bothered. I start boosting out ready to re-enter SC. A few projectiles hit me but I SC out without even losing a noticeable amount from the outer shield ring. Get to the station, trash talk the idiot who interdicted me then carry on my business.
Open play is tedious.
