Alright heres my problem, hopefully its just an isolated event.
So my problem is that I am attempting to buy a Bribe/Reputation Hack for either the Liberty Rogues or the Mollys (The ones I've tried at least). So I tried to buy a reputation hack from Buffalo Base in NY. I purchased it and took off thinking nothing of it. I looked around and none of the Rogues were green. Looked at my reputation and it turns out that my rep had reverted back to its original value... I thought nothing of it and went on to Alcatraz Base in California, borrowed more money from a friend and purchased another hack, same thing. Again I thought maybe its just the rogues. I headed into Bretonian space and purchased a hack from Arranmore with the Mollys. Same goddamned thing happened. Moved on to Mull Base in Newcastle, took screen shots from here showing my reputation resetting.
The only possible explanations are that A) Either i'm supposed to wait or log for a long time or before I do anything after buying a hack (like launching). or solution B) It might have been that I was doing missions for the Rogues before I did the hack (by someone else starting the missions for me) and it messed up the rep.
The mounted player ID (the only one I had) was the Civilian ID card, I was in a higher end Liberty Rogue ship but those shouldn't have done anything either.
My player tag is Gauner.IV while this was happening.
I am having the same problem too. I've done the Molly bribe twice now from battleship Hood in Dublin system. I have a character named LucrativeMining.Inc. He's got a "miner" id and no IFF, (almost full green with junkers, but not yet.)
The first time I did it I went mining afterwards and everything was fine till some NPC Corsairs showed up and ran me off. Then when I logged in the next time after that I was full red with the Molly's again. So I paid the bribe a second time and went about my business. Again once I logged off and came back again I was full red with the Molly's. What's even more irratating is that it's not resetting the negative effects I get with BMM and Border Worlds Exports. If I do the bribe again, that will make me red with those two companies and I dont want to do that.
Any suggestions on what to do?
Use the smuggler ID instead of the recruit ID...
You can't pirate with it, but it's solidly unlawful and by its very nature it can't possibly come with a repninja built into it.
