Well, what about this:
Godlike messages would only be activated by [EVENT] players during a limited time; it would work as a single event like "The 1st one to reach godlike wins 10mill". Of course this would have to be a FFA on EFZ under surveillance of [EVENT] player so no cheating would happen (like clanmates doing medic on a role).

Re: We miss frags...
Why limit them to events? Surely it would be more constructive for players to be able to show they are good at PvP by killing other capable fighters?
Medic'ing medics was very rare and abusing the system was also very rarely done. Mainly for a few reasons. You kill the same guy over and over, It shows and they think, ohh hes killed one guy. And it doesn't always stay, So you can't say, oh I have a god like tag. You have to re earn it when you die.
I just think it was a nice feature that sparked PvP and competition in the server. You wanted to be the best so you had to fight like you were the best.

Re: We miss frags...
Was just trying to put solutions for those who think it was an abused feature. My fav would be the permanet status idea I had before.

Re: We miss frags...
100% agree DarkPand0or, Asmo, Symbol and Stoert.
Frags make ppl selfish, the weak players are being killed more times (easy kill), many pvpers reduce the fights to keep their stats because they dont fight when they know they can lose, Medic is gone :D , the attitude is bad many times
I never mind about frags except in DTA clan, because there were a goal. I admit, it was funny, but I know too that it was selfish. We started many battles, yes, but when we could lose we run. And we killed many weak ppl, too much. Many of us got more than 80% Kills/deths ratio, and some 90%, and what for???????? for our fun, but what about of the rest of players, the server ?????
You know who can get good frags in FL?? a ppl that never fight in big battles or never fight when he is ganged, a ppl that only pvp and have good skills, a ppl that crater or dive in planets when he has some damage or he is losing a fight. Or a DTA style player, a rogue that runs and attack. And both type of ppl are something I dont like to see
About godlike, amok etc... I agree ent, but it has some peverse effects too, I know some ppl that used it bad, I mean the killed only weak ppl too to get the famouse SS and post it in the forum. But the diffeence is big, they cant dock, dive, repair forever etc... so it is much more honorable.
I get fun the same with or without frags but I dont like seeing some kind of ppl being selfish and worried just about their own fun

Re: We miss frags...
And hey, if playing Freelancer is all about stats, you can always NPC kill.

I had awesome frags fighting in wars and being ganged all the time...not all the players are the same.
Honestly most of the players with great stats were the ones with poor pvp skills.

really? that is not what I saw in last 3 years, but I can be wrong ^^

I couldn't stand them, the majority of players i met wouldn't get into a gang situation and would planet dive if more than one person turned up, you know who you are and no names need to be mentioned.
Everything done in games, will get abused in some manor, its the sad fact about games....But its not a reason to just take them away.
