IMO, Hacking/Raiding/Disabling is only qualifable as harrasment when its excessive and one sided. (If your doing the same stuff back you have no right to complain)

A PVPer will normally just do these things to the people on their battle list once (just maybe twice) and then move on. To me these actions at this level are ntohing to get your panties in a bunch over. If you take the proper procautions (AKA play the game correctly) at most youll lose 100 research and some money for repairing. Nothing that would truely impead your ability to play the game, just a minor hinderance that an hour of production more then makes up for.

Now if these actions are done exxessivly and one sidedly and you arnt strong enough to fight back you should try to...
Turtle, AKA have so much defense that they just waste energy on you.
Rank up, become stronger while ignoring them and when you can kick their butts.
Diplomancy, ask for truce, if they dont accept tell em you got legion members wholl kick their butts, and if your in an organazation TELL THEM FIRST ABOUT THAT.
If none of that works notfiy your legion.
If that dosnt work notify your organazation.

I'm in a situation that is one-sided and excessive. I couldn't even touch the guy if I wanted to because he's 20 levels higher than I am.

-Turtling isn't helping. He's way too strong.

-Ranking up only repairs my ship so I can get immediately disabled again.

-I've tried truce (aka Calming Aplifier artifact), but he just uses a Containment Missile on me and disables me again.

-There is no want to contact a player in game, so how exactly do you notify someone that you're about to sick your entire legion on them?

ok 2 things, 1 this was meant to discuss what could be defined exactly as harrasment, not show examples of it.
2 That just looks like someones trying to take your planet and is having a friend help.

To me, harrasment is the constant disabling, hacking, adn raiding of an enemy as long as they are on yur newsfeed because of one attack, raid or hack.

Perfect. I think that should be the generally accepted sequence of events if you're being seriously hindered.
