What to do with people who frag with deckers:
1. When breaking into a corp in the matrix, leave "evidence" behind on the pers
on who is trying to frag with you.
2. Go to as many corps, banks and even individual systems and do no. 1.
3. Tell all your decker friends that so and so is paying you to train him to be
a decker and that he bought a modified Fairlight cyberdeck.
4. Tell decker-wannabees the info on #3 as well.
5. Break into systems known to be inhabited by "bad dudes", Lone Star SWAT pers
onnel, yakuza overlords, mafia dons, dragons, etc. and leave insults, warnings,
death-threats, etc. and sign them with the name of your special "friend".
6. when in the matrix, try to fuck with that person's credstick, alternate iden
tities, bank accounts, home system (frag with his telecom, security system, ans
wering machine, etc.). Don't be shy! Steal all of his money, erase all record
s of his existence, delete apartment leases, etc.
7. The opposite of #6, be generous and honest by going into lone star's system
or a corp's system and "fill in the blanks" with that particular person's
"record case". For example, if you know that this person is responsible for
those 2 lone star cops getting geeked the other month, then you should update
the investigation file on that particular case. If you know that this person i
s responsible for that big run against Renraku, then drop some data-files
in or near Renraku that show who did it.
8. Fragging with someone's equipment is funny but fragging with their life is
much better and more satisfying.
9. When in doubt, refer to #8.


Have a nice day :)
