It's been a while...

Well... this was a longer break than I expected. Don't know if anyone remembers me at all (wasn't too far in before I had to take a break due to life), but I decided to return. I have had a real itching to play some space sim (and SC appears to still be a long ways away... as is the day I can afford the specs needed to apparently play it ). Plus, this server was full of cool people.

How has the server been since... November I guess. Anything exciting?

And hopefully this time I will have the patience to acquire enough money for a battleship!

Oh I know Forlon, I had a train and all. Its easy, just can take time (and/or a bit of luck with daily routes available...)

And nice to see such a warm welcome! Its always something you got to watch out for coming back to an online group after a few months; you never know where other people have been since then. Just glad to see its still running, and hoo boy am I eager to see 2.0 in action (of course, all in good time. And no, no I won't ask the question I know modders/developers hate... )

I have to say... going through the Lexicon, I feel like I saw a couple of ships I don't remember being in the game before... probably just because information was scarcer then. Its awesome to see how detailed the Lexicon has gotten! Now I just need to remember the kings of the VHF in terms of PvP combat; all I remember is there is basically a "final tier" of VHF, and that amongst those, the ships with the best agility/maneuverability were the best to be piloting.

EDIT: Well crap, looks like I need a new char. Serves me right for not copying account id after getting a new comp.

DOUBLE EDIT: Uh oh. I lose connection once, which is nothing unusual. But now my CF launcher crashes on startup... I'm going to try reinstalling, and double-checking it was ran as administrator.

I swear, UAC can go... well, do something bad to itself.

I, err... okay then. So, whenever I boot it up, it tells me the program has "stopped working", and asks me to press the kill command. Thing is... it works just fine. If I just wait, it will load completely, let me press multiplayer, and work fine from there... all while the computer thinks it stopped working.

Notably, it seems to be related to the different launcher you get after the first time through. Just weird. But oh well.

Well, since it actually "works" just fine despite the message, it's not too big a deal. Just find it funny.

OP, I see you are as big on using as few words (or even letters) as ever.

Thanks for the welcome.
