    "The proof of the pudding


    is in the eating...", I was told as a youth. Well, OP, the Freelancer community is feasting


    on CrossFire with this latest release (except for those of us starving to get on!).


    Congratulations on your success, as well as the rest of the CF community making this a place


    that people want to be a part of!![203]

    u know that all serverclans have access to the console and see


    you online even if they are not on the server?


    As I have already stated,

    I personally will NOT violate this server rule under ANY circumstances

    Since only the Admin's have responded to this thread, maybe you could address the


    root question:

    I guess I do not understand the problem with leaving Custodian @


    level 39 with a cargo of whatever type...

    ? The only real issue I see here is that


    whiskey is the only commodity (aside from ships) traded in Custodian that is not available


    elsewhere in Sirius. Its rarity should then command a premium in the marketplace. But I


    have seen no ban on its export from Custodian.
    Players already know the risks of


    entering clan systems, and I regularly warn players of this when I am on, and see that they


    are in clan space. Yet, players do what they wish... If someone calls to sell me a load of


    whiskey, I'm not going to ask how they got it[frust]

    I guess I do not understand the problem with leaving Custodian @ level 39 with a cargo


    of whatever type... Otherwise, shouldn't this be contraband? Even contraband is fully


    marketable as any other commodity. As far as I can tell, it only exists to add some fun and


    variety to the game...[prost]

    So if you're on your last load before level 40,


    I'm not


    talking about abusing privileges...but Freelancers do sometimes take risks, like going into


    Custodian when no BG are on (parties shall remain nameless here...). I personally will NOT


    violate this server rule under ANY circumstances, but not all FL's are as scrupulous...


    Hence, the reward [8]

    Anyone interested in some easy money in CF can bring a cargo


    of whiskey out of Custodian. I'll pay $1000/unit, up to 100 units. So if you're on your


    last load before level 40, or happen to have BG permission to go there, bring the goods to


    CA_Cache, Centaurian_Alpha or SS_Endurance, and we'll have a toast to your Crossfire


    success! [8]

    Note To Pirates: We know who you are.... [9]


    Crossfire is the most


    interactive, expanding, challenging,
    prettiest, deepest and most accessible game I have


    ever seen, anywhere. Having arrived somewhat late to the whole MMPG universe is something I


    count as a blessing, because I did not have to wade through miles of crappy app's to get


    here! Growing up in Sci-Fi, board games (!), arcade systems, and computer games merely


    formed a desire in me for the type of game only CF has been able to satisfy!


    Keep it


    coming, OP...

    Riddick_7: You may have


    noticed that since OP worked his usual magic with 1.56, server traffic has been up sharply.


    Not all these players have hi-speed connections or fast computers. Yesterday I saw the


    portal home page show 38 players in the game at once! That is the highest I've seen since


    I've been around here, and the trend is upward.


    If people are dismayed by this


    development, they can skip another latte, and send it to OP instead, so he can think about


    increasing his server capacity. Otherwise, think of it as "cyber weather" that changes by


    the hour...[biggrin_christmas]
