    Hi mates


    Having decided to finally go digital - I bought myself a whole lot of Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet CDs from HMV


    Can anyone suggest how I can rip these CDs into MP3 format so I can transfer them to my new fantastic mp3 player?


    Any suggestions on a decent FREE CD rip thing to make those audio files into MP3?


    Many thanks

    Hello - best wishes to your new corp and all that -


    You can count on my support for shipments of flower seeds and marshmellows, Mami Mia DVDs for your troops and I can organise hand holding and flower arranging sessions for your fleet to relieve their stress.


    As I have already proved my trustworthyness by giving you guys back all of Doppleganger's goodies, cash and equipment - minus the compulsatory 45% Food Tax


    I wonder if I can apply for a life long freedom pass into your clan system?


    I would have asked the other guy - but he always looked a bit shifty to me - apparently he is gone, resigned, again.


    But since you are now in charge and you seem to have a very nice manner and voice - will you accept my humble request?

    Hah - neat - now I can come and go into that system as I please (which is my right anyhow) - and do what I want where I want to whom I want .....


    I salute you Sir, the worst lawyer I ever saw - you were never able to save me from the fire - we had a lot of fun - some of the best times.


    We couldnt have all that fun, if we didnt have the cops, and even OP's OPUS - so I salute the cops and OP too.


    Send me a PM when you need some flowers and marshmellows and I will try and make it - I sort of check SWAT on a daily basis and have even moved some basic foodstuff from NB to Stutt the other day.


    Best wishes

    Well - I dont know anything about this and this has nothing to do with me.


    I understand Gunny's frustration here - but I repeat, choosing to take a system such as Sovets where some of the best ships and equip are - and the fact you need to pass through to get to other places - meant this would always happen - no one can be surprised.


    Long ago we should have stopped fighting over who want into which system without permission, and just done rp -


    It seems many of the incidents in CF are not rp related at all - it;s a shame.


    Even forgetting all that - I have met Ryder Hook a few times since I been on CF - even in those IOC days and he always seemed to be one of the better guys on the server -


    I always got a gf, a good conversation and good relations with him.


    There - I said it - dont kill me Guns!!


    Help - Police!!

    For the cops


    For some reason beyond my comprehension - I seem to have accumulated more than 1 Bill worth of SFP assets


    Since your former employee - Doppleganger - has gone awol - I would ask that someone from this great clan contacts me to allow transfer of these rightful goods, merchandise and funds back to you - minus 10% tax


    (No, not the pirate kind but the legal system tax rules imposed on us all by Liberty Government)


    Send me a PM and I will try and make it.


    Otherwise I will assume you wish to donate said wealth to best loved charity purposes that exist in Liberty systems - mainly:


    1. Flower arranging classes for pirates and others with anger management issues


    2. Scientific research into organic marshmellows to foght famine in pirate infested systems (when I say pirates I mean cops)


    3. Liberty Navy funded venture into a new production of "Mama Mia" to support misguided pirates into more productive vocations and use art and creative industries to escape lawlessness and downward spiral of depravity and deviance.

    I would like to win the fatso of the year award - thanks.


    Er - nearly fourty and very handsome.


    Still have my own teeth - but they are dropping like flies.


    Drink lots of tea and dont ouch booze or smokes - or that dreadful coffee stuff.


    Big Sci Fi, RPG guy - also a bit of sports fan - but not cricket (I said sports didnt I?)


    Current bad habits, EVE ONLINE and OBLIVION - looking forward to trying Stalker and Fallout 3


    Why I play Freelancer? Cos of a little game called Elite - programmed a whole universe on a little floppy disk

    Ahoy mates


    Apologies for attaching myself to madame Lucy's (evil swashbuckling pirate - boooooo!!) thread -


    but recently I have tried to get online a few times - not least to pass back Dop's stored treasure - but once the launcher updates itself - and I try and launch the game - it just crashes.


    The only thing I reckon I could have changed on my system since the last time I played was adjust some of my Trusted Sites thingy - does CF need to be included here? and if so - what address needs to be included?


    Many thanks

    Ah mate - I went back to the thread and had a look - I can see what you mean - it was a bit cheecky of others to do what they did.


    But your leader (Pheonix) also made some nice posts - nice to see an apology - I wish your clan well - seems it has some good members in it already.

    Hi all - not really news but fyi


    Due to some incidents I dont like, going back a few months, I have formed an opinion concerning SMG and set my status with them to IGNORE.


    Basically SMG=BG=IGNORE


    Server looks great and I enjoyed being back recently -


    Gfs to you all


    IFC_Az

    Ah - looking back - lots and lots of great moments


    The Sol blockade was fantastic and its a shame no one has quite matched it since -


    Angmar showed me the way to the rift in Sol and when I jumped through - I remember thinking HUGE WOW when we got to the other side, where I first me this guy called "ooo" who sometime later tried to fix a rep problem in Dublin by killing loads of nps and the whole screen was literally white all over, like it was snowing in space with all the pods he killed.


    Flying the Predator for the first time - thinking WOW -


    Getting in and out of Hiruga on my own - took me 2 hours,


    A smuggler event where Dopple was 0.5 secs from docking and I just managed to kill him as he was docking in NB after hours and hours of fun


    Killing Gunny as he tried to intercept some smuggers going to SOS with BMG - telling him afterwards he didnt have permission to enter Colorado.


    A lot of the ASF/CSF stuff when taking part was more important than winning.

    Excellent synopsis!


    As OP points out, FL allows for many different configurations of controls and weapons, so one cannot assume that their own limited knowledge is the "state of the art", no matter how good they may be. Since I have never worked very hard at learning combat skills with other pilots, I have always been loathe to accuse anyone with outright cheating. I have asked questions about various players' sometimes surprising combat effectiveness, and have even been told of outright cheats by SP's from time to time. But given that my connection speed is up to 5x slower than many of the successful pilots, many things are possibly contributing to my own rather high mortality in combat.


    While PvP skill is perhaps one of the more satisfying aspects of CF, fortunately, it is not the main thing, and I have learned to adapt to ace pilots as hazards to be avoided if I am not in the mood for a fight. If more players took this viewpoint, we would see much less frustration vented on the forums, and more people on the server having their own brand of fun... 8)


    You may not be an Ace pvp pilot CA - but you certainly are an Ace pilot - in my LP days the only way I was ever able to get you in normal rp was to hunt you down with about another 20 pirates - Hook finally got you in Leeds if I remember correctly - gf mate on that performance.


    Good post from Simba -


    I am not a very good IT technician and I have poor eyesight - i really dont understand how it is possible to tell if someone is cheating considering all the variables - just as CA said.


    I would strongly recommend you say gf - no matter what happens in pvp and rp -


    It's OPs business to sort out the cheaters (and integrity of the game) with help from SPs - our job is to enjoy the game.


    Anyway - hope to see some of you guys soon.

    Yep - I learned it's good to take screenies

    Hi mate


    Interesting post and I did link back to that original thread and see what it led to :-)


    Quite a few threads on the forums tangent all over the place so dont be discouraged - it doesnt seem you are though -


    I sort of agree on what you said and I suppose and hope most people do as well.


    It's nice to see it everynow and again to remind us, so well done mate!


    Regarding what you said - I would suggest you talk to people as and when you need info or company - even talk to those people trying to kill you!!


    It's worth it as you may end up meeting some great people here whatever faction they are in.


    Bet wishes brave pilot!!


    If you are reasonably new here maybe you could outline the problems you faced in another thread - and also the adventures you enjoyed.


    Some of us need to remember how it was when it was all new - for me it was both fantastic and also very emotional :-)

    Come on mates - this is enough now.


    I would sugget you talk to each other off the forums and on MSN directly -


    We have seen enough of these to know in the end no one wins and SWAT is the main loser.

    Well Guns - if this is your final goodbye - I will wish you the best.


    As I said many times before I dont know how you handled it (the crap) for so long, it would be nice if you could spend some leisure time (rare for some of us) just relaxing and enyoing stuff - you sure did put a lot of time and effort into this community and sometimes I failed to see what you actually got out of it.


    Although I disagreed with your "sink or swim" style of roleplay at one time - looking back it was very educational.


    I would repeat, in my opinion, you were the best roleplayer out there and the server was not the same when you were not around.


    Bet wishes Mafioso, Most Dangerous Man Alive, Coffee Entrepeneaur, Tax Evader and best pvp trainer pirates ever had.

    We need more server clans - OP can't afford to buy his girlfriends skirts or trousers.


    Hmm - I wonder if all the server clans resigned what his girlfriends would be wearing?


    Now we know where everyone is Kerm
