You know, I also can post a thank you to The Admiral. No other pilot has been more patient with my training and outbursts. He has spent countless hours training me and teaching me how to chase and run. Where to go and how to get there. Even out of game things. How to post on the forums and editing and adding colors/quotes and many other things. He showed me the Foxit PDF reader and Imgur. Literally everything about Freelancer and the Crossfire mod was my first real game on PC. I played a lot of League of Legends but this game is on a whole different level and requires some knowledge about PC's and how to use them.
Also...before I met Bandit, I did not keep an accurate log. Him and Shadowdragon inspired me to use an old school pen and paper.
Before my log a pilot helped me. My first ship was named Sanders. I asked a pilot for help with a trade. I asked if they required payment for helping me. They said there was no need and asked how many credits I had. I was down to well below 5 million. They asked me to check my bank and BOOM, I had 500 million! That pilot, I later learned, was Spock. I would like to give a shout out to him also. He started my CF game off in a great direction. The credits he gave me led to Shadowdragon and I exploring most of the Sirius system and buying whatever we wanted.
I later made 800 million in one day. Spock, if you read this, I can pay you back at any time for your generous donation to my CF career.
