If you see me flying back in forth in front of you with one Station Blueprint in my hold, that means i want to dance.

*salute*
i figured you had either fallen asleep, or were reading...lol

shoulda heard what we were all saying about ya.

Spine?

In the middle of a peaceful meeting between the two clans to work out this very situation?

i'm sorry i didn't want to be the cause of pointless drama.

I never like to make enemies with someone i might need to hire later.

Kissing ass?

I made about 40 million credits, then bailed on trading to help YOUR new member make it home from Sovetskaya.
While you were online and hiding on the planet.

I apologize if my lack of integrity allowed me to play a little RP peacekeeper rather than cause issues while this whole development was still up in the air.
I didn't wish to ruffle any PX feathers on the status of their original long-standing claim on the Blueprint Monopoly.
So yes...I paid a bribe.
I made it back and more while you were cowering on the planet.
Then as soon as i was done kissing ass, i escorted UR Shockforce safely back home. Which you could have done rather than sitting on the planet making no money.
The money i make?
Sure it might be ill-gotten at times...but i'd like you to find me a new player that i haven't helped out in one way or another.

If that's kissing ass...so be it. I'm a people pleaser. I can't help that.
But i'd rather be an ass-kisser than a coward hiding on a planet.

Quote from Rex Nebular

Zool, I was a freelancer for several years before joining IOC (Independant Operators' Consortium) and so I'll give you some advice from a guy who's been there and done that:

1) If you get permission to buy a certain ship/item, TAKE A SCREEN SHOT. It'll save aggravation later when you're asked.
2) If you don't have permission and someone asks if you do, say YES anyway. Keep in mind some clans will issue Kill On Sight contracts if you are caught in this lie.
3) If you get caught and are asked to pay ship/item tax, pay it and TAKE A SCREEN SHOT so you'll have proof you paid it.
4) If you get caught and are asked to sell the ship, sell it. Otherwise, a Kill On Sight contract is highly likely.
5) The best place to ask for permission to buy ships/items is on the clan's own website (most of them have one). That way, there is a permanent record of the granted permissions.

The Server Rules are one thing and should not be broken in any case. You break them and you're gone. But Clan Rules are enforced by the clans and breaking those might get you in hot water with the clan but won't (or shouldn't) get you banned. For example: during the last year of CF 1.7, I flew a Coalition Lagg or Saracen. Did I have permission? Nope. Did I pay tax on it? Nope. Did I feel justified in going around clan rules to buy it? You bet. I was a freelancer who wanted the most agile ship. I knew the risks of sneaking in and buying it. I could think of no reason why I shouldn't be allowed to fly what many consider as the best ship in the game.

If you read the Server Rules, you'll see that they were designed to make sure that no one player has an unfair advantage over any other player. If you read many Clan Rules, you'll see that they are designed to give unfair advantages to the clan by restricting or monopolizing high-end ships, weapons, equipment and commodities.

Most of the players here are a good bunch and enjoy blowing up each other but some take things way too seriously...and it will always be like that.

Well said, Rex.

Zool...If you ever see me online: SA_Name_ZEROTH feel free to hit me up with any questions about the game, or just to say hi. I tend to create large groups of players and help out everyone that I can. Even if i can't help, someone else in the group might be able to.
The only time i won't invite someone to group if they ask is if we're doing clan related things in group chat, or if the group is a private conversation with multiple parties.

Don't let a little drama and bs caused by the few prevent you from getting to know the many.

MOST of the players here aren't nit-pickers over little things...and we make it easier when dealing with those pesky few that are.

Good flying...see you in space.

Happy Birthday, Grand!!

happy birthday!

that was awesome, man.
(intended)
epic. thank you.

i like PX.
i've had some great duels and rp with them in the past. looking forward to more in the future.

*salutes*
Happy Birthday Admiral.

I'll bring the coffee.

I have no problem "as a cop" being shot by a cop for conducting illegal activity.

I hold no grudges towards anyone involved in the matter, yet the invitation for some friendly duels still stands.
I'm quite positive that at my current abilities, I'll be destroyed quickly, but I'm also sure i'll learn something from a few fights with anyone i haven't had the pleasure of dueling.

That being said...

If it is insisted that SA wear Police Licenses, i shall comply...but i will never be a cop.

it's all good. perfect time to check out ships in SP.
and catch up on forums.
it'll be back eventually.
anyone up for a duel?
go?

it's been like this for a while...
but this is the first post i've seen referring to it.

not sure what's going on, Vish.

i ALWAYS prefer a manual...except for ONE situation.

Driving in start stop traffic.

Move forward 2 car lengths. stop.

move forward 1 car length. stop.

wait 5 minutes.

stop.

move another car length.

stop.

If the gf and i are going anywhere...we take my car (standard).

if we're going to be driving in the city...we take her car. (auto).
hehe

Thanks everyone for the kind birthday wishes, and for all the fun in game.

I look forward to logging in each night...

Never know if i'm going to be smuggling goods to make a quick buck, practicing pvp tactics in friendly duels, interact with others while engaging in RP (bear with me here, i'm still getting the hang of it...lol)

Most of all i love to help people out.

Find their way in the game, and throughout the universe...

To everyone in CF...thank you for making my escape one that i enjoy immensely.

ocean...sea...it doesn't matter...

either way we can have a beach party!!

you nailed it Gunny.

I'm pretty sure i've got my hometown entered in the map somewhere around here.

It's a great area...even if the city of rochester itself leaves a bit to be desired...

grass is always greener, c'est la vie.

Nice.

I love new hampshire.

being 20 minutes from the ocean and 40 minutes from the mountains has always been a treat.

I'm familiar with newcastle and goat island. my dad used to take us to all of the historical forts in the area as kids...quite a learning experience.
