Although, bringing up the few grammar mistakes is a bit harsh considering there's a much harder to understand post on the previous page. At least we know what you are asking for...

Luke3107To be fair, you're probably better off posting in Wing Promotions. I know you're not technically a "Wing" as such, but that's where most people would go when they are looking for other groups or players to join in with.

Captain Prancy Paws approves of this man's use of "The English."
Captain Prancy Paws also thinks this should be in the Wings Promotion.
And finally, Captain Prancy Paws thinks this man has a hostile prejudice against commanders with the name of Kevin.

Septimus RavenRyan256Ok... so now that passenger missions have been bludgeoned to death with the nerf bat, anyone have a good suggestion for building up credits to outfit an Imperial Cutter?
Bounty hunting mein freund... seems to be the only one that's immune to the nerf hammer.
Suggestion: go to large enough empire aligned systems like Hu Jini (5'th planet is a T dwarf with huge rings and right
nearby in orbit is another gas giant, each have 2 high res areas, but i suggest you stick with the dwarf anyway) or you
can try Karo (close by, large pop, empire aligned same as Hu Jini, but only one planet to speak of. has just a single
high RES on it's rings, the rest are hazardous so not recommended). Been to other cool places aswell, both fed and
alliance aligned but that's a story for another time. After you pick a location, equip a ship (preferably one with an SLF)
and then go inside the RES area of your choice and wait for ships to spawn. Don't bother staying in unless you see
FAS, Python, FDL or above (that's how you know the spawn will be mostly large bounty ships) and then attack one or
two, until cops show up (they're important, as they will most of the time help out by drawing enemy fire and support with
the tougher enemies. also, when i mentioned SLF i ment you to be the one flying it. your main ship acts as a tank and
you play the support. recommend condor with gimbal beams, but the others work well too, just don't pick something
that doesn't do any damage at all, you'll just end up being a liability). That's it. Then all you have to do is stay there and
farm for as long as you can. Usually, after an hour or so you should be able to get about 5-8 mil in bounty. Possibly more,
but i don't stress too much about it. 5 is pretty good anyway, and if you get the spawn rate right (pretty easy to get that
one, if you see at least a FDL or a conda at the beginning then you're golden) then you've nothing to worry about; i've
rarely witnessed a drop in spawn rate in Hu Jini, that system is crazy (once i've even had a team of 3 condas showing
up).
So that's that. All that's left to do is just kill kill kill... Ferry missions just went out the window, long range trading before
that, empire farming before 2.2 (or after, don't remember what's what anymore) so yea... what's left is the combat. What
we can do now is hope they don't think about capping the max bounty per ship to 50k or something...
Yeah.... I'm thinking I may do that. My Anaconda is pretty well equipped for combat. I do want to find a Taipan fighter for it with the plasma repeaters. I currently have the Imperial version. Nice fast fighter but way too squirrely for my taste.

Nearly all of my post is junk mail these days, mostly garden-related.

60,000 light years in two days? That's a LOT of concentrated playtime.

This is awesome, and this is what the game should be all about. For all the nimrods ramming people in slots or ganging up to ruin other players' day, there's moments of such camaraderie and cooperation. Tiny and sparse points of light in a vast and hostile blackness.

Anyone know if this is a thing or a bug?
I've looked quickly on the Frontier forums, but I don't like breathing the air in there for too long so I only did a quick search.
TIA

So I apologise for repeating a question I've undoubtedly asked before.
Where do you go for the avatar creation? I was sure it was SC or Eve but no joys on Google for either of those. A link would be hugely appreciated but directions are good too.

Myself and several others used EVE online to make our characters, and it recently went free to play, so I highly recommend you try it's character creation out.

Presumably to make use of the Character Creation, I'd need to sign up to it, but is there a download or can I create a character via web browser?
