Elite: Game talk

There are a bunch of people that exploited the game in get rich quick schemes and as a secondary result, gained the "elite" title. But they wouldn't know which end of their ship had the shooty parts.

CciggieWell, I guess a kind community and friendly nature in a wing? My goal and ambitions is to stop all evil within systems and end the pirate threats in systems, ambitions to become a respected bounty hunter!
It's good to stirr things up else society gets complacent and rigid :p people and society get creative when things are difficult,.Would be else a boring place

Thanks, but I consider myself more of a bird of prey than a scavenger.

They’ll have thousands of members in no time. Hopefully, some of them will play!
Maybe they’ll have an active Xbox contingent too. Wouldn’t that be swell?

Rebecca HailHow's Findja doing this time of the year?
Maybe it needs some vultures to pick it over?

And the ones who stick their heads out of their hidey-holes.

I consider it a community service to allow folk to utilise EVERY part of the game. They can then choose which is their preferred style.

EdwardoAct of gross stupidity!!!!I have taken someone 21KLy out of the bubble, made it halfway back, and one morning...awoke to a sun and pieces of my ship floating. I have flown into stars twice now and won't play past a certain point of tiredness. I had like 40 planets I was going to get credit for naming and all the scan data.....it hurt. Feel your pain, brother. Keep flying onward! o7
I was playing last night and was getting tired. I must have dozed off as I clicked launch to leave a planetary base. I woke up just in time to see my A rated Cutter explode and ended up with a 38M credit insurance bill, two 100K plus fines and the loss of rep with two of my allied factions! I also had almost a million in bounty vouchers that have disappeared in to the ether.
Dozing off whilst pad loitering is NOT a good idea - that’s going to take a few delivery missions (or some skimmer missions) to get all those credits back - oh well, at least it wasn’t real money.
On the bright side, I have now found out that the insurance claim still preserves all of your materials AND my engineered enhancements - been collecting materials for ages.

Oh, absolutely! It's a waste of opportunity otherwise - even if only to find out that there's a thing about the game you do not like doing.
I was referring to the speed with which Stryker swooped. From initial contact to Wing Membership in under 2 hours?! That's a Master of Arts in Hospitality, right there. Like Uber, but for "dirty deeds, done dirt cheap". Duly impressed, not intending to mock.
