Mobanditoman these Merits in Powerplay cost a lot of credits spent over 6 mill to get to 1500 merits so i could get to 750. Hope the weapons dont cost a bunch


You probably didn't need to do that much. The PP cycle looks at your merits, then determines rank, then decays the merits. Going into the cycle with 750 is enough for level 3.

James HussarEek! The Fuel Rats are in trouble?!

Great fun helping out there the past days and meeting some really good people.
- NOTE -
The gankers have arrived and begun this evening. In the zones and blockading the station.
A good man lost his Corvette  and the 8.5 mil 90=count MM ticket he worked so long and hard on with the return to station interdiction. Spendy amusements. Myself I just lost a Krait, but my crew pilot was off ship which was lucky.


I lost my Challenger twice so far, but reckon I broke even. Don't care if I didn't though. Those Rats saved me BIG time a year and a half ago and I owe them BIG time. They don't like to see it that way, which is even more reason to fight for them.

I'm doing my bit for the Rats today, no good at all at combat so doing passenger / missions runs for them. I know it isn't much but the best I can do.

Their influence looks very good today

Unfortunately, nothing but combat actions will effect their influence during a war.

I saw some of your folks out there! That was great to see. We did our best to run CAP for folks out there. I don't think I've ever seen a system so busy with Commanders.

Says a lot about the Fuel Rats, doesn't it?

Hi guys,
How do I get my powerplay allegiance and rank to show on my Cmdr page?

DeoVindiceHi guys,

It is already shown? I can see that you are Hudson-pledged with rank 2. If you want a real-time powerplay rank update, use one of the tools listed here

Cotoone85anyone around colonia wanna wing up and do some trade/bounty/mining anything to make creds really
. Are you making Colonia your home or are you just visiting? My home station is Colonia Dream, in the Ratraii system, but I'm currently in my "summer home" in the Arexe system (home of The Silverbacks). Once I'm finished plugging in my Guardian modules and last bit of engineering (I'm almost done) I'll be heading back to Colonia.

I was doing my small part to help in a moderately-engineered Cobra. And I'm totally with you on seeing SO many commanders helping out. Red blips barely had a chance to wake in before being picked apart. It was like watching piranha on a piece of meat.

Fuel Rats rock! I put about 1.5 million credits of bounties for them yesterday. Looks like they’re way in the lead, but I can do more tomorrow if they need. I’ve been lucky enough to not need their services yet (although it’s been close a few times), I really appreciate knowing those folks are out there.

Can anyone help?
Not even sure if this is the right place for this but here goes.
Iv used Inara and the ED market connector for a while, great, no problems worked a charm. Authenticated windows (very late i know), suddenly ED Market Connector no longer works, says permission is denied wont even load. have uninstaled and reinstalled same message. Been online, asked in forums, tried sending the EDMC guys an email but nothing. You guys are my last stop before formatting. Does anybody have any suggestions for me?
As you can tell, I use computers alot but understand how they work very little.

Mobanditowho can fly with flight assist off


FA off has advantages and disadvantages. I believe you'll find many pilots fly like me, toggling it frequently in combat, but leaving FA on during normal flight.

Most don't. It just makes the main truster and the trim thrusters run independently.
Usually on a press-and-hold (instead of toggle) binding to use in tight combat and quick change in vectoring.

I would hold off on re-formatting.
If it's an identity problem or a licence number out of place, re-formatting won't help.
Wait for assistance and don't be in a hurry to fix it.
Is it possible you have changed your credentials in any app or program that links to it?
Something with the  Beta release this morning?
FD licence in place?
Tried generating a new API key?
