EpisparhKelton BlalockSo I bought the Type 9. Any strange/stupid build ideas for it? I'm currently collecting engineering materials to make the ship actually manageable in-flight.
The most stupid build I can propose is shieldless AX combat ship for fighting interceptors.
The 2nd one is building it for PvP combat and call it Gankers' bane.

Amata LireinHasn't that happened in that other game once before (EvE Online)? If I recall it correctly the response to it was that almost all of the Nullsec powers allied themselves (Even bitter RP rivals who usually represented the Amarr and the Minmatar who are normally in a constant state of war) to annihilate those guys and free the enslaved players. It was a massacre...
I think the group you're talking about still exists but I haven't had the pleasure of shooting them yet

Recently I earned the rank of Elite in Exploration and I'm interested in doing the same in Combat now. So, I'm searching for a CMDR who has an interesting build for the Dolphin, Orca or Beluga. I'm fully aware they aren't combat optimal but for the sake of my character I'm limiting my options so please consider this in any advice offered.

EpisparhI really do not know how someone can fall for this bait.
And surely if you fail for this a simple ship destruction or clear save is the right way to break the slavery chain.
Personally, I do not believe this actually happens.
A good reason to learn/play the game on your own for the first while until you understand things better rather than just blindly trusting people. IMO it is their own fault. No pity here.

I've read the article and to be honest I am a bit... I don't know how to put it, unsure how to comment on that even! But then again, stories like this make me VERY concerned because if some higher ups (i.e. influential activists or politicians) unrelated to the gaming world decide to take stuff into their hands - it may and will end bad for us, gamers. Truth be said however, behaviors like with this "labor camp" is something we all have a hard time deciding what to do with it - and even Frontier is very indecisive, at least according to the article. Sometimes it is very hard to distinguish cyber bullying from someone's in-character roleplay - what a lot of non-gamers or newbie gamers may not understand, like in a way D&D had been regarded as witchcraft due to major misunderstanding at the very principles of what D&D actually is.
The fact that procedure got minors involved paints a very negative picture for someone whose idea about the games is just that they are out there, but never bothered to go deep into that subject. Hell, there are even activities like creating a false image of a gamer as someone who is mentally unable to do anything IRL by TV Channels, because they lose viewers - and most of the viewers are usually the older or tech-deficient people. As for the big media, it is just fueling the grinds of very harmful image of gamers as "bad guys" what has happened ever since Mortal Kombat games, I guess.
However, one of the advantages of this world-wide plague we are in is that gaming is a bit more approachable subject and even elders seem to pick up that form of activity, turning out that it's not some mindless staring at the screen but form of activity that is a bit more engaging than watching 2134th season of Bold and Beauty.

Ich bin vor zwei Tagen ohne Zwischenfälle auf einem Planeten gelandet. Ja, ich leite Elite Dangerous Horizons.
Vielleicht haben Sie beim Start des Spiels Horizons nicht ausgewählt?
Das ist das einzige, woran ich denken kann.

Blunt-SoloKilo-5** CALL TO ACTION **
BRIEFING
Good evening cmdrs
It has been brought ti my attention that there are rogue cmdr out in the black recruiting new cmdr instructing them to build mining ships with a minimal jump range placing them upon fleet carriers and taking them 800ly from the player bubble and forcing them to mine void opal and sell them for 1/6 th of the market price. These new cmdr are being instructed to build mining ships with a jump range of 2ly before being placed on this factions fleet carrier and transported 800ly to a mining ring and with a jump range of only 2ly its impossable for these cmdr to escape the forced labour leaving them no option but to either work for this faction or self destruct. Although its not against the frontier guidelines its highly frowned upon and i for one will not tolerate the exploitation of new cmdr for the gain of a single faction via slavery
I am calling for combat hardened cmdr to join up with me to create a new action based squadron to help these new cmdr being exploited and to put an end to this new threat quickly those who wish to join contact me directly for further instruction
O7 cmdr. Fly safe
I love Elite ????
They are an xbox faction and you can narrow them down by knowing the history of Panzer Units in WW2. I will not call the scum out here.

I disagree whole heartedly. There are a ton of us out there that will help with no strings attatched so you dont have to spend hours on youtube figuring out how to trade or mine.

It is life, one should learn what information and who can trust.

I'm not saying everyone is a jerk, but there is really no excuse for not understanding something simple like jump range.
