I consider a 3.0 hour ducking session a relatively light penalty considering I have wasted about 5.0 million credits due to extreme ineptitude and bad piloting.

I think we have been doing this wrong. I read you must use /acceptdock or something similar to allow another ship to dock at your ship. That is worth a try. I am also not sure if only small ships like fighters are allowed... it requires some testing.


I was just thinking it might be safer for Greg's trade runs if he docks with one of our capitsal ships and we flay him to where he needs to be? :-)

Yes we need to do some testing

Amen. Let us just hope you can make some money now Greg, just stick to the safe systems for now, until you have a better ship.

So, basically we do all the work and get nothing, while Greg profits? Yeah, great idea that one. He won't have to do anything at all, not even fly his ship - what's the point in that?

Well it’s not a massive departure from what I was doing last time. I was flying in formation with you so I didn’t have to do anything really. This allowed me to concentrate on drinking, allowing me to get absolutely arseholed and slice my finder open whilst trying to cook a pizza.

Well you can count me out of carting you all around the galaxy (if we can even do it). I will let Maxi-mouse do that. I mean, trading is boring enough, but that's essentially playing the game without actually PLAYING the game. I really don't see the point. At least when we travel in formation, you are doing something.

I wasn't suggesting we did it i just thought it was the only way he can safely transit Sirus :-).

No he can do his trading himself i think it would be better if he buys credits from you.  You know he is happier when he can throw money at it. 

Judging on his performance on Friday if he doesn't buy credits it will be a while till he can afford even a gunboat :-o

I think as long as Greg sticks to the safer routes for now, he will be fine. I mean, we did it, so I am sure Greg can.

Yes we did do he just has to stick to house space to begin with.

To honest even now my trader can't take much punishment and i tend to stick to safer routes.

If you just do that it will probably take you a few years to get any decent form of credits.

Did you read this post Greg (second paragraph)? We may be able to come to a mutually beneficial arrangement.

This is for building cloaking devices, from memory.

I did, but I don’t really understand how it would work. You would want to build a station but I would have to lug the parts about? Or am I barking up the wrong tree.

Eh?

No you melon. You can TRADE at our stations. Thus making yourself money, and giving us parts we need to construct stuff.
