So the Chronos System is our home?

[Devastat3]

SQUADRON 999 /TESTES reserved for people whose main org is TEST, and outlaws who don't want to damage TEST's standing

I've wondered how this is going to be handled in game if the actions of a few will indeed "hurt" some sort of Org standing/reputation..

Me too. If we have an affiliate org for piracy, we're still damaging TEST's rep when we do bad stuff. Not that I really care, but it is something to think about. The alternative is to have an alt account in an alt org. But that's a lot to ask of some people. And quite bothersome.

My thought is to wait and see how the mechanic develops in game. There may be no need for these extreme measures.

My thoughts are I really doubt they will let the actions of a few impact the whole of an org, other than maybe reputations in the truest sense of the word not a system (opinions). But I also think an org our size having a mixed reputation could be a good thing not just bad. I mean we want people to wonder what they will encounter when dealing with us not just assume or know, this allows us to have our own personal reps and not be tied to the orgs rep :)

I totally agree, we won't be making any rules before they're needed, we are the anti-ADI

but if CIG's decisions make having good citizens and outlaws in one org a problem, TESTES can be a haven with the same care-free cultural values we all appreciate here

Maybe, in the live version later, you just open the outter doors of your hangar - and find yourself looking onto Chronos? Who knows?

My solution: we should invite the Vanduul for a big, planet wide party, get all drunk and have fun. Being then best friends, we all together rush through the Galaxy, raiding every bloody system and planet who don't want to or is not able to party with us - and finally taking over the control of the 'verse.

So, therefore I suggest: problem solved, thread can be closed ;)
Cheers
Sam ^^

I agree, why can't we just all get along!

So... let's say I see an ADI Idris limping and realize the crews dead and one [CERTIFIED] ensign is left alive trying to get his ship back to ADI CENTRAL COMMAND. And I eva over and shoot him and call in TEST to help repair my new ship.... am I a pirate?

If you offer him a beer and a ride home first then no you are not a pirate ;)

What if the beer has iocane powder in it and I'm immune?

 

[Devastat3]

Its not piracy if a parrot is not involved.

Then if I was your lawyer I would advise you to call it a tragic accident ;)

I
We need a TEST banner with a parrot!
Also, 69th reply! Congrats!

Dear ADI high command.
Recently I arrived in my Cutlass to help oneof your ensigns after the tragic death of the entire crew. Unfortunately the resuscitation beer I gave him appears to have been laced with alcohol, and bullets, to which he was tragically allergic to.

Dear ADI,

It is my saddest duty to inform you that we(ie TEST Squadron) have encountered an un[CERTIFIED] Idris operating in our sovereign space. However you allowed this to happen is unknown but will be investigated and the rites of discovery observed. Despite this we have now shifted our posture to a more aggressive stance due to this unprovoked flyby. The next ship that wanders into our space will surely be TESTed to the extreme as we interrogate the pilots and crew.

Sincerely,
TEST Squadron

Good point. And I find myself in agreement. I do plan on playing a character of questionable repute. A man who lives in the grey. Mwaaahaha.

I totally agree, we won't be making any rules before they're needed, we are the anti-ADI

Hehehe. So anti that we cancel out each others existence. Good thing we are many. And awesome.

Nope. You're an opportunist.

If you offer him a beer and a ride home first then no you are not a pirate ;)

Offer the beer. Don't give it. That'd be a waste. Party foul. Or in the case of @mromutt, Party Fowl.

Escalation of beer force.

This needs to be placed at all known jump point entrances leading to Chronos.

As I understand it, there is a recall for the Irdis' airlocks. They intermittently malfunction... usually when a ensign with a red shirt is by them.

Thats a feature not a bug

If Chronos is our home, then I suggest Nyx for parties. I must assume that the map guy wrote it in wrong, but I am fairly certain it says that it contains the Kegger belt (cause Keeger sounded too stupid when I had someone read it to me). I'm already planning to summer there.

I guess you have to shoot him just a little bit, either that, or share a drink with a dead man.

We need a proper Space Station for our HQ.
