    Griefing from an org you affiliate with? Drop the org or get banned from TEST.

    Well said. I don't see another way to deal with this and as one who has shamelessly joked about the ban button, I want to be certain everyone understands, I am in complete support of Toys' take on this issue. I don't think I get a vote, and I won't drop a note on subjects if we ever disagree...

    Hurricane Florence and the US East Coast

    Here in NJ we've had almost a week of rain and it's supposed to continue at least until Friday. If Florence comes up here we're gonna go underwater regardless of whatever the winds are. Is pretty serious. They still don't know what the track will be past Thursday, but someone is gonna get...

    It finally happened! One of the random cables in my junk drawer was used!

    When mine would no longer fit in a drawer, I filled a large gym bag with them, which proved much handier since I could take them to whatever I was working on. Then someone stole the bag. So now I guess I'm truly "wireless".

    TEST Squadron selected to represent at Citizencon 2018 with a booth.

    If you're going to man a booth, can you roll in a keg and give away free beer? We see folks give away ships worth more than a keg and if you really want peeps to know what we're all about, why not give away beer? Just the word of such a stunt would be worth the cost, as rumor of our might and...

    Where do we set up for 3.3

    What are the travel times between Hurston and Crusader in various ships? Has anyone else seen their sig graphics go Gigantor on them? I like it but it is as bit much.

    ISS Leak

    I heard they did find him. Once. Now turns out no one will ever find him again.

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    No! And FYI, I have lots of friends who are Millennials. I date Millennials and hope one day to marry one, and have way too many kids. However, I also know they're causing great consternation with the things that make them so unique. I know very experienced, very adroit people of position...

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    I will respectfully disagree. Live access is a nice gift for those who choose to pay, but there is nothing there you can't get for free within a couple days. Transparency has no logical connection with urgency that I can see. What we should be focused on is the fact CIG is paying a...

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    Can't argue with any of that. You're right. CR can do better, and I'm sure he'll try. But hey, we're talking about whether a fan waits a day or three or five to see the stuff for free on YouTube. This is not the crisis type situation it was portrayed as. I think honestly, it is more a...

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    Many great points here, and certainly there's no case to be made CIG is godlike in its ability to cope. I would like to address just one of the excellent points above however. Where Frad writes: "How many times do they make changes and only inform the community after the fact"? I think it is...

    Sad news to report: CosmicTrader's girlfriend has passed away

    So sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences.

    Here we go again: Mercury vs. Cutlass vs. Terrapin

    I haven't flown anything. I don't own a gaming machine right now. I am just curious about the complaints. I was disappointed they took the single S5 mount off the chin, but the speed, rotation and maneuverability are much higher than expected, and the armor is pretty tough as is. View...

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    I think you're presuming an awful lot here. In his place, I would never have divined that the millennial masses would so erupt in tawdry, adolescent whining. Since this took CR by surprise, he did just what any good leader should do: took responsibility for this himself, and applied what seems...

    Here we go again: Mercury vs. Cutlass vs. Terrapin

    I saw a vid where it appeared pretty quick given the original expectation. It's actually faster than the Mercury. Definitely undergunned and no missiles. I thought it has "double armor" so that you could go sans shields on those covert spy missions. So what's with that?

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    I think it concerns the nature of crowdfunding more than anything else. To build the game CIG not only needs a huge chunk of cash, but a continuing revenue stream, and if the fans as a mob make the decision to walk away, the project would go tits up. CIG therefore makes every effort to involve...

    lame-ass 27" monitors. . .puh!

    No, there is a shower head built into the robotic arm, adjustable from trickle to firehose, but with no off switch.

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    Yeah, but look at CR's explanation. They're adding six figures for a pro vid team, just so people can have higher quality in the YouTube vids, which is where most people see it. I'm satisfied. This isn't for making money. It's for providing the best value to the patrons. CR still rocks in...

    CIG wants $20 for the Citizencon livestream

    I would be upset if they were charging people to see CitCon, but they're not. They're charging only to see it live. I think that is fair. They don't need to broadcast live. That diminishes the value of the actual seats. If you want to view live, pay $20. No big deal. If you don't have the...

    Here we go again: Mercury vs. Cutlass vs. Terrapin

    I would melt the Terrapin to buy the Mercury, and then if you like switch it back. IIUC the purchasing dynamic, by the time either of them enter game you'll be earning cash in game and can buy whatever you like. Keep what you can fly now, and keep some to buy stuff as it comes on Concept if...
