    After reading a bunch of "reasoning" on Spectrum, I have come to the following conclusion. CIG intends to make ground vehicles more useless than they already are. Ground vehicles are just a cheap gateway drug to get you to open your wallet further and upgrade them. The only time I have ever...

    My Dragonfly is supposed to have an actual cargo capacity of up to 1SCU. A quarter SCU in each saddlebag and a half SCU in place of a passenger. That, the Snub capability, plus the shield, to make it combat capable, are the reasons I own one. Cargo...

    They took away my Dragonfly's Cargo AND Shields now? Then what's the point of even having one?

    Luminalia 2593!

    I got it figured out. Thanks. At 50 per box, it's definitely not worth the time.

    I can't figure out where and how to sell them. I seem to remember you used to sell them at certain, non-TDD, commodities terminals, but I can't make that work. Please help.

    I've always made mudslides with milk, vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup to go with the Kahlua, Bailey's and Vodka. The chocolate drizzled on the interior of the glass, then top with whipcream and a chocolate drizzle. Interesting option. Are you skipping the blender? For a Long Island, one...

    Does the store the firearm on your ship still work? How about store the armor on a Mule?

    When the US Army taught me Russian, our instructors insisted we learn how to drink Vodka. :) After that I prefer Stoli. :) But since vodka doesn't really have any flavor, as long as it doesn't curdle Baileys, it will work. :)

    Hey lets have a fleet post eh?

    Stepping stone to another ship, spreading them out to use them in multiple systems, concern about claim timers and you just like the way they look would have all been acceptable answers. LOL. Looking at my fleet I have both an Eclipse and a Retaliator. Why? I like the way they look. :) Though...

    Hey lets have a fleet post eh?

    That does depend on your definition of "honest trading," how you intend to acquire your "trade goods" and being able to defend said goods. :) Before the recent changes, so the Hull-C works, the cargo ships that were most efficeint to load were in the 60 to 120 CF range. Now, I haven't done any...

    Interesting fleet. I like it. What are your plans for how to use it?

    Hey lets have a fleet post eh?

    Interesting. You have 4 freighters in the same general capacity range. They're all the right size for carrying a ROC, or unloading the Vulture or Prospector, or resupplying the Vulcan, but is there a particular reason for four of them?

    Oh, and since tomorrow is December 7th, to properly commerate Pearl Harbour Day, it is tradition to get bombed. B-52's (above) or Kamakazies are the recommended drinks. Kamikaze (you can make it by the pitcher). One part Vodka One part triple sec One part lime juice Shaken and served in...

    If you're going to layer a drink, do it right. Kahula, Baileys, Grand Marnier, and a little bit of overproof rum. Use a bar spoon to layer (in that order), then right before you serve it you light the rum. A B-52 shot down in flames. (No I did not take the pic or set up this image.)

    Rum drinks: My take on the Rum Runner Modify based on the size of your serving/glass but don't change the proportions. This is roughly a 15 ounce Hurricane glass. Halve the ingredients and it is a Utah legal cocktail. One shot Dark Rum One shot Light Rum One shot Pineapple juice 3/4 shot Lime...

    How should CIG deal with toxic players and harassment outside of the game?

    No, I read it. The example isn't valid. Overservice of a beverage is defined in, most, US localities, in the law. Usually creating a civil liability. Getting the establishment sued or charged due to overservice can also cause a person bared from entry. A game has no such equivalent. Causing...

    How should CIG deal with toxic players and harassment outside of the game?

    Overserving someone in a bar is different than hosting a game. Even so, that is still a matter for law enforcement. The game didn't cause the behavior, the person did. The game is just an excuse. Are you recommending changing the TOS?
