    What is your current fleet?

    It was a response to "why does a person have copies of the big/expensive ships" I gave one reason why someone MIGHT do something like that. Not saying they are, just giving one reason.

    What is your current fleet?

    What is an SH? What is a BMM? A SH is a Super Hornet F7C-M A 2 person fighter that is based on the Hornet design. Tougher and with more firepower. Basically a bigger, badder, meaner Hornet A BMM is the Banu Merchantman (Merchantman if you are looking in the store) It's an...interesting...

    What is your current fleet?

    I do not support, condone, or endorse the use of gray markets. While I believe they were once legit (but mostly against the TOS) back in the early days of Ultima Online and EverQuest, gold farmers and account hackers have taken over enough of the market to make me suspicious of any person...

    1 cap vs 10 sub-cap

    I would look on it more as a function of people involved (crew capacity) vs just ships. It would also matter which ships (as has already been mentioned). Ten Polarises would probably kill the Idris and maybe a Javelin. (no, I don't consider the Polaris to be a cap ship, and neither does CIG at...

    Buying and swapping and LTI questions

    Remember, when you buy something like the 85X and upgrade, you just upgrade the ship. The insurance, the extras, the hanger that are associated with the other ship you are upgrading to do not come with. So, for something like the 85x that does not have a hanger associated with it, you won't...

    Political Rants and other Butt-hurtness posts

    Preface - I did not vote for either of the major parties for President. I did vote. My state went for Secretary Clinton. These are my OPINIONS, they do not reflect any company I work for or people I associate with.

    Connie Phoenix

    I think something changed, because when I looked yesterday, it was the industrial hanger, now it's the Revel and York...so I have a direct upgrade from 3 year to 4 year insurance....done deal!

    Connie Phoenix

    All, I have a connie phoenix from the previous anniversary sale, but I am not sure if it's better to upgrade or not this year. Last year, it had 3 year insurance, plus a revel and york hanger. This year, it's 4 year insurance. Now, 48 month insurance is pretty close to lifetime based on...

    The Grand Tour

    Not sure how many petrolheads (motorheads, gearheads, car nuts, etc) we have out there, but if you enjoyed the previous generation of Top Gear and can't stand Mr. Shouty and Mr. No Emotion, take a look at the Grand Tour. It's only available through Amazon Prime Video, but the first episode was...

    Think I'm done with TS' Discord for now

    I have run into my share of jerks on the internet, and honestly, I've run into a (just 1) rude person here on Discord as well. Just ignore them/block them. They can run their mouth or keyboard and you don't have to listen to it or see it. I would just encourage you to give the person a...

    Esperia Prowler LTI $425

    will look, but unless it's freaking fantastic, is bigger than a carrack, hauls around 20 troops plus ship's crew, a med bay, 2 snub fighters, 3 argos, has enough weapons to melt a small planet, plus the armor to stand up to it, that is WAY to freaking much for a troop transport/boarding craft...

    TEST Squadron History, Philosophy and Future, now in easy to take powder form

    that's what alphas and betas are for...breaking stuff in new and different ways...then writing it up and tell everyone else (ok, the Devs) just how you managed to get into your warden's pilot seat while doing an EVA...shouldn't be possible since the warden has windows, not a canopy, but you can...

    Recently watched movie

    I saw it in 2D. I did not feel like I missed anything by not seeing it in 3D. I thought the story was pretty good and they chose decent actors for it. I certainly liked it better than some (cough cough DC) movies I have seen recently.... Used to be you bought Marvel for the art and DC for...

    Recently watched movie

    I liked Dr. Strange. Going to get this one on Blu-ray (but then, I get a lot on disc) Lots of great lines in here "What was in that tea?" "Tea...and a little honey."

    Super Hornet Super Sale - plus for subscribers: discounted Starfarer!

    The problem with a huge concept sale that gives you huge numbers is that people need time to recharge. 750 bucks is a TON of money. That means anyone who bought it, even the "whales" will be thinking very hard about buying anything else anytime soon. Also, most ships have been out there long...

    Some Xplor Drama (also "TEST not good for the community as a whole")

    ROFLMAO. This was just too funny. Thanks all for the great laugh today!!! Drama is overrated, which is why I love Test, Nobody takes themselves too seriously. Guilds are like golf...if you take it too seriously, you are going to ruin your fun. Also, if you can't laugh at yourself, you are...

    What is your current fleet?

    Actually, it gives people who want to hack accounts a target. You know there is a person in an org with X many ships worth Y many dollars. Which do you spend a lot of time cracking? The person where Y is the greatest value. Unfortunately, people share what they really shouldn't. I am...

    Do we have time to watch one more?

    yeah...again, campy, but FUN. BSG 2003 took itself WAY too seriously...

    Do we have time to watch one more?

    eh, doesn't match the campiness of the 70s version and it focuses too much on interpersonal conflict (big in the 2000s) For those that miss the political element, I think you can probably just watch Designated Survivor which started on this season (ABC I believe), as the first few episodes seem...
