Dudes and Dudettes.

@CrudeSasquatch has a couple ships. One is a package. They were both gifts. He has no backer standing. So . . does he need to buy a package? Or a ship?

Cheers.
I love you.

Hey guys!
I have a lot of ships that were gifted to me... and I want to know how to become an "official" backup person... you know.. like.. I spend all my money in high school on Chris Roberts games, but apparently having all the Wing Commanders and Privateers don't really change your "Star Citizen" status.
So I want to be "official" now....
I want to be "a citizen"...
I want the right to "have children"
and "squash the bugs"
but do I need to get "another package"
or do I just need to get 'a ship'

If i understand this correct.... he has a package and ships but they where all gifted?

I think you get the "title" backer when you financially support the game. By buying a ship or a package with your own money. However on the question to buy a ship or package i don't know.....

Buy beer instead!!

Simply - Just spend at least $5 in the Pledge store.
You can get posters, fish, anything.
$5 is the minimum Pledge to become a Backer.

We made a deal that I can spend 100$ ON HIS Credit card, and I'd get a ship worth the same amount, because that's what he spent. I managed to delay his decision (impulse) until I could get some information.
Don't get me wrong. i like Chris Roberts and his games
but I also like watching @Blind Owl 's kids graduate college....

So what's the cheapest shit in the galaxy (that's worth flying?) that I can buy?
Seriously...
I'm more than willing to fly my free Aurora into the sun, and then using my (not yet decided)_ spaceship_graphics not created yet_So glichey_wtf Chris Roberts_Alpaha,LOL to win my way to mastery!

So that being said.
I forget why I'm typing.

My kid has a college fund. You pay it. Every month. ;)

He has a Blue. Good all purpose ship. Thinking avenger or gladius for him. Something fun to fight in. Just my thoughts though.

There is no cheap shit but if you want a good general purpose ship under $100, may I recommend the 316P.
It has a Tractor beam on the nose (can be removed and a weapon added) and will be great for exploring in stystem. Also, can carry some cargo.
I have used mine and still do.
Just a suggestion.

OK. Slightly more soberer now. Wow. What a night in the 'verse.

OK, Cosmic, if I have gifted @CrudeSasquatch a ship, and he spends money his money to CCU it, will it give him backer status? I know you said any amount of money spent should do it, I just wanna be sure. He's got over 200 worth of ships, lol, but they're all gifted.

Thanks brother.

I, apparently, need a more generous brother. I love my Avenger Titan and would highly recommend it. It was also about all I can afford, so that helped in the decision.

I had more fun in the 'verse than ever last night. Thanks, guys, for hanging out so late. This is where I get to be this morning... needless to say, I have a lot of coffee.

Haha, it was a great time. Just made a thread about it.
Avenger Titan eh? I thought so too. Or maybe a Gladius.

Naw, he's just trying to get backer status period. He doesn't have it at all, as all his ships/packages were gifts. As he doesn't have backer status, he can't play in the PTU, just the PU. We'll buy a ship on his account today sometime, and he'll be good.

Or upgrade his Cutty Blue. I don't know if he likes it that much. But then, the Cutty IS getting redone. So many decisions. Haha.
