Nope, I've yet to see any of the TEST guys do anything like that. One of them tossed a few hundred million spacebucks at me the other day which is making it really hard for me to hate on them too. Having said that my fun per hour has decreased dramatically since arriving in Sendaya and that sucks. I just read that whole thread Hollow was talking about too and aside from not a soul actually directly answering his very poignant questions I only learned one thing. This isn't a deployment. This is a move. It's really got me wondering if leadership is in control or if someone else is pulling the strings.

You'd think people would be lining up to help him out. It's a shame they don't realise that those little newbies are going to get good and get good ships eventually and when they do they ain't exactly going to feel thankful toward them.

I have no clue if that's the case, I don't know how much sov upkeep is.

I've taken up some of the advice here and decided to make a character completely separate from the prencleeve identity. This game gets pretty difficult when you're blacklisted and vilified from half the alliances.

Hate to break out the schadenfreude but what did BNI line members expect when they got in to bed with an alliance that is the dictionary definition of perfidious? Were it me I'd grab what few people that were interested in leaving with me and go back to Barle and carry on doing my own thing. Failing that I can't help but imagine that you and other unhappy newbies would be better served by joining RvB, ENL-A or Waffles or whatever they're called.

Ashcans posted:If BNI had said 'poo poo, we can't win this anyway, we're putting this guy up to bat and we'll pay for all your losses for laughs' then it might have been pretty cool. But doing it when you're apparently not even handing out frigates? That's just terrible. It takes like 9 clicks to assemble, fit and rename a frigate. This week I've done ~243 frigates in QPO, Brave's staging system would probably need a lot more than that per week. Think of the carpal tunnel syndrome!

If I recall correctly, I'm pretty sure the atmosphere was pretty anti-0.0 for the exact reasons people are getting angry now. Tusen Takk posted:Wait you're prencleeve?

When I came back to the game I ended up just dumping my salvage into buys in deklein or reprocessing with my lovely skills; I did fine and I suspect this won't cripple our newbies too badly. It might suck for people in worse space trying to eke it out though. To be honest, if I was a newbie now my plan would be to do exploration while I trained into an interceptor and then just pvp with those continuously for profit.

I did my first Relic&Data sites last night. Also discovered two wormholes which led to nothing but sleeper rats which scared me off. Got ~4mil in blueprints/salvage. I think I'll have the skills to start small-scale ratting in my fresh VNI tonight

If i reregistered I would probably hop into a cloaky scanner ship and explore and poo poo. I haven't played in like 1.5 years and even though I have 40mil sp I reckon that I'd be geared for all the wrong things now that I haven't kept up with various nerfs and boosts and such. I would definitely avoid flying my carrier and dread that's for sure. That may be what burned me out in the first place.

Yeah, you are implying we line members had any idea we were getting in bed with anyone prior to the "welcome to Hero, We're going to Sendaya" SoTA. Maybe it's just me but I didn't have any idea.

I don't understand why HERO thinks there winning because there being dunked by all our squads, is this one of those "Made you deploy!" things? A question to the BNI people here, whats your alliance leaders rational for so many lost fleets? I can't imagine it's a good one.
