What if Jerome Walton made me a champion?

Was worried when some random guy PM'd me and tried to friend me. That dude who wanted a Gallitep mission found the Bijor missions and gave me a poo poo load of money. A pubbie who isn't terrible!? Who would've thought!

The STO mods are out of control, apparently he got banned for 2 weeks for realizing Dukat was right.

For shame.

When he does make his triumphant return to the forums you need to make sure to point out he did pay out more money than most pubbies will ever see since even the mods there were asking for screenshots of his assets. Then for added mind blowing make sure they know the money went to a filthy Dental even though the guy had no idea before handing over the EC.

Not an edit: I also made the list and I too don't even recall the last time I interacted with pubbies.

I talked to that guy yesterday. Not sure if anyone has heard of the troll guild "Flowers of Happiness" all the way back from EQ (Druk was an officer, I guess), but they got lots of early-mmo pubbie tears and posted them online. Some of it is pretty funny. I remember reading this like a decade ago: http://www.notaddicted.com/fansythefamous.php

Yea i know Flowers of Happiness. For example, they required you to make a poem when you applied. I think it was on SullonZek, i know for sure it was that pvp server where you had neutrals, evils and goodies all fighting eachother as hard locked race combinations. When i met one of them he was warping on top of me, using speed hacks and much other stuff. He killed me once doing that. I think they removed him from the guild because of that.

It's obtuse if you're used to something as user-friendly as Starcraft map editing was. At least, that's my opinion.

It's not hard at all. You can google up tutorials and poo poo if you get stuck on anything. The editor can be a bit lovely at times but it's not terribly obtuse if you're filling to use the premade interior maps. Custom interiors are needlessly annoying to make though.

Bugship promo, costume sale, and recent dil weekend haven't really helped no. But it's also pretty obvious the long term trend has been upwards, probably due to the giant crafting sink that idiots are blowing dilithium into.

And everyone is saving up Zen for T6 ships. Along with whatever else the expansion may bring.

Cannons/turrets on a ship with a base turn of 3. And not even any RCS consoles. No wonder he couldn't kill probes.

Now, now. The actual base turn rate is 6. Which, clearly, makes it a good idea.

It's not the worst that we've seen. Basic principles are mostly there. Hazard emitters would help. And of course dual cannons are sub-optimal but in a borg STF he should be able to handle loving probes. He is just a pubbie, he spent so much time and money it has to be good dammit! *expodes from gateway*

Log in with your STO account, replace NAME@HANDLE with the name of your pubbie. It's a barely functional piece of poo poo so it always takes me to my character list first, just choose your main and then it'll take you to the pubbie you threw in the URL.

I have literally just turned 50 and I am in a POS kitchen sink setup and I can handle probes and spheres in the borg STF.
