Id have to say I agree with Orion the most. (Just 2 weeks ago I was on memphistw.org and I got 3 people IN A ROW to CBY for 1mill cash)
Poor suckers!
And, when it comes to you Aesoo...
I feel i've learned quite a bit on your playing style and how you do things. I can easily say you are not a newbie, but you do need to work on things a lot more... #1, knowing when NOT to talk! [:D]
Take it slow and it will come to you... After all, it is just a game!

To me a newb does not yet know how to play the game right yet.

They trip over toll figs, and get podded on a toll fig. They do not know what paired ports are and try to trade between ports a long distance from each other. They get podded easily by not scanning before moving into a sector. They try to attack people in FedSpace and then try to attack Zyran when he appears and they get podded. They try to attack a port and get podded. They do not know how to use the FedComm and wonder why people are talking to them and how they can talk back. They always visit that bar at the Star Dock thinking that it is the bank. They ask the Grimmy Old Trader in the Tavern if he has any cool stuff for them to trade, and what his IM or email is. They don't know the menus yet, so they bang on a bunch of keys until they get what they want. They fall for the old "Type CBY for a new ship" joke that the other players play on them. They use Window's Telnet to play and wonder why other people are moving so fast or why they cannot see the ANSI graphics right.

That is the definition of a real newbie. Not even knowing what a port is used for, or how to play the game. Compared to some of the experts, most of us are newbies.

Just my two cents worth.

Heat Sink, I see your style of play hasn't changed too much -- talking someone into CBY -- oh the challenge there - glad you were up to it. Much like booting all of your corpies after the work was done in the game, and leaving them in sectors with corp planets and the IC set because you thought "it would be funny". What a CEO and what a person who I would put any value on what they say or think.

You are, by FAR, the (edited to make others happy) dumbest person I've had to reply to.
That game you mentioned was a JOKE to begin with. My corp members were the same ones im with now. I've been with Moose for over 6 years and Sandman is a pretty Darn good friend of mine. We were all joking around and having FUN (this is a GAME). As CEO, I kicked them off corp to be funny, Sandman took all the planets. Moose was lost out in space (animals.. what can I say!?) We were all online and joking around, dont you dare try to talk **** about my style.
So... Before go opening your mouth and letting that BS fly, think twice. For you know nothing of what happends within my corp.

I can't believe you said "most dumbest." [:D]

As to your present corp that is true, however if you remember I was on your corp at memphistw.org - no message was sent, I came back into the game and was left in the sector as I mentioned - I was not online when your "joking" happened. This is a game and that is true, however dropping a corpie like that is uncalled for. The game is a lot of fun without a doubt and just a game - sad that there are individuals that feel that backstabbing a corpie is a part of the game and "fun". Facts speak for themselves, the fact is you did what you said, talked someone into CBY - cute, the fact is you booted me as a corpie in that game and did not even send a message to let me know what was going on. That was the first and last time I corped with you and actions speak far louder than words.

I'm sorry If you think you can join my corp and have a free ride and the title of a win if you do not work. I remember telling you after you logged in that if you were going to work, id let you rejoin, but you decided to join someone else. I'm sure everyone here knows that memphistw.org is a newbie server anyways. they all complain if you IG them or worse, pod them. (lol, go figure, thats where I met you!) i see the complaining carries over.. (hey, did you CBY not to long ago?) lol... Dont talk trash to me about morals and game ethics, im well known to be a good guy when the time is right, but sometimes you just have to be strick in order to get things done.
It was a mistake to even let you join us that 1 time, and now i've learned a lesson. Thanks a bunch!

Somehow I don't think joining people that you don't really know based on one person's recommendation is trying to get a free ride to a win. I did not know you or the others -- except Sandman so I took a chance. Sandman and I had played the previous game together and did very well, Aesoo joined us and really did a good job attacking some bases. As to the not working statement - I ran red for about 6 hours, made a few pods (and you are correct when you say people whined about that) and worked on the planets. Some of us have a life in that we have work, family and friends that take precedent over a game and if not being able to log in for a day is considered "not working" then I am guilty as charged. As far as your being "strick" as you put it, I thought you said you were having fun and it was a game. You stated that you were joking when you bounced the people from your corp so how does that equate to "not working? Also, you never said anything to me in our fedcom discussion about my "not working" only the "fun" aspect of bouncing people. I am glad that you have learned a lesson, so did I - know the people you are corping with.

I am stating fact in what you did as the CEO, you know it and I know it. What you wish to tell others is up to you. I truly wish you and your corp well in the future

Sorry for any misunderstandings...
Have a good one and good luck to you. (your a pretty good worker when your on, no doubt about that...)

Making you dizzy, hell, I thought that was your natural state of being...

The "newbie/oldie" designations are bs. Some oldtime players are useless, some newcomers are excellent.

The comptent newbies just need information to get up to speed. In receipt of which they do, and historically have, trashed the "old timers".

Okay genius, let's look at my name and then take a look at the lifestyles of the various felines in the world. The majority of which live a mostly nomadic lifestyle. Now if that's too much of a stretch for your little brain to wrap itself around maybe you should sit down and promise yourself not to touch the keyboard for at least a day a day. That way we won't see the limited scope of your imagination that you were trying to stretch by capitolizing cat in your post.

Face it, you have a problem. Anyone out there want to explain PEBKAC to him/her?

Your avatar may well be an Aslan from Traveller, they are cat people, look like cats but are humanoid and walk on two feet and are intelligent. Great warriors too, IIRC.

PEBKAC, Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair. Also known as the ID10T error.
