So that is why nobody wants to play without that setting, LMAO! I was thinking it would be good to counter the move delay if you wanted to warp out, if you wanted to Xport into a offensive ship and attack them back, or if you want to just completely Xport to another sector for the time being. But docking also takes a turn so it is kinda one in the same.

LOL Prom, true! Alot my suggestions are only theory at this point so I can't very easily test those, I am more then willing to check things out though. As long as something good comes out of even a bad test then a posistive has been gained, even if it is small in the overall spectrum of things.

SD, for a minute you had me thinking I was running for office! Geez, I had thought I missed something, Rexx for President LMAO. [;)]

Let me introduce myself. I am the president and founder of the Anti Rexcrow Association. In the text that follows, I will explain why stopping Rexcrow is fundamental to the survival of our society. I would like to start by discussing Rexcrow's perorations, mainly because they scare me. The thing I'm the most frightened about is that I believe I have finally figured out what makes people like Rexcrow make excessive use of foul language. It appears to be a combination of an overactive mind, lack of common sense, assurance of one's own moral propriety, and a total lack of exposure to the real world. Woe to the inhumane saboteurs who divert attention from Rexcrow's unprovoked aggression!
Rexcrow's vaporings are more than just disgusting. They're a revolt against nature. Have you ever had a bad dream about Rexcrow trying to represent a threat to all the people in the area, indeed, possibly the world? Well, I have news for you. That wasn't a dream; it was real. What Rexcrow doesn't realize is that if its refrains get any more hateful, I expect they'll grow legs and attack me in my sleep.
The question, therefore, must not be, "Is Rexcrow so socially inept as to think that this can go on forever?", but rather, "What is it about our society that makes sexist, dodgy wonks like Rexcrow desire to attack the critical realism and impassive objectivity that are the central epistemological foundations of the scientific worldview?". The latter question is the better one to ask, because it is terrified that there might be an absolute reality outside itself, a reality that is what it is, regardless of its wishes, theories, hopes, daydreams, or decrees. Does anybody else feel the way I do, or am I alone in my disgust with Rexcrow?

Heh,

I did read though the whole thread now and I laughed my Butt off the whole way though the people in my office were staring at me I was laughing so hard at some of the stuff that was posted over the weekend on this thread.

The above is just another random complaint I have with Rexcrow.

Sadly, I must admit that it is true I am a dodgy wonk! I love that one! Man, I gotta go change my Jockies now! Darn it. hehee

Mr. Speed Demon has recently made a number of people very angry, including me. However, as anger serves no function in a successful rebuttal, I will simply state objectively that Mr. Speed Demon turns his back on our most heartfelt pleas for mercy. So, without further ado, I present you with this all-important piece of information: Mr. Speed Demon speaks like a true defender of the status quo -- a status quo, we should not forget, that enables him to hamstring our efforts to rub his nose in his own hypocrisy. He has it all wrong; he is entirely gung-ho about absenteeism because he lacks more pressing soapbox issues. Unfortunately, I can already see the response to this letter. Someone, possibly Mr. Speed Demon himself or one of his spokesmen, will write a libidinous piece about how utterly slatternly I am. If that's the case, then so be it. What I just wrote sorely needed to be written.

This thing Rocks...and it's so true and to the point

Seldom does an event take place which is such an outrage that the silent majority stands up and demands action. But the silent majority is currently demanding that something be done about Mr. Harley "K3" Nuss, Esq.. In the rest of this letter, I will use history and science (in the Hegelian sense) to prove that Mr. Nuss's complaints are based on biased statistics and faulty logic, which, in turn, invalidate the conclusions he draws from them. The following theorem may therefore be established as an eternally valid truth: There may be nothing we can do to prevent him from making good on his word to dissolve the bonds that join individuals to their natural communities. When we compare this disturbing conclusion to the comforting picture purveyed by his agents provocateurs, we experience psychological stress or "cognitive dissonance". Our only recourse is to reinforce what is best in people.

Mr. Nuss claims that hateful, nit-picky ignoramuses make the best scout leaders and schoolteachers. I, however, feel that that's a load of crud. Yes, not everyone agrees with him, but he wants us to emulate the White Queen from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, who strives to believe "as many as six impossible things before breakfast". Then again, even the White Queen would have trouble believing that Mr. Nuss's words epitomize wholesome family entertainment. I prefer to believe things that my experience tells me are true, such as that it's irrelevant that my allegations are 100% true. Mr. Nuss distrusts my information and arguments and will forever maintain his current opinions. Thus, in summing up, we can establish the following: 1) I find it most unfortunate that this letter had to be written, and 2) I'm not actually demanding revenge.


heh, that is fun

My duty to you, dear reader, constrains me to the disagreeable and almost painful task of giving you a significant amount of information that you may be unwilling to accept. Perhaps before going on, I should describe Mr. Lets Drink Coke to you. Mr. Coke is officious, tasteless, and deceitful. Furthermore, he yearns to transmogrify society's petty gripes and irrational fears into "issues" to be catered to. His lapdogs say that nothing would help society more than for them to slow scientific progress. Sorry, I don't buy that. To be sure, he is not on my Christmas-card list, but his ideological colors may have changed over the years. Nevertheless, Mr. Coke's core principle has remained the same: to force square pegs into round holes. If you don't believe me, then note that Mr. Coke parrots whatever ideas are fashionable at the moment. When the fashions change, his ideas will change instantly, like a weather***. Okay, I've written enough for one letter, so let me just finish by saying that Mr. Lets Drink Coke really needs to lighten up.

This thread is getting really "heavy" doc ... roflmao [back to the futre] snicker

Parts of what follows below were actually painful to write. However, because of the ongoing misinformation campaigns launched by Mr. Let's Drink Coke and his subalterns, I feel it is my duty to write this. Let me preface my discussion by quickly reasserting a familiar theme of my previous letters: Mr. Let's Drink Coke's indelicate, rummy game of chess -- the inane chess of Trotskyism -- has continued for far too long. It's time to checkmate this unsympathetic vendor of totalitarianism and show him that his conclusions are rife with contradictions and difficulties; they're totally poxy, meet no objective criteria, and are unsuited for a supposedly educated population. And as if that weren't enough, his expostulations are an abomination. Now, I could go off on that point alone, but he is absolutely determined to believe that character development is not a matter of "strength through adversity" but rather, "entitlement through victimization", and he's not about to let facts or reason get in his way. In spite of all Mr. Let's Drink Coke has done, I must admit I really like the guy. No, just kidding. Will someone please explain to me what it is in our lives that can possibly make someone incite young people to copulate early, often, and indiscriminately? Because I certainly have no idea. Okay, this letter has become much too long so I'll just jump right to the punchline: Compassion and moral principle are not the main motives for Mr. Let's Drink Coke's actions.

Hey Cool I like this thing, No offense Coke, just testing it!!!
It really Rocks!!!

While Dr Evil needs no introduction, I do want to state that the consequences of Evil's brutish intimations, particularly from a moral point of view, are not favorable. For complete details, I refer you to my forthcoming book on the subject. I shall here mention only a few random items that may be new or especially interesting to you. For instance, I find that I am embarrassed. Embarrassed that some people just don't realize that I'll tell you what we need to do about all the craziness Evil is mongering. We need to go placidly amid the noise and haste. Although his overt wowserism has declined, a covert form still survives and may be an important factor in fueling a tendency and/or desire to create a foul world of guilt and shame. Will I allow Evil to revile everything in the most obscene terms and drag it into the filth of the basest possible outlook? As long as there is breath in my earthly body, I assure you I will not. What I will do, however, is inform as many people as possible that I wouldn't judge Evil's stooges too harshly. They're just cannon fodder for Evil's plot to spit in the face of propriety. The only way out of Dr Evil's rat maze is to get him off our backs. It's that simple.

OMG....choke.......this is great fun........I'm gonna mail the Prime Minister a compliant ROFL

alright, my head hurts again damnit... this is tradewars, not legal-aid battlefield 1942.....


get off your asses and killsomething

my 2 cents
graz

That's it Vulcan, those be fighting words. It's time for a woopin, what server are you hiding on so I can come in there introduce your butt to my size 13 boot.

=) Didn't need no complaint maker for that <g> That is an awesome program I have to say, I wish I knew of it before hand, I can think of a few nasty breakups I had a long time ago where that would have been fun to use. <g>

At times, we all have an axe to grind. Currently, I'm grinding my axe in regards to Grazhoppa's rantings. I guess I should start by saying that some flagitious stumblebums are actually considering helping Grazhoppa use paid informants and provocateurs to let us know exactly what our attitudes should be towards various types of people and behavior. How quickly such people forget that they were lied to, made fun of, and ridiculed by Grazhoppa on numerous occasions. It must be nice to live in his little world, where the sun shines, the birds chirp merrily, and reality never rears its ugly head, and everyone with half a brain understands that. Grazhoppa's new definition of "honorificabilitudinity" is in disagreement with his pushy obloquies, but that's really beside the point. Experience should probably indicate that Grazhoppa likes to blacklist his enemies as Traitors. [:D] Such activity can flourish only in the dark, however. If you drag it into the open, Grazhoppa and his adulators will run for cover, like roaches in a dirty kitchen when the light is turned on suddenly during the night. That's why we must make some changes here. We live in voluble times. And that's why I say to you: Have courage. Be honest. And direct our efforts toward clearly defined goals and measure progress toward those goals as frequently and as objectively as possible. That's the patriotic thing to do, and that's the right thing to do.
