Unread post thereverend.org and alien races
some people have asked about the aliens on my server. yes, i intentionally removed all alien races from all of the edits. i can't stand alien races for the following reasons:

1. they increase the resource burden on the server
2. they create game mail, often excessive game mail
3. they can be exploited for easy cash
4. they sometimes crap out and max the cpu
5. they distract from real competition

the only reason i can see for having them is when they provide special ships. in that case, i'd prefer to enable the ship at the stardock for a high purchase price. if there is a game that meets this criteria on my server, let me know and i'll mod the edit to this effect.

Would be good information to include in the game bang since some players are alien hunters/cashers.

Sysbot would be perfect for disseminating this information to players as they create characters in the game :mrgreen:

good point - my apologies to anyone who invested in a game without realizing this. in the future, hit # to see what alien races are on the move.
