Trust me, you've never met a troll like genka. Just check his wikipedia entry.
Anyways, this is a wonderful influx to the community. And while it's a given that you shouldn't alienate yerselves, do make sure that you fight together against the rest of us. VO needs more large-scale group battles, and as a ventrillo-cheating... uhm, sorry, ventrillo-USING [:-P] guild, you fellas can probably muster quite a force.
Just don't attack people like this here Shape, Martin and their peers in greater numbers. Not that it'd make a difference. They'd gun you down in tens, twenties or ones, all the same... ;-)

Indeed we will definitely be joining in with the rest of the community and heading down to "grey space" or whatever it is soon(TM). There are the usual gaming nutters that have no life and lots of time on their hands (like me, Cyb, Jnr) that are already gaining levels and whatnot and there are those that level up slowly.
Levels are clearly not the be-all and end-all in this game though which is how we (well at least I) like it. Skill is much more interesting than levels.
I'll probably be venturing down to grey-space in the next few days to see what's happening and (no doubt) have my arse handed to me on a silver platter with some petit-pois, sugar snap peas and baby carrots :)
Once a few more of us are at least semi-competent at being able to fly whilst smoking and drinking we'll really start engaging with everyone and hopefully jointly setting up some good RP.
We are mindful of the fact that we are the "new" people around here, so if we accidentally tread on someones toes, please let us know and we'll make the necessary adjustments.
We don't want to be in a "them" and "us" situation and hope to be part of the community as quickly as possible :)
See you all in space and may you kill or be killed with tears of laughter in your eyes!

ah Shape and Martin are the PVP experts then ?
Ill untie ceebee soon then and they can slap him about a bit .

Just wanted to clear up a single point for you, the physics mode IS always on. Flight assist mode is just that, a flight assist. Think of it as an autopilot that always applies the correct thrust to damp out sideslip and bring your ship to the speed you have set in the direction you are facing.
Theoretically there is nothing flight assist does that a sufficiently skilled player couldnt replicate if he had 6 fingers and a computer for a brain to determine exactly how much thrust to use on each axis of movement.... The game server operates in the 'real'* physics mode, Flight assist is just an aid for people who prefer a more 'flight sim' style of play.
*real-real physics are disabled in terms of speed caps and artificially low speed limits to allow for the twitch style combat itself to be viable. way back at the beginning of the pre-alpha engine test there were no speed limits and combat was impossible due to passing your opponent in the blink of an eye. human reflexes just couldn't keep up. :)
eldrad, Shape, martin, niki, _ghost_, a few various others.. possibly myself are good PvP pilots.

It's not totally true, cause most PvPers don't necessary duel , but you could find a nice "/kill-list" (or "beware-list" )

Welcome DND! You folks sound like you'll fit right in...
(Leber, that was "coffee"... not beer in the cockpit... er, wait... I guess there was that one night after Miharu's wedding... I'm still cleaning the Roid Rammers™ outta my boat - why I tried that with all those cases in the back still puzzles me)
Anyway, welcome again to the community... there are a lotta fun peeps here, and it sounds like that number just got bigger. :)~

Welcome to VO!
Glad to see some new faces, even if it does mean more kill counts... If you'd like to learn some useful pvp tactics, feel free to attack myself or any player with a [SCAR] tag, we'll be more than happy to return fire.
Yours truly,
A-Dawg

Hello all - yet another DND'er here - oh btw Dru got another rule for you : Dont try to take on Orne Guardians after only 6 hours game play - it doesnt work....
see you all in game - recognise some names from yesterday here which is nice - makes a change to find a game where the forum community is the same as the game community :)
