Yey, I was helpful: http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/13760#173324 :D

Np Luis, I'm a graphic artist and I know how ppl seems to forget us each time... =p thinking the job is easy?

Keep up the good work Luis !

Great work Guildsoftware! This is what keeps me comming back.

Hate to be picky here, but s'far as I can remember, you could always look at your universe inventory.

Also, you forgot the mission editor :x

You could look at your ships that you had stationed at different ports when selecting a ship but I don't think you could view equipment inventory remotely.

updated

Let's update again!

what would you like added?

Luis is gone.

a New topic for this year is needed, I think.

I like new topics, I vote new topic! Let the devs gloat to all who diss VO!

hey its been almost two years!

What's a few years between friends? <waves>

would love to see this updated. I haven't been paid up for a year or so and would love to hear how he game has progressed in that time.

Player owned cap ships

this needs to be updated.

Might be good to copy in the last mailing-list post. :-)

any chance this is going to be updated before the thread turns 5?

And a couple more years have come and gone. **waves again**
