Word of advice, ozzy (and just about anyone, really): Just like in the movies, arguing with Hannibal Lecter never turns out well.

Not that I particularly disagree with your sentiment...

Ozzy, don't let him get to you. Best thing to do is to learn to kill him :). It's called vendetta for a reason.

haha dramaz

whiny noobs and ass-kissing VPR barely constitutes drama.

explaining shit to a newb is ass-kissing? ah, yah, that makes sense now. heh.

Don't flatter yourself, pig. Pirates have handed out more free credits, useful advice, and helpful training than VPR and TGFT combined.

We're just not loud, sanctimonious, self-righteous prigs about the fact.

ha! I was just trying to figure out what my actions in this thread constituted ass-kissing.

We're [...] not loud, sanctimonious, self-righteous prigs [about helping newbs].

bullshit

genka, where have you been? Get back to work, troll!

Don't chase me I'm full of cargo!

i think someone should go thread searching and link all of the posts where some newb acted like that towards lecter, there must be a million, i think my name might come up in a few LOL

hahah, nice one genka.

It would be interesting to see how many of them left the game.

Whatever that number is, it's clearly one fewer than it should be.

So booting Dr Lecter would increase the VO playerbase......

Do the right thing for a change Lecter - Leave VO for the well being of the game :P

Only if you assume fewer stay because of me than leave for the same reason. I've seen no compelling evidence of that fact.

I would be surprised if you have any effect on either of those matters.

If anyone actually stays because of you then they are playing from inside arkham asylum.

Me too. I'm usually pretty good about demonstrating to the EC-89 pilots in Dau that they're living in a less than totally secure place, explaining what's what, and stopping after a kill or two. Unless they get all butt-hurt and mouthy, at which point I'm happy to take it as seriously as they seem to.

But my suspicion is that nobody's so upset by either ingame shooting or on forum ripping that they're going to leave a game they otherwise like. I could be wrong. But since I'm only personally contributing a whopping $6.67/month to VO, if I was actually costing the Devs money, I assume that at the very least I'd get a private e-maul from Inc. saying that I'd better shape up or ship out.

sigh i remember in azek j11 getting station killed by lecter years back happened 4 days in a row for 5-10 ships i stopped playing for a few days and made sure to see if he was on before i logged back in until i finally escaped to the bigger universe of vo and learned some fighting.
