Gather around friends, it's time for me to tell you a story of the most lolwutty person I have ever seen, and this community has probably ever seen.
I will keep their shipname and ship type unmentioned, though you'll probably encounter them sometime. Maybe.
I was making rounds in Liberty, trying to find someone to pirate. When I pass by Manhattan and witness a Nomad go by. I didn't have time to check their cargo, but right off the bat they said "Truce?" I thought to myself: Hmm. Probably a Morph trying to get the hang of things. Boy was I wrong. Anyway, he vanished off radar before I could find him, so I went on with my routine.
About half an hour later, I'm passing the Missouri when I notice the Nomad sitting near the Pittsburgh Debris Field. So I go up to him and try to start some RP. But right off the bat, he starts spitting out random nonsense in the local chat as he's being attacked by some NPCs. He's also jittering everywhere, as he has 350 ping and 12% lag and 3% loss.
But I notice something. He's not flying a Light Fighter, he's flying a normal Nomad ship with an Independent Nomad ID. So I warn him (in Private Message of course) that he's out of ZoI and that he is not allowed to do that.
This is where it starts to turn weird. After that converstaion, he says that he's "looking for someone to give him a Navy ID".
So I'm asking the guy, "Why do you need a Navy ID anyway?" He says that it's so he can have a Tractor Beam and Dock on Navy Bases with a Nomad Ship. At this point I realize he has absolutely NO idea how role play works here. I consider myself a pretty horrible teacher, so I tried to redirect him to the forums.
After I tell him all this, he drops a bombshell on me saying he is only the age of 16 and has no web browser. Obviously I am confused as hell and have no clue how he got the mod without a web browser. He says a friend brought it on a USB flash drive and installed it here, and that his parents won't let him have net access yet (even though Discovery is using the net, but okay then).
At this point, he disconnects (or just completely lags out) from the server. And yes. I blew him up.
So ends the tale of the lone Nomad. Who ventured forth from Omicron Psi, in search of a Navy ID. Then he died. The end.
Disclaimer: I am not trying to rip on this innocent person, I just thought it was an interesting and one of a kind moment. Also, it was kinda funny afterwards. Thought I'd share it. Admins, feel free to remove or edit this post if you believe it's a bit insensitive or practically harassment.
