You couldn't cruise to catch up.
I actually wish that was reinstated for battleships somewhat.

If in formation with a big ship while you were a big ship (Not sure exactly which ship combo), when entering a jumphole, you would explode.

Liners had a huge habit of exploding to death in that situation.

Liners used to be a seperate class from transports. If you flew a Liner as a freelancer, you'd get sanctioned.

- shooting small rocks would drop the ore in space instead of filling your cargo hold directly. This would often lead to miner creating massive "ore clouds".
- such ore clouds would often be blown up by "pirates" (or just stolen by a transport flying through them and tractoring everything).
- mining with a bonus was possible with any weapon, as long as you had one mining turret mounted (and a miner ship+IFF+ID), this would mean that many people had 1 mining turret and 1 Bluebell Chaingun (16.67 refire).
- snub miners would get a bonus compared to transport miners.
- Mafics (nowadays replaced by the Arrastra) were absolutly deadly.
- IMG once used CR ships.
- Zephyr.
- CR was once allied with Corsairs. So was the Order.
- Dublin was once one of the busiest systems.
- T23 was almost every day raided by OC dreads. They often sat around Java, since the old base couldn't hurt them.
Guess I haven't been around for too long, so, just some .85 stuff that I remember.

MD mining company. Basalts with Eco chainguns crashing the server all the time.
