I'd like to apologise for my absence the past two weeks but a disconnection and the exam period is taking it's toll slightly. You'l be seeing more of me within a week I assure.
Was floating outside Freistadt waving to the miners today. A very busy shift, alot of overlapping channels and chats. Most walked away enlightened or satisfied from what I can gather. Apologies to Shadz1264. It's been a bit of an overhaul today, you'd logged off before I had the chance to get round to your question.
Utmost thanks to Watannabe for his/her donation of 100 million credits - the single largest donation I have ever recieved, amounting to more than all other past donations combined.
Very quick shift this afternoon. Only a couple of help requests issued. Also a quick shift last night that lasted no more than half an hour. Despite my brief clocking time, many help requests were resolved and good feedback from recent patrons were also a welcome aspect of my time in space.
Did a short shift yesterday in NY and Penny. Nothing special. Few help requests only. Met also a relatively new player with a lot of questions related to the ID system and power nerf. After sending him a message on the wrong channel, I have helped him in my native language. Nice conversation it was.
A longer shift yesterday, and it was full of questions. For the most time, I have had more than one channel open.
3 or 4 Newbies contacted and explained the /restart thingie, power-nerf related questions, ID related questions.
Very happy to have a slice of time to put to good use here today. I'd also like to apologise for my patchy attendance as of late. When you work 37 hours a week to pay for student fees it can take it's toll on your time i'm sure you'l understand.
Made my way to Omicron Gamma from Koeln at 15:00 GMT. Quiet there. So decided to return to Pennsylvania, busy, busy, busy. Conducted a number of equipment transfers and startup advice for newbies. A busy shift, all is well.
Took an hour shift tonight. Was quite at first, then it picked up. Typical stuff, guy stuck in Conn and another guy banned for unknown reasons. Pointed them to the forums. Some Tech Nerf and rep hack questions. Gave 2m to a guy who was struggling with missions in his starting ship, pointed him to the Tech Nerf chart so he could understand the system and explained the ID system a bit. Few other questions regarding pirates and how to avoid them and such.
Today I had short shift in space but I've managed to help one player with new, faster and better trade rout and I had totally new player to point somewhere. I've pointed him to the discovery forums and explained him about basic rules and basic role play, thing is that I didn't had much time because player was gone. I just hope he will stay on the discovery road and that he will actually discovery more things about this game.
All other questions where basic and I answered them was.
Pulled a shift during just now; about an hour. Mined helium behind Penn for some new players. Answered their questions while mining for them and answered a few questions from other players. Log in the Skype chat like normal.
Edit: Pulled another shift this afternoon. Very few questions and only one taker of free helium.
I offered a newbie near Erie in a lvl 5 ship some help. Was an old player, which played Freelancer long time ago. I explained him how to /restart and how to /setmsgs, he was thankful a lot. Experienced in RP too.
Also 2 or 3 other questions were ask from other parties, but I don't remember its content.
Oh, and also two requests, when I will open my Shop next time....
