Despite hearing lots of bad stuff 'bout GC, I've actually decided to give it shot. Myself I've only tried to play here once, five years ago when numbers here were trough roof. Back then it was lags and my noobishness what scared me off from game.
Since then I've been playing on other, much smaller server, but seeing how its activity went down to crawl few months ago and little happens to fix it, I've made decision to give GC another chance.
I've heard lots of bad stuff bout you guys, but so far my experience here is pretty great. I've meet some cool guys who've helped me a lot to start fresh here.
For now I'm working on setting up my chars and learning bout big players and bussiness around. Ultimately I would like to have Lib. Unlawful (started with LR), RM (started with that too) and Zoner (just plans for now).
Well, first off - allow me to give you a warm Welcome to Disco!
Obviously, i would recommend you give a read to the rules and guidelines here on the forums as well, just to make sure you can dive in the environment and understand it as well. On the other hand - if you have questions or need help with anything, feel free to ask here or send a PM to someone (me, others, Angels, Admins...).
I'm also curious, just as VerbalArtist - if you're willing to share - who was it that spoke ill of DiscoveryGC and/or what exactly (s)he/they said?

I'll keep to myself, but it was more folk who were unlucky here than server's official line.
So far I've got myself with three chars: Grunt that is helium miner, Raoulf that'll be RM fighter when I get money to equip my wraith and Sundowner that'll be LR fighter when I get money to equip my eagle.
Just a word of advice; if you want to be a Zoner then joining one of the many Zoner factions might be good, but be sure to pick the right ones as some of the Zoner factions are a but... um.
Well I won't say anything bad about anyone else in the community xD, but if you want a Zoner faction to join two good ones which have been there a while are the Temporary Autonomous Zoners (TAZ) and Pheonix. If you want to be part of a startup the Commonwealth is a good bet (srry bit of shameless recruiting here).
Other good Omicron factions are some of the OC guys (you'd have to ask about them) and some of the Corsair guys (again i'm not the guy to ask). Order and Core are about on par i'd say for growing into, maybe Core's a bit more new guy friendly.
But hey if you want to be a Robot you can always try The Consensus (AI) (again, lots of self advertising)!
