Grabbed a morning shift today and met some great pilots including Malleus, Aurian, Savatage, empty, klosar, Gymy, cristiandoom, DC-1820, [OPG-Rat]Slayer, Captain.Nudel, Hell_Co, and the hilarious Qujambo_lu_Scrappah. Very original role-play dialog.
I provided some nice trade runs to Kusari that also pay well, cleared up the cloaking device mystery, setup a Rhino, gave my famous mining school, confirmed that Freelancer with Junker gear was ok, and helped a lost pilot looking for direction in his life join the OPG.
A big thanks to [OPG-Rat]Slayer for being my go-to guy.
Chastised a few pilots for continuing to use "//" in the system channel. I guess old habits die hard.
Here's an interesting quote:
Heaven is not a place or a condition. It is merely an awareness of perfect oneness.
Did my weekly tour of Sirius. Big thank you to Eric.Katz for showing me through the minefield in Lorraine. While in Gallia I picked up a load of wine and gave it away to the Outcasts at Malta and the Order at Toledo. Nothing like a bottle of wine to pick up the spirits.
Was called in via long-distance comm to resolve an issue in New York. One fellow was angry and the other spoke little English. Not a good recipe for success. None the less, pilots were counselled and educated. I hope it avoids a sanction.
Again met some great fellows including Rev.Derlith, DragonWings, Carda-Miner, IMG|Set.Koli (old friend actually), ATG|Katie.MacDonald, |TAZ|Med.Force.One, DSC-Void, LeSnuggles, zliner, zoner.fred, Otarrec, Thomas_Senca, Testudo, WoodenSpoonOfDiscipline, and Guardian.Angel (no relation).
Assisted with Junker rep, Zoner Guard rep, good trading runs, great smuggling run with counterfeit software and black-market munitions, where to buy an Eagle, and price of Junker Bomber.
Big shout out to ATG|Katie.MacDonald for donating to The Angels. Will honor you in our official donation thread too.
Pulled a morning shift today. A lot of happy pilots mining platinum and selling it at Newark Station or Planet Houston for a bit more profit. Big profit at Planet Honshu and a pretty safe trip in a Rhino.
Met marcuswalker, Arthas, Strongtoni, KingFishers_Friend, Snaps.Provolone, D'Anconia, USI J.Adams, and Aguste.Emerson.
Big thanks to DSE)Foraker for getting a new DSE pilot and a donation to the Angels from Peace|Daniel.McArdle. Will also engrave your name in our Swift Foundation honor roll.
Squeezed in so time this afternoon and took a fella named KMZ-Holzspaten to New Berlin to help him out getting a Kruger background. Came back to find that Pennsylvania was doing fine in the Hands of the DSE which seem to be getting well and truly stuck in with the effort. Kudos to them. Joined DSE)Foraker for a small round of mining to help some rhino I forget the name of.
Then an Ash tradition of setting up a contest for 500k to anyone under level 25 who can take my hull down to 50%. A good fella named B0T took me up on the challenge. Before long we were jousting away and Angel Sprolf popped in to see the fireworks. Surely enough B0T succeeded and I forked over the money along with a big shiny gold trophy thrown in by Sprolf.
Throughout the day was helping various individuals from all around including one Vulzan and Leo.....something. Mostly things to do with OORP stuff.
A fairly eventful shift. About time I got my ass back in the action.
I think it was angel Sass who helped me out getting Junker rep by showing me a Junker base in Penny and providing me with the funds, before I even got forum access. I am very grateful.
I was a little nervous getting such great help without being able to provide anything in return, but the Angel was very nice.
Actually, now I can and would like to return the favor by donating to the Angel fund. Who should I transfer the credits to?
Thanks,
FreelancerFanatic (I changed my Junker's name several times and I actually forgot the original name I used when Sass helped me!)
Well thank you, your generosity is greatly welcome and appreciated. It's nice to see some of those come back from the big wide world to pay us a visit and a little extra funding.
The money can go to any Angel in particular really, just post who you sent it to on this thread. Preferrably you could send it to the Swift Foundation which is our "Vault" if you like.
