To all Hackers:
As you are no doubt aware, an ion storm has grounded all space flight in Sirius for the forseeable future.
Fortunately, The Lane Hacker Technical Division has just completed work on a new combat simulator.
This message is to notify all Lane Hackers that until the ion storm passes, you may complete your career promotion requirements using the combat simulator.
Specifically, promotion criteria for advancing from Trainee to Technician, numbered 2,3,7,8,9 may be completed using the combat simulator as the basis for completion.
You are not required to follow the guidelines in the recruitment protocols for tagging and ID'ing your Dagger in the combat simulator. You are permitted to get your Dagger tagged and ID'd as efficiently as possible. ALL promotion criteria for the Trainee rank must be completed in the Dagger however!
Once the ion storm is passed, all first time Lane Hacker pilots will set up their ships using the recruitment protocols.
Naturally, since it is a simulator, no pilots or weapons are required to be turned into the clan. You may dispose of them however you wish while in the simulator. Once the ion storm has passed all operational criteria will return to normal.
My special envoy, LH~Svengali will be using the simulator to meet his promotion requirements. You may contact him on the simulator with any questions.
