Good to hear from you.
Cool The days of the Harveys & Alpha Code were good times. It's good to see you. You've an old-school honor playstyle that I remember 1st hand that can't be taught to people nowandays even with a gun to your head.
Let me know when you get settled in & I'll go out of my way to find the time to play with ya
With all honesty I do intend to bring back the Harvester RP but I doubt to the degree it once was. Leading a faction, cordinateing strategy, putting out forum fires, and maintaining real life responsibilities are a very difficult juggleing act and what caused me to take a 3 year brake.
The last RP I wrote I left open ended so I could make this return. The RP here is unlike what can be found anywhere. While there are out of character forum factions and politics that limit RP there is also a fountain of ideas and still probably the best regulated RP community available. So, I have decided this place is the best place to vent ideas as I get them. Get some good PvE with the threat of one's RP bringing both expected and unexpected PvP combat. In character dialog is fun and non existent most everywhere else.
I enjoy the chance that one wrong jump and you may end up in a cross fire of two other factions fighting and be drawn into it, or be ambushed and then get lucky enough to think fast enough to win anyway.
So, while I mentioned there being negatives I will not take time to mention them because for all I know, things could be different. Definitely more good here than bad.
I don't think I had any grudges with anyone when I left but even if I did I'm not interested in perusing them. I am here to do the RP that feels right, which allows me to write about unemotional machines who desire technology, growth, and multiplying. In player terms I like to farm NPCs, and sell the swirl of junk in my hold. I intend to build a character that gives me that cobbled mismatched practical machine design that cares nothing for factional, or aesthetic considerations.
While I understand many player are inspired by Gundam wing, Battle Star Galactica, Robotech, and many fighter centric media I am inspire by a game known as Homeworld, Star Wars, and Sins of a Solar Empire. I have been accused of being a cap whore. I must admit my accusers are not wrong but different does not mean bad. It simply means different.
I return with 0 credits and 0 ships so fear not while I learn the rules again and reinstall the advantageous add-ons such as Photo bucket and Skype, I must work my way back up from the star flyer and will probably make a very generic RP which will allow me to build up some credits.
If anyone wants to message me any rules they know for a fact have changed since 3 years ago then I would be very grateful. If there are any members of The Harvester faction still in play I would like it if someone would drop me their names so I may reconnect and not run over any existing RP.
My old Forum name was Scornstar and I am the original author of the Harvester story however if someone is currently in ownership of the faction I need to know so I can play ball. Don't worry I am not here to "Usurp" any mechiniod throne.
I am glad to see Disco is still here but so many I knew are now gone. I just wonder if there are name changes or if they are simply gone. Marburg you been here since before I originally came its good to see ya. Is that old Zoner Mal still around? Yoda? Monstar? That freaking damned Rhineland pilot Kregur which I just could not seem to shoot down, one on one no matter what I was flying? What are the Junkers up to now days?
Right now I am have ideas but I will not be able to get the RP really flowing until I get some eyes in space and see, what is going on. Exploration always tells you more than sheer reading but I never do one with out the other,
Oh the toasters. I remember when they were scary mofos, blowing up smugglers in Delta and Beta, rather than a talking battleship camping Malta....
Good times.

Hey there, I am not sure if we ever met, but if I remember correctly you left shortly before I joined the Harvesters. It used to be a pretty great faction back then, however it broke down slowly.
The place is pretty much the same as it was, but some things might have changed a lot, so if you need help with something send me a message, Ill see what I can do.
The same goes for restarting the whole Harvester idea, really.
