    • a couple observations....


      first off, you can usually tell who just recently came on, by the fact that the most recent poster on the first few most recent posts is the same person....i did it, ubermann did it, and i have noticed it other times too.

      second, OH MY GOD!!! THE FREEPORT BAR AGAIN!!! seriously, i read the first hundred or so a while back, and thought it was getting old.....now i see it again, 240+ posts!!! i dunno if it's the same stuff, but man, save it for the chat room or battle.net or something!! i mean really! the first 100 or so posts sounded like a few of the little 'battles' ive gotten into on b.net! anyways, i think i!! stop w/ the exc!amation marx!!!!!!!!!!!

      huff, puff, phew! all that ranting made me run out of oxygen.....

      thirdly, i'm crazy, and this post may be kinda pointless (ill ask a question here, just so it isn't), but there really is probly 20 or more or so crescent fighters on that 'destroy the rock' mission. i have a miranu heavy fighter (or whatever, the green half-saucer ships), pretty good, i can take a lot of guys down, but i just don't see how i can stand up to that! really! anyone have any suggestions? (there's the question...)

      okay, ill shutup for the time being

      If you play a racing game and you keep shifting into neutral (then reverse...) because you're trying to use afterburners.

      If I were one of the moderators here (which I'm not), I would have deleted the "Freeport Bar" and the "Resistant Lives" topics.. They are so old now, they are cut into over 15 pages each and they never stop. The Resistant Lives will not stop 'cause the guy who made it always reply to it so it stays on.. I would have deleted the topics who extend 100 replies if I was a moderator so some new topics could have a go..

      Well, That explains why you're NOT one...cause you can't just delete posts cause they don't suit your tastes, or because they take up "space". Is there a limit I don't know of? Most new topic will be as stupid as the old ones...and deleting the old ones so the new ones can replace them is as stupid as flooding the board itself. By deleting a topic, there goes a discussion (or something of that nature). So without that topic to discuss under, poof, a new one that does the same thing. How limited you are...how very limited...Just because it's some stupid "EVMP or EV vs. EVO" doesn't mean you have any say wether it's worth deleting or not. That's not your choice to make (if hell froze over and you became a moderator), to go around ad delete posts cause they "take up space" or they "aren't your type". This isn't your board, so get over it...it wasn't OF's board either and look what happened to him...(next time I'll leave OF out of it)

      PEACE YO!

    • I personally enjoy the Resistance topic. While it serves no purpose but fun, what's wrong with that. Now, if that topic flooded the rest of B&B;, then it would need to be dealt with. But for now, what does it hurt?

      Well, you know what they say: "Resistance is futile."

    • thank goodness they closed the spacepot bar strand

    • well... in response the only question relating to EVO 🙂 the miranu gunships are not that great. Right now i'm in a cresent warship with no bay, 4 turrets, 4 generator, 3 mass expansions, all the manuverablity upgrades, dospect armor and the bronev plating (spelling?) i can kill any threat with this, but i'm trying to get a azzy warship, however everytime i do so executor locks up saying call frame traceback EIPs:
      0xfd381b65

      anyone know how to fix this. If you feel that its your duty to denounce anything but mac feel free. However, note that to my knowledge nothing on my computer is microsoft.

      yeah executor kinda sux that way.....and whaddaya mean nothing microsoft? or r u running executor linux? (does that even exist???)
      anyway, i am trying to attack the rock, and like some other people suggested, i got a bunch of defence pods...they work pretty well but i can't seem to launch 'em fast enough. other than de pods, i have 6 launchers, no bay (crescent warship), 3 turrets & one gun, 4 shield things, some dospect...4 mass expansions, i think, and the thrust upgrade (im too poor to afford the others). where does one get that plating stuff? and anyone know any way to launch those pods faster? would it help to sell a couple pods and get more launchers?
      thanx for listening to me rant, i kinda go off like that sometimes. but any help would be appreciated.

    • Well i use the dos form of executor, but yes, i do have win 95 :frown: . I just figured thats unavoidable. However, i got it from someone else, that money didn't go to micrsoft 🙂 . Don't ask me how i did it (i dont think its that easy) but i have a computer genius friend. Anyway to get the bronev armor you have to do the voinian missions its heavy but very useful in the cresent.

      ------------------

    • Well, as far as attacking the rock it is a pain. I had a similar problem taking out the renegade base at New Alcatraz (I never thought kraits could be so troublesome - the biggest problem was their death spasm, after I killed them they kept firing until they blew up and with so many of them that eventually ate my armour to pieces).

      Anyway, my solution - get an Arada and an engine expansion and do the monty (even a Lazira may be fast enough but you may need the RCS enhancement because the crescent fighters don't turn so well). My general strategy with any attack is to turn tail and let the fast fighters chase me - even though they are slightly faster you only have to deal with one or two at once - after that just go back and clean up the slow 'tanks'.

      Also, there is a certain diagonal angle across the screen you can take that seems to give you a little extra speed - If you get it just right you can outrun anything

      (I just run away from SAD modules and missiles of all descriptions in my current Lazira (w/Engine upgrade) until the warships or whatever run out).

      Hope this helps...

    • well i got it now, i kinda forgot to put the double speed on, don't know if that did anything, but.....anyways, used bunches of defence pods--they work wonders against them little dudes (kraits included, but kind of a waste if you have 2 or 3 yellow turrets). but anyway, now am on rescue ship designer string, but have homework, so oh well.
