Hey, Guys,
Don't worry, I don't carry grudges, especially when it says on the cover page that conflict is inevitable. While my intention is to be peaceable, I will attack if I have been attacked. Most of the contacts I have had in the game have been friendly, and I believe that there is respect and the beginning of several friendships there. I often find that to be an important part of enjoying a game.
I would like to correct what I said at the beginning about taking membership benefits being like an athlete taking steroids. That was wrong of me, because it probably criticises a lot of people based on my own personal belief, which only applies to me. It is not a strategy that would benefit my personal game playing pleasure, however I see nothing wrong in anyone else joining a corp as part of their personal strategy, and they should do it if that is how they enjoy playing.
Phrasing it as I did was unintentionally arrogant. I apologise to everyone who was offended by it.Your responses in this thread have been even more educational than the advice threads. I have a much better idea of what the game is about, and some of your motives too. This will be a great help in the game.
@ SirEmi
I feel that if you put your post in this thread on your front page, or even on a linked page, you will get more people trying the game out.
Fly safe, Captains.
