So in my starting Caldari area, still in the tutorial, when I right click in space to bring up the expanded menu to warp to the encounter or back to the station... I am seeing Chinese characters as one of the selections? Is this some player-created item and they named it with Chinese characters or is my game borked? Shocked Thanks

If you would name the system somebody could actually go there and check if it's not just you.

If you take all the sand out of the box, only the cat poo will remain.

That is a corp bookmark that anyone can create (at least in n00b corp) obviously and you appear to have a Chinese or Japanese or korean or I dunno some pictograph typing fellow player among you.

Thanks Baneken. Was hoping that was the case, that it was player-created and my game wasn't freaking out :-) Just not used to seeing foreign characters in my game menus, just in chat ;-)

The language is sure enough Chinese but too small for me to figure out. And yep, see you can see it's under the menu group "Corporation Locations"

The words mean "Newbie Base". I'd assume that that's the POS which your new corp members are allowed to make use of.

It's not a POS cause:

1.) You can't have a high-sec POS in 0.9 system.
2.) You can't have a POS at all in a NPC corp.
3.) If you look at the drop down in the picture it says approach (means it's less then 150 km away) and dock (means it's a station), combine it with the overview (the station is at 0m) it means the guy made a corp bookmark of the station the OP just undocked it from. Likely he did this so he can easily track his location back from People&Places.
