Back in the militia, a little more than an year ago. I engaged a rookie Incursus sitting at the gate in Raa and immediately had a Cruor and a Slicer warp in on me.

Somehow, I got out and warped out to a random plex beacon, but the fight continued there and my Tormentor was eventually blown up anyway.

A Complicating Factor.

If you could make a one-way trip through Time, taking nothing with you except your skills and knowledge, which direction would you choose to travel in ? Forward or back ?

Always forward. The past is to be remembered and honored, not longed for. Besides, it sucked.

Have you ever learned something that soured what you had held as a fond memory? What happened?

Love is an active word. Of causality it is a catalyst: Meaning a cause equal to an effect.

Learning, or rather, experiencing what being a capsuleer is really like. Old story, probably a very common one. Bright-eyed lad was promised the stars, found the stars to be less than brilliant when seen up close, got somewhat disappointed about it. Now has one foot across the 'bittervet' threshold.

Well, found my footing after a year and, despite the stars still being pretty tarnished, I can manage. Got acclimated with disappointment so there's that, I guess.

Have you ever suspected if your implants might be tracked? And if yes, did you investigate and find out if your suspicions is true or false?

I've had a hunch for years now but who does one tell the voices in there head?

Question: i love tea so much after finishing a cup i found the kettle empty. ) ;
i traveled back in time 1 hour to when the tea kettle was still full. ( ; so i thought ) ;
when i arrived the kettle was empty too. ) ;
it seems like by going back it ripped the tee i drank and the process of making tea
or me ever having been there to make tea out of the time line completely.
Now i am 2x as thirsty in mind on arrival back 1 hour and yet to really start the kettle.

Aaah! No! And if they did it would be because something was even more wrong than that makes it sound, because the brain itself doesn't feel pain (or itch)!

Thankfully, no. Then again, I dream very rarely.

Yes. Usually, because I forgot what I wanted to say when it is time to speak.

Any explorers here who had figured out what those derelict spaceships with no identifications that are sometimes found in sites are?

If these are the ships I think you're talking about, they're old. Exceptionally old if radio carbon dating can be relied upon (which given the good chance of exposure to all kinds of radiation means it can't)

However old they are, their design is certainly unique, possibly early Jove or even pre-Jove and relates to a very early space capable civilisation. The Providence Institute has been conducting some research on them to see if they might or might not be related to the origin civilisation of Scripture, but no conclusions can be drawn yet.

What was the biggest game changing discovery you have made in your life? Such as first seeing a certain system, or flying a certain ship, or an encounter that really changed your outlook on life, the future or other.

It was not a discovery that I made on my own, but one that was gifted to me, to which I am eternally grateful. Perhaps it is not necessarily seen as a "discovery", but more of a gift of truth: the Word of God. It changed my life in many, many ways, and is a comfort as well as a drive to do as He wills.

What did you do on your very first day as a capsuleer? Do you wish you had done something else instead?

I became a pilot in an era in which it was still necessary to train skills in order to increase one's own ability to train skills faster. Technological progress has since made this practice obsolete, but it was very much a thing then, and new pilots such as myself were taught to train such as to increase those skill training speed skills as soon as possible in one's career. I learned this my first day as a pilot and dutifully did so, at least to some extent. I do not really regret having done so, although I appreciate the advancements that have made that practice unnecessary.

No. Not even if it could be proven beyond doubt that your god was the actual creator. Being powerful does not entitle an entity to veneration. A powerful but utterly despicable creator would be worthy only of rebellion and opposition.

If you had to choose between 1 Firbolg II or the same volume of fedos, and were only allowed to fly frigates, which would you choose and why?

Firbolg II. I can at least sell it, reprocess it, or send to a carrier pilot as a present.

I can't say it was "just because", but I sure as hell did just that when it came to someone who I want to have a good life.

What's the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard someone try to peddle as truth?
