[CapitanAceRimmer]

Hello peeps

CMDR CapitanAceRimmer here. I have been playing ED since January 2015. I never had any problems in Open Mode but I have seen and heard about people spoiling the game for others. I often find people run away from me in Open mode as soon as they see me when really I am not interested in attacking anyone. With this group I have not found that to be a problem.
In the other world, I am a software engineer by trade. Anyway feel free to add me to you to your in game friend list, I like doing a little of all the various game elements in an opportunistic manner. Currently, I am in the Suya area but I don't consider myself to have a home system.

[Cmdr Kijith]

Hello fellow Ed'ers......

My in-game name is Cmdr Kijith. I am fairly new to the game, 3 weeks in maybe. Joined the group to find a place to interact with individuals with similar in game interests.

Although i don't mind PVP, like others I prefer the ability to pick when i want to participate and that those i am fighting with made the same choice.

Looking forward to meeting with the group while traveling around. I currently operate in LTT 9810 for trade and Frey for everything else.

[Shiara]

CMDR Shiara, here and in game. I prefer PvE as most of my PvP experience has come from games where the community becomes exceptionally toxic. I have limited time to play games and I do it to have fun, relax, and so on. Griefers/Reavers I have no interest in dealing with.

I have two ships in the main game just now; my new T6 Transporter 'Flutterby' (pity we can't name the ships or put custom decals on them), and my original Sidewinder back in Eravate (I am currently working the Leesti Main rare route). I aim to get an Asp eventually.

Shiara/Siani (my real name)

Welcome, Commander Shiara and all the other new commanders I haven't yet said hello to

Hey all, Cmdr Thrace Fulton reporting in.

Been playing since Beta on and off, mostly casual hours now. I've gotten pretty sick of the approach to PVP in Open Play so I've usually been playing in groups with friends and Solo mode. Looking forward to the more organized PVP experience of CQC but I think most of my general play will be in groups like this one. Hope to see you around the 'verse!

Real-world me (Jim) hails from San Luis Obispo, CA, while Thrace Fulton originated in the Zaonce System before striking out into the black. I'm a bounty hunter and transporter by trade. I'll take just about any job offered as long as the pay is good.

Hi all, Cmdr Sphinx2k here.

I have been playing since beta, mostly casual hours, but worked my way up to a Combat Python + Trading Conda.
Hate the PVP approach in open, so have been sticking to friend groups or solo, but this group sounds cool - so happy to be here.

See you around. o7

Hi, CMDR Daveno looking to sign on

As a really bad pilot, pootling around, getting my 'asp' kicked in open, I've retreated into solo.. Will be putting in to join the group asap. Hoping to see many a 'holo square' on the scanner that doesn't shoot at me

An "official" welcome to you (again) Commander.

[Rimsplitter]

Hi all. Well I'm one of the refugees from all this Hutton Orbital business even though I never went there and I have never been attacked by a human player. I'm just so sick of griefers in the official forums whining that people won't stay still and be murdered, they want to ban "submit jumping", they want to see where people are on the map, they want to be worshipped for being complete toilets, etc.

I kept seeing this myhtical Mobius being mentioned so I finally sought it out and joined. I'm glad there's a player community that provides a PVE option that FD seem to despise.

I have played Elite since the 1980s and I currently drive a Python. I don't consider myself a noob any more and I am happy to be part of a like-minded group.
