Greetings, fellow Commanders!
I've just got back into playing Elite: Dangerous again within the last week, after playing a fair bit in the Betas. At the moment, I'm doing a bit of trading and exploration on the fringes of Imperial Space. My current goals are simply to build my bank balance up to a reasonable level and increase my reputation within the Empire. (Hail the Emperor! Bask in His Greatness!)
Like many of the commanders here, I joined this group because I enjoy a bit of social interaction and cooperative game play, but I also have an active policy of reducing my exposure to internet sociopaths. For me, the presence of irrational and unorganized hostility on the part of other players simply reduces immersion and the quality of game play.
Please feel free to say hello if we find ourselves in the same corner of space, or friend me if you'd like to work toward some common goal or chat while on a long and lonely trade run.
Best,
CMDR Peribothra
