Hi all! I saw the general call for combat pilots to help out the Order of Mobius, which is how I ended up at Exioce. After winging up with JohnLuke for some CZ tomfoolery today, I decided to stop lurking these forums and start posting.
I've been playing E:D since the beta in 2014 and Mobius was the first group that I joined. I'm old enough to remember the original Elite back in the 80's, back when videogames didn't spoon feed you.
One thing I've noticed is that the Elite population seems to grown a lot in the past few months. With my Australian timezone and latency, seeing other commanders online used to be a rarity. These days, I'm almost certain to find other players in any of the popular systems.
I have to say that the Mobius private group is refreshingly different to most online gaming communities. In Open (and most other online games), other players seem to be there to attack you or be attacked by you. But in Mobius, players tend to open a comms channel to say hello as soon as they see you on the radar!
So it looks like I'll be here awhile. I'm glad to be part of Mobius and hope to meet you out there in the expanse! o7
