Who's Scruffy Looking?

CMDR Scruffy Nerfherder here.
Just came back after over a year, got bored too quickly at release. Nice to find a group of people.
Recently saved up enough to get a pimped out Vulture after running rares for the cash. Ready to do some RES work, although I don't think I'm very good at it. Would love to team up with someone(s).
I'm in HIP 20277 and have pledged to ALD, although I don't know if I'm going to do much merit work at this point. Don't want to destroy any faction and I'm not sure I know what I'm doing enough.
(fwiw, I haven't picked up Horizons, so just have the base game for now)

Welcome on board!
If you feel like helping out our in-game faction we are at war in the Exoice system and could always use another combat capable pilot

Welcome back to the game, Scruffy!
The Vulture is an awesome ship for BH, no doubt!
I was just at HIP 20277 today, working over some pirates in a RES with a couple of wingmen.
I'd be happy to wing with you anytime. I am based close by and am usually doing combat somewhere in the area.
I am also with ALD, and can help you with some merit grinding too if you are interested. I typically just maintain level 2, so that I get the BH bonuses.
Feel free to send me a friend request.

Thanks all. In installed TS but it looks quiet. That discord link/invite says it's no longer valid.
I made my way down to Exioce, so hopefully I can find some people to wing with for some NPC killing. Still trying to figure it all out.

Welcome! Scruffy is fine. As long as you're not stuck-up and half-witted, you'll fit right in here!
Compared to a year ago, you can actually make a decent amount of money through combat. A typical bounty hunting session nets me 3-5 million credits by the time my ammo/chaff/shield cell banks have run out.
If you're flying a Vulture, don't worry about combat - it's one of the most capable and easy-to-fly combat ships. Unless you're carry cargo, pirates in RES's won't attack first so you can pick fights at your own pace. Just be wary of wings - even two eagles can be a handful.

Welcome! I frequent the azrael system and hop around the plentiful res surrounding that system - always up for res hunting and what better way to do it than in a wing - CMDR Auloria in game if you wanna send an invite

Thanks guys. Added you as friends and hopefully we can find each other online - would really like to try some RES hunting in a wing, or even a CZ (although they seem to be kicking my ass - too many targets). I'm CST in the US, but my play times are sporadic - only occasionally during the day depending on work (I work from home, so can play if it's quiet) or evenings/weekends depending on Wife Aggro.
Current goal is to work towards a badder combat ship (Python maybe?) as well as an Anaconda for when I'm wanting to Chill-and-Trade. May even want to rank Imperial at some point to get a cutter - if only to say I've driven a cutter. I'll probably explode it leaving the dock...

aaaaand I managed to get a murder bounty is exioce. Guess that python shooting with the security patrol WASN'T actually WANTED.
Got it to go dormant, but I need someone to homicide me or I'll need to stay out of that system for a week.
