Hi everyone,
I am McSmurgy; I have been playing since release.
I prefer the trading and exploration offered by this game over the PVP aspect as the former requires you to think and plan, rather than just jumping into the most powerfully armed ship you can get your hands on and going ofter weaker players.
I am currently Flying a long rare trading/exploration route at the moment in a 20mil ASP with 112t.
I have noticed the majority of players in PVE are friendly, level headed and mature. The players interdicting and pirating don't really say much so I couldn't speculate on their attitude.
Thanks for reading and I hope to see you all out in the big black.
