Just signed up and hope to be flying ingame soon with you all, well at least 31 of you

I have been playing mainly in solo and dipping my fingers into open on occaision and whilst I do enjoy seeing the other players around I was finding an increasing attitude of you are in open so you MUST fight me. I do not aspire to PvP and much prefer cooperating against the game.
I am sure I will find a good home for that here
