Just wanted to apologise to commanders Valhalla and Serpentis Ictis. Who both sent me a private greeting message, which I failed to respond to.

Apologies guys, I wasn't being rude, I always reply but I wasn't at the computer at the time.

Not even sure if they're active on here and will see this but though I'd give it a shot.

You could have just sent them a message back, then you'll know they'd get it then. :D

This happens often if you're in the habit of greeting hollow icons. I greet all I see when flying in Mobius, some respond others don't. No problem. If the hollow is in a station the commander in question is just as likely to be AFK.

So don't sweat it. :)

Fly safe.

I did try replying but they'd disappeared.

It's just the way I'm wired, I feel it rude not to reply and don't like others to think I'm one of those who ignores any kind of communication. As we all know, the galaxy is huge and it's nice to get friendly messages from other players, which doesn't often happen. Oh well.

I might throw a wave on occasions, but I hardly expect a reply.

And atm I will have to lean pretty far ahead and fumble blindly for the keyboard to do so.
Since so many here use HOTAS I wouldn't expect much from ingame coms.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

I almost posted a thread similar to this one a while back. It gets on my moobs that chat is so limited in general, but it is really frustrating when, by the time you've replied to someone, they're no longer available.

If it were up to me I'd add hyperspace capable carrier pigeons to the game.
