A couple facebook quotes from a wise friend who spent a few years in Jordan as a missionary: "Ideas are not destroyed by killing their creators but by providing better ideas." "Usama Bin Ladin was an anachronism, a staunch anti-nationalist in an age of nationalisms. His movement was unsustainable regardless of his death." "Let's keep in mind that it is not al-Qaeda and Bin Ladin who are currently killing NON-VIOLENT peaceful protesters in various countries of the Middle East, it is dictatorial regimes, many of whom are supported by the U.S. (Yemen, Bahrain). If Bin Ladin's anti-nationalism was anachronistic, so are monarchies."

This? I like to think I'm on a "boat" when playing subspace:

end

People were doing this long before nano came around. They think it's fun because they don't get killed and can lay into people. Laming is fun for most people... it gives them the illusion of skill.

Found another good one: Theme from Metal Gear Solid 2 - http://www.youtuberepeat.com/watch/?v=ECjDfQd8QVc

Is playing the zone without grinding only for the "elite"? This seems to be the kind of newb-unfriendly thinking that pervades this zone.

Don't know if you guys know but you can use www.youtuberepeat.com to play any youtube video over and over. This can be like customizing your own gaming music for any game. Here's one that came to me as I woke up this morning. It's from the mortal kombat movie soundtrack. I think it would be a killer tune to play subspace by. http://www.youtuberepeat.com/watch/?v=1ENMnG2BaTA Edit: Spider just gave me this one: http://www.youtuberepeat.com/watch/?v=46tS09yBc9I

And they'll win because they have a lamer ship build than me which they could afford because they did some grinding on their own which I refuse to do. Hyperspacers, should this be? Money + Experience Allows lamer ship builds? your reward for grinding is getting to build a lame ship. Congratulations.

Zone just went down.

sorry I've been away from the zone for a while. Can someone explain or link me to a short explaination of what nano and nano deaths are?

While it's true I do know how to make money faster I don't think that should preclude trying out the idea. My real problem is that I don't like to grind.... any form of making money that involves grinding is not worth my time. If no developement is going to be put into Hyperspace to provide alternatives to grinding, then I will take my lazy ass to Final Fantasy XIV where I've found out how to play the game without grinding despite grinding being forced into many aspects of the game. I like centering because it's not grindful. I don't see why I should have to invest a ton of time in hyperspace in order to enjoy it. By the way I responded like I did because experience is just another form of currency, and has nothing to do with true "experience". In a word, the term is bogus.

1) popping out of safe only long enough to lob a huge bomb and then backing into safe. ...

Continuing from the previous post.... If this video were prophetic I would be Kaze. Who would you be?

If this video were prophetic of me, I would be both vincent and cloud combined... And if this video were prophetic of me, I would be both Kaze and Makenshi.... watch the wooden sword... it's my special move. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMk1mO7gkAw

Another thing I just thought of: rewards for kills should be based on the avg (ave). I've got a decent avg but players don't want to fight me because I give no experience or money. This shouldn't be. I just kick ass with a low level ship. People should be given incentive to fight me. And I should be given the opportunity to make money and experience faster because of my skill. I mean exponentially faster.

This is not a reply to myself. I'm posting this video as "Feel-good" video. Cause we're 'bout to take this item system and "light it up"

What were you quoting? something or everything? nvm figured it out

I know that because I never see Brain or D1 chatting in chat, it means they are never doing anything for the zones. TRUFFS!

can't wait to see several of these mounted on my tw battleship!

Here's a warbird build for you: www.youtube.com/user/MakenshiKaze#p/a/f/2/thsnDqQu0mQ Notice MakenshiKaze also has meaning.

If you really want to help this community give your warbird builds away for free and earn your money the regular way.

It's up now, I'm in it and Jowie was already there. Along with another guy.

This is not a reply to myself. It is a continuation of the previous post.

1) Informed Laming: Tell players the experience and total item value of killed opponent. This would let players know how much the really pwn... or not. Sidenote: you might want to have rewards and avg based on both these factors as well. 2) Single Player Games: Keep players entertained while little or not population. This would help keep the zone from going dead and help population come up faster. Could use the powerball... could do other things.

Forms of lameness by centering Levi (though not restricted to levis) name withheld to protect the guilty): 1) Safe Laming: I'd like to see center safe removed in favor of temporary invulnerability if possible. 2) Cloak Laming: Coming up behind someone when they are disadvantaged. Should cloaking be disabled in center? 3) Using PD in center: If you're going to let your items do the work, how much skill is that? 4) Relying on Huge splash damage. Not having to aim is lame. *) The idea would be to try to eliminate all forms of laming except incidental laming (engaging someone who's already in a fight) Solution A: Since Levi's are slow make them start in a base or something. The reward for actually getting to center is being able to lame. This sounds like only a half decent solution to me but I'm still posting it. Solution B: Disable certain items in center Solution C: Complete redesign of how ship works. Less lame. X-Radar in flag games: X-radar is too easy to use. There should be sufficient risk of allowing a cloaker through. Trying to cloak through a base is one of the most fun things I've ever done in this zone. It has been taken away. and item like Oracle should cost at least 1 mil because it takes away this FUN aspect of the game.
