I rounded my figure to the nearest whole number. You did that and then doubled it. We're agreeing to disagree on this or you can try to convince a brick wall for all the fucks I give. I was going by slightly newer figures and if you re-read you'll see I actually attributed about $10billion...

Yes. It's called lying. It's what you did with welfare expenditure as a proportion of GDP. I provided my sources, and any idiot with a calculator can verify what I said. Care to do the same?

I disagree, it's pretty simple. I'd say doubling a figure is inaccurate, you consider that acceptable. I wouldn't complain if you rounded to the nearest whole figure, which isn't that hard if you're not trying to misrepresent your source. Shit like this only causes mistrust and loss of...

Very true. The USA is the country most commonly referenced in comparison to Australia in my experience, so the statement was purely subjective. That was kinda my point, Australia is no closer to being a true socialist state than Sweden, we do both incorporate many aspects of socialism...

Last complete financial year's welfare expenditure was $146bil. Source: 2014-15 Commonwealth Budget - Welfare - The case for change GDP was $1454bil. My figures were slightly off as I was going by the previous years GDP which was about 100bil higher, but still, extremely close to 10% Source...

I wouldn't usually try to bring anything remotely relating to politics into a game forum, but actually living in Australia and knowing how much misinformation you're putting out I have to amend a few things. If you're in the highest tax bracket in Australia you pay 30% tax on your first $180,000...

Excellent idea.

Fuck me, reading this it's no wonder some people like to avoid SMdock like the plague. Congrats to the new Council member's.

Does that station belong to a player faction? If so it may be their home base and thus be invulnerable.

Do you have java installed?

Possibly, but being nice doesn't cost anything and hopefully balances out the times when I act like a douche :)

I should apologise for arguing earlier, I hadn't even noticed the doubled regen at the time and should have had my facts straight first. I agree that it is a bit too much. That looks much better.

Just wait til you try to transport cargo. My miner had 1.5 hours worth of asteroid mining spoils, 600-700k of standard armour and maybe another 200k of systems blocks in it's storages. Ship is about 20k mass. cargo is about 25k of mass.

Trouble with that is you're trying to dictate how people play a sandbox game. some people want to build ships to a larger scale so you can achieve a decent level of detail etc.
