      Forum Badge Update

      Well, I guess it's an issue on my end/my settings... If yall don't have it then never-ye-mind. ~.0

      Forum Badge Update

      When "hovering-over" a badge, it displays 2 messages -- the first is the grey box-o-text with the description, the second is a mini window with the member's name which covers the former (and is not needed.) May I suggest the elimination of that second one. (Rhetorical question, so no...

      CIR - Term 1

      I've expressed pretty clearly in several places that I don't like STV. Regardless of that fact, however, Let's be clear that: 1. This is just a game. 2. The Council has no real power to do anything. 3. If you have an influential voice in the community, your voice will not be diminished...

      Alien Vessel of Unkown Origin

      Maybe you're my evil twin... :eek: Well, here's what I (only) used for the hull: White & Blue advanced armor, a few Purple Corner blocks; Blue & Black crystals -- that's it! Any other colors are the result of glow and or shade. This is not a scheme I "always" use, it just kinda happened...

      No bubble planets please

      I'll try to say this as quietly as possible, just as a gentle reminder: (( All of the gas-giants in out solar-system have rings. And each has quite different types of rings, too. ))

      I voted... try to change my mind

      "Arguers" are either those that need to be right and continue to follow-up with postings to "prove" their point no matter what (which I am guilty of), or simply take pleasure in "disproving" or "discounting" a person's opinion/observation -- usually without regard to the over-arching context...

      Fireside Chat with Nuclear Doughnut, Smoke, and Comr4de (SATURDAYS AT 9PM GMT-7)

      The gigantic lack of content. Let's see, you can attack a pirate station, or attack a pirate station. There's really no reason to build a station or have a "base", and you'll always be just a faction of 1, so exploration and the incentive to explore is the likely focus (whether by actual...

      Fireside Chat with Nuclear Doughnut, Smoke, and Comr4de (SATURDAYS AT 9PM GMT-7)

      It is unlikely that I would participate (mostly because I am Schizotypal.) I would ask that you all bear in mind the importance of the "Single Player Experience." I feel it's significance is under-appreciated because most you "vocalizers" are multi-player-server types. But do not most...

      Discussing: The big problem of STV systems

      I still maintain that the best voting protocol is as I described in "Voting Has Commenced." For 7 seats to be filled, instructions as follows: • "Vote for up to, but not more than, 7 candidates." • All votes count equally (... do not transfer). • The 7 top vote-getters win. • The End Simple is...

      I voted... try to change my mind

      I will not share for whom I voted. But my criteria were as follows: • Most likely to do what the council is assigned: collate community opinion and inform the Schine team. • Put the job at hand before their own opinion and ego. • Not an "arguer" (as a fellow arguer, you are easily...

      Voting has commenced!

      Chat is not the community. It's a part of the community. A forum discussion with "on the record" opinions/suggestions reaches deeper into and is more accessible to the entire community. Your (all of your) hypothetical worries regarding a single large voting "block" are just that --...

      Voting has commenced!

      Simple question: Why was the community not consulted regarding the voting procedure? At the very least you could have gotten feedback, a general feel, as to what we -- the voters, the reason for having voting procedures -- would prefer. We didn't even know when the voting was slated to...

      The awesome new combat meta

      Mr. Popularity weighs in on multi-player combat tactics despite being a single-player player: I favor ostracism of your fellow players who would resort to petty, cowardly tactics. And/or you could gang-up on them and chase them to the ends of the universe.... just to make your point fully...

      Is pulse uselles as master?

      Damage-Pulse as a Primary Weapon: /sigh In all sincerity, either the Damage-Pulse needs a Dev's promise of "this is how we're gunna make it viable" or it needs to go. It's like the Wankel rotary engine of Starmade -- interesting in theory, but gimmicky, and ultimately eclipsed by things that...

      Regarding #3: That would explain a lot. But if so, I seem to be a highly defective model... :confused:
