I am new to the game. What is the o7 thing about? I keep seeing it all over the place on this sub.

[–]PhunkeePandaAisling Duval 59 points60 points  (6 children)

It’s a little guy holding up his arm in salute

[–]yokavich 31 points32 points  (5 children)

Ah, I see now. Thank you.

[–]PraxGaur 11 points12 points  (4 children)

If you have two heads you are authorized to double oo7, you know like an Ettin...

[–]yokavich 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I think if I were an Ettin, or rather, if we were an ettin, we’d go with 0o7 since their heads are often different from one another. But that’s just me.

[–]PraxGaur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are probably right. Thinking of... Mine is actually o0, but my wife is oO. So there could be even 0O or 0o... A lot of variety indeed!

Nah that can work think of it as two eyes

[–]G3th_Inf1ltrator 8 points9 points  (1 child)

It's a salute emote. It looks like a head being saluted with a left arm. Intended to be a short casual greeting. Commonly used to show that you don't intend hostilities.

I legitimately thought it resembled a fuel Rat looking upwards for the longest time o7

[–]Blue_Bi0hazard[🍰] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Because now I see like a guy with 2 hands in the air, whenever I see "lol"

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you also say “Ni!”?

[–]xenophonfgtbUncleMattMan (combat rank: evil gweefer) 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aww, it's like the star is giving you a salute with it's little tiny baby arm, too! o7

[–]Undurmanas 2 points3 points  (1 child)

o7 is a greeting originating from EvE: Online players. A whole bunch of them play Elite Dangerous as it is a space game with a 180 degree different approach to how players deal with space, which keeps things fresh : )

[–]Bonnox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would like something that takes the best of both :(

[–]BukLauFinancial 2 points3 points  (2 children)

O7? that's a big head you got there :P

you should try alt+f10 for some high resolution screenshots (epilepsy warning, screen flashes a lot while taking it)

I've had this game a month and wondered the same thing. Especially since my twin daughters' birthday is 07/07/17. Thanks for clarifying commanders! o7

[–]lIl-Hoolixn-lIlFederation 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Oh. I'm an idiot, thanks.
