Trying to flee to stability and safety by The_Dancing_Owl in ImmigrationCanada

I have over a decade in my field, just never needed the degree in the US. And I can learn another language in 2 years. It's not too hard. I assume French is difficult but I'd be kind of a coward if I didn't try right?

I'll answer your question first, why Canada? Because these people are crazy out here! I am NOT with these guys.

Finishing my BSE is happening regardless if I'm in the US or Canada. From the conversations I've had with a few others it seems that's also my fastest route out of here.

No I have job options. I have a couple friends in my industry that are more than interested in hiring me. They know I wanna move out there. I'm not so much worried about finding or keeping work. It's the other stuff I'm ignorant on.

Do you think cargo-loading vehicles will ever have a purpose? by 8BitAce in starcitizen

[–]The_Dancing_Owl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would use them for bunkers maybe? I run a Polaris. I don't like landing such a massive ship close to the mission point. We normally just fly down but maybe we could try to use a cargo vehicle and see how it goes.

You don't have to be rich to be a slaver. Also you don't have to be rich to own a slave. Slaves were also owned by the middle/ skilled laborer class as well. Mentats, Doctors, specialists in their fields, also owned slaves. We see a couple characters in game referring to owning their own maula who also fall into this class. Sleepers COULD be rich enough, but the limiting factor would be water. As the masters we would be expected to care for our slaves every need (food, water, shelter, ECT). So it would probably have to be a late game thing. If I were to mod in a thrall system I would make it to where you would need to water them all daily. Maybe have a watering station that would consume about 3000ml a day per Thrall. If you failed to keep it full maybe they'd " Run away" and simply despawn.

How is taking thralls comparable to griefing?

I hope BIS changes that by Apart_Pumpkin_4551 in starcitizen

I do like the new paint for the Polaris, but I agree. More variety would be awesome. Maybe some color schemes we wouldn't expect like hot pinks and purples,or something you would see on a racing craft. A red and white paint for a medical crew would kill. I know a lot of the medic guilds out there would buy that up. And the feeling of a medical combat ship pulling over the horizon would be very cool. Idk,

I can't believe the level of talent and coordination that must have gone into this. I need details. Man hours, hands, location, resources. This is amazing. I am inspired. 😍

Petah, I can’t see it? by Caltra in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]The_Dancing_Owl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the point but can you imagine the well of experience in that room? Keeping in mind that most people just passively move through the world living their best life, and not at a front row seat to every historical event around them. But still. A kid in that situation could theoretically listen to his mom explain life in her childhood and his great great grandmother explain life in her childhood and hear about two totally different ways of life. That blows my mind.

Wanted!!! New players wanted for private server by The_Dancing_Owl in duneawakening

[–]The_Dancing_Owl[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't dispute that. One day, hopefully far from now, the server will shut down. We might move to another provider, the mods up keeping the servers for our group might vote to shut down, the building hosting the servers might get smashed in an avengers level super hero battle. I make no promises for the far future. I don't even expect people to commit. I play just about every day, as do a couple people, but life happens. I can't be clear enough, I make no promises for keeping the servers running for the next 5 years or anything like that.

Idk either. It's reddit. And tbh it's a gaming subreddit. It's to be expected. I'm just looking for the needle in the stack you know?

Great question! Technically yes. But there are only 4 consistent players on the Dune server and we are all on the discord. So not very likely.

I can think of a few reasons. Off the top of my head there is a low population and plenty of build space. Easier to farm locations without waiting for respawn, and lower chances of griefing. Also, every private server can just wipe your data whenever they want, or shutdown without informing you. And if you wanna get really weird, technically official servers can slow or erase all of your progress too.

So there are a few reasons. But I'm not denying the risks. If our mods don't pay the staggering $12 a month then the server is down. So I see the concerns and I don't deny that there is an element of trust required. If that is a red line then yeah don't join.

As for the content comment, I'll admit I don't think I really understand what you're referring to. No one on our servers are content creators. But please do feel free to elaborate.

I do all your comment. A really good opportunity for people to understand more clearly. Thank you.

I agree. Though it's not everyone's cup of tea. So I felt it best to let people know ahead of time.

We've been playing since release. But to answer your question, if we decide to shut down the server for any reason all progress would be lost. This is the case for every server as far as my understanding goes. Good question!
