To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

I've been considering making my own girls only gaming clan. This girls only clan would have a partner clan for males. We wouldn't require a name change for any of your in-game names, and you'd be allowed to be in other clans. It would be more like a community than a clan. The clan would be multi-platform, meaning it plays games on all of the consoles and for PC. This is a message to all you girls here. If I made a girls only clan, would you be interested in joining it? If so, please send me a private message here and if I decide to make one, I'll invite you into the clan. Oh, and GIRLS ONLY, atleast until I get a male division created.
Reminds me of the Counter Strike female only competition a few years ago, can't remember the name. Mabye a division of ESWC or something.
Yes this is a good idea and I voted yes, but provisionally, but it would depend on what game is actually being played. For a long time I noticed that female players were all too often targeted while online and this drove me to play certain online games by stealth, hiding the fact I was female. If you have an visible female group I do worry if that clan would be targeted again as there are nasty people out there who take the term "griefter" to a new (lower) level.
Speaking just for myself, I am well past the stage of being bothered what some people might say or do while I was in multiplayer, but some young girls might get upset and feel threatened. Which may go to show why getting girls interested in space sims can be a difficult prospect at times. To girls who might feel this way, I would say this, there is a lot of satisfaction to be had from taking out a "pig"! <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//wink3.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> As I said, just my thoughts.
Oh one last thing, should Elite ever go multiplayer or MOO even, beware of hassling a Sidewinder class ship called J Miner's Revenge! <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_razz.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-P' />
