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.

It's an old project, but David Braben has promised his release along with Elite VII. 🙄

looking crap?

no, turd i would say, this is outstanding, look at the mentioned price and power of it, i'm speechless.

this is as least breaking standarts as elite, i know why he said he never will do that again, this is far beyond.

erm, sorry geraldine i dindn't wan't to destroy your dreams, i'm rude i know.

if it's a consolation for you, we still have pioneer 😉

besides of that, i guess i told that once before, i feel he's allowed to do simply nothing, except yachting or golf :mrgreen: (i would do so in his place).
