Aren't you pilots lucky SSC's management is not too strict where the pilots are allowed to discuss whatever they want....
I just look at the diversion as we are bored of waiting and need to play other things haha, maybe I might need to checkout Elite at some point during the summer sale. It looks a little boring, but I do like exploring.... I hear that some of the more experienced players do a little griefing in the game, what happens to you in-game when player messes with you?
I wish I could talk more on Star Citizen, but I think my motivation is gone. I was really looking forward to Squadron 42 but that is delayed as well

Phew! Thank goodness for that!

Well it depends, If they attack you, and your not wanted, they will get a bounty on their head. If they destroy your ship and they are flying a bigger, more powerful one, your rebuy is reduced. All this happens in open mode, but I play in private groups where more *cough* "mature players" inhabit. Sometimes I even play solo. If being in a large group is what you want but without PvP, I suggest the Mobius Group. Elite can be as boring or as exciting as you want it to be. Go looking for trouble and soon....it will find you.

Ian Gillan had an amazing vocal range! He (or his management/label) had the good sense to hire Chris Foss to do the album artwork for IGB's Clear Air Turbulence. This wasp-like spaceship has trouble written all over it. Typical Foss artwork, for sure!

Of course, Clear Air Turbulence is also the name of a spaceship in Banks' sci-fi novel Consider Phlebas, which is a cracking read!

Aye! I was hoping to see Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets, but alas...

Ah! The Syd Barret era. For me at any rate Pink Floyd at their most freaky and best!

I just wish Syd was still here but as it is Nick had one of the Kemp brothers from Spandau Ballet fronting the band yes? I am sure he will do a good job but no one could ever replace Syd......no one.
EDIT: Oh no! I've done it again haven't I. D1 will be........."displeased" indeed.

Now, that's a fine song!! I didn't like "inFinite" to be honest, but I really liked the previous one:
