As this conversation has progressed you have all made valid points, there is much debate as to how things currently work and how each of us think it should work.   But as I first posted, six weeks ago, there is no accurate chart as to how it works now.    The only way I currently see to gain RD faction is you kill Chavez, turn in tiles and do Tzu's missions to get into BBW and your Chavez faction takes a big hit.  If you want Chavez faction, you can only kill RD and there goes all of that great content, you can turn in tiles, but with HulkNerf now there aint enough tiles dropping.  No RD or Chavez jobs and killing your own faction does not improve your RD faction.  The charts shown (see posting #18, thanks Zackman) or the ones I linked in my original post are broken, sometimes have Chavez and RD lumped together as "Pirate" and are filled with info that does NOT work now.   Sorry to hijack this thread back to my original thought, but it seems there is no way to get both factions up at the same time and no accurate chart to show how things work NOW.   That is my point.  Are there any thoughts on that? ^_^   Thanks.

Many thanks Stanig, we appreciate your attention to this matter ;)

The "Already Running" nag has been the bane of my existence while playing, but the problem is not usually at startup.  I can, most times, just start 3 or 4 clients at the same time, letting the sizzle run as I start the next one, and rarely get the Nag.  The problem I have most times is a gate/dock crash and have to restart one of the clients.  THEN is when I get the damn nag.   So if I correctly read your statement I quoted, It still will help if one client crashes and I have no orphaned net 7 processes running, only ones with an open game running behind them, correct?   Oh and many thanks for working on this problem since the EMU team "don't support multiboxing" and I can understand why, they have a lot on their plate already  ;)    Thanks for the help, Huronimous

weekly maintenence for the server takes place at this time

ok, plan B is ask, in game, on General chat channel "is there a GM on?" perhaps that will get a timely response ;)

Now there is a good idea, have em spawn away from the usual roid fields...

make a ticket...   http://support.net-7.org.

I was told I should submit my tickets with Help/<b>Get</>-Help butten, ie the old live help system. Quite often I have tried the in game path and I do not get a "We got your request for help and are on it ASAP" email, which means it got dropped somehow.   <_<  I never use it anymore, I only go thru the forum support link on the main page under "Game Master Public Support" or I, as you suggest, ask in General for a GM to help

Ummm, actually the login server is separate from the game server.  People still are playing on the game server and if they get hung up, crash, or are booted, they cant get back in, just like us.  The login server is broke and no one is getting in till a Server Dev looks at it, and *maybe* they restart both servers...  *then* it would take about 20 minutes to restart the whole shebang ^_^

wow, and I thought it was just me......   same here

Have you tried your in game graphics settings?  Unclick "use recomended settings"  leave Gamma alone and then slide all the other sliders to the right and then click ok.   That really helped sharpen things up for me, especially in the build terminal and the icons there. 

Nanobots is a L5 trade good sold at FPO for selling at Somerled.   This is not what we are discussing here.   A "Crate of Nanobots" L1 item that states what it is for (in the description) and not available anywhere except from this mission and for this mission, is the item we are talking about.  I think Stanig's solution might be the fix. ^_^

got in for 2 gates and then "loading screen of limbo"   now cant connect to server at all

Exactly!  Notifier FTW :)

Along with Terrel post you could use ores in the DB that have no use now.   Warriors and hunters could collect and turn in loot that is now only vendor food

/agree  Glenn Commision faction isn't that easy to get, no suits, tiles.   Another avenue would be nice, thanks.

getting ready to restart after fixing Pluto,  it was blackholeing toons

Ahh, I remember the good old days when the server would stay up for four or five...     Hours....   But for all the hard work put in to keep things up and going you all have my heartfelt appreciation!  :)

I'm on it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9G18qHPhcM

When i read this it sounded like Michael Keaton saying "I'm Batman!" :ph34r:   got a chill  LOL   Thanks for all you guys and all you do to keep things running ;)   ooo Starting :lol:

10 of the lasers and the cert all in your hold (not vault) and talk to Mackellen? and still nothing?  ticket time then...

perhaps we are ALL hung at the loading screen and none of us are in .....

Take 2...

server up and get the "loading screen of limbo"  "waiting for server"  in tool tray...

after looking thru these missions, I can see that most of these are in the game in some form or another now.
