OI mean what good does a "trade" ship do me if it can only hold 8 cargo?? Seriously Frontier? As if a noob trader like me would have the capital funds to buy goods that would make an "8" cargo hold profitable

Hang in there, mate! Still finding my way, but there do seem to be fittings to expand your cargo bay - I've got a Cobra and in outfitting in a decent station you can upgrade 4 unit cargo racks to 8 or even 16 unit ones. But you need to earn enough to pay for them, though!

I wasn't expecting server reboot at this time, but hey, it's not long. Haven't been able to play that much until this week; the killer was that I had Beta access earlier and everytime I managed to get an hour or so to play, they released an update so I had to reinstall everything and had no playing time. Ha ha. Been great to finally get a few hours in. What a great game. Hope you're enjoying it!

"While scooping" is bad... ended once into middle of the star myself when logging back. 2% hull left (out of 100% when logged out).... got free in more or less than 1000 pieces tho.

2 AM on the east coast. They went down last night too. So, this may be a regular occurence from now on. After the holidays, no big deal, but buzz kill for now. At least I catch up on the forums. Fly smart!

Ok, so I am mad at Frontier. On my 2.5 bottle of Laguntias Little Sumpin, I accidentally sold my Eagle thinking it was my worthless Hauler. I mean what good does a "trade" ship do me if it can only hold 8 cargo?? Seriously Frontier? As if a noob trader like me would have the capital funds to buy goods that would make an "8" cargo hold profitable. The most you can make on a run is like 3,200 credits?!?! So yeah that is when I sold my Eagle in error! Luckily I had enough credits from pwning wanted person at a beacon in a my noob Sidewinder. However, as things go in ED, the only ships cold are friggen transports. So I have to make a another 5 min jump to the next station in hopes that they have another Eagle I can buy, even though I the station I just sold it to should at least have one right?

Anyways, as I get close to the nest station, I am getting all excited about going back to my "wanted" pwning ways at beacons, and a friggen message of doom pops up out of the middle of no where on my VR pilot's display. "Server maintenance will happen in 30 mins. Return to a base or get pwned by the Matrix." Again another thing out of a million that does go wrong in the universe of ED. So I unhappily dock at the next station, and luckily they have an Eagle I can repurchase to make up for my buzzed stupor. I got it combat equipped, and now I am eager to return to hunting down the less than desirable scumbag pilots that pass through my chosen beacon.

Can someone who actually read through my buzzed stupor tell me how long downtime actually is? I would really appreciate it...

You think the entire world is in your time zone? Do you know where Elite is produced? Are you dense or drunk?
OK, I actually read your post. You're drunk.
