Welcome to Elite: Dangerous.

I didn't realize a week was how long forever was. Wow. Did you know we have 52 forevers every year?
So what does that make me? 500 Eternities old? So I guess when I close my eyes each night, that's not sleep, but the heat death of the old universe?
My how time passes.

 

[Amargosa]

Let me guess, it went boom in less than 5 seconds? hahah

 

[Siobhan]

A whole week?
I don't think I've known anyone on the forum here who's been playing that long. It really would be forever.

Just one shot.

From a sidewinder.

With a pulse laser.

 

[Factabulous]

Inability to spell 'Conda makes me say: This is legit. Help this CMDR.

I'm going with satire.

I'm not sure if this is real either, but trying to be helpful...

... Anaconda is not the best ship in the game in every situation. Fly smaller ships until you fully understand flight controls, outfitting and engineering. For most people that takes months or years.

 

[Speedcuffs]

Hard luck OP.

 

[Siobhan]

Seriously though, if the OP is genuine... I mean it's not beyond the realm of possibility that someone gets a conda in a week, but...

Were you in Open, PG or Solo?
Why were you flying without enough extra creds to cover the rebuy cost? (Rule 1 is Never fly without rebuy)
What was your build?
What is your combat rank? What was the rank of the ship that killed you?
Was it a player commander (Name starts with CMDR and icon on radar is hollow), or NPC (No CMDR in name and a solid icon on radar)?
Any other information you can provide, though not the killer's name since that's not allowed.

On the other hand, if not genuine... hmmm....

You can pick them up for free at Hutton Orbital. As many as you want. Isn't that where you got your first one?

 

[Jankules]

Easy come...easy go...opals should be taken seriously...Thank God,anacondas are free at Hutton orbital at Sundays...

Maybe, but there was no legal threat, nor "I'm Off". Additionally, it'd not be a very good troll, since it was not written in ALL CAPS!!!1111?

 

[Ian Phillips]

Please cut the sarcastic remarks out... Give them the benefit of the doubt before sharpening the knives!

 

[Macy]

This is not real.

 

[Siobhan]

Easy come...easy go...

Little high, little low

It's well within the realm of possible to go from Just Started to an Anaconda A-rated in about 6 hours. Less if Void Opals and a friend are involved.

 

[Deadlock-3000]

A whole week? For 1 Anaconda?

I earned enough in the week after the last big patch before Xmas to buy 54 of them.

No joke.

I mean, it took me four years, three other players and the loss of several hundred thousand neurons for grind-related reasons to get the stage where I could do that, but still.
