Open Letter to the Thargoids

Welcome Thargonians!

I know your time back near our bubble has not been all you hoped it would be, what with us stealing bits of your fuel pumps from various worlds... And of course the shooting... Oh and the ramming, can't forget that can we... but not all of us are the same. You may remember me as one of the millions of CMDR's named Jamerson who back in the day kicked your insectoid butts but lets not dwell on the past... After all you were the ones who shot first back in '84.

Let us move forward in the spirit of togetherness and harmony to forge a new galactic civilisation. An equal partnership if you will. Where trade can flow freely, peace can be bought to the stars as we explorer the galaxy hand in hand. All of this can be possible I know, if we just put our differences behind us and move forwards.

As a sign of our willingness to integrate with your culture we would of course give you direct access to some of the most powerful positions within our 'Bubble'. It could even be arranged for you to take over as the moderators on the Frontier Forums, you could eat the current ones if you wish or just tear of their heads. Both options are fine with the human race if it keeps you happy!

Enough of me rambling, I'm sure you would like to hear from some of the other Humans so I'll attach some of their additions to this open letter providing I don't get to drunk at my 50th tonight, thanks for the card by the way, I didn't know Thargoids celebrated birthdays. Anyway, we should keep in touch, do you skype?

All the best

50 again huh Bran?............

Well, happy birthday buddy, whatever you do DO NOT OPEN THAT PRESENT FROM MAYNARD.

Except TJ. Have you seen how long he's been on this forum? He's like some kind of Neanderthal. :p
Do you remember the "Chain Story" thread? A FAKE T.j was responsible for the creation of the Universe (although Coutts was responsible for the creation of said fake T,j!).
 
I like that... Also Thargonian Janitor has a certain ring to it too! :D

Thanks everyone, having a good day so far and I've not even had a drink yet... ;)


Edit: Ziggy the last time I went to a club was to see Paul Oakenfold at Cream, Liverpool... I was a fair bit younger but I can still 'bust a move' when required so where are we going? :D

Happy 50th, and if it is a really good day may you have many more of them.

I am sure the lamentable lack of drink will be corrected later on.

Sorry Ziggy, seems I went to the wrong club... I had a couple of drinks while I waited then moved on to another club... Then another and so on.... Got home about an hour ago but it seems I misplaced Friday?
 
Happy belated birthday Bran. 50 is the new 30 so party on!

As for you petal heads, I remember our first encounters back in 84, a couple of Military Lasers slung under my Vette will soon whip you back into shape. See you soon.

Happy New Year! ;)

*looks at the clock*

Huh, I guess it is Saturday after all. Time for some coffee and deep space exploration.

PS: Three days since having spilled beer on my keyboard and rinsing it off, it now seems to be fully operational again. [up]
 
What graphics settings or mods are you using to get that screenshot so cartoon looking? [weird]

Maybe just circumstantial lighting?

The one of the Python over the alien wreckage? No mod's at all, just a straight screenshot from the game and then a bit of text added in Paint Shop. It's possible I might have tweaked the gamma if it was a bit dark.
