What would you do if not an Explorer?

[dannywhac]

Well, if we get the ability to walk round stations, I'd probably take a break from exploring, don some sequined hot-pants and pop down the nearest Naval Dock Yard to earn some extra creds.

Most likely Trade.

Thanks John [snip]

As a child, were you bitten by a radioactive anchor man?

 

[Glyphon]

I'd be a reporter I think.

Thanks John,

I'm standing here at Bananadock, Vegitarius and I have breaking news: There isn't much happening at the moment. We will continue to ... hang on, yes, there is an Eagle emerging from the mailslot ... it's boosting away from the station as you can see ... we hear the frameshift drive engaging ... and it's gone.

We've been seeing this all day John,

This is Ziggy Stardust, reporting from Bananadock, Vegitarius, back to you John!

It's only natural, as an explorer you always get a scoop.

I would be a merchant. Not trader. Merchant.

I would get a T9 with tons of cargo space, and design a route of 20-30 stops. I would buy rares here, clothes there, palladium further down, sell the rares, get resonators, sell clothes, buy fish, trade the palladium...

A mobile mini market that goes across many systems, and all the factions...make decent money to keep the business running and pay operational expenses....but I would also be gathering information on things happening in the whole galaxy: news, missions, CG. And wherever it strikes me, get a ship in the local shipyard and run the mission or whatever interest me, then taking the T9 again and continue on my route, with a promise to locals that I will be back with that "Onionhead" on my next loop the following week...

Probably what I did while I was saving up for my ADS. Bimble about in the bubble with some cargo space and some guns, doing a bit of bounty hunting, selling cargo where it made a profit and filling the space with whatever was cheap. Maybe do the odd mission. Possibly joining the Imperial Navy so I could get a Clipper cos they look nice.

Almost certainly spending less of my gaming time in Elite.

 

[Varrag]

Well... to be honest, I am not doing anything after I've got an elite rank and quit exploration. I don't want to sound whiney, so I'll just leave it at that.
