Not that you'll answer, cause you've been giving us the silent treatment lately!  But, how's Eve?  What brought you back?

Oi, i still check the boards every few months.

Dunno, I took a long ass break for a couple of different reasons, and in my last semester of college found free time on my hands again.

It's been fun, not much has changed really, and I really haven't missed much training wise. I managed to train up a Dreadnaught on Ageha while I was gone. It's been a blast to fly, nothing like laying waste to shit with big mofoing lasers.

Holy fucking shit.

Who's the offensive against?  Where's it at?

And at the risk of sounding like a whiny bitch. . . is CCP/BoB still cheating?

Just jam some more alcohol through your blood-brain barrier and let them have their fun.

Ok, I'm back in for now.  Getting use to things again.  Accidently rejoined EXO though.  Had planned on spending a couple days, not a hostile target while relearning things.  But, rejoining was just a two step process when I thought it was three.  Oh well.  I've only seen one flashing target so far, and that was a pod.  Didn't expect to see any though. . .  Anyway, I'm back.  I'll have questions.  Things have changed a bit.

But, at least I'm still rich.  Well, by one year ago's standards.  1.2 billion and about 5 BS, 7 crows, a flycatcher and a cerb.  So, it's just a matter of making my way to the battle front and figuring out which skills to train.  I want to get into the rigs things, I think.

Good!  I haven't worked this hard since I was in the food services industry.  There's no time to so much as scratch your ass at this job.  But it's very educational and oddly fun.

And the days fly by.

However while my call and chat quality is superb (my first two weeks I have the highest "Awesome Job" rating on record for a two week period), my number of calls and chats taken is a bit low.  We're supposed to be on one call and three to four chats at a time, and I'm typically on one and one instead.  So any day now they may tell me to stop showing up for work.  We'll see.

It's a great company though (hostgator.com) and from what I gather from others there who've done tech support it's a completely different world from most call centers.  Plus as long as your feedback percentages stay above a certain level, you get free food (there's a chef on staff for that).  And next week they're getting an Xbox360 for the staff break room (which already has air hockey, billiards, foozball, ping pong, and a MAME game cabinet).

Even though the thread's being hijacked. . .  :-)

I'm reading about jump bridges and reloading LO or something like that.  About not buying stuff in P-V.  And other stuff.  How's a newb to get to P-V, and what should he bring?  My stuff is spread WAY out and I'm just going to buy new stuff.  Where's a good spot to buy from that's close to the destination, and how do I get it out there?  I'm in Isanamo right now, on the edge of secure space.  It's like 20+ jumps to get to P-V through unsecure space for me.  I'm gettting the impression I'm doing this wrong.  Need some guidance please.  I'm sure once I get out there and start traveling in gangs, things will come back quickly.  I just can't hook up with the fleet.  I'm in a flycatcher right now.  Wanted to end up with some Cerbs and crows out there as well.  I don't like flying my missle/ravens any more.  Unless something's changed that makes them better now.  I just felt I was more useful as a flycatcher than a Raven back in the day.  Anyway, need guidance!!

I have no idea what you are inferring, sir.  ;)

Man, what do you take calls on?

Oh, everything from "tell me about your reseller accounts" to "why is my account suspended" to "my Wordpress blog won't load, I think I may have deleted a file, can you help me?"  Although we don't have to be able to help with code, if it's not too busy I'll usually take a look.

The "what do you mean I have to load up files, I paid you for hosting, make my website" calls are no fun.  Indignant idiocy trumps all.

I think we nailed all the questions last night.... but if there are any more let me know.

Remember that we are apparently moving stuff as a corp from 8-2 out to the staging area tonight.

Yes, all questions covered so far.  I've been working nights, so that was a no-go for me.  But I don't have anything up there to move. . . so, I didn't miss anything.  hehe

I'm in 8-2 and will make my way to P-V today at some point.

I called an EXO only roaming op for Saturday at 19:30 eve time. Mostly for the new guys that merged with us to get a feel for EXO.

Dunno if that fits in your schedule or not.
