Hi guys,

Many thanks in advance!

Hope you had fun and like to hear your opinion, was it any good? I have to wait until June 6th... Such a looooong time...

Just to whine a bit... Still don't have an alien legacy and even worse: I cannot start another launch because I don't have the spacesuit collection anymore.
Not the worst thing in the world, I know,...rather this than live in Moore. Hope all members from that area are okay!

Thanks for your gifts, I am trying to send you all what you need, is there a daily limit of how many friends you can gift as I keep getting a msg saying that's all I can send today but still always have ppl in my friends list to send too that have not yet been sent anything.

I've updated my sig. Thx x

 

[Arne]

Hi friends!
I just want to tell that I'm still around and playing every day. But I haven't really got the time for keesing track of my gifting, so it is somewhat random what I send.

I want you to know that your gifts to are really appreciated - thank you very much. I don't have any really urgent needs so I mostly collect for later use.

While some Trekker purists may take issue with the changes the filmmakers made to the Star Trek canon ... gee whiz was it good. I think any franchise is only as good as the villain the heroes have to defeat and this film has a corker. Cumberbatch's character is right up there with Darth Vader and Norman Bates. The writers gave the cast exceptional characters to build on and they were all terrific.
Yes, living in the desert has its drawbacks (like summer days of 110 Fahrenheit plus heat), but living five minutes away from an IMAX theater more than makes up for it.
Cheers,
Tom

Darth Vader? Blasphemy!

 

[greensmith]

Darth Vader? Blasphemy!

No offense, UM/UMP/UM3, but the "surprise" surrounding Cumberbatch's character is about on par with, SPOILER ALERT "Luke, I am your father." It will be fun to see what JJ Abrams will do with Wars now that he has two Treks under his belt.
Aunt Beru: Luke's just not a farmer, Owen. He has too much of his father in him.
Uncle Owen: That's what I'm afraid of.

I have a trading question I want to pose to this forum:
I have a (non-forum) neighbor who sends me something I don't need every single day. Do I:
1. Not send or return any gifts to this neighbor and hope he gets the point?
2. Occasionally return a gift just to play fair?
3. Delete the person as a neighbor?
What would you do?
Cheers,
Tom

I have a similar neighbor... mine thankfully *occasionally* sends a useful item - which I naturally reward with hitting the return button... In addition, about once a week I attempt to send a flight related item that I estimate could be useful to him based on his level. A couple of times, he's just hit return on the item which then benefits me by helping me build up my warehouse store.

Edit: To be clear... he usually gets one flight related item a week... and on the rare occasions he's helpful, he gets more. I figure that's a healthy balance which doesn't take away too many items from my forum friends who have clearly defined wants/needs and who are much more helpful on a regular basis.

Hi Tom

This has come up before and this has happened to me also. I have ignored their gifts, sent them gifts and in the end deleted them.
There are so many neighbours non forum who return/send gifts in a sensible manner so why waste one if our precious 20 gifts appears to be wasted.
Hope this helps

Helen

You can give 20 gifts a day but no more than one gift a day to any one neighbor. Yes, having more than 20 friends who regularly send you gifts is a challenge. Here's how I do it:
First priority are forum neighbors who send me an item I ask for in my signature. If I need Fuel Hoses and you send me a Fuel Hose, you're going to get a gift that you need.
Second priority are forum neighbors who post regularly and ask for an item I can send. They may not be a high enough level to send me a Fuel Hose but I believe game vets should encourage newbies.
Third priority are non-forum neighbors who send me an item I need.
Fourth priority are forum or non-forum neighbors who send me many gifts that I don't particularly need. (See my other post about this!)
Hope this helps,
Tom

I just had to defend my avatar! I didn't get into Star Trek until ST: TNG probably because that was on TV when I was growing up.

The ones that I have I occasionally throw a bone, but I'm pretty sure they are mostly Android people. I feel more bad for forum users that I don't get to often.

But the best are the ones that I know are lurkers. For example, I have seen Rsorour 's gift list and I have the same person and it isn't a forum member...There is one person that is Level 40 and he'd be a good addition to this forum.

 

[Uncle Mans]

So....alluded to in my Monthly to Daily post...I am going to have less ability to be connected to the forum today and the next few days. I'll randomly send gifts and hope that it helps you all!
