They have plenty of fresh rookies still learning the Corsair way of life, hermana. Maybe they ran low on budget for instructors and are spending it on expensive maintenance of Legates, so they can't keep up with teaching them all, who knows? At least their capital fleets are still going strong and giving our enemies a lot of trouble.
I cannot act mighty about being any better during pre-Brotherhood days myself. During early days of flying I angered some hermanos by equipping ancient Outcast tech on my ship. I was young and stupido, and thought the weapon looked cool, ok? I could not even adjust my scanners properly, so Samura vessels appeared as targets and.... maybe I did not check what I was firing at and almost destroyed their escort ship. Everyone is born an idiota, but not everyone grows out of being one.

About Buonocore... you seem very eager to have a chat with him. Don't take his oversight of your callsign too personally. He is el hombre who does not get concerned over small details, from his point of view, at least, so he did not find it necessary to hire someone to fix your infamous title and just moved on. I am certain he already forgot about it. "Limited budget" my culo! He always has some for his elegant suits. It would not be the first time he did this mistake either. It took that cabron months to fix my name from "Flipardo" to the correct one, so I was a victim a mockery in Brotherhood, which does remind me of Alberto. His familia matter was done, so he moved back to Crete recently and said he intends to start some active tasks of his own. It's usually not boring to complete his tasks. Lots of his anger being unleashed at unsuspecting victims never gets old. Why not try it for old times sake?

In the meantime, vamonos, we do need to talk!

Respetuosamente,
Cesar Gutierrez
