it hard to get ahead

Yeah, Its very tough to start out here. Its mostly because of fear of newbies capwhoring, which happens anyways.

Escorts also help, they give you that satisfaction of watching the pirate go boom. (I've had cruiser escorts before lol)

5. Try and RP as much as possible with the pirates. Some are nasty, no doubt, and will not talk with miners. Most are looking for RP as well. Try and make an interesting character, chat it up with the pirate.

Many pirates are lolwuts, and are just in it for the '2milrdai' money.

RP is not the solution for everything, sadly.

You will find out that everything here takes a while to get, wether it be fighters, or battleships.

Like I say, if this was a true RP server, ALL ships would be 'Special RP' but they would be $0.

Your RP character would earn you the ship.
