[font=Book Antiqua]Pulled a 3 Hours Shift without even noticing how fast it went!
Was pretty much handling at least 3 People on different Chats all the time.
Peak hours can go crazy, I see. First, when I undocked from Erie, a new player
was looking for loans. So, directed him to Forums and Open Market Section.
Then moved into Hallam Nebula and helped a Pirate with his IFF problem.

Meanwhile, A Miner was asking where can he sell the Niobium he had mined.
After these, a Player PMed me, and he was from the Archy Server, so fairly
familiar with general concept of the mod, but had questions about the general
RP environment and certain rules on this Server. So, I directed him to Forums,
and also had a long chat with him explaining how things work around here.
Meanwhile, I moved to NY to see if anyone has any questions.

Near NewArk, I helped a certian person with an issue with his Researcher ID.
Soon after, someone contacted me, asking if a sitation was against the Rules.
The sitation he explained was kinda tricky, but a violation, but I suggested
he talks to the one who broke the rule before taking any further actions,
which seemed to clear their case and they decided to move on.

Funny fact, Someone actually asked me a copy of Rules I had in my Hold!
He had to have a 2nd look at it to make sure he haven't missed anything.
Although, I reminded him that the Ingame version of the Rules is outdated
and he'd better check the version posted on Forums to be sure.

Also, answered a couple of others' questions. One was about Trade Route
and another about usage of the Camera Ship. Later, I moved to Gamma
and got PMed by someone who was a bit angry about a Fight they had
but was not sure if it was a Rule violation - which clearly wasn't.
Still, tried to calm them down while talking to the attacker as well,
And after it was solved, I decided to call it a day and return to Pennsy.

When I got to Pennsy, I ran into a group of low level Ships who were
looking for help. Seems one of the Group Members was a player from
UK Server, with a decent knowledge of the Rules and RP, and was trying
to help the newer guys around. So they invited me to their Group and
I explained basics of RP, few of the necessary Server Commands,
and also a few tips about Mining, and then I realized I've been
up and running for 3 hours straight, so decided to log and rest.

I also got a Donation of 5 Millions from W.F.Cody-Equipment.Shop.
