When I first landed here, it was '08 and 816 A.S. respectively, the version was 4.84 (I think:unsure:) and oh, boy, was it a system shock :wacko:. Then I had to quit for more that two years and am back for little more that a week. It still is a system shock:D, but I really do not mind .
There are things I don't like, things I would change, which is expected. Overal though, this is a special place.
Do not presume to learn everything you need/want to know in a week or even a month - it can't be done. Believe me, I have tried (I was not wearing glasses in '08:wacko:). Give yourself at least 3-4 months (better 6), go slowly, read some stuff from the general discussions and the character stories, go visit some faction channels, take a peak at what the devs are brewing for 4.86, and for heaven's sake do not argue with Tenacity:cool:
You may like it or not, you may even - in time - change a thing or two, leave a mark, but remember - Disco is for the long haul. It is a game - with its main purpose to make you relax and have fun. It takes time to get used to. It is worth it. Patience is a virtue, they say (if i only knew who "they" are), so be virtuous.
Good luck!

<span style="color:#FFFF33">"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."</span>
