Grey Area	Posted - 2004.06.11 11:54:00 - [1] Edited by: Grey Area on 11/06/2004 11:55:26 I've been playing a year, and never been big on combat. I lost my probe in EC8-P8R trying to steal the contents of the loot can from under the Ascriber's nose (poor little probe, just wasn't QUITE quick enough). I almost cried when I lost it, as: 1. I genuinely love the probe 2. I'd had it a good few months 3. It had two 24% cargo expanders on it at the time! This was back when even the lowly pirates dropped decent kit - I think I got the two expanders off two Arrogators! Also, although the Probe is still a great ship, it used to be even better - I'm pretty sure it's base speed was nerfed about 6 months back, as my Probe is slower NOW at level 5 Minmatar Frigate than it was THEN when I only had level 3! Long live the probe! I'm actually training Tempest just because it reminds me of the probe in appearance... ...well, that and for the big guns of course. ========================================= * I'm ALLOWED to cheat. I'm a STARSHIP. * =========================================

Just don't say I don't have the SKILLS to comment.
