It's got to the point that even in TP2 runs with everyone in bombers, I'll get a nan.

That's funny, cause my bbr seems to have the opposite. Like, my figbee is *always* in front because I *always* pull the guns/turrets off and load up on fuel yet I find I'm *nevver* the first blown up. I usually get 2 ABs in per run.

Next time you bomb or fb, one of you should turret the other and see if it crashes the server.

I turret very well. Just ask Spinoza about the time we rocked ass when I was on his turret and he was in a heavy scout.

And my bombing issues only extend to when I'm in the pilot seat.

We can't test it on Planet though cause it'd crash anyway

Way to turn a thread about noobishness into "look at me I rock at bombing"

* When I was a newbie I forgot to load my bombers AB until after I was in range!

My best action was hunting down hvy ints in my scout. I decided not to use the hvy ints our team had because i was thinking: missiles=more firepower
In my beginning ages i had 30+ deaths every game because of that.

Only because if we talked about my nubishness we'd be here all day.

Thinking fuel was wasted when I move. Not boost...
Trying to dock in the enemy base
Having brightness very low and ramming asteroids here and there without knowing.

Not knowing I was podded and still trying to shoot at the enemy.

I did that the other day! Went into a contested sector with two Ops, saw a green door and boosted straight at it. Didn't realise it was the enemy base till I was floating around looking at Pod Porn...
