I am in time out over in the corner because I STORED TO MUCH! Pack rat syndrome sucks. Oh, fyi - when all your Freelancer Buddies play in one spot, and you can't play - LIFE PRETTY WELL SUCKS.

Allied Exports OFFICIAL homepage is up and running, although still crude. Working the bugs out will be an ongoing process.

Visit it today at: <a href="http://www.allied-exports.com/">Allied Exports Homepage!

(Let's hope that worked - I have never posted a link in the reactor before.)

Yah, Reg the server's owner posted the address in the console news, but the last time I saw it, I was helping someone do a storage transfer, I had a hold full of c10 guns the trade screen open and a bunch of IMG and GC fighters climbing up my a$$.
I didn't think to take a screen shot, doh!

I have a MP storage character. I evidently stored too many items on him, causing my files to be come corrupted. The server admin was gracious enought to reset my accounts. The first thing I did once I got online after the reset was set up a second storage character. I put half my goods into this second character.

Now, when I attempt to connect to the server, the following sequence happens:

Select Server, "Loading", attempt to pull character selection menu, "Your connection to the server has been lost..." - then I can't even select the server again.

I know that the server is up, I see a ping rate (80-110) and people online using it. My question is - Are we limited to a set number of items PER CHARACTER or per person?

Any help would be gratifying. I will also be posting this in the Server and Multiplayer forums as I think it is applicable in all 3.

Justinian, there is a "bug" involving too many items per character. I forget the actual number but I believe Regulator has also had problems with this. I'm pretty sure he has a thread regarding this issue. Do a search for it and you should find it.

THE RAVEN

Its History: Ravens were considered trusted messengers between the living and the spirit worlds and have been held sacred by Asiatic peoples, the Koyukon people, and almost all native American peoples. In the Bible, Noah first sends out a raven to test the floodwaters, and the ancient Norse god Odin relied on ravens perched on his shoulders to serve as his eyes and ears. A medieval Irish treatise on magic lists more than two dozen prophecies that can be based on a raven's behavior. And, of course, Edgar Allen Poe immortalized the raven's otherworldly powers in his famous poem.

How can you tell a raven from a crow? A raven averages 24 inches in length (while a crow is smaller), is glossy black, has thick shaggy throat feathers and bristles on its nose and upper mandibles, a heavy, long and curved bill (a crow's bill is smaller), a wedge shaped tail (while crows' are fan-shaped) and makes a hoarse "kraak, tok-tok" or croaking "cr-ruck" sound (a crow has a "caw-caw" call).

Where would I find one? Ravens are found in a variety of habitats including mountains, deserts, rugged coastal areas, tundra, grasslands and forests. The only places you might NOT find them are Southern Africa, Australia, New Zealand, South of Nicaragua,Planet Malta, Omicron's and the South Pole.

What does it eat? Its preference is carrion, especially dead sheep, cattle, rabbits, and fish, but it will take a variety of other "ordinary" foods, including nestling birds and eggs, rodents, shellfish, insects, seeds, berries, grain, ants, locusts, lizards, snakes, partridges, and puffins, and LOTS of Cardamine.

A raven in love? Yes. During mating they can be seen somersaulting, flying close together in a formation, doing barrel rolls and diving like Blue Angels! They perch together in trees, preen or groom each other, rub their bills together. To test the suitability of a mate, the female acts like a helpless fledgling, mimicking both the behavior and voice of the begging young. Her rationale seems to be that if the bird can provide for her when she nurses a fledgling, he can totally provide for her and the others as well.

When does it build its nest? Usually in February. It gathers twigs, branches, roots, moss, wool, rags, and hair on a base of mud and dung, and builds its nest on cliff faces, in tall trees and old buildings. Or on a docking ring.

What do a raven's eggs look like? The eggs are various shades of blue, spotted or blotched olive, gray and brown. The clutch consists of three to seven eggs. Incubation or hatching is in 18-21 days with the male feeding the female as she sits on the eggs. The fledglings stay with their parents for 6 months. Or the Parents get fed up and ditch the little ****ers

What about its family life? Ravens live in family clans or territorial groups. They mate for life. Their life span is between 30 years in the wild and 60 in mild captivity. A mated pair is often accompanied by a juvenile who assists in daily family life.( Hence the little *****)

Does a raven relate to other species of animals? Yes. Ravens have a highly developed sense of humor. They play with both siblings and with other animals, such as wolf and coyote pups, otters, and owls, usually in the form of playful harassment. Project Wildlife has had reports that ravens even play with people!

I seem to recall that the raven didnt dodge very well and got his *** handed to him almost as many times as a Valk trying to fight off eagles. An eagle....now there is a Majestic creature....

A VERY FRUSTRATED CEASAR HERE!

I can't connect. Brief version:

Storage Bug, Mordred resets accounts, transferred some to another char, now no connect. Process: Select Browclopsia, "LOADING", and when the Character selection screen begins to come up, "Connection Lost". Attempts after that, without restarting, "Please Wait..." & "Connection Lost...".

Attempted Solutions: Complete uninstall/reinstall Freelancer, defragged harddrive, scanned for viruses, Begged for second reset of accounts (done! thanks Mordred), tested other servers (connected to all 1st attempt, no worries).

Questions: Is this a typical response to a banned person? Is it possible to get a DIFFERENT MP ID # (freelancer assigned the same one after reinstalling)? Has anyone else experienced this kind of issue, and if so, what corrections were made?

Thanks!

Problem fixed. Accounts deleted at my request, and I am able to log back in, albeit - poor as a church mouse.
