Lancers and ranks

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

The more posts you can reply to effects the higher the rank
you can be given, however flaming detracts from the rank.

@grom, no i don't get it..

as for using lancers, i think its just that it sounds cool. its meant to be a whip-like weapon i think.

A lance, isn't it a spear or something?

I don't know what it means in the word Freelancer...The free I can understand, I'll ask dictionary.com...


lancer:

1. A cavalryman armed with a lance.
2. A member of a regiment originally armed with lances.

3. lancers (used with a sing. verb)
a. A kind of quadrille.
b. The music for this dance.
