    Oh sorry, I must have missed the memo! Haha I thought we were trying to change it to LTTC for Linus Tech Tips Conglomerate.

    That's actually pretty good and could solve our current issues with getting the name changed on the RSI pages.. I like it

    Thanks for the positive feedback about the manifesto! I'm happy I could contribute to the group in some way

    So I'm curious... With all the talk of piracy, er, "surprise salvaging," and bounty hunting, will there be guidelines for members to follow? Representing the UOLTT with the clan tag in front of your moniker could mean trouble when you decide to "surprise salvage" a member of another large organization. To prevent large scale retaliation, will there be preventative measures within the rules of the organization?

    Just a couple of things to help clear up the confusion surrounding the LTI (Life Time Insurance). It was only available to backers before November 26th 2012. It was also avialable for those users who purchased and registered prior to the November 26, 2012 for the next 12 months on extra ships purchased (ended Nov 26th 2013). [As per Star Citizen Wikia] In order to combat 'insurance fraud' ships are sold with a hull ID number, which must correspond with the insurance registration number. Thus, in order for the LTI to transfer, it must match the hull ID. Therefore these are only transferable through legal trades. If you steal/capture a ship, the insurance is effectively canceled. This happens because once a ship is claimed for insurance, a new hull ID is issued and therefore a new insurance registration is issued with it. This applies to ALL insurance and not just LTI. Claiming on your insurance involves a time consuming process. The more frequent you claim on your insurance, the longer the process takes. This is designed intentionally to be inconvenient with the intentions of avoiding insurance fraud. I recommend that anyone with questions takes a look at this helpful FAQ. http://starcitizen.wikia.com/wiki/Frequently_Asked_Questions

    If you sign into your RSI account and go to "My RSI" -> "my hangar", you can see what you own and what type of insurance you do or don't have on it, as well as other perks.

    If it has LTI on it, then I think it would make more sense to trade it (to another person), because you'd probably get more out of it then just "melting it down." LTI's are transferable and I'm sure they would only add value to your trade.

    How about a motto for the organization, like most real-world military organizations do? (Do we already have one yet?)

    I applied RSI Handle: WyzGuy; Ship: Origin 300i

    I think Lil Chillbill was referring to Pistol from Tek Syndicate.

    I did read your comment. Doesn't make you any less of a hypocrite when you made that snide remark.

    Funny coming from someone who created a topic about a video(s) that he decided to click and watch. Irony anyone?
  13. Wyzguy
    Thanks for the reply, Glenwing. Sounds like I'll just have to take my chances!

    This is brilliant! Very nicely done. My favourite feature is the glass window to show off the build. Just don't drop anything onto it! Haha.

    Hey everyone. I am gearing up to take a swing at building my first PC in the winter. I'm not trying to build an inexpensive system, rather an upgradable system - and this is where my concern/question comes from. I am constantly stumbling across articles about Intel/AMD road maps. From these articles, I am gathering that AMD is ceasing development for AM3/AM3+ socket motherboards, and Intel apparently ceasing their socket chips all together in favour of BGA. What I fear is dumping hundreds of dollars into a AM3/AM3+ or LGA CPU and quality motherboard, only to be in a situation that due to no longer developing these sockets, I cannot simply upgrade my CPU, and rather have to spend another $200.00 - $300.00 on a new motherboard in addition to a new CPU. Basically, what I am asking is - 1) am I reading bad information, or misreading it altogether; or is my thought process of upgrading onto an existing motherboard good on paper, but bad in real world? I understand that in the tech world today, nothing lasts forever. But I feel if I spend the money on quality components such as PSU, motherboard, and case, these can be the base for future upgrades and will enable me to spend more on items like my CPU and GPU down the road with new releases. 2) From my understanding of said articles, AMD will continue using its FM2 sockets for the foreseeable future. Is it a good idea to go with the older FM2 socket chips (i.e. Athlon X4) to tie me over, or even the current APU series, and hope that AMD releases a quality gaming CPU on the FM2 sockets. 3) Should I wait for now until new sockets are released and spend my money then. (I have no idea how long it usually takes for a replacement to hit the markets when AMD/Intel begin to switch from one technology to another. I'm still kind of new to this!) I just want to say thanks in advance to any helpful comments you guys leave for me. Also, this is my first time posting here on these forums, and I hope I am not rehashing a topic that's already been answered. If so, sorry!
