Watching the TNG episode "Symbiosis" and a conversation seemed familiar...

If you know the episode or have it, about 9 minutes in there is a conversation between Picard and the captain of the damaged freighter.

Reminds me of a lot of the conversations that go on in zone chat. Look it up if you can and have a chuckle.

    I lvoe the idea of these drug-addled morons flying around in a primitive space vessel with NO clue how to fly it or fix it when it goes wrong.

    "Does anyone onboard your vessel have the expertise?"

    "I don't know. Hang on, i'll check."

    "Where is xyz system."

    "Look in the system list."

    "Okay. How do I do that?"

    "Press "M" and click the "System List" tab."

    "Okay. How do I do that?"

    etc

    Lol, zone chat always reminded me of this episode, or Pakleds.

    Actually. That should be the in-game term for Noobs. "Pakled"

    or when you do a bone-head move instead of a loot drop you get one of these for your inventory. and when you sell it, YOU have to pay credits to get rid of it.

    Hmm, could do but personally I think the Red Shirts were kind of cool. They died bravely at the orders of their Captain.

    Yeah. They had to kill a red shirt and they had to make him British. I was so insulted by that. Thought "Great, they got a Brit in and he's pretty badass". SPLAT. Oh. He's a moron. DAMNIT! lol.
