Hello folks,
as we all know necomers like to explore our growing universe. Their problem is often that they get stuck in space or on planets with low population.

So this thread has the purpose to collect people who are willing to give them a lift for free. Do you have a transportation service and are flying to different planets on regular base ? Or a traveller who visits different planets for hunting/mining/whatever and often have a spare seat on your journeys ? You are willing to take a newcomer with you for free ? Then please sing in in this thread including your avatar name, so a newbie standed on the wrong planet can contact you via the player register. Every potential pilot decides on his own about conditions etc as this is not an organized group, but a central place for newcomers to have look when they need an interplanetary ride. Mothership / privateer owners are highly welcome in this thread. Everyone who joins the initiative gets a +rep.
When we can get enough people together i hope we can improve the newcomer experience somewhat, because they don't need to rely on sweating for their evaluation period, but can try the free missions etc on every planet without the risk to get stranded there for weeks.

Service offers:

Hmmm, i've actually called newcomers few times before travelling for free tranportation to other planets....
So, count me in

I can't give any time commitment...but if i see in this thread some one looking for transport, I might be able to pick up!

The reason for new players: I don't want to interfere with other players who are doing transportation services!

The following would apply:

I was able to fly few newbies thanks to this thread. Jennson did you abbandon it or you have planned to keep it alive?
 
I have had a few people add me to their friends list and get a lift. Many a new exploration hoverpod in the hands of new players thanks to this post :D

I will keep it alive, i am just very busy atm as i have some new responsibilities irl. Nevertheless i think i owe some +reps and going to update op. Still looking for supporters.
 
I'M a newbie and i was just wishing for something like this in the game. I can't believe there is no service like this already in this game. I started on Calypso and now on Arkadia. I really would like to be able to travel and see the other worlds without having hitch a ride from a player. Maybe give newbies a temp.travel pass to see what world we would like to stay on.
 
Great idea. Keep up the good work.

I´ve done the same for a while. I think those new players should get to see what else happens ingame, before they get bored of sweat gathering.
