1.1 million points? Thats not that much.
I've gotten far higher than that farming thousands of ares ships from their shipyards, and even beyond me was A Yacht Called Sapphire who got over 16 million points farming nearly 7000 iocrym sentinels.



Also might want to work on formatting your posts in a more... clear and comprehensible manner. Your misuse of the colon (":") makes your posts hard to read. In many of the instances where you use it, a comma (",") would be appropriate.
Your topic title and title post also also leaves much to be desired. Perhaps it would be best if you just sit down, and think about what you want to say before you actually say it, so as to be able to make a post and topic title that people can understand without having to sit re-read for several minutes before they can hazard a guess at what you mean. Most of what you post tends to be in a near-stream-of-consciousness state, which is very difficult to understand. Especially when it seems to be riddled with in-universe references and roleplay/fanfic-like writing.

Now I understand that english may not be your first language, and as such, you may be using an online translator or relying on some basic english classes, but you could at least lose the roleplay/fanfic and stream of consciousness style of writing. That along would make your posts much easier to understand. If you leave out the extraneous details and prose, it would do wonders for your posts. Basically, say only what actually needs to be said. This allows the reader to see what point you are trying to make, as opposed to having to sift through all the extraneous junk that doesn't have any pertinence or meaning. Furthermore, taking a more mature attitude about things is more likely to get people to take your posts seriously (Saying "OOOOOOOOO : It's ON : you and your skillz...... " comes across as being very childish, and to be entirely frank, I didn't take your post seriously).

Your posts and posting style come up a lot on IRC, due to people trying to collaboratively decipher what you mean in your posts. People are having serious trouble understanding what you are trying to say, and thus tends to result in confusion of what you're asking for or trying to say. As a result, people are significantly more likely to ignore, pass over, question, or provide unrelated responses to the posts and threads you make. Instead of promoting activity by other users, this behavior can actually stagnate activity. I know for a fact that I have been posting less specifically because of your extremely frequent posts being so difficult to understand, and thus so non-constructive. I don't know how to respond because I don't know what you're saying, so I politely ignore them and move on. However, it has lately come to my attention just how wide-spread this problem is for other people, and so I decided that something must be done to improve your posts.

Your posts compose 1% of the total posts on this forum. That is 20% of the percentage required to be statistically significant. Your posts are also a statistically significant portion of the posts in "active topics". Yet very few, if any, of them are clear and easy to read; the obtuse style of writing makes them difficult, if not impossible at times, to comprehend. A post of gibberish is meaningless, and contributes nothing constructive to the general discussion. Normally, such posts would be deleted, as it really is spam, but we understand that you are trying to say something. We just usually aren't sure what it is. I mean, it would be great if we could actually understand them, and you could contribute constructively to the community; that's what this post is designed to help you do, bring attention to the short-comings of your writing style, and allow you to correct them. It benefits you because you can then get appropriate and timely responses to your posts, and it benefits the community because we would have a constructive and active member of the community spurring active posting.

So for the sake of the community and yourself, please stop, think, and compose what you want to say before you click the "Submit" button.

You give me inspiration because you are a wealth of information and as are some others but the only way to get the rivers to flow is to stir up the currents.

If you searched me out you would find that my use of the symbol : is a "trademark typing" , I can not help it .
I try to not do it but I also do not realize I am doing it.

And I thankyou for your awesome clues to gain points

No problem, just keep working at it and you'll overcome the habit sooner than you think

[BTW, mathematically speaking, farming the lobsters is much more efficient, because of their high point value and spawn rate vs. that of deimoses and phoboses; my scores were more of a byproduct than the primary goal; I was simply trying to kill the most phoboses]

Actually : no.

I will keep my thoughts to myself then. well... not really I have a huge network that likes my :



* I started the post because I thought the score was very high.
Obviously I have never paid attention to the scores in previous versions.

We aren't that network though, so please don't abuse the ":" here, that is all. Thank you.
