Gumpy is right- I chose the route of making little fleet and trying to be a miner- it isn't doing well seeing as how my undefended targets are now giving me 2-20 deut per raid, hardly covering the fuel cost of moving 1-2 small cargo ships 1 system over.

Tis' a dark forecast in this server

i would have to agree resources produce very very slowly and most people cant stand waiting for resources on extreme, so standard really get on peoples nerves, but i will keep playing and hope some changes are made

I agree, especially number four.

Game speed is really a problem in standard universe . Everything is too slow .Speed change would be really nice , I think.

I'd just like a base income for deut... the fact that people who never even started playing have no deut income (and thus have zero deut after about 3 hits) is incredibly irritating... the base income ***** but it makes it necessary to fleet to get res, especially seeing as how many farms there are around... I'm much more into the standard than the xtreme just because its incredibly irritating how xtreme favors the old players to such a RIDICULOUS extent... there is no way I will even get to the top 100 over there because everyone is already bigger and just hunts the newbies like me... its so freaking irritating I can't stand it for more than a week at a time...

Dude thats quitter talk! If work didn't have to send me out of town early this week I think I would have broken 100.... I promise you, even without knowing you I can say that if I can do it, so can you! You're even in ranked 8 alliance... surly they can help you with anything you need to get the job done!

I think its fun trying to avoid getting spanked by fleeters daily, its a challenge

The speed is the reason the STANDARD (I stress standard ) universe was created in the first place. It's supposed to be slow and easy to help a more laid-back playing style.

Dont quit because of that. I play both servers and yes standard takes time, a lot of time. But in xtreme I started back in March and worked my way up to where I am now. A lot of people have targeted me also in the beginning but both areas take time to build up what needs to be done. So dont let that stop you!!!
