Introduction Thread

yip this is the place …ok space is the place, but this is a great community.

For additional community engagement I have found this FB group of the Alliance of Galactic Travelers to be also very welcoming and supportive:

Pull up a chair and welcome to our little friendly part of the internet. Share your pictures, ask all those questions you were too afraid to ask elsewhere and have fun.

Couldn’t have said it better, although Reddit is nowhere near as bad as it once was.

Greeting travellers! I have been here a bit, but never posted an intro. My name is John, I live on the Monterey Peninsula, born and raised here. Currently employed as a technology analyst for local government, former no code tech class ham, KD6OCQ. The only reason I got interested in computers in the early 80’s was to play games, now here we are, decades later and I’m still hooked! I spent some time as QA for small game company, during the DOS years, attended a few E3 conferences along the way. I have played NMS since release and never really understood what all the bad press was about. For me the game delivered in spades. Add in all the updates and now NEXT, Hello Games is one hell of a good studio, IMHO.

Anyhow, thanks for letting me play with you guys and gals, this saga called Waking Titan I will never forget! :heart_eyes:

@Potatokiller , welcome! Happy to have you with us.

Just one question, my country have asked me to put forward.

Where were you between the years 1845 - 1852…

Speak carefully lest you lose your tongue :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Man I really hope that joke lands and doesn’t offend any famine victims :see_no_evil:

Hello to all ! My name if the gaming world is Hari Seldon (yes … that’s the main character of Isaac Asimov Foundation series). I am a Frenchman and probably older than most of you (70) and discovered NMS almost on day 1. I have been active in the first ARG (but still waiting for my Atlas pass 4 :slight_smile: and hope to help on the dreamers project. Just a newbie question how do you initiate a conversation with a dreamer once you have entered the activation passcode (e.g. prosopagnosia for the first node) ?

Welcome @HariSeldon hope you enjoy your time here!


Once you enter the correct code, the block will turn green - to replay just click on the same block again. Any grayed out blocks aren’t available yet, and white blocks mean they are ready to view and try codes on. Just click on a block and you should get a pop up. Hope that helps!

There are many here who are 50 and over. So you fit right in. :sunglasses:
After the activation code, we wait for the next node to turn white. You can click on the green nodes to replay conversations.
Glad to have you here!
