Awww, what a shame though. This probe was doing some really cool stuff, it's kinda iconic in my head.

Profitable pirate ventures need to be built on rich trade routes so they have big, fat, juicy merchant ships to plunder and pirate.

What competing powers does your pirate area sit between?

What are those powers doing to patrol the waters and stop their trade ships from being plundered?

Whose the most famous pirate hunter in the area? What's their methods and what're they doing right now?

Whats the latest 'big haul' the pirates have pulled in? What were they rumoured to have found? Similarly whose the last pirate to have been caught or killed? How?

This sounds like tonnes of fun, hope your players enjoy!

The doorway effect. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doorway_effect Known psychological phenomenon 😀

If you get a chance, some of the studies around it are really interesting.

For me personally, it was the farewell message on RIF specifically mentioned Lemmy.

Don't know if some of the others apps also did this but it would certainly have helped.

Can't recommend Disco Elysium enough, it's a truly brilliant game.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the righteous is right up there too.

Pillars of eternity games are a close second to that.

Thank you buddy, think I'm going crazy, was sure I'd not seen a downvote button of RIF for a long time.

Think I mist be losing my mind, was it just certain subreddits that didn't do downvotes? Anyway, thanks for the answer.

 

So, coming from the world of RIF where downvotes haven't been a thing for quite some time: what are downvotes for in Lemmy?
What am I expressing when I downvote?

I don't agree with the post? I don't want the post to gain notoriety? I don't like the sentiment or the way it's expressed (even if it's factually true)?

Help!
