    Default Control Room & Pilots

    Been on for a couple of hours tonight and just want to make people that may not read EF aware that pilots have increased there ticket prices by an additional 5ped and so there now 25ped.

    There is quite a lot of anger going on in the control room at present but just thought people may like to know.

    I have not been able to assertain the reason for the increase but it appers that oil price has gone up and that pilots are a little annoyed that they are having to wait a long time to fill there ships up to return back to the planet.

    I Just wanted to bring this to peoples attention & hope that it is not going to effect the weekend events

    OMG!!!! ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!
    comeone sabridges lets go and kill this damn pilots!

    I meen they cant just come here and demand money, maybe oil price go up, but the damn pilots can mine rite?? or are they just retards!! And its not like we FORCE them to stand in twin and flood, twin would even be less laggy if we removed the pilots.

    Amen!

    Come on, guys. Keep it civil.

    The oil price was higher this winter/spring when CND opened. The ticket price was insane to start with, but quickly decreased to 20ped. An oil price of 115% - 120% shouldn't raise the ticket price to 25 ped.

    My opinion.

    Oil crisis on Calypso? Who knew...

    Haven't been around long enough to remeber it being 25 peds...*hopefully* this will mean increase in oil prices, otherwise miners are going to get wooped on both ends.

    But I'm home, so no worries Thx for heads up...

    hmm my post seems to have been deleted?

    Anyways my two pecs is I wont fly with to CND any more - period. This situation is just ridiculous.

    Im absolutely positvely so fed up with the pilot cartel crap I have now resigned myself to giving up and not bothering. I got to the point of just paying 80 ped for a pilot to fly me down so I am down - 2hrs + wait due to the new "cartel" pricing.

    Good luck pilots - lets start selling oil for 125% miners - see who bitches the loudest - oh but being in a cartel WOULD be childish no?

    Completely agree Hoffy.

    It may allow ppl to fly down in a shorter time and with a less than full ship.... no idea where i stand on this..

    I think it is unfair to raise prices again but shop around maybe not all will do it...... the cartel thing was a BIG no no before on EF so seems as though things have changed???

    Payed 25ped here too...
    I asked to the pilot the reasons of the price increase and the answer was: I fly with 3 passengers to avoid a too long wait. Ok I can pay 5ped more for this but at the hangar what did I see me and 2 other the passangers that made the run with me, the pilot and... woilą another passanger (found at last second said the pilot) and we payed 25ped each, I didn't want bother or wait for another fly so now I'm at CND now.

    I pmed another pilot on FL and online in thatr moment and asked if hear something about fast fly for 25ped (with full ship ) and yes he said, it's common now, MA won't fix the problem of long wait and we fix it in this way.

    It's real economy and everyone can make his prices but, till there is olny one pilot available in that moment because the others are waiting to start the passangers search there's no concorrence and no good service
