Greetings Commanders,
Having not played the game for 25 years I've forgotten how to regain my 'clean' (wasn't me gov, honest!)
Anyone any better ideas than esc?
Cheers, Andy

Welcome to the friendliest board this side of Riedquat, Commander!

Jumping out of a system will cut your current bouty by half; repeat as needed. Beware, adding the Anarchies OXP makes it much harder to loose the heat - but opens other opportunities...

BTW, a bounty of 25cr makes you a fugitive.

Hi, WhiteSnakeTinston, welcome to the boards! Probably this query should be split off into its own thread, but I can't figure out if I can do that or not ... in the meantime, there are two quick routes and one slow one to a Clean rating (barring any OXP wangles like, for instance, certain services on offer in the Anarchies.oxp). Quick route 1: use an escape pod (but sell your cargo first). Quick route 2: jump to a new Galaxy. Slow route: just keep on jumping, keep clear of GalCop, and don't commit any more crimes (at least not where people can see you ...): eventually the Co-operative's statute of limitations will kick in and you'll be all square with John Law!

Edit: ninja'd (a bit! ;))

Shouldn't that be 51 credits makes you a fugitive?

Firstly, my thanks. Can smell the man-love, hope the felines don't get a whiff!
Secondly, I can't believe I'm registered as Harmless here, I've killed the Constrictor already! :)

Already "Mostly Harmless"!

The ranks on the board are not tied to your Oolite/Elite Rating - how could they be? :)

As you can see, some of us don't have Elite rankings any more at all...

...so far, the only one with an Elite rank on this thread is you, WhiteSnakeTinston - not that not having a rank is necessarily nice.

(What good is my name? Thus spoke the sword-toting nut-job... Still I will make company with creators, with harvesters, with rejoicers; I will show them the rainbow and the stairway to ***ELITE***.)
