Thur. Apr 18, 3050: Twice in as many weeks ComStar apologies for outages in near-Periphery worlds; their “best people” are on it.

That's pretty much the same answer I give to our users at work. "Let me check up on that and I'll get back to you." Yeaaah, right.

This is why I don't trust any tech in my mech that requires an Always-On connection. I'm not going to reverse engineer your tech, damnit. I use it to kill other badly made stompy robots piloted by pirates.

Their best aren't good enough. I've been having a ton of trouble getting messages out to The Rock. My cousin was in a demolition derby over there and I want to see a video of how it went. It's taking too fricken long!

Yeah but those periphery worlds are only like 0.0001 percent of the inner sphere worlds so they're going to claim the service is within acceptable tolerances.

Clearly, when I get HUD bugs, its because I haven't said the right prayers to the Holy Blake. Either that or the tech-priests messed up their incantations during their maintenance prayers. Oh Machine God, please watch over my circuitry. Omnissiah be praised!

Periphery is one thing - we all understand that. But now we're talking about a Class A HPG in solid Steiner territory. They going to blame this on pirates too? Its no where near Kurita space, so don't tell me its anything but their own lazy incompetence.

I've got contracts that need to be signed - I don't have time for C* Bullsh-t.

I heard some rummer or a garbled message from one of the worlds cut of. Something about a catapult with arms, but hey, you guys know how great the rummer mill is these days. :)

It's all just a big conspiracy. ComStar really knows whats going on. I heard from a dropship pilot who heard from a smuggler that [REDACTED]

OOC: What is happening is the Clans are invading the "top" half of the Inner Sphere and we dont even realize it right now. They have secretly allied themselves with the clans hoping to bring a weird techno-apocalypse so that they can come out as leaders of the Inner Sphere and gain total domination against everyone. When in reality the clans are trying to win and dominate the Inner Sphere.
