    Welcome to Terra​
    Hello, people of the Antares Frontier. For many months I have traveled throughout this crazed sector, stopping in places such as Katune, New Tetanus, Aldrovanda and the Mawl. Throughout these lands, I continue to see the same issue. The strong prey on the weak, the evil take advantage of the kind hearted, and fear of injury, of losing all you hold dear, lies around every corner. To this, I say no more. I, Sarah McKinley, and a few of my close friends and partners, have been hard at work developing plans, laws, and surveying the construction of a new colony in Antares: Terra.

    Terra will be unlike any other colony in the sector. Instead of wooden buildings and huts, we have spent many hours of hard work and many thousands of dollars to create large city structures including a gymnasium, a hospital, a large indoor marketplace, a factory building, and a shooting range. Instead of forcing you to live in a small apartment constructed by the colony itself, the Terran government will give building permits to civilians interested in becoming citizens of Terra, and you can make use of our construction drones to assist in building a home for yourself. Shop owners will be extended a similar venture, and can place their shops in the Terran Marketplace, and make use of our factory and landing pad for cargo and construction of mechanical wares.

    There will also be many jobs available on Terra. From handling our new but bolstering fishing department to planting and harvesting coconut palm trees and banana plants, from becoming a member of our new Terran Security Department to joining the ranks of our elite Task Force, and to even assist in running our gymnasiums, ranges, and hospital, and prevent these facilities from running into disrepair; Terra has a job for you.

    Terra seeks to bring a new place of civilization to Antares. A place where you can feel safe from harm, and live your life as YOU see fit, and not in the shadow of some greater evil. Terra is a free place, Terra is a safe place, and we're ready to get to work.

    ________________________________________________________________________________________

    If you are interested in joining one of Terra's many work positions are it prepares to open it's doors to the public, please follow the form below and fill it out on this page. If you have any questions, please fill them out below as well. Depending on the circumstances, or any questions you may have, you may meet in person with Ms. McKinley or conduct an over-Starnet interview. You can apply for any position, and we'll see if we have it available.

    Contact me personally to set up a meeting. We'd be very interested in having a data-storage center on Terra.

    You named it Terra?

    That's in bad taste. I mean, people died!

    It is obvious you haven't even heard of colonies such as Liberty Mills, Union, or New Chicago, neither bother informing yourself if yours 'deserves' such a feat. Your statement is false.

    A Floran interested in medicine. Alright. I'll be sure to set up an interview, and have you meet our resident doctor in charge of the Terran General Hospital.

    What are the coordinates of your colony? because I cant find them anywhere on starnet, and you said you would open 'later today' more than a week ago.

    Terra has recently opened it's doors to the pubic. We have a second Starnet thread set up to show our coordinates, and some of the jobs and things we have available on our bustling new colony.

    "My God in Heaven, please forgive me for mine failings and the rage compelling me to speak, but speak I must. Shame! Shame be upon you, Miss McKinley. How? That is what I must know. How can one hold their fellow man in such low regard as to mock the tragedy and suffering of so many? Terra.. Earth, the dead husk and former jewel of the Sol Sector. As we all know, Earth has lain prostate and silent for no more than eight years, yet you and your ilk feel it right to mock or perhaps simply steal the name of our beloved homeworld for your own distasteful purposes. I plead to you, as a simple, Christian man, re-think this. There is still time to change titles, and to issue apologies . Do not pilfer the name of our lost home, you do not have that right."

    The building permits thing is especially reminiscent of how my colony functioned. Plus, considering the events of Earth, making a colony called Terra is like naming a spaceship Titanic 2.

    Just my two cents.

    - JuliusMayne
    [DOUBLEPOST=1439149205][/DOUBLEPOST]It is also worth noting that had I not known you I would've seen this colony as a nostalgia trip for my own. The job templates, the buildings, and various other places just scream of my old style. I wish you luck, but if I were to make one comment.

    Use lethal force on any and all people claiming they can destroy your city. It's a mistake I made once, and look at what happened.
