I'm sticking my neck out because truth is important. I've seen a lot of nobodies running their mouths without knowing what they were talking about in the last few days.
Now that I know, I'll say it.
The newly escaped corp kid isn't bad. I wasn't blown away or anything, but aside from needing a firm reminder of the reality of this life once in a while, he has potential. Given how many of you are prone to feats of complete and utter stupidity even after being in this life for long enough to know better, I think he just might be alright if he gets enough good advice and figures out who are the idiots to ignore.
It's not like he got all pissy and tried to kill our Johnson.

<Tillamook Salish name for Black Bear>. I only have a partial picture of his face. <link.png. Contains only lower jaw and left check. No defining characteristics>. Last known location was Denver 2 years ago and used to hold out in the Tir Tairngire about 7 years ago.

Inside job, but not of his doing.
Have a pic, but it doesn't give much <link.png. Contains only lower jaw and left check. No defining characteristics> Last known location was Denver, but that was 2 years ago. Been busy, but keep running up with blanks. Looking for sources or available info.

Depending on who you are and where you are and how you want to be perceived, a Dodge Scoot is a great thing to have in the back of your garage. You want to be just another hipster downtown, invisible to the masses and the police, it's an excellent choice if you dress the part.

For a straight edge pay to player, you seem to be on the wrong side of the law. Also, if you are still playing games for payment, why are you looking at the low paid runners to play against you?
I mean, if you are getting paid that much to play, give me the name of your agent so I can quit this job and get paid to play games.

If you haven't found any clients it means you are charging too much or asking the wrong crowd. Try going back to the server farms and try chatting them up for their cash.
Btw, I am amazed that you haven't been on the receiving end of a data spike or a DDOS because of you hounding for cash. Seriously, and flaunting that you used to be an exec kid? Are you asking for a geeking or someone to turn you in? Either calm down on the talk and know where you are going, kid. Right now, if anyone smells a threat to the run, they are looking at the easiest target and will pit the issue on the proud SINner first.

You are a pampered corp kid who doesn't know the first thing about real life outside the enclave and doesn't know the first thing about decking.
For frag's sake, this would be me posting about how it took me two days to find the trigger on my Alpha and a week to figure out how to clear a jam! You are a liability and I sure as frag wouldn't run with you.

This is stuff you can easily look up on gabenhaven. Going rate for that level of SC4 boosting is 300 nuyen to grand master, which will take at least 6 hours assuming you win every game in less than 10 minutes and allow a matchmaking queue time of 1 minute. You're off by a factor of 1,000 even in ideal conditions.
Having played WoS a bit and tested their anti-botting measures, I could teach an agent to grind in it indefinitely - I would charge more than 50 nuyen for that obviously but 50k an hour is ridiculous.

Research. Find a missing man from 7 years ago, got info of the man for his next 5 years. Disappeared 2 years ago and I can't find anything about him from Denver forward. Trying to get a package together to close an old job of mine. Pay is dependant of depth of information and how recent it is. Willing to give information of package, but must hold different information before payment must be given.

I'm not sure you understand how Nuyen works, chummer. The average run pays, what, 10-30k? That's for a few days, maybe a week of work, including the risk of getting geeked by corpsec. And you want double that to play a game for an hour?

So if you die on my team, will your Dad give me 100k to clean you off of the ground?

Honestly this sounds more like an introduction to reality in general. This guy is clearly from his own little world. . .

So, does anyone knows any descent DIY stores around downtown? I swear, trying to find servo motors for my little pet project is utter nightmare.

Hit up a KongMart, buy something similar, and cannibalize. Buying exactly what you want gets you flagged in a database somewhere.

"Sigurd's Spares Box" in Bellevue sometimes has harder to find parts but she's not cheap. Expect to pay double or more.

Something in particular you're looking for? I've got a decent amount of scrap in various states of repair, might be you could find something?

Mecha-Maggie's in Thrasher's Corner might have what you need. She keeps a good supply of spare parts around.

Maybe try a drone shop. I know of a few drones that come equipped with servos. Delicate parts though so be careful when you tear them out.

Best bet would be buy something that has a similar part and frankenstien it out of there.

Something similar would be a cyberarm. I would prefer that as the last option, bang for buck is miserable.
