Smiling Bandit isn't a permanent member.  But from what I can tell, he has a permanent invitation to just come on in.

Given some of his antics in the past, I'm not sure little things like having an invitation or not get in his way......

It's not an antic when you're given permission.    Takes away from his fun, and is exactly the type of Old Skool Social Hacking FastJack would do.

The comment could also be about how they each view how the Matrix should be. I'm having a hard time coming up with a way to explain it, but how they see "the rules" of the Matrix.

What are their views of the rules of the Matrix?

The best way i can answer is that Puck wanted/wants a free and open matrix, being able to exchange info at will and accessable to anyone, and fastjack saw the matrix in a similar vein, but both of them viewed it in a different way.... Puck as a okuta/techno and fastjack as a hacker. Thats the best way i can explain it....

Hope that makes it a bit clearer

   Huhhh, well what can we old fans say?  First Captain Chaos, now Fastjack, who'll be next to shepherd us readers/players thru the shadows only to fall from the heights achieved.....

       (a single bugle plays a mournful dirge)

Clockwork?

I kid.   Fastjack has been the voice of Shadowrun, so to speak, to me since I got into it. I'd love to see him get some Lionization and stick around.  I can't see why he wouldn't, he has the cash and connections to get it done without someone trying to get him.

Go read Storm Front.  There are...  Reasons.

[Mirikon]

Indeed. Age has nothing to do with it.

Bah, he's, what, 75?  Still a young buck!

[Dragonslayer]

Yeah, I know. There are reasons.  But I don't like them. It's not like the Crash that took Captain Chaos, after all.

Killing off two beloved characters between two editions would likely get us lynched at Cons.

So, in the interest of not dying...

I'm having a hard tome seeing the difference.

ok have just been reading the Sybil Virus thread (http://forums.shadowrun4.com/index.php?topic=11017.0) and am now thinking maybe Jack did reach out to someone.... Puck comment makes more sense if the sybil virus is a Technomatic disease, because not only has Puck been fighting Pax but Jack has also faced off against her.  Puck would have more experience than most with dissonant Techno's, having been both a White and also surviving the hunting involved with Pax.

Anyone agree with my logic or am i just reading too much into it ?

Great, an old fashioned lynching.  Now I'm homesick.

FastJack isn't dead.  We haven't found the body.  'Nuff said.

Home must be a very different Canada than I've experienced.
