Title: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Jeff123 on October 15, 2009, 23:28:25
WHITE STAR LINE has been remade as a Virtual Transportation Co. (VTC.) Named after the real life White Star Lines, it does better at not sinking its first, second, third, (and so on), ships, has safer ships and some newer types of ships, they have TITANIC II, OLIMPIC II, BRITTANIC IIII, White Lady P&O, and so on, they operate as a VTC on Ship Simulator, It's fun sailing with them. I'M THE CAPTAIN OF MY OUN SHIP! :captain: I'm pretty good at sailing my ship too. Now if they only had a military version of it! :police:

WHITE STAR LINE's site is

It's always welcome to see another Star Line.

This SS forum is really becoming intergalactic!

Ah, WM, don't give him a hard time :P

It was patriotic of him to name his VTC after a real American steamship company.
White Star was an American company from the time Ismay sold it to J.P. Morgan in 1902 until it was sold to Cunard in the 1930s.

THANKS ALL! I have been on SS for quite a while, so, I'm not new to it, And...
THERE IS ANOTHER VTC WITH STAR LINE IN THE NAME!? :o :o :o
Woah, I never knew that. Well, at least THIS White star line doesn't sink it's ships as soon as they get them.  :lol: Also, the real life White Star Line was a Brittish AND American company, and my ancestors were Brittish, Scottish, French, and (OY) German (WWII is why I put "OY"), yet I live in America.

take it easy with the capitals and smilies, and go easy on white star line, their plan most certainly was not to sink their ships, and i dont believe everyone would like kind of talk about white star line
Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Kapn Jonah on October 16, 2009, 02:36:47
Yes, there are many "Star Lines", i own one of them, Blue Star Line...
Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Jeff123 on October 16, 2009, 02:48:48
I know their plan wasn't to sink their ships, but somehow, they managed to do it, the captain of the Titanic wasn't taking enough percautions to keep everyone safe, for example.
Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Kapn Jonah on October 16, 2009, 02:51:00
It wasn't exactly his fault, as he wasn't even on the bridge at the time, plus, it was pretty much all the designers and builder's fault that the death toll was so high, the went for beauty rather than safety...

Starlines we have
Blue
White
Red
Grey

Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Kapn Jonah on October 16, 2009, 03:11:10
Actually, there is only White and Blue now, most of the others changed their names :P
Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: matt5674 on October 16, 2009, 06:00:32
Gray Star Line is no longer active so it collapsed and Orange Star Line is now Olympus Line, and from this quote of Jeff's:
TITANIC II, OLIMPIC II, BRITTANIC II
These are the Olympus Line's flagships (Olympic II is now Olympus)

We should have a, "All the Colours of the Rainbow...Starline" :lol: :D

Also, Just to reply to the above ^^

Capain Edward J. Smith was a very experienced Master. In fact, it was said he was being paid the most in the world, at that time.

Personally, I think half of it was down to the sheer size of the Titanic, and her sisters, in that time...Take the many incidents all three ships had. I personally think they were all ahead of their time. Maybe you could compare them to Concorde.

The same could be said of a Kamikaze with 35 missions.

Post by: Wave Music on October 16, 2009, 09:00:59
Well said!

THERE IS ANOTHER VTC WITH STAR LINE IN THE NAME!? :o :o :o

There are/were:   

Blue, Black, Gold, Grey, Green, Orange, Magenta, Mighty, Pink, Purple, Red, Super, Yellow & other Star Lines.

Some of them are/were "official" with their own forums & were announced on this forum; some were not "official" (without own forums) or just one-day-wonders on MP.
Title: Re: WHITE STAR LINE
Post by: Jeff123 on October 16, 2009, 11:18:45
Wow. Well, I can tell you this, "White Star Lines WON'T be a one day wonder, It's been 5 days!"  ;D
Also, Olimpic II had it's name changed? Oh well, that at least leaves the name Olympic II open for the takeing. :2thumbs:
I SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THE "RAINBOW STAR LINES"! :doh: Oh well, Now Rainbow Star Lines can be your's if you want to start a VTC. GOOD LUCK!

WHITE STAR LINE NEEDS CAPTAINS! We need any skill, rookie or not, you can help. We have a variaty of ships (not all are listed), like the ocean steam liners, cruse ships/ferries, fast ferries, car ferries, retired tugboats used for hauling small loads or inland bardges, container ships, AND MORE! (note: we do not ship oil, fuel, gas, or any other flamable liquids/gasses, for the safety of our members' ships/crew) We do, at times, use tug services to help our ships get into port in a safer manor.

Hey!

I'd join but you don't get a confirmation email, therefore i cannot login!

You need to fix this if you want to be succesful, also, think about using these sites to make a nice forum, rather than Webs.

http://smfforfree.com/
http://forumotion.com
http://freehostia.com

Since your just starting out i'd go with forumotion, its more user friendly for beginners.
