I made up my mind long ago. Time compression is fine. Logic breaking delivery is not.

Truth is far too valuable to be left out in the open. Guard it closely. Hide it well.

Well, then it's a good thing you don't make the decisions, otherwise this game would be lame.

A mailbox on my ship would be useful and make more sense.

At least put a mailbox in the cantinas.
PVP Balance nerfs should NEVER affect PVE.
I don't care if you got one-shotted, leave my skills alone!

Mailboxes based on Santa delivery is "lame". Maybe you could get it by "special delivery" or something, as suggested here. But a mailbox inside a ship is just bad design by nature. Quite automatically so. The object itself defies any sense of continuation.

Comparing a Star Wars game to Santa is lame considering both are made up to begin with.

For someone who obviously likes sci fi, you sure lack imagination.

Makes as much sense as having your mailbox on a plane.

If 4 companions can take your ship to different corners of the Galaxy at the same times, and deliver items to your inventory without ever even seeing you, and that somehow qualifies as time scale compression, why is mail on the ship any different?

You want logic? It docks at a space station while you're on it. Makes a bit more sense than gathering missions, frankly.

ok so just imagine your ship has a 'cargo bay' which connects to a delivery shute directly to your storeroom. Even out in space you could dock with cargo ships who deliver packages
