Apparently people are watching more YouTube than BBC (no shit) and something has to be done! But what? Make better content? No. Get the government to force YouTube to promote the BBC on your feed! Didn’t know about this? Me neither. Watch this, it’s brilliant. youtu.be/Naruaf0MsSI

⁉️A contentious QOTW maybe?
⚔️PvP in Elite; some of you love it, some of you hate it.
🚀What, in your opinion, is the difference between "good PvP" and "ganking" or "griefing"? What would you consider "good PvP"?
🪐If you partake in PvP or not, we'd love to hear your thoughts.
🎙️Until Tuesday!
