Being a repair ship seems to work the best. Just blowing up stuff works as well. Don't ask admins for it, they're drop you down to -7e14 pres.

Simplest way is to engineer a lot. gonna have to find planets that aren't built or what not. I think you still get engineering pres in newbie, but I dunno for sure.

The current prestige calculation is as follows:
Prestige =
+ ShipsDamaged x 3
+ ShipsCaptured x 15
+ PlanetsDamaged x 1
+ PlanetsCaptured x 5
+ Repair x 2.5
+ Construction x 1
+ Scouting x 1
+ Kamikaze x 5 - Currently disabled from gaining.
+ Jumps x 0.1
+ BonusPrestige x 1
- FriendlyFire x 3
- Scrapping x 1
- SelfDestructs x 5
- PlanetCollisions x 1
- Resources Lost x 0.0025
For MetaVerse the fastest prestige gain(providing people get hurt) is generally accepted as supply. Combat prestige requires you actually doing hull dmaage. Any armor/shield damage doesn't contribute. Contruction prestige is another steady source of gain, however, in Metaverse it's not so easy to come accross. I would recommend practising in Newbie server on different build techniques.
Planets captured is effective in an early scenario, although the gain is reduced to about 50% for neutral planets.
Bonus prestige is only gained from winijng a scenario map. There used to be a mission system that also awarded bonus prestige, but due to it being easily abused it was removed. (due to be replaced at some point).
