I am just confused now, is it possible to SRP request a Barge?
And any hints for me? This will be my first SRP request, however I got time and want to build up a background story but I am seeking for hints and tips.

That I don't know. Someone else from staff will have to answer this.

Well, Barge isn't anything small, you'll need solid roleplay background for it, and plausible one on a top of that. Involve as many factions as possible, the right ones, which'd deliver materials, help you construct such a giant ship (mobile base, in fact), local police to protect construction site, bounty hunters...
Assuming ofc that you plan lawful barge (which's the most plausible inRP).
Not saying you're going to abuse it, but be aware that admins are pretty strict about the use of the barge. I remember in one instance a player had SRP'd a barge and it got taken away for jump trading (outside of his RP platform.) As a with all SRPs, the word in the middle is roleplay, not money, and the ship should be motivated by a well built story.

I have serious problems with things being motivated by a well-built story, and not credits especially since corporate, capitalistic RP is based upon credit generation. Seems like bringing OoRP goals into it.
Past that small hiccup, SRP should generate activity and more roleplay, not longer forum threads IMHO.
