' Wrote:You and the factions are the ones with a selfish arrogant attitude, I'm offering an RP way out for the victims of factions excesses.


Think of it this way, how many properly RPing battleships have been chased out by their home faction?
None, I think.

In the case of the Corsairs, I can name... 3 Battleships, that RP as battleships, they fly around in their ship as their main account, or one of their main accounts. They're welcomed by all the factions.

There are probably.. 8 nonRPed ships, they're not OORP, they're just ships that people have that they use when we need the big ships, used for defence only. They're also welcome.

And then, there are 3 active OORP/badlyRPed battleships. They're asked to correct their behaviour, 2 of them are being 'watched' and 1 has pretty much been condemned by the factions.


As long as you behave properly, you are left alone. ie, the factions are not being selfish, they are inforcing good RP.




An example:
I undock from Crete, I see 1 huntress 1 praefect, 2 new faces, I scowled thinkig ah crap 2 more cruisers. I scan em, they both seem fine in terms of equip. So I think hmm maybe they ain't so bad after all.

Then one of the cruisers, asks
Cruiser "hey wna PVP?"
Fighter "do you have a fighter?"
Cruiser "no"

A little part of me died when I saw this...

Exactly my point, glad we agree.

Lets fight the oorp factions together, as the [CSW]

so maybe now you understand that we will not scrap all indie cap ships. but force them to roleplay them .....
and csw is oorp faction, faction from battleship from all sorts and types has no roleplay, sorry.

One at least, the HMS-Churchill.

so. one and do you saw someone from factions complaining about him ???? i think no. because that ship is roleplayed .....

What exactly happened with the HMS Churchill?

The ship was always RP'd, because I rp, that's why I had to declare it rogue.

It can't be party to blanket policies that ignore RP.

edited. i read it wrong.

what exactly happened ?

' Wrote:anwer my question, has someone saying in game or on forum again that ship when it was roleplayed ?

this thread is about indies who dont roleplay. who only sit in their ships and shooting everythign without any roleplay behind it ....

No, this thread is about indies who are disenfranchised by the faction leaders.

If someone is acting oorp it is a sanctionable offense, report them.

If their not leave them be, or interact with them.

but don't tell every indie cap ship owner they have to register or be KOS, because when you do you are nothing to me but another oorp player.

As an example I was smuggling cardi with my liberty cruiser (liberty built version of an outcast cruiser) junker, I land at malta, I get challenged by Raul Sanchez 101st if my ship is registered.

I tell him I can't discuss this on an open channel.

His response is to tell me I am a corsair spy and KOS.


That's absolute oorp crap. The 101st is now nothing to me, an oorp faction as bad as any oorp indie.

Erm, if I remember correctly, the QCRF policy on Capital ships is just a simple registration to know what/who's out there. Doesn't even involve "pvping them on sight". Why didn't you register? Don't tell me because it persecutes independents (Unselie put it out as a carefree form)...

...More likely, you are just being selfish and irrational by declaring all registrations as ridiculous and unfair, and that your characters won't follow anything like that.

Do you have the same quarrels with House laws? How about... Nomad licenses. Those are registrations essentially, what are your thoughts on them? Surely they persecutes independents, because they *shock* have to be registered to legally carry nomad equipment.

Edit: Here is Unselie's registration offer. How militant/oorp/agressive towards indie is this?
Quote:I don't want to regulate anything, because there really doesn't seem to be a need, and I generally do it on a instance by instance basis anyway, but I would like to know what's out there...
My RP for it is that any BAF ship not in the QCRF is under regular Admiralty commands, and as long as they don't do anything ridiculous, I'm fine with them.
