4 hours for a Light fighter Fuel supply. Which is the shortest decay suggested.
What can Players do In 4 hours.
A Fighter can fight PvP ~ 8 fights
Pirate Can make 10 million credits (Grimly)
A trader can make 160 million credits (10 million per run)
Police can make 24 patrol runs around NY
Explorers can travel through 20 systems
Freelancers can get 16 missions matching there statue level.
Junkers can collect 54,000 units of scrap metal (~45 cargo hold)
66,639 passengers can be bought at Matt. and Sold in NewTokyo (LuxLiner)
Now...That does seem to be alot of production time for 4 hours.
Now going on about the selling of the h-fuel. Yes all base will have some. But the price will be fixed. Companies Selling H-fuel will give the Player the opportunity to buy fuel at a lower price. Plus the not all bases will have the high specialty fuel.
The game has had engine problems where I cannot cruise. I call it the "Type J-93 engine" syndrome. This is an upset when you have to get moving but it doesn't discourage me from playing. Plus the component wouldn't be required to mount until they reach to level ~35 by that time player should know the basic rules of the Disco.
Darkwolf475 don't worry about double posting...the more the merrier enh?
So true Food and such has been a thought on my mind. Generally Most players stick around Populated places and so it can be contrive that they would dock when there hungry. If you want I can test that out;)
Oh yea tons of stuff could come from this Like making...death a deletion of character now that would be a one sided show. Or Personalized ships...(once a month update for all those who summited ships) OORP issues will be gone...cuz no one would be able to tell...Actual tangible Government?

It's been said over and over and over again: More restrictions do not make better pvp.
Get over it, fuel requirements are a bad idea.

That's likely the funniest thing I've ever seen posted on this forum.
Take a look around. You can go into almost any system and find a level 75+ player in a battleship who doesnt have a hint of RP, uses weapons from enemy factions and nomad battleship turrets, has a tag completely opposite the faction his ship is part of, doesnt have an ID equipped or even in his cargo, and spams system chat with "lolwut, pwned" crap.

That was short... :)
Does the rules that if you don't pay a "Donation" you will die make Trading better?
edit: Yes... I know about them...and there being selfish but hey we play the way we reflect on life. Those who want to be the best no matter the cost...generally ends up on Korrd's List...

I hate to so blatantly say something like this, but Tenacity is right. I'm sure this has been brought up several times in the past, and since you have split "No" into two categories, it seems that "Yes" has the upper hand, but it is outdone by 16 votes, meaning that this is a bad idea.
More restrictions do not make for better RP. More restrictions make for less fun, and that is all, and this is a game, so fun is the primary factor to consider. This would surely make more than several of the players here leave. I've seen some say it, even. It just wouldn't be fun to have to buy more things before launching, and it would definitely be annoying.
Please, let this die out, I don't think it will ever get implemented because of the controversy it causes...
EDIT: I think I seemed to harsh or abrasive. I apologize for that.
Thank you everyone - RmJ - 06-27-2008
The split in the NO's are to see the severity in the oppositions To see what influences the choice. I was going to put another choice for Yes, THIS IS THE BEST EVER! but that could never happen in a proposal that is unrefined.
Just because it's out voted doesn't make it a bad idea, it just shows it's unpopularity. I want to use history here but I already use Civil rights as an example. So maybe and quote? "Not all good ideas work in the time you invent them."
Actually I did let it die once but a rash of inspiration for other people made it a focus for me again. So I was more than happy to discuss with them.
Go figure

Thank you for the Awesome discussion. Never a waste to speak your mind. Never a shame for someone not to like it.
Thank you everyone - ScornStar - 06-27-2008
I think Disco is fun and I read the first post over and it sounds harsh. Id say I like the idea and I'd support it but there are many other things to enjoy here as long as its not restricted down to template characters only.
In short I'd love it but Im not going anywhere if its not done. Ill just stick to where the action is at or make it my self.
Thank you everyone - RmJ - 06-27-2008
personally I never like it much...until the component part came up...then i liked it... and when people were working it out I LOVED IT...but last night ruined it...I just wanted a debate over something that was a tough.
edit: I'm not to soft when it comes to approaching people with ideas, Im quick to the point, quick counter act....one of my many wonderful flaws:)
Thank you everyone - Asymptotic - 06-27-2008
we play factionlancer to escape, not to espouse.
