RE: Gallic Elite Police - Info - Miaou - 01-18-2014
GRN is allowed into Bretonia and surrounding systems, you are not.
You cannot go into Leeds or Magellan. Nor are you allowed in Kusari. You have the Gallic house and the Taus. That's it.
Now, you seem to miss the point when people keep saying "GRP is corrupt." You cannot just say "We aren't anymore." That's like saying Bretonians should all stop drinking tea. The Royal Police has and always been corrupt down to the core. With the war, the Royal Police does have an actual job protecting Gallia proper. There was even talks of them waging war on the council in Champagne.
I'm not tell you to go out and be brigands about it, but to deny the factions RP is you just abusing the ID to create something it's not.

GRP are corrupt no argue there.That is why we are not GRP but GEP,we might use GRP ID but our RP standings are not the same as GRP.Leeds and magellan are not of our concern unless GRN requests our support.As you read our rules there is no mention of Leeds or Magellan,even tau systems will be handled with care due to the tau decree and KNF.
We do not take it lightly at what we are doing and going to do.Just know we will NOT follow same RP as GRP.

I don´t see problem in RP group of gallic cops which are not corrupted. Maybe the best solution would be that GEP will not behave like whole police, but like some department. Something like when some RP military units, which are kinda special and not like regular ones.

Im not sure I see much point in this as activity in Gallia is quite small at the moment, the occasional trader and GRN ships. However this might spark some light upon Gallia and people may thrive there once more.....
RE: Gallic Elite Police - Info - Haste - 01-18-2014
A little feedback, if I may.
I'd like to ask you to try to be a bit more open to roleplay with unusual visitors. Simply repeating "You should leave because your ID is nomad" is a little silly. It's fine that you asked me to leave, but try to hide the somewhat out-of-roleplay nature of IDs.
And for the love of god, when you somehow manage to get a Gallic gunboat killed by a Sabre, don't complain about lag 8|
Oh, and maybe reconsider your stance on corruption. Even if "Elite" is a very fancy word to have in your faction name, there's a lot of fun to be had if you play a corrupt organization.
I used to play a corrupt-to-the-bone LPI officer, and it's a whole different playstyle from say a loyal [LN] pilot.
In Gallia in particular it would allow you to do a little more with the traffic you get. You'd be stuck dealing largely with the odd smuggler. If you're corrupt, however, you can stop and harass/fine even the most law-abiding of traders

Had some nice rp with one of your guys in Gallia who questioned us, escorted us a bit.
Was nice to see anybody around and to interact with you!
Kudos from the IMG| convoy!
And about all the people that say "Be corrupt, it is cool": No. It is not. It is annoying. It has so often been just a tool to piss people off. Lawful piracy (as in: unlawful lawful IDs) has always been a terrible fail concept, in my book.
So my advice: Just stick with being "the police", instead of leaving the core rp of "police" for the "corrupt" part.

Fixed that for you.
Seriously, if somebody wants to roleplay the most honest policeman ever, there are existing factions for that with supporting RP background, BPA, KSP, RFP, afaik unlike LPI and GRP, those don't have anything in their lore about being corrupt at all. The latter two do.

Thank you all for feedback and opinions,all are noted and we are still improving with the help of advice and mistakes.Corrupt concept is not for us and we stick to being Honorable Police Force,even if it is not "Elite" at this stage.

You can fix all you want, if a concept is a fail (and all of the "lawful piracy" concepts are), then people choose wisely to put their focus on better facettes of the faction. But hey... RP-police™ much, Mr. Thyrzul?
