Because they'll blow you up otherwise. They make the rules, not you. You don't have to like it.

That's the spirit. Especially since Eppy claims that all he is trying to do with his policy is to restrict OORP capships.
Everyone wonders why independents are so suspicious. But when you can get blown up even if you have RP written and your in-server RP is perfect, wouldn't you be suspicious of any concealed ulterior motive that might be had by the faction in asking all indies to register their ships?
I'm not saying this is the case and there is an ulterior motive. But it's the reason why Indies are so against the idea. There are a lot of suspicious "things" surrounding it.

I see what's the issue here with nooblet, its not the fact that he should just post the link to his roleplay on 101st its the fact that he's required to.
I believe, and well, I'm sure most of people do that neither nooblet or Laowai arethe issue here, its all the capital ships that don't have their forum representative.
But I don't blame the pro register people that this topic has tons of semi flame some hate pages, but I do think you're responsible nooblet for taking this on the new level and defending the people that aren't even registered here.
You could have just said "Sorry, but my roleplay is well known, I am not reporting my ship and I have my own principles for it, good day sirs." but you went on explaining to people how you think it's a bad idea.
I personally think it's better than some radical ideas we had in last few weeks and I think it gives the chance to the people that don't have a rp story behind their capital ship character to get creative and write one.
Seeing you take a stance here and reading this all actually made me realize that you won't back off from your principles, whats good - but what's bad is that by fighting for people that have capships and fly them wherever they want you're actually destroying the principles you stand for. The principles of roleplay and bettering the community.

The whole 'Im already well known and can't be bothered posting' business is ridiculous. It's a single post. That's all. Less work than 20+ pages of debate. He isn't trying to take your Destroyer from you, he just wants it noted that you have it. Why the fuss?

Thank you for realising this. My RP isn't well known unfortunately. Otherwise people would have realised this sooner.
I have weighed the decisions. The path I take is one that supports my principles to the best of my ability. If you really want further clarification about my principles of anything else feel free to PM me.

I think so too. Sounds like an elitist thing. Meh. I'm not well known on the server for my RP.
One post. Why would I waste my effort here if it's so easy. It's because if he is allowed to do this, I wonder what further powers factions will be granted. Currently, he wants the power to bomber-whore a capital ship until it bows down to the 101st idea of RP. He wants a compulsory sign up or die. Wrong. Detrimental to RP.

There are regulations. They're called rules. You can help by pressing your screenshot button, hosting the aforementioned screenshots on some free hosting site and typing out a post to go along with it in the sanction thread.:rtfm:
Stop the personal attack.
You have a bloody wierd view of what is a personal attack and what is not.
It's been said time and time again that the factions HAVE the right to tell you not to fly their ship if they so well please.
I already know what you're going to reply to this: "PERSONAL ATTACK! FREE TIBET!" But here's the secret, you do your fair share of personal attacks as well.

What's wrong with that?
When you buy a car, don't you fill in paperwork? Don't you need a license?
Now... a huge warship... shouldn't the Admirals of the fleet know of your owning said ship?
Now... ignoring that...
What more powers factions could have?! The Rheinland Military already take this miles further! Why complain about a single post when you cannot gain access to any Rheinland ships without permission.

Oh no, most of the House authorities have "do this or die" policies. Will you be complaining that they are pvp whores also?

The metaphor of the DVLA was brought up already. It's somewhere in the thread. Admiral of the 101st defence fleet does not need to know.
The RM did not make the OC capship restriction policy. I'll dig up something I said earlier in another thread if people start about the RM and KNF setting a precedent for this.

It doesn't affect me. When it does, I suppose you'll see a thread about it.
Frankly I don't go into house space much either. And my capital ship collection is rather limited.
