Just a few thoughts regarding Discovery - Dab - 09-19-2006
Yet, you keep asking me why I don't do it your way. I respond. Your bringing those replies on yourself. If you didn't keep trying to make me see it your way I wouldn't have said those things.

im not saying Dab is a bad person for wanting multiple chars....hey be my guest....im happy playing my one character.....hey good times and fun for all....god knows im sure there would be a big stink if even some of my "ideas" were implemented but hey sure would be neat at least from my perspective...so please Dab relax

Once again im not forcing anything on you.....obviously you are afraid my comments might actually gain some support among the Discovery gods of creation.....please put your ego away for 2 minutes.....can we do that? I really dont think you have anything to fear....

I don't think your idea will gain enough support on the server for anything. Very very few will support that idea, and those are the ones who don't play much. Most of the regular players aren't going to support it, so I have nothing to worry about. I'm just mad someone is trying to tell me that there way is better than my way of playing. You can have an opinion, but you try to force it onto other people.

Byzanium stop double-posting.
I think this bickering has went on enough. PM each other instead of clogging up forums.

Sigh, i am not for the last time forcing anyone, as usual it seems you are blowing things out of proportion.....i wonder tho if the powers that be might consider some some of the stuff that i mentioned........ :rolleyes:
ps: DarkOddity can i persuade you to share your signature with me? lol

Byzantium, your ideas will surely NOT gain any support among administrators or players here. One of the few cases when I'm fully on Dab's side.
I also have multiple players on Discovery (or had, cause I'll hardly log on before the wipe). Everyone has. There are people who have 2 or even 3 accounts and use not even 5, but 10 and 15 chars swapping those accounts around. What's wrong with that? Most modern MMORPGs allow for multiple characters. Social-type games might not, because of direct connection between you and your character. But Freelancer is not a social sim but a space action/roleplay/sim game, and having multiple characters owned by one person is absolutely OK.
Accuse Dab of ego-boost? Did you read a few old Dab threads and thought we all hate him? Well, no one is ideal, but he's done more for this community than many.
To end this discussion, I'd just say that max allowed number of characters per account is not in any way related to the mod. Every server admin who has IFSO installed may set this number to 2, or 1, or probably 0. Any number, but no more than 5 (doesn't work for some reason).

My Opinion on this matter: (I'll weigh pros & Cons)
Topic: Limiting to one character per human player.
Pros:
1. RolePlay becomes more required and easier to do for your one character
Cons:
1. Inability to "choose" your means in any situation (IE your stuck with one ship nomatter what)
2. Inability to enact new ideas and keep your RP Progress of current character
3. Requirement to "start over" if you want to RP a different character.
4. Server population goes down due to lack of ability to have multiple characters.
5. Inability to Role Play multiple personalities.
Pros |--------------|-| Cons
The Pro/Con Metere says it all.
Side Note: About my signature, I can make a signature for you, you take the picture in-game or supply some pictures you want molded together to make a sig and I'll slap it together for your, the cost is 25 Million in game credits though.
Just a few thoughts regarding Discovery - Fellow Hoodlum - 09-19-2006
Like it just the way it is thanks ... Two accounts gives me opportunity for ten characters
just about enough of a handful for anyone to keep up with.
Just the one, when everyone decides to be a pirate, yeah that would make for some
reeeeaaaallllyyyy interesting gaming ... Derr, NOT ...

Just a few thoughts regarding Discovery - marauder - 09-19-2006
Well I sure as hell am not sticking to one character.
Sometimes I'm in the mood for causing havoc and terror, thats when I use my phantom characters.
Other times I feel like trading or killing nomads, thats when I use my [IND] characters.
My [ELF] character is there for when I feel like confusing everyone.
My outcast character is there for when I feel like doing some smuggling runs or hanging around alpha.
They maybe your opinions but I'm stick of seeing you mention them, and thats just in this thread.
Like jamez said, stop doulbe-posting/spamming and use the edit button.
