Wouldn't tossing the "/l" function make people more prone to lolwuting?
I mean, nowadays as a pirate, I can stay in systems for eternities, however, with system, I revert back to the "You have 20seconds to hand over the cash before the police get here and I have to kill you to make a point."
If traders weren't so hellbent on making profits, perhaps they could slow up if they got caught by a pirate so those of us trying can actually talk to them without the constant.
"What" and "Heh, try and kill me"
Edit: The classic, let me just transfer these funds and *calls BHG on comms*
Booster Shove.
It makes our time hell, and I certainly don't like to pew pew. I hate telling a person they have 20 seconds. It just ruins the fun. But, sometimes I have to do it: they're a powertrader or just a bad sport.
/l Is essential for better RP.
So it's not the function that ruins us, it's people not trying.
/l Is dynamic. You don't scream at a person in a crowd of people to give him cash. You whisper.
Plus it's terrible to go to private chat.... scrolling

Why would you want to RP in /s when half of the people in the even hardly populated systems are going to come into it somehow, powergame it, god mod it, and just generally ruin it all?
I use /l to avoid retards.

' Wrote:Indy RBS captainOxymoron much? :laugh: Sorry, have to make that joke somehow. You just presented yourself a target.
I think RP is declining because of, I'm sorry to say, people like me. I stop a trader, and I don't even get to spout a second chat line before I get killed by a silent Liberty gunship-and-fighter swarm. I don't have time to RP, because PvP is being shoved so far down my throat.
I suck at PvP. I don't like to PvP.
But it seems like it's either do nothing and don't RP, or actually (god forbid) INTERACT with another player and have PvP forced upon me.

I feel your pain but rp is not for people who want to sit infront of manhatten and listen to comms. Your rp is what happens to you, and if you are not the part of an action, you are not going to enjoy the rp associated with it.
So in essence their are multiple rp situations going on around you, you just need to be around 15k of them to enjoy them.
/l is an integral part of rp I think.
PEACE

As it pertains to PvP, yes - for everything else, system chat works just fine.
