' Wrote:Reading more than the OP might be an idea.
My intention was to respond to the OP. Responding to post 4 would have defeated that purpose.
Also I think people got tired of the Lane Hacker Blood Dragons with Krakens. Hence the system warping about.

It isn't?

It's Hellfire material.

It is? News to me. I could have sworn the ship predated their tenure.
Oh those quaint little Lane Hackers!

I still wonder why we need SRPs when a faction agrees to give away some of it's stuff. Sure, I can understand SRPs for people switching from an official faction to independency, like Karen Blume taking her Unioner 5 K with her (Which she got as a Unioner independent) to the Junker, but eh.

Anyways I think that the SRP is a pretty huge fail. Examination of the discovery community suggests that the proposed system in the OP would be similarly unlikely to succeed. Rules about being nice, allowing for witch hunts (I mean evidence gathering, such as the evidence "gathered" against Harvester 64 or what have you) and so on is generally ill advised.
Essentially systems which promote review and comment by fellow players in regards to haves and have nots is going to generate some bad vibes, man.
I would, instead, suggest something akin to the following:
1) Slap typical SRP stuff like cruisers and the like back on their IDs. That concept was a lolfail. Maybe 18 Spyglasses running around Liberty 24/7 will give the LN some much needed combat.
2) Red cells = 90% + White cells.
3) Make the Barge commonly available for sale.
4) SRPs locked down. Sorry RFP pilot who captured a slave liner.
Essentially continue to strip away more of the stewardship of RP burden, with all the social rancor that conjures, from the shoulders of the admin team and place it in the hands of the playerbase.
I think n00bl3ts point is perfectly obvious. No point in handing him more ammunition. I like your new perfro avvy (smoke)
Not tangible in terms of the point.
That is a a factionalised ship shooting at you as opposed to an independent, within the scope of the game environment assuming other rules are followed and immersion is maintained.
I agree with suggestions 1 and 3.
As for the whole being nice, review by the player base and more openness generally keeps things fair. Perhaps locking them to comments works? Either way, if the Administration is fair and has reason behind their decisions then there is little problem.
Also, what is my point Dusty, within the scope of your second last sentence?

Why in the world would we make denied and pending requests visible?
Everything else looks cool though.
