Do ID restrictions increase RP, or do they limit it?

They limit RP, but they limit issues stemming from lolwuts abusing RP freedoms

Freedom to do anything is great when you can trust people not to abuse it.
Unfortunatly, the reasons they're there in the first place, is because we can't.

When I joined Disco, there were not even ship size restrictions on IDs, shortly before the server cap was raised to 128, I believe. When I was editing the Alster Union's information page, the Alster Union being the former Unioner faction, it always brought me a smile to see a fleet of Unioners in Corsair ships armed with Nomad cannons bombing a RepEx Rheinland battleship. Those were the days...

Restrictions? They offer specific RP to be tried and tested in a much more controlled environment. As you can see, IDs are getting opened after a long period of testing. Keepers, now Khara. SCRA. Either the testing period was a success, or the closed factions just died out.
