Until told to stop by an admin I will continue to Roleplay with my camera ship and if told to stop I will consider something seriously wrong with this server.
Flying around as a deaf-mute does not appeal to me. I've had some great RP with people, even as I flew around their guard system. I've also had some great RP with fpsdoug, he blew up my gunboat, and then I came at him in my camera ship, followed him around, and then posted the whole encounter under the title of "A day in the life of a Corsair". He loved it. This gets chalked up there with "no player may be in more then 2 system owning factions".
I have actually had in-game RP communications with the player who started this topic.
He was doing a fantastic job of roleplaying an unmanned survey drone, and it would be a real shame if anything got in the way of that.
I'd reccomend;
Keeping up the RP you're doing.
Decide from whom your probe originates. Eg. Liberty? Nomads? Kappa Robots?
Keep to regions that your chosen faction *should* know about. For example, stay out of guard systems, and any regions that are considered "secret", the location of which your group should not be privy to.
Eg. A Bretonian probe shouldn't fly around Omicron Gamma, because Bretonia shouldn't know where the Corsair home is. If they did, it would have severe repercussions for the server.
Maintain an entirely passive stance.
As far as I know, the fundamental laws of the Server are enforced fiercely. Low-key laws such as restriction of rare and mostly harmless ships aren't likely to be enforced with as much ferocity.
I'd wager if you did everything perfectly, never caused trouble, and never abused the ship, everyone'd probably turn a blind eye.
In otherwords, I suggest that your unmanned survey drone should fly "under the radar" in every sense of the phrase.
I don't approve of any ship being exempt from RP. I think Camera ships can be included, just as I am always determined to include Admins in RP whenever I see them nearby.
I wasnt thinking of where my drone was from in particualr although leeds just happened to be where i had gotten to with it,
I managed to capture a very good fight behind Leeds between [OPG] tagged corsair ships and two Outcast Fuentes brothers. took a long time to come to a close and im glad i was able to capture it
PS: thanks whoever changed its name from -=[(o)]=- to Nameless. i didnt have any credits to do it myself
