The things I have got set up and want to do at this time already;(some are set in stone, others are not)
1. Talk about smuggling Artifacts to Curacuo.
2. Anti-Slavery Patrols. (Meaning going in to Outcast systems looking for Slavers)
<strike>3. Myself and the XA- have organised a series of events to come.</strike> Has been delayed for a indefinate time. Is going to be chased up.
<strike>4. Weekly Cruise events.</strike> Unable to perform them due to player numbers.
<strike>5. Run a internal economy.</strike> No longer running
<strike>6. To share Liners with in the group. (purposely due to the internal economics idea)</strike> Is going to be discussed.
7. To act as more of a support faction to Hawaii, Shetland, Baden Baden and Curacuo than just passengers.
<strike>8. Provide Summits at Curacuo.</strike> It would seem to me that only a few are serious about this. Otherwise many more seem to be acting in a way as to provoke myself aswell as make direct disrespect of certain others, including myself too. For that reason I not be running on. Unless I gain direct support from a varity of players to stop metagaming, unwarranted provokations, unwanted abuse directed at certain Factions and unwarranted disrespect.
9. Provide forum roleplay via scenes onboard Cruise Liners.
10. Implement a plan on making OSC's own ship line. (LF,VHF and Transports[1000:2500:4000] and maybe HF and/or Gunboat)
After a Little thought last night thinking about my last attempt and talking with two players, I think I should explain the above so you all can understand why for certain points.
2. Anti-Slavery patrols are designed to play on Orbital Spa and Cruise's ID allowance's of being able to hunt Slavers anywhere. Why should they being doing it I here people ask? Because Orbital Spa and Cruise are about people and slavers in roleplay would also target Orbital Spa and Cruise ships carrying people to turn them in to slave's for the Outcasts. If in roleplay they seem to do nothing about it why would people take a holiday with them. So for that reason Orbital Spa and Cruise in roleplay will be trying to reclaim individuals that were lost in actions with Outcasts and Slavers.
<strike>4. and 6. combined are to allow Weekly Cruise events to run smoothly. Yes due to the internal ecomony (5) there are not likely to be alot of these Liners, but it will make each Liner special. Why then put the as shared? Lets say we have two Liners in the group, One week only one can make it, the next the other is the only one who can make it. Thats two different Liners doing the same route which would not make sense in the next week where the first Liner manages to get to its new starting location. With them being shared it allows all members to use it and if the last member who used it isn't here the next week another can take his place and make sure that the continuety of the Cruise is kept. As well as this there will be a couple of dedicated named escorts for each such Liner as well. And the real bonus is that whe it is left at a station/planet when the next event comes it is already there ready to be used from the get go. Cruise Events are likely to be planned for about an hour (two hours Max) per Liner.</strike>
<strike>5. Internal Ecomony basically entails that no credits are used from a players own funds to make characters. All earned credits also go to the bank. However I will be setting up Mission's where upon a player can earn from the pool of funds we get from our activities. These Missions may vary from time to time, but will always be in the best roleplay interests of Orbital Spa and Cruise.</strike>
Admin has also closed it as that application was going to fail. I am just going to start a group from nuts and bolts as I have already explained in my post.
Please read fully before asking me something as the answer maybe there already. But thank you for your time.

The reason why you like Orbital Spa and Cruise as a NPC faction:
By applying you understand that you might not be able to get the ship you want that you are entitled to due to the status of Funds at the time you apply.
You may join both areas however will be dependant on Funds at the time and your rank
//At the end of last year a OSC Watering Hole was created, as a free-to-participate-thingie which gathered OSC characters in one place for leisure and OSC matters discussion, and a Communications Channel was also created for the purpose of publicOSC communications.
I was about to create a OSC char and send it there to ring the bell, should I instead support this official faction creation efforts please let me know. But for such a "relaxed rp" faction as OSC, I guess the watering hole will do just fine. If it becomes too succesful (wich I doubt), it can then try to become official or something.
I believe they was related to something else which did not get of the ground. Nor made any real impact on the community.
However you are more than welcome to join here. It would be great if you did. I am not at the moment planning on applying to become Official. I am only planning to get a working OSC faction and nothing else till then.
// I insist in using the lodge. I dont believe we need any power structure with things as they are. There is no official faction and that means that in-rp OSC captains are more or less being responsible for themselves and their crafts.
In that way we can adress OSC matters united but keeping power distribution more horizontal. What do you think mate?
I am not in it for power. I am just making a OSC faction that will work. If you wish to stay as an indie stay as an indie. I'm not forcing you to join am I? and please stop putting //before your text it is not needed in this thread if you post is feedback.
To put it simple I am making a OSC faction that will work and thats it. Stop trying to imply anything other than that as I feel you only think I am doing this to make a Official Faction. I am not untill the time is right. Be that in 4 years i do not care. All I care about is making a working faction structure that can last.
I will aslo say that, that thread was made in Novomber and has not been used since. Structure is needed to make things work. Without structure is anarchy. Also having a group dedicated to OSC makes it easier to sort out problems as each member is working together to achieve the same thing. Furthermore if say it was to use the Thread you keep mentioning when one player is wanting to put a bounty on someone who shot at there ship in rp, another OSC Player is likely to disagree to the procedure when there rp character is friends with the one to be bountied. That is not conformity that is needed. It is easier to group together working as one with direction and structure. Having structure makes it easier to know where you stand as well.
There has also been more roleplay from OSC players on the forums and ingame since December when I started running a OSC faction for the first time then the thread you keep talking about achieved in a month. Which would you support? Being in a small community of players who want the same thing who can help each other, thus achieving quality over quantity or a system where by you only repersent yourself and may at times find it hard to have your opinions heard. Would you also prefer a system where by a OSC player can make up events for other OSC players and encourage them to attend or have a system where by a OSC has a rare chance to roleplay with another OSC player.
To finish of yes I lead the above faction but I do have to answer to players with in the group and those I have choosen to be investors in OSC's roleplay.
