I got an idea... I'm not saying it's a good one, but it's an idea nonetheless.


.87, wipe all the accounts, BUT, leave official factions with around around a billion or two on a bank character owned by the faction. Then, factions like police and military can afford to outfit some defensive ships, and also place bounties, etc, which will enable people to make money in a way besides trading.

Would help maintain some balance.


OR, you wipe all the credits off all the characters and POB's, but leave the ships alone. That way, people can go and sell some of their ships to an NPC ship dealer to recover some money. That way, the people who are rich now, will still be more wealthy then, and potentially allow for the balance mentioned by Cris to be kept. Not quite as socialist as a complete wipe across the board.

False i still have more then enough to have fun.. but nice try to QQ. If you had read the responses on that Freeport XXI topic with cannon, you should know i could easy boost my money ammount. Next time before you make any judgement please read it all first ok?

Money is easy earned, but well if you do a complete reset of the server it might also backfire. As there are players who play it more occasionally which will lose all their possessions. These will be less tempted to start playing again, but maybe the new version MIGHT challenge them to do or to do not. Also their own free time they have to spent at that moment are all part of that decision they will make if they will go on or not. Its not bad, nor good as people here think only as follow: Time/Creds.

This is a great way to sneakily kill a lot of POBs. Also theres a easy way round it - just buy a bunch of ships and then sell them off after the update.

Wrong, as POB's still could have a huge amount of devices stored within and commodities which could be easy resold at a high price nearby. So this idea is USELESS. It only gives PoB owners MORE advantage. A complete server clean. All pob everything gone. And you know why?

It would create maybe for ONCE good RP for stations to be build and be destroyed. Also it will generate yet again good RP and coorporation for the base owners and people who help along building it. Like malaclypse it was build with several other factions both official and unofficial. That made it so fun. Same with Freeport XXI it was aided when it was build by IC, some GMG and IMG traders.

EDIT: not only that, but it would also wipe out all the neutral id'ed ships. Which admins could finally decide to remove that id and just rephack the angel ships instead. Angels can just easy fly under a recruit id. As within conn for example they could have op combinations of there weapons. As neutral id is 100% to everything. (and yes you see em shooting there from time to time. Or have admin adjusted ships with more things you don't even see on the scanners. to secretly boost their power.)

And so it proves The forums are useless it seems. I lost a lot yes, but still i can smile. Like i said i still own more then enough. But The idea to delete everything might actually solve something on disco. Rather to continue with the current mess. But if you would prefer That its ok. But rather saw a complete deletion. And maybe some grace period of The admins for everyone to get an Barge for example. Like it was done in The past.

It motivates you to try and get That thing in The amount of time it would be available. Some kind of an activity reward. Rather buying it from peeps for at least 10 bill. After wich for example my gf case it was a mod who sold an outcast Barge which had with The proof another admin gave been rephacked a littlebit before it was sold. So in short it would fix everything if we all would start from 0

Why do you still care about the progress of discovery, oh wait you don't but you love spending time on it still. Last I heard you were going to leave...

I'd like a server wipe (Disco has been so incredible stale for such a long time now - and we'd have the chance to delete some systems too, yay) along with Zelot's(?) recent suggestion regarding changing the credits system to allow for super-expensive things. Make caps and all unique ships open, and set a super-high price on them, reflective of supposed roleplay rarity as well as balance and turn up the severity of sanctions a notch so people get their ships deleted if they break server rules in them - that will help most players behave in their über expensive caps, and we'd also see less of them.

Also the Barge-thing is stupid, it's ridiculous that people who paid 500 million credits last time they were up for grabs can harvest a 9,500,000,000 credits profit for doing absolutely nothing. Delete 'em all or make them purchasable at an exorbitant price, rather than promote negative/passive gameplay.
