Yes, then what do we do if someone tries to say something OOC when they AREN'T hanging around in New York, and maybe in the middle of an engagement or something?
While being quite funny, your sig was the biggest one i've ever seen so far. No more than 700x250 please. ~utrack http://pastebin.com/SYQXBufs
' Wrote:I once thought of a draconian but useful solution. Write a small line of coding that autoinitiates ".kill" on anyone who enters "OOC" or "//" into system chat. It'll teach people not to do it while not taking up admin time sanctioning or killing people.
Everyone has to OOC/ // chat sometimes...
[8:32:45 PM] Dusty Lens: Oh no, let me get that. Hello? Oh it's my grandma. She says to be roleplay.

Alright, how about leaving the system for good? I know there are a bunch of characters that HAVE to be there, but there are people that can live without it. New York got so uninteresting for me that all my characters but two [M] ships that keep stationed there are out.
My trader circle around Liberty without entering it. My personal bank character is now stationed in Rheinland (he is a Rheinlander anyway, just decided it was time to go back home).
I only log with my New York stationed Mandalorian ships when there are defined targets on or when the police/military there is actually outnumbered or in need of help.
As someone pointed out. I avoid the system like the plague. Maybe the people pointing out that NY should be less populated should remove themselves from the system, they're part of the problem. Even if they aren't ooRPing/PvPing there, they're adding to the population, making the system more attractive to the people looking for the crowds.
- Take out the banks (move them to Conn if you can't really have them farther away);
- Don't linger when creating a new character;
- Ban the armories from Manhattan;
- Liberty faction PCs, PLEASE, don't add up to the OOC chat. I've said this once and will point out again. A lot of faction PCs are doing the exact same thing everyone is criticizing. They reply to OOC in system chat with OOC in system chat. These people should know better. It doesn't matter who started, from those looking, it's just the same.
Get away from Liberty already. Bretonia and Kusari are blooming with stuff to do.
along those lines, we could simply make every system's chat logs print to somewhere on the forums every server reset, and decide what oorp is and is not necessary.

Thats a LOT of stuff to look through, and some stuff may be private to some people.........If say two people are alone, and no one else is around to hear it...They may talk out of character. Since no one else is around, they aren't exactly disrupting the RP flow.
EDIT: Woops, forgot to put Funselie's words in a quote.

Short of being in the middle of a fight when you just have to address to the other party pointing out a gameplay issue, I don't think there's anything really so urgent that you have to breach protocol and // / OOC in system channels.
EDIT: And I mean just the "// Wait." or "// Please stop." The rest can go back to PMs.
