I'ma say this straigh tout. OPG are capwhores. It's true.
As for our numbers... We have.. 1 Legate, 1 Osiris, 1 shared Praefect, 2 personal Praefects. and probably almost a total of 20 gunboats.
Apart from the gunboats, They never leave Omicron Gamma though, which is perfectly fine I think.
And I can't remember off the top of my head the last time OPG used a gunboat in a fight.
We have lots of caps, most of us are capwhores, but we restrict ourselves, the heavier ships are used for defence, and the gunboats are used for piracy, and every now and then in combat.
To be honest I think our battleships see more combat then all our gunboats combined, due to the numerous large ship invasions of Gamma.
So it's a bit unfair to say we whore em.
@Globalo and McNeo
meh I don't agree, Dab just doesn't know what exactly we're thinking, what he said wasn't all that flamatory anyway.
@Dab
I don't agree.. At the moment, the register is more lax than the Outcasts. All you have to do, even battleships and dreadnoughts, is to register it. No RP story required for battleships yet.
Our requirements are:
Quote:The behavior of a capital ship Captain must be befitting of the Captain of such a vessel. It is a privilege
This was an in RP way of saying, strict RP required.
Quote:The Captain must be registered at a capital ship registry, with contact details, so that if something happens they may be quickly contacted. This is to allow us to contact you quickly if an unfortunate event should occur.
If we hear about them doing stupid crap like going to New York, we can PM them.
Quote:Corsair capital ships can leave Corsair owned systems if it is escorted by no less than 3 Corsair vessels of bomber class or lower, or called into the battlefield by the organized Corsair force.
Cruiser should not leave Corsair space, that is Cambridge and further, the higher Omega systems, and Sigmas, without at least 3 fighter escorts.
Is it really that strict? It's just spelt out more than the Outcast ones, so we don't have to explain to every indie individually, it's all there. As long as you fly properly, you're left alone.
Ok... Akumabito, I have ceased to care about your arguement here. You refuse to see that it is within RP for a military to know what ships there are in their fleet.
You refuse to see there is a problem with oorp capships.
Both of these are fairly self evident.
I have now stopped argueing with you. You don't listen and you don't care if you piss anyone off pon the way to getting what you want... Hell, if we were all like you akuma then no one would have to check anything out with anyone before they did it.
You could waltz into anywhere and just start doing your own thing without a care for what other people do... Wuldn't that be easy eh kids... lets all take Akuma's way.
Ok... so maybe I am a bit angry at Akumabito's attitude towards other people.

Really? I stopped caring about your opinion when I read your first post on this subject, so it took you long enough.
Any ship I have with a faction ID works for that faction and acts appropriately, it is, however, not under control of any faction leader of a faction I am not a member of, period.
I am not a member of Eppys faction and frankly I think Eppy is way way to immature to be a faction leader, so I refuse to be brow beat into joining his faction by force or caveat because he can get a few guys to pvp whore me. I'm better than that.

I think you've been hitting the wrong button. You keep hitting multiplayer when you mean to hit new game.
Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level, and beat you with experience.
this topic is overdone, useless, flames.
grow up, the lot of ya.
Factions are allowed to do whatever they feel is in role play, as long as it is not a violation of server rules. If you have a problem with the role play of a faction, avoid them, cos they sure as hell outnumber you. the game fun of all those members is more important then the game fun of one disgruntled complainer.
IT IS NOT AGAINST THE RULES.
IF IT PISSES YOU OFF, AVOID IT, AND PLEASE FOR OUR SAKE SHUT UP ALREADY!

The only way to settle the capship issue once and for all is to put a maximum limit on the number of posts any one IP address can make to this forum within a 24 hour interval.
Five would suffice.
Then the dozen of you who think arguing about the game is more fun than playing the game, and who think that your daily post count is a measure of your impressiveness rather than a mark of your vapidness would be prevented from tormenting the rest of us with the incessant egocentric pronouncements of "Flames! Flames! Flames!", "Admins, I DEMAND you lock this thread!", "How dare the rest of you comment on my roleplaying while not adhering to the high standards of MY roleplaying!", et cetera.
If you don't have whatever it takes to settle your conflicts on the server, then don't think for a second that anyone has the ability to muscle their way to power there by coming here. If you think its possible, then you have no understanding whatsoever of the true nature of power. If you think anyone has managed to do that, you have completely deluded yourself.
If the best entertainment Disco gives you is to incessantly complain about any aspect of it or its players, then its time to find a new hobby, and quit disrupting everyone elses.

Whoops! :$
Akuma I want to clarify what dusty said here for you. I have his permission to post this. So look closely at it.
You seem to have missed dusty's point... He is very adept at covering serious points with a joke.
I believe (and please correct me if I'm wrong) that he was saying the multiplayer is about... (now heres the real bombshell) playing with others! That means compromise with other players. This seems to be something you are very very adept at avoiding both in word and deed.
