Techmix-nerf and factions which are unique in RELYING on techmixing

[Blighter]

Those of you who are getting chills down your spine, should ask yourselves; "Why am I concerned about this? What affect does it have on me that makes me feel this way?"

And, for the record, this is another case of, what the community creates, it destroys. Think about why such a system is being set up by the dev team.

Because we've factions to run, in the HF's case a faction which is potentially going to be affected by this in a negative way, gameplay-wise, motivation-wise, balance-wise, while this is completely disregarding the faction's history, the faction's RP, the faction's gameplay as such, disregarding any sense things may make in our respective RPs, disregarding anything we may or may not say, because we wish for the things we worked for, the things we managed to preserve fully-functional throughout the years to keep functioning, so that we can keep doing what we keep doing without some arbitrary drawbacks imposed on us, without having to go through another .85 period where we've to fight for what we've already fought for time and time again, without having to make threads like those, without having to watch as some new system completely doesn't take into account all the stuff permitted in SRPs or here:

While this new system appears to not be taking that into account, which as such makes it also not take into account all the hours of effort or anything else which ANYONE who has something there invested into acquiring it. Some of the stuff there is ANCIENT and people have grown fond of their stuff, be it the Ven'Gyr, Havana, Spiridus, whatever it may be, and this new system is basically saying: Oh right, keep your toys.

So I'm personally like: Okay. But the system is like: I have to be honest with you, I broke your toys. A little. Or a little more elsewhere. - Very nice, very kind, I'm sure it helps especially the HF which 75% of the time has to go up against overwhelming odds and has to out-perform the entirety of Liberty's law that is present at the time of a raid, utilizing stuff we figured out how to use and fought for and used and use as good as we can, stuff we cannot replace 'less we're given a completely whole shipline featuring an additional Light Cruiser with a forward gun, a Medium 12-gun Destroyer, a Battlecruiser, and an additional Heavy Battleship as suitable replacements which can fill the same roles of our existing crap without any nerf. Very nice, very kind, make us and everyone else who'd have similar issues work again even more and get more ships into the mod by miracle. But that's not going to happen, or is it?

Of course such a system is being set up for a reason, and it may be a good reason, it may be a good-looking system, but I don't see it taking into account the HF's junk, the SCRA's Osirises, stuff like LWB, Bundies, etcetera. I only see nerf nerf nerf unless this or that, conditions that cannot be fulfilled (matching IFF on generic ID = no nerf) by a faction as a faction doesn't use a generic ID, a faction uses a faction ID, and where applicable a faction IFF.

Now you can say it ain't final, of course it isn't, but I'm here because of what I heard, what I got told, and I see a major amount of broken stuff that shouldn't be broken being around in the future. Okay, well, like I said earlier as the average Discovery player, I can wait and see, but as HC of the HF, I can't, and I have to do my best to ensure that said faction will have a minimum of issues as a result of the .86 transition, unlike what happened with the .85 one, issues which led to Zeus-knows how much frustration for people involved in fixing things so they could work as they were, for what reason?

Because a new system had been implemented.

A new system is about to be implemented again, and so far we've seen little to suggest that this time, it will be different than when .85 came around in regards to us, by the look of things, having to do essentially the same work like when .85 came, and we'll have to talk against walls again possibly to fix our stuff or get it fixed.

Why? What have we done wrong? What has the SCRA done wrong? What has the HF done wrong? What have the VR done wrong? I asked in my first post if our stuff really has to be broken. So does it have to be? Can like the Administration here answer this with a "yes" or "no"?
