Nomads?

[Treewyrm]

AoM, I'll just put it simple: I played Nomads for more than four months straight while being hostile to their NPCs. While originally the story started off with HF it eventually went its own path. The only two bases I was able to dock at were Planet Gammu and Planet Primus. So, don't tell me it's impossible. Anyone can given time to think and turn on imagination.

Unfair? Unfair would be to have random people ruining this intricate work. It's not longer just my vision and my time and effort put into, it is also input and effort of other members of the faction. It would be also unfair to them to see random nomad tagged/IDed players violating rules left right and center, going massive pvp whorage without any control whatsoever, ruining entire concept and collapsing it down. Sorry, I will not allow that to happen. It is the reason why I keep it so tight. It's my responsibility and there is no elitism here, to put it simple: it's a job. Not an easy one mind you. If anybody thinks otherwise - fine. Seriously, I'm not bothered about what people might think in such key, it's their interpretation, but it's not my job here to change minds.


A little correction to Unseelie's post: I did accept a member based on his roleplay in-game a while ago (actually I think it's five or six players by now overall who initially had in-game nomad fighter characters), though the person still had to make the story and was interviewed thoroughly about almost everything, starting from the generic questions about the Discovery, then to the Nomads, the way person sees them and understands the concept, and eventually up to the personal matters. Regardless of that, the patience is required. If the person has no patience then playing Nomads is out of question, it requires certain qualities, including that one.

And yes, we have both hybrid characters and pure nomads in the faction, sometimes the different isn't seen but sometimes it shows up. We take care of the smaller ones (NPCs) acting as guardians and protecting them.
