Privateer ID

[bluntpencil2001]

Another newbie post, apologies in advance for naivety.

IDs are great, but they are restrictive and therefore limiting to RP. They say who are the good guys and who are the bad. When the RP gets more mature, good and bad are harder to define so the IDs stop being useful and start being an impedement to RP.

They are there to stop RP excesses however as it stands the proposed RP (although in character, logical and interesting) is against server rules.

Something must give, either the RP must change or the rules must be broken. How can admin slap our newbie wrists for going against the card and then allow a whole faction to go against some of the basic premises of the IDs being suggested.

Personally I think the RP should take precedence over the rules but it sure leads to some big questions for people to argue about.

Best newbie post ever.

You're right. It's a lose/lose right now for us. Hopefully we think of something.
