Judicial Order

[Echo 7-7]

We are back to the 'You can please some of the people some of the time but not all the people all the time!'

We get condemned because Pirates can attack all around Manhattan and we don't do anything. Well, our ID (being Freelancer) doesn't allow us to do anything. We are told to get on the Bounty Boards.

Now we have got on a Bounty Board and we are condemned because we are acting like any other Mercenary Group.

We are told to listen to the community, so the question is: who in the community do we listen too? This question hasn't been answered yet by anyone. Please people give us a break. We are DAMNED if we do and we are DAMNED if we don't!

I have said in previous posts on this thread that this isn't the way we wanted to go!

The explanation of the O-99 incident (which some complain is ooRP) has been explained in previous posts.

Yesterday there was a 2 hour slot, on SKYPE, which was organised for people to talk to Yohance about the Judges. Do you know how many people out of the community, who had a chance to talk to us, turned up:

EXACTLY 0

We are trying! But it seems nobody is trying to meet us even slightly part of the way!

Rather than offering an obscure time which doesn't suit anyone, you could instead take all the time you need to reply to each of the posts here in turn - and actually address the content within them, instead of complaining about the tone in which it is said.

Also, perhaps the "catch-22" situation described above can be mitigated by aligning your roleplay with the available IDs. Freelancers are people who are self-employed, or offer their services to the highest bidder; so a group of Freelancers are either mercenaries or traders-for-hire. Is that what the Judges are? No, not from your description. If you want to act in the pursuit of justice but not be tied down to any House, then the Bounty Hunters Guild (not the Core) should be your next port of call. Still too much of a mercenary feel? Then you'll have to pick up a House Lawful ID. On an tangential note, the BHG Core is dedicated to wiping out the Order and figuring out Nomad technology (though this does have a sinister undertone), so if you feel like shipping out to the Omicrons, there's your ticket. Alternatively, if you're feeling that martyrdom is more to your liking, change sides and sign up with the Order and save humanity from itself (by keeping Nomad tech out of circulation). If everything I have suggested is too constraining, then that should be ringing some warning bells: your faction's roleplay may not fit within the structure of the ID system.
