So what's up with bases and Roleplay?

[AshHill07]

The bases themselfs open up a massive amount of potential for Roleplay. Its then down to the players to use it.

So far the only base sieges I've been on where I haven't seen people act OORP'ly or break server rules are the ones where a defencive force never showed up. I myself have always respected the rules regardless of whether I'm attacking or defending. I have died in sieges / defences before and I've always logged out after, and on one occasion even gone and done something else for the 4 hours before coming back.

I guess the thing is Bases take a lot of investment, usually more from the defending side than the attacking side but its still a large time investment. Because of the amount of time people have to invest into it they're willing to break a few rules if it means they can make thier investment worth while. I've been chased off a base I was attacking in the past, theres very little in this game thats more frustrateing than dedicateing 8 hours to a siege, starting to do damage, and then having to flee. But it seems some people lack the self control to not break the rules out of frustration.
