The Metropolis is ONE battleship -- the ONLY Vagrant Raiders battleship -- with literally three and a half years of RP behind it. It's the symbolic home of the faction. Without it existing in-RP, the faction is nothing. There's no symbol holding it together.
Let's see your three year roleplay for a single battleship that should exist in-game to mechanically supplement the in-RP and forum presence.
I'm waiting.
Still why would a pirate faction need a battleship? Like you stated priorly it would be the same as why need a zoner a cap? As you seem to forget that if a zoner gets attacked he/she may only shoot in self defense. Its the ONLY faction who cannot engage themselves and its only limited for the time you are engaged with.
What if.. I would say corsairs would lay a hand on o-74 and say you may not do this nor do that otherwise we shoot you. If ingame they would just blast you, you may not come back the next day and attack yourself. Something which phoenix here did not with the o-74 mess and neither did the ZA from what i have heard. But i guess you would say solve it inRP. But how can you solve it when someone is there with a cruiser for instance and you are on a snub? (your point of view) Basically the ships are there more due to pvp balance rather then something else. But if you disagree i would say stop telling stories about an Arbiter which is then basically also not needed. and inRP a small group like the VR is never able to fund it as the xeno's would be lorewise bigger then the VR, yet they don't have a bs ship.
also a 3 year old RP doesnt mean its an active one. I can make a post come back years after that and say look its x years old. While my contribution towards the community would be like 0.
