Presumably, if a faction as large and as powerful as the Outcasts have one of a ship type (which they do), and they are able to build and support a fleet of warships, then they are able to reverse engineer it or at least its hull structure -- the latter is all I had asked for (the Raiders have many specimens to kitbash together on paper and then send off to Aquila Defense Systems to make it happen). And I'm actually quite insulted by the insinuation that I'm exhibiting tendencies alike BULLDOGNK.
so you are unaware of how you are presenting your decision, coming so closely on the heels of the unfortunate attempt by the zoners to control access to the corvo? It matters not what one's own intent is, but what society's interpretation of their intent is. we are measured in the eyes of others, not by our own yardsticks.

This change is not a "you are wrong, we are right, render unto Caesar" but rather a "listen, this whole issue is because of a mistake made several years ago and nothing has come up to keep things going as they are, so we're reverting some questionable decisions."
so why the urgency of the change? jinx wants the model back? or you want the ship?

this i could care less about. i don't fly caps, and have never been interested in not having enemies, so a ship that i've never owned being turned into a cap for reasons of gameplay didn't affect me. So, you say that this wasn't a good decision, and was soo terrible it needs retconning? I wonder what a certain employee at Glumobile thinks about this, after all, he is now a professional gamedesigner.
but it seems that you have decided that as today is friday, the zoners are losing their caps. There are none so blind as those who will not see, and none so deaf as those who will not hear. I'm glad that you have engaged me in this dialogue. I have tried to point out the errors in your extrapolation of the consequences of your actions, and you have erroneously interpreted these as a personal vendetta, and found insult where none was intended. I hope that in the future you will be able to reflect on this and say 'darn, i wish I'd put out a thread that outlined the problem, invited suggestions, and then picked the suggestion that was most applicable to the future direction of the mod, just like they do on the radio when they want to call in for a song request - they already have the play-list they want to play - and that way garrett would not have been drowning'
