The "Seriousness" level of RP these days

[blubba]

......everyone is too focused on tech and ships to realise what makes it good is how that person handles the "why" of that character.....

The bar has been set too low. Now the effort of maintaining factions or interesting characters has been made redundent, after all why be held to the high standards of a faction or solid RP if you can get everything right off the bat?

That's about the strength of it.
