After following this type of discussion for about 2 weeks now, I've come to the conclusion that the no cruise rule
should be soundly deep-sixed. As in dropped straight into the Marianas Trench. My reasons...
1) Induces ill-will all around and instigates pointless bickering and rules-lawyering about shield-running. An incredible waste of time and energy that ultimately dilutes the fun of rp-pvp.
2) Unrealistic hamstringing of oneself (If you're the one chasing)
3) Smells like a rule created by those who firmly believe and hold to the ancient creed, that you can only rp in a fighter.
That said, I stick by this rule, because it is still a rule. I pilot a gs and will continue to do so, even with this rule in place. It won't nudge me into the cockpit of a fighter anytime soon.
