Why bother logging Liberty if you're going to win InRP anyways? What's the point? You win already. That's the sad part of the Liberty-Rheinland War. Rheinland won a majority of engagements, and should have taken Planet Houston Orbit and drive Mississippi to the New York Gate. Instead Rheinland lost.
Liberty never loses. Personally, it's about time the Godhouse is taken down. No house is untouchable. But sadly, every time Gallia had a chance, it's shot down by Story Devs.
One reason GRN never was fun to lead. InRP I had the largest fleet in history, inRP I commanded thousands of capitals. But every time I was devastated by Bretonian/CR/etc. Being the Big Bad, with already bad stigma attached...it's no fun. Omi's done great things with the faction, but it's disheartening to hear that Story Devs shoot down some creative ways at taking over.
It might not be player driven...but every house has lost a war. Liberty needs to lose by now, to be blunt.
Every coin has two sides. Now there is nothing in stake during battles except the win in that one battle. Yet, some people behave like total [add swear word] and are willing to totally ruin fun of the other side.
Now imagine how would people behave if they would know there is something in stake. It would pull out the worst of the community. How often would people be willing to make fair fights? How often they would be willing to do -anything- to win? How often people will yell at each other because they lost battle due to some mistake?
By the way, we all know that Rheinland won majority of battles simply because Liberty is starting house, so majority of their players are not skilled enough, while Rheinland had group of dedicated skilled and coordinated players. It now happens again during GRN-LN fights, Liberty is simply paying toll for being starting house, simple as that. And I don´t think that Disco lore should be driven just by the factor of which side/faction has more and better pvpers.
