Back in the days you could have a conversation with a pirate on how dangerous cardamine is for his body or why liberty ale is better than rheinbier...
But nowadays everyone is so eager to get into a fight. Seems like the only People that have remained active are the ones that play Freelancer for the combat.
People are investing so much time in writing biographys and what-not for characters or factions. Why can't some of this RP still happen inside the Game? Although I really enjoy reading here on the GC I miss the times on the server where people brought their Characters to life and not only played an NPC who attacks red players and ignores the other ones.
~250 registered users online on the Forums, reading and writing and debating about the future of Discovery
yet only 70..... or lets say only 5 of those, try to make good RP ingame and shape it there.
Quality RP is planned and needs a controlled environment and knowing your partner who you RP with. Discovery's ingame, as opposed to the forum, does not provide that.
You are right. But is a little chat between players about general RP stuff like commodities (e.g. cigars, sunbucks coffee, etc) or their characters dislike or like of something too much to ask for?
You dont really need a dedicated RPer who could lead a faction to so something like this.
For me back in the days, this was just good behavior and was expected.
