One of those /1 /2 critique threads.

You know what my main comment on this thread is? Comes from my buddy Dieter. It is in response to nom's repeated assertions that people are prioritizing PVP over RP.



You know why this rule first came into being? I know, I was there. It was because Kane was pissed that someone undocked from Yanagi and popped him(Yes Karlotta, have fun with that little gem). Before that, it was within the rules to fire on someone without saying anything beforehand. This rule wasn't about rp when it started. It said you had to make an engagement notice. The rule was never about improving RP, it was about making the game fairer. We changed the rule to 2 lines of rp, we specifically asked for a number of lines and not some kind of quality because it is impossible to judge the quality or rp because everyone has their own style and every character should be played differently. It's no one's place to judge the quality of another players rp. We can only look at if they follow the rules or not.
