Dublin Miners Pub Poll

[Laz]

Wow... I am an original thinker, who with the inspiration that God has given me used /pm for RP. I have always used the ingame /pm in that way. And who says it cannot be used for RP? We use forums all the time for RP and that isn't in the game now is it? Using the console command as a Sirius Wide Web isn't ooRP if it is used for RP. I think you don't realise how RP useful it can be! Lighten up. Maybe you have learnt a new tool to use.

Yet again, you misunderstand my point here. I'm saying that by using this method you are removing, at least in my eyes, a key part of the game that allows others to witness and participate in the actions that a PoB would generate.

The steps you are doing seems to cut these out like with the solo mining and PM docking rights. The forums are an ideal medium for this as it allows others to actually see what you post and therefore it contributes to the overall experience within the Discovery Gaming Community. I remember having a similar discussion a really long time ago with @Foxglove (I think) about skype RP and when people do large amounts of faction RP in skype chats that never reaches the forums. It's the same principle really.

To talk about that last point, I've seen..err.. attempts at similar things in the past, but nothing as 'obvious' which is why I brought it up (or rather continued the point after @Misfit first mentioned it). The old attempts were just as dysfunctional.

Why am I being crucified for being creative

You're not, this is just my opinion that I'm giving if it comes across that way that's the way I talk. That being said, while I don't agree with what you're doing in the way it plays out and affects the game, I do commend your attempts to create something unique, even if it does take its inspiration or roots from elsewhere.

Edit:

What do you think

You did ask for feedback after all.
