Do you think we have time to deal with every single indie?
Well, do you?
It takes a good half an hour or more to rep an indie, set one up, do all the things that need doing, point in the right direction, lecture about the rules they likely havent read, give tips on RP and PvP.
Do you really think that we have the time to deal with every single case? Consider the amount of Corsair characters out there is probably in the triple figures.
It was ok when there were only a few Corsairs back when TBH started. It was relatively easy and relaxing to help a new guy find their feet. However, when you get into the numbers that the Corsairs deal with, there are both bad and good things. One of the bad ones you pointed out. Among the good ones is the ability to call reinforcements at a moments notice, though it would certainly be overkill if we did so.
