Are we killing Discovery?

[Praetyre]

I'm going to quote what I said here, because it expresses my opinion on the matter concisely;

I dislike the use of the term "rights" here. Rights are not concepts relevant to private property like Discovery, only contracts.

I will likely be doing something on this in future.. suffice to say, this poll attempts to put things in a box;

Criminals; No trouble, criminals naturally fracture into gangs. I think factions should have some control over capital ships, since they'd be rare and only accessible to large gangs.

Corporations; Ditto, corporations have subsidies, subsets, divisions, incorporations, takeovers.. and, I'd be looser about transports, given most of them are probably average guys working for the company.

Paramilitaries; More ambigious. I can see "Real IRA" situations cropping up, but I think independents should be restricted to fighters or bombers, generally, unless a good roleplay comes up.

Police; It depends;

BPA; No. The name says it all, and I've got confirmation on what it means from Pierre himself.

KSP; I don't know enough about them to comment. Kusari seems likely to have a unified system, so if they are the same as the BPA, also no.

LPI; They REALLY need to change their name, given they are a single squadron according to their own RP. As long as they don't use capital ships, I'm fine with it.

RFP; See KSP. If they are like the BPA, then no.

Military;

QCRF; An eccentric umbrella group seperate from the Admiralty. No restrictions, in my opinion.

KNF; Like the LPI, they need to change their name. Similar to QCRF in lack of restrictions.

SA; They are half of the Navy. They have zero authority over the Northern Liberty Navy. So, go wild (though, sensibly)!

RM; No. Unilaterally named and described military faction? Only exception for me would be RPing as BDM or Rheinheer.

LSF; No. Same reasons as Rheinwehr, but without exceptions. I even got confirmation from David (Kingvaillant) that the LSF is not split like the Navy or Army.

Criminal Militaries; See criminals.
