Should a recommended ship list exist?

[Akumabito]

To all posting here I'd like to point out this is a pointless discussion, the matter has been settled.

Akumabito, this is directed at you and solely you. You can choose to ignore it, but to do so will make you all that you claim others to be.

Del, I've never ignored a single valid point that I have read. I leave that for faction leaders. Often I'm dealing with a bunch of spam from you faction leaders, thinly veiled insults, sometimes direct insults, and somewhere in that garbage I might miss something.

If you want honest discussion clean your own house. Stop the factionspam and these threads will get a lot more civil.

This list is hard and fast, get a ship on the red section with no RP and expect a hoofing, get a ship on the yellow section with no RP, get a hoofing, get a ship on the green list without RP, go about your day just fine.

OK, what's a hoofing, what is the quantity of the RP and who decides?

And why is that better than a simple, clean yes or no list?

Rp here refers to the RP of ship acquisition not Character RP, as that must be present in all characters regardless of ship.

I'm not sure what you mean here. There is no requirement for character RP to play on the server. The rest is nebulous, and until you can quantify it how am I supposed to know that this isn't simply a way for factions to tilt PvP in their favor? Because that is what it looks like to me.

Add RP to any of those sections and you can expect to get away with that ship. Provided that RP is accessible. Done.

No, because the RP isn't good enough until the factions decide it is good enough, right? And safeguards are there that the factions are going to be fair? Quantify the amount of RP if you are going to make it a requirement, otherwise this stinks of an elitist powergrab, the embodiment of "we can walk all over the less organized or smaller groups of people who disagree with us on the server".

What does it add? It makes it easier for those that want qa diffeerent ship choice to know how much work is required to get it. Green: None, Yellow: Some, Red: Lots. Done.

You can fly (almost) any ship you want even if you need the ID that actually matches it already, right?

So no one is being denied a ship by a black and white list, right? They just have to actually fly the ID that matches the ship. Why is that a bad thing?

I'm not afraid to answer.

Yes you are. You are afraid the truth will be inconvenient for you, and you are running from it as fast as you can.

Sad to watch, really.
