NEMP suspension

[Lythrilux]

It was a cool idea. But flawed and very dependent on the other side being bothered as there are no real motivators. For example Core NEMP'd Dabadoru a year ago or so and Order| 1ic threw a hissy fit discouraging Order players from taking part and refusing to acknowledge it as canon (when by default, NEMPs don't even have any real RP consequences and are just a bit of fun). This was also underneath a backlog of other NEMP requests, so it took a while for it to appear. I'm assuming that from an Admin/GM perspective these things are a bit of a hassle to setup. To encourage people to take part anyway I tried asking the Staff at the time to make the supply part of the event profitable. But they recently adopted a policy (as showcased in several events) that NEMP events would not have above-average profit for the repair commodities, which is just not good for encouraging activity, especially when it actually disables a base in the process.

Idk. It was a cool idea, maybe really it should have just been sold at bases in conn as a moneysink for people to create events with. If it goes I don't think I'll particularly miss it, at least with its previous implementation.
