The only worthy contribution to be made is to just say the fact that these people (characters?) are not fun to interact with on any level. When you as an individual that want to have fun by opening up Discovery Freelancer and logging in the -- already very underplayed and under-represented -- lawful factions of the world and have to only come across this tier of... I don't know, anger, or whatever it is one would classify this type of behavior, you are only led down a path where you either quit (I've done this already once literally 3-4 weeks ago because I could not stand the roleplay environment anymore) or turn to simply taking affairs into your own hands by finding a way to, to be as polite as possible, redirect these players elsewhere on the server.
I am truly sorry for the comments made earlier, I know that the stuff I said wasn't Epic nor Good, but the unfortunate reality that we have to contend with is that this comm is very much representative of the existence of a small cult in the playerbase that does nothing productive for the server other than creating stories and roleplay that is highly questionable ooRP and even more so inRP; as outlined by the users above, how and why are there suddenly 20 dozen Freelancers and Zoners angry about a short-lived change in government? Why is there so much involvement from groups that have absolutely 0 to do with the Erie story? etcetera. I am fully aware that not every roleplay thread is for every other average Joe to digest, but as staff seems keen to do nothing other than spam warning levels instead of releasing either a statement on the whole topic or close down the thread due to its obviously very controversial nature, then I will again bring up the same things I said when I used to be a developer to Haste (apparently they fell on deaf ears): the less admins involve themselves in moderating this community, the more there will be a plethora of splinter groups formed to "moderate" the players on their own.
As for what I intend, I don't have much to say. I woke up some days ago after I retook 1ic of BAF, threw out the bounties, and called it a day. There's not much that's bannable or offensive in playing your role as a leading (lawful, military) faction. Now whether or not the sums are justified, I couldn't tell you -- that's a topic on its own because of how bloated the economy of Discovery is.
