[SIEGE/DEFENSE EVENT]Kansas Prelude19:00-21:00 UTC Navy/Lawful vs Auxo/Unlawful

[Kauket]

None of what your group is doing is consented by anybody else so why don't you sit back and be quiet.

No one is asking you @Kauket about if you like it or not, still your "opinion" is noticed, but as sometimes happen, no one wanna follow that way to view things about it ...

Unfortunately for all the users out there that own a POB that roleplay is mandatory.

This event however, is not mandatory, and everyone sees it as clear as day that it's Lemon wanting to draw attention to himself to paint himself as a 'motivator'. But then again, who doesn't like a big mess to fight in? There is a time and place for it to set up these things. Had it been if LN did not have ZOI, I'd guarantee this would have been written to whoever else had access to big cap lines, like Outcasts, Gaians, or Rogues or some such. Who cares. I've had fun with fighting because it's given a lot of insight of what compositions could work, especially when you have the limitation of no caps, you get to see how the game works.

I'd say making it make sense is a pretty big matter - it does not make sense that he is painting the Technocracy's point of view to be ridiculous because the faction is not about conquesting for new land - only to prevent undesirable catastrophes from exotic alien materials.



Actually it's pretty funny to think majority of this second hand frothing is stemming from refusal to commit to the creativity of roleplaying on the server. Even more funnier when the answer was given for an optimal neutral outcome. Yes, conflict is natural, you cannot please every faction at the same time. Especially you cannot comply to what they see as an issue.

Sieges are unfun in general - and usually for both sides from my own experience. But that's hardly surprising as it was always like this.

People who want to have fun and have clear hostiles to shoot will always use this opportunity - which is fine as it isn't against the rules - but people who don't like it don't have to attend. It's not mandatory.

If anyone is blaming the guy that he's doing everything he can to save his base - well, that's the point of siege mechanics to begin with, and most people would do the same in his place as he clearly didn't have a chance to defend it himself.

Oh, I doubt anyone was surprised that LN indies are defending it. Guaranteed protection is supposed to happen if you put your POB in house space anyway, and people will want to go to pews. And there's always a risk of where you place your POB, and even more so with what you say and do to publicly announce to the sector in ungoverned space. Shit happens.

There was an option to genuinely avoid it all - since I presented OORPly a means to give a proper narrative reasoning to ignore the fact that there's a base dealing with alien stuff right next to a spot thats supposed to be guarded - and I explicitly stated - clear as day - that I know how much of a pain it is to build those modules which is why I wanted a peaceful solution. A solution where he loses nothing but unironically gains things (he would have gained a defender, gained possible mutual mining). But he harrassed one of my members in PM, and then started assuming that presenting a character means you're getting griefed and started getting careless with the RP. That is why there are some distastes.

Actually it's pretty identical behaviour to powertraders assuming you're being griefed if a pirate is asking for some credits. Oh well, it happens, unfortunately, too much in Disco. Personally I'm just in this for the pews and analysing group gameplay since it is hard to get huge group fights.
