Also, have you considered looking at it from Rheinland Govt's point of view? They just had someone slap down 5 POBs in a system, didn't go through the process of registering these or ignored the process, and I guarantee these POBs weren't actually doing any reasonable economic activity considering you put down FIVE of them. It looks bad. It really just looks bad.
Throwing POBs left and right makes them genuinely meaningless in my eyes, RP wise.
Well, I did report the violations, yet the called player was still playing freely afterward. I’m not here to judge, as I was upset and received messages from all sides on discord.
Regarding the point you mentioned about considering Rheinland's government's perspective and the belief that those bases were just appearing out of nowhere—this is incorrect. Those bases had Freelancer IFF and were backed by extensive forum work (for me as a beginner: https://discoverygc.com/forums/showthrea...tid=191528). Each base had a specific purpose:
A Shipyard, intended to create RP around building ships on the station (which is now integrated into the game).
A Research Base for scientific advancements.
A Defense Base for protection.
A Central Communication Base for Freelancers to gather and coordinate.
All of that work and storytelling behind their existence was essentially erased by just two lines of text. Even responses to those lines were ignored. The reality was that people simply saw something to blow up and proceeded to AFK-shoot the bases 24/7. I logged in constantly, barely got any sleep, as they would attack in the middle of the night (which, as I understand, is no longer possible). And always sitting next to the defenses which were sometimes not even shooting (bugging as there were 12x Defenses build around them for protection).
Destruction with proper RP would have been fine, yet even when returning after being destroyed, people would claim they were "not PvP dead" and could continue regardless. The bases weren’t even close to anything significant (they were 60k below ground level and far from any objective) and served purely an RP purpose. The central base was Core 3, and the others were Core 2 looking forward to go further with more RP which was just in its early stage. Gathering the necessary materials took far longer than their destruction.
However, I’m not upset about the destruction itself, even though it took me over three months to build them. What truly frustrates me is that the RP was completely ignored. Everything had to be erased overnight, and the attack had to begin immediately (They were even attacked before the 24Hour restriction). I would have loved for the RP to continue, but even a major government ignored the opportunity because it would have taken time to engage in RP—think about that. The legal registration of the bases was denied for random, nonsensical reasons—not once, not twice, but three times. In the end, I said, "Screw it, I'll do the RP and build them anyway." Yet even then, the RP aspect was completely disregarded.
People remained stubbornly stuck in their own narrow viewpoints, refusing to include others in their godlike system where they serve as rulers. I believe that this is the real issue.
