' Wrote:frankly there's way too much rules on this server
just keep it simple. all bounties need to be auto-scripted :-
pirates: allowed to kill police and traders. gets bounties for these.
police: allowed to kill pirates & police. gets bounties for these.
traders: allowed to kill pirates. gets bounties for these.
AND THATS IT.
Also -- no rule against relogging into system after death. You can come back and fight again if you want. If they spawn camp, someone else will come help.
FINALLY -- No need for individual factions IDs. All factions are either pirate, police or trader. AND THATS IT.
Simple. You can rp if you like but essentially the above is all there is to ruuning an mmorpg game of that type.
The above suggestions are insane, confusing, and would effectively turn Discovery into a PvP server. 99.9% of the players here would disagree as I am now. No offense, but those are horrible suggestions.
To jpo, however. The rule lawyers, capwhores, ooC, and PvP whores are everywhere. Just make sure you know the rules better than them and ignore em. There's a command for that y'know. If you don't feel like RPing forum side. Don't. All that matters is that you have fun, some people enjoy RP serverside more, you might be more inclined to that. So roll with that and see how it is.
