As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Search Destroy Agency, we DO run escorts whenever feasible. You'll note in our message board that several recruits have had ships blown out from under them while doing escort missions.
No thank you. Several of us started an unofficial faction whose rules include:
Quote:3. Traders will fly alone only if they are in a ship with countermeasures and mkVIII armor.
My Trader ID'd bomber is by far my most fun toon and sees the most RP. You would be supprised at how many pirates never read a trader ID.
But not to derail the thread, my last statement stands and I am glad it will be like that. Unfortunately here is the dilema:
Discovery is by far the most populated server. Most of the people in space either...
a. dont roleplay at all
b. respect only the letter of the law because it allows for minimum Rp with maximum rules whoring, pvp whoring, and cap whoring.
When these changes go through the server population suffer. Some people will say "we don't want em" (as i already have), but basically anyone involved in pirating or trading legal goods, or enforcing them will have less of a choice for interaction (which is the foundation of roleplay).
