Regarding the restriction on Liberty caps

[Jihadjoe]

A little notice.

n00bl3t's ship, the LNS-Nebraska, is now on the approved list. It was something of an oversight for me not to have put it there, as I have seen no stupid moments from it at all.

I know that he has been against the cap restirction on this, however I know that he doesn't behave like an idiot with the thing, blowing up LF's 'becuz he's red lulz'.

He may not agree with this measure we have taken, however he doesn't display the behaviour that we are trying to discourage, and thus is approved.


I also want to respond to this

All the same, simply saying this.

The LN, LSF, LPI factions TRIED to work with other ideas. Yes they may not have the best reputation and some of their members can be complete *******s but the leaders themselves do try, and actively are trying, to work with Independants and others.
It has gone on for months now and in the end, this was the only option that truely offered the best solution.

In reality, all it is doing is asking Independants to have a good RP backing. It may not work with the LN etc RP 100% but if it is good, the leaders of the LN etc are definately smart enough to accept it and leave them be.

Yes this is a way for the LN to regain control but not over Liberty or over independants as a whole but over those who are blatently OORP (Mainly through lack of any RP).
So please do give them some time. Try work with it and just give it a shot. If you don't like it in a few weeks, raise the issue again.

Infact we are -not- talking about RP here, the reason behind it is overkill. If people don't have any RP then they will be sanctioned. Simple.
What isn't sanctionable is ruining the gameplay for other people by 'pew pewing' light fighters with big ships which the LF couldn't possibly hope to beat.

That is the sole reason I have behind doing this. The side effect is that today we have seen much better RP in liberty. I watched it for a large part of the day, both on my LN char, and my xeno, plus a little time on an unlawful char no-one knows is me.

Fairplay is the reason behind it, and a hope that we can change the culture of liberty especialy from "get a kill at all costs even if it's massively unfair on the person getting shot" to "have your fun, but don't step on anyone elses gameplay".
