Note on The Order policies

[Tenacity]

Ok, Unseelie, Tenacity and everyone who's strongly against this new suggestion:

Wait, against? What exactly am I against here?

The only point i'm arguing here is that I dont think everyone and their mothers should have access to certain ships if those ships, in-RP, are supposed to be small in number. Of course, the only two arguments I've heard against it are "but, but... I want a big ship!" and "well, battleships have a restriction, its called a license!" - to the first, sorry, but life isnt fair. To the second, as has been pointed out by several people in this thread, credits arent exactly a big deal, any powertrader can afford a battleship within a week, the license restriction doesnt stop them at all.

The LR also leads by example. My solution to reducing capspam in Liberty was to enact a policy of docking rights to two stations. Alcatraz and Buffalo, both of them used clever RP logic to justify them

Only one problem here del, technically you're doing exactly the same thing that the admins are sanctioning for lately - forcing your RP on others. All it would take is some noob in an outcast battleship crying that you didnt let him dock on buffalo.

That's one of the problems I have here, the absolutionist concept of player freedom. I'm sorry, but basically telling the players "you can do anything you want, dont let those mean factions bully you!" is not helping the situation any - and coming from someone like yourself who has attempted to introduce restrictions on players at your faction's bases means this decision makes even less sense.
