shipsales - and RP

[Magoo!]

The captain of the nimitz didn't start in a transport and didn't powertrade between the us and china to save up for his carrier.

I'm afraid that I lol'd. Anywho, true, but it has been long accepted that the actual process of setting up a character was an ooRP one. I am of the opinion that while starting in a Starflea, flying across Sirius, shelling out an un-Godly amount of money, and then bribing people/doing missions is ooRP, getting rid of the ship shouldn't be; because once you get all that done, thats when the RP starts.

It sounds like people are griping about the very thing on which this community is founded based on convenience. When exactly did we start allowing for personal ease to get in the way of the Discovery RP 24/7 community?

Making a club at school doesn't cost 500 mill, but we made the faction creation fee such, along with the prolonged acceptance process, for the sake of increased RP quality. Its a hassle for the people who have to undergo said process, so why should we only now start making people's lives easier on something equally relavent in regards to RP?
