Guard Systems

[Agmen of Eladesor]

You really think they do this because they desperately need imaginary money? No, I think it's done because they love to play Discovery and contribute to it. I don't believe we pay ship modders, do we? And they make their creations available to all...

Edit: Yes, Hack, I totally agree that changes should be spelled out ahead of time, and should be done with the consent of the original modders (when possible - some of them left a long time ago).

Well, somehow I don't think Seth is going to give up the 500 million credits that we paid him to mod Omega-56 for us, just because you have some strange ideal in mind.

Heck, I go out and seek people down and blow them up in game (or at least try to do so, anyway) for imaginary money.

The point being - if I had the computer skills and the time, sure, I'd make the mods myself for our system. I don't. But one thing we did and do have is a series of players in our faction that were willing to donate the equivalent of an hour or two of their time (20 - 50 million credits) so that one skilled player can take the number of hours needed to make something right.

As for the argument about the Molly's... sure, they have a nice system now. But it's not their HOME. Their HOME is Dublin, and always will be. If you don't understand the concept of HOME and being willing to do things to get it, keep it, and defend it - then you need to think about why you're really playing a Molly. It'd be sort of like telling a Rheinlander that hey, your home for 800 years of New Berlin, well, you can't have that, but we'll give you this nice piece of land out here in Omicron-74. Sure, it's not what you want, but you can be totally satisfied with what you have, right?
