Player distribution [Rant?]

[NerdRage]

So I decided to log into my RFP and RP a bit, 15 minutes and the only two souls I see are two departing traders, who are obviously in a hurry to get credits.

I look at the chat menu, 122 people, where are all the players??

i took a pad and paper, tallied the numbers and made you this graph:



Who's idea was it to make any new systems? let alone a whole new house?!

Everyones in New York! lazily floating around typing theyre little chats, pirating, venting they're egos (a liberty speciality) or rushing around trying to herd all the pirates.

people flock to NY because of it's massive amount if players, ive even seen kusari destroyers and Gallic Brigand gunboats there because the people get so damn lonely boringly floating around rephrasing "2 mil R dai" for the sacred occasion someone appears on your radar that they resort to murderous OORP!

I once saw a Hogosha yelling out advertising to get out of liberty and tour Kusari, me and another Junker bullied him out of NY calling him insane. now i totally understand why he'd do that, resorting to great OORP just to get someone to occasionally RP with on your neck of the woods.

people are sick of OORP naggy PVPwhoring? I don't get that much, because i have barely any RP, even less PVP (which I suck at) because all the players are holed up in liberty!!

what kind of capital is it when you can yell "i have yellow apes in my rainbow socks" without getting a "WTF" or a "have you gone MAD?"

New Berlin! that's where!

open your eyes people! interesting things happen in other places
