Potential suggestions to improve Phantom and Character interactions

[Virus]

there has been a very positive change in the admin team lately... i have seen them publicly announce that they made wrong decisions. - i don t know how that came into being... but that is showing a touch of humanity and human error that every player can understand. - it gives players the feeling that they are no subjects, but beings. ( i seriously mean it - its a VERY positive thing... that might also have happened in the past... but not as a public apology to those falsly accused - that has not really happened in "the old days" )

cause no one is so good to always give out good roleplay.

everyone ( without ANY exceptions ) gives brilliant roleplay one day - and utterly silly and stupid one another.

- they are no server police - so they must not act as such

*farmers alliance bomber? - don t the phantoms have their own ships now?

REAL fear is often subtle.

I blame Cannon, Korrd, and I for this change (mostly Cannon, to be honest). Much of the new system was Cannon and I trying to piece together a functional method of things when Del and Hoodlum disappeared. So far, it seems to be working. I hope that when Hoodlum and and the good Reverend return, they can adjust easily.

Admitting our mistakes. I'm trying to get into a bigger habit of doing that. It's something that seems to be working with the Admins, and well... Might as well try it with the Phantoms.

Farmer's Alliance bomber makes sense and was approved by admins who are not part of the Phantoms (or were not at the time). Besides that, we don't have... Any bomber at all. This is something I discussed in the other thread. Unfortunately, it seems that equipment-wise, much of the Phantom equipment has been half-assed. Guns don't have a matching color-scheme (fixing) and, apart from the Shadow/Raven Claw, we were simply given ships that didn't fit anywhere (see Huntress+Slipstream). That's fine, and I use both the Shadow and the Umbrage (Huntress) because they're nice ships and fit... Better than anything else available. The Slipstream is used by a surprisingly large number of Phantoms (Pitchfork, Puzzle off the top of my head).

Of course, I wouldn't be distraught if someone wanted to model us a full ship-line (or just a bomber!), but the few people I have asked have either not gotten to it, or have straight up said no.

Real fear... I've been a Phantom for a long, long time. The old tricks don't seem to work anymore. Things we used to do are now ... Well, people downright flame us for it. I've been trying to come up with new ways and we keep coming up blank. There's a few new recruits I've given little information about our SOP to see what they do as Phantoms and see if it's any better than what we currently do.

Any suggestions you can provide would be most helpful. Public or in PM, doesn't matter.

Re-evaluate your RP in-game

Does this even mean anything? Correct me if I am wrong, but your entire post boils down to this, mate. I can't work with this. You suggest nothing that is wrong, and you suggest no possible alternatives. Re-evaluate what I believe to generally pretty good (barely passable at the worst:dry:). Of course, I would be glad to listen to whatever you suggestions you have (you know my Skype) apart from gripes about the below.

If you're still complaining about Ze'ev killing you... Well, you insulted someone who feels that he is better than the average person and absolutely has a burning hatred for Junkers. To not attack you in a blind fury would be... Odd. (Unless I remember the event incorrectly.)
