This'll hurt worse.

Can you make a connection between Freelancer and Battlestar Galactica? Probably not. Does it matter? Nope. The Colonials found a way, and thats there RP, and you have no right to judge it, Wether it be jedi or not...

I never got into watching Battlestar Galactica, so I completely missed the connection and assumed that the Colonials in game where created and added by disco team. But, that not the point your making, your saying I was attacking his rp because it is similar to a preexisting fiction. I guess in a way I may have done that, and that was wrong of me. I of all people should have known better, especially since the next character I was planning was going to be Bruno J. Global, and I was going to use a carrier and I was going to name it called SDF-1. So I owe yoda an apology. :(

Congratulations.

You flamed Yoda. That is how I saw it.

Personal attacks? That is what this whole thing is based upon. "OMG, one day when I was on my OC dread four Osiri' turned up and raped me, hence, nerf and restrictions", "me and my friends with five bombers just did not have the skill to take down the cruiser, hence, restrictions", "that capship uses robots instead of crew, this goes against all sense and sensibility as well as my limited definition of rp, hence restrictions". The whole thing is based on people supposedly having a bad experience with a few independent capital ships and then trying to take a sledgehammer to those who fly without a tag.

I know for a fact that I can find worse capital ship role-players in factions than myself. I also am sure that I can find people who are better than me. Being in a faction does not automatically make you awesome.

In the end, this is meant to be a game that is fun and fair for all. Just because one BS chased down your LF, which by the way is ridiculous considering the BS does not have a thruster and it's weapons are so slow, does not mean you have to ruin my fun because your fun was ruined.

Edit: Just to clarify my earlier statement. I would rather have a compassionate, understanding role-player, who plays an alternatively unusual role, and who is not judgemental, to RP with on the server, than one who thinks he is God's gift to the role-playing world and will ruin any RP he does not agree with or condone.

So your the Yoda? that explains why you took it so personal. Well let me start by saying I'm sorry, "I'm sorry". My intention was not to target you and your role play skills. I did not post that because I was angry at you, in fact I have only seen this Yoda ship once or twice in passing. It seemed like a valid example at the time, but in hindsight it apparently wasn't. Also, I want you to know that I don't find my role play skills to be superior to anyone; I type slow and I don't splle well, some of the rp situations I create are half baked and lead to situations that make no sense, and sometimes I talk with these // to much.


That being said the motive for me wanting cap ships to be exclusively faction base is not fueled be personal vendetta against them or the people that fly them, and I am not upset the they "raped me". The reason I believe they should be exclusive to factions is because this will:
A) lower the amount of cap ships
B) This will boost faction participation
C) this will lesson the likely hood of oorp cap ships

I personally think Capital Ships should be rarer and their pilots should be held to a higher standard (but I also think the should be beefed up too). Battle Ships are not a dime a dozen, the are gargantuan machines of war whos momentum directly affects the history. When a Battleship goes down in battle it isn't some minor set back, it could quite possibly have shifted the tides of war a battle that will be known for ages to come. This is what I want to happen here.
