Battleships- a solution

[JIVA]

but ivan ...

what if - a trader was actually roleplaying a trader very well, made RP runs and really "earned" the ship more than MANY factions ( who partly have incognito traders and DO powertrade runs like any other ).

then they transfer the money to a new char - a no name. - and their forum postcount is zero, too.

they ask humbly for a battleship. - no one knows them, cause no one really associates them with the good trader. and even if - a member that posts an application with postcount #1 - can he really be a good RPer? ( thats sarcasm which WILL be applied )



who are you - and others that would decide - able to tell who is good and who is bad. would you ask such a player to reveal his trader to you?


i wonder - would the official factions reveal all their traders to the public? - those that really finance them via a /givecash command?

it may be quite interesting.



then there is the responsibility:

will YOU be made responsible when you mess up? - what if a powertrader really is a brilliant RPer in a battleship and he just had to earn money to get what he is best in. - you deny it to him... and so deny the chance for him to actually show that he s good.

and another thing... i wrote it earlier some months ago ( in one of the other "restrict x threads" )

when i claim the right to decide who is worthy and who is not, i must be prepared to be responsible for my decision. - so if i decide that someone is "good" - and he messes up.... it is my responsibility. ( yes... you won t like that ) . are you prepared to take the blame? or will you say "thats not my business, i approved him and now he messes up, lets bomberwhore him"
