The Yukai Han

[Jihadjoe]

I just want to say how much stupendous fun I had and might continue to have being a part of this group. The kusari nationalist RP was a huge amount of fun.

My only character within the group was I.Saw.it.Second. I had some intriguing roleplay with people such as gafwmn, who I honestly thought was probably the best sport about it, and quickly learnt to never trust anyone in a mining ID'd ship without mining turrets.

However, the majority of players weren't like this. The overwhealming majority didnt deal with roleplay by handing out more roleplay, they told me I was breaking the rules, cussed me out, F1'd, anything they could to avoid getting pirated.

The rather funny thing about that, is half the mining ships I ended up blowing up due to them going "//No way in hell f***head!!" then re-engaging ten minutes later on an order funboat (you know who you are), half those mining ships could have broken me over their knee if they had half a thought to do so.

A mining ship with a uni 8 armour and two mining turrets, has eight, yes EIGHT rear facing turrets. If you were to put those 2.00 refire, 1050 damage turrets on there, then you would be able to do an insane amount of damage.

But rather than doing that. They carried no armour, nor any bats or bots half the time, and chose to rule lawyer and swear rather than roleplay and/or fight.

When you are mining, your eye should probably be on the roleplay contained in the situation, rather than the potential for credits.

That said, some of you were astonishingly awesome in roleplay. I remember floating around the tremont rings for an hour, scared to attempt anything due to the daft numbers of mining ships all staring at me and organising themselves, while I waited for one or two on their own. I was so scared to move that I ended up filling my hold with platinum through mining it myself.

It was a lot of fun.
