How to make Discovery better?

To All,

From now on, if you refuse to show proof of your arguement, I will not answer.

Linkus,

In one of my original posts, I stated that this game is about the factions and thier relations with each other, and made some points based on this assertion. A group of people stated that this isn't true, as not every player is in a faction. And since not every player is in a faction, the rest of my post was meaningless as well. That post was my last attempt to show them, that regardless of the fact that they call themselves independents, they belong to a faction. I wasn't trying to state that everybody was in a player faction, only that they were in a faction of one type or another. They seem to think that because they are called independents that they don't belong to a faction, faction role-play shouldn't apply to them, and that they have no ties to factions. That isn't true by game mechanics, it isn't true by game definitions, it isn't true by straight english definitions, and logic certainly proved them false.


Nooblet,

I didn't answer your post, there were to many asking about what I did respond to. Give me one example of a player faction using up more of your spare time than an independent, and I'll answer. I've shown how it doesn't, you show how it does. You don't even make sense in the next part where you state you only have to follow an ID and non-player factions role-play, not a factions. You have to role-play your faction or you are breaking the rules. That's pretty straight forward.

I didn't state that they were exactly the same. But comparitively speaking, yes, npc factions and thier corresponding player factions are veryclose. In general the player factions are the logical next step of the npc factions. And why would players join player factions? That is what we have been trying to figure out, ways to get them to join, because there aren't enough perks compared to the drawbacks.

I haven't complained once about being killed on this thread, and I haven't heard to many others complain about it either. I have heard quite afew complain about capspam and ooc violations, but not to many about getting killed. And finally, you stated you had 35 characters and a high amount of cruisers said something sarcastic and then asked if you are part of the problem. Then yes, you are part of the problem. If the ships you fly the majority of the time are capital ships, yes, you are part of the problem.
