' Wrote:the researcher ID limits the role of the Rper/player, to just RP. minimal pvp. i'm suggesting why not do that with the ship. i'm starting to wonder why you arnt puting two and two togather on this O.o
the reason for doing it is simple- why does the lsf need more than a few intelligence platforms floating around? doing this would cause lolwut type of people to think- "wow, this capship sucks for combat i dont want it" and therefore its use for RP is preserved. its use would be for some one serious about role playing in the first place. not to mention, lifting any undue pvp expectations off the owner of that kind of ship, allowing them to focus on the RP.
an excuse would be that it was a third ship, thats presence never became known except after its first initial production.
The LSF's role involves PVP.
It is intended to be SRP-only, which means "lolwut" people are unlikely to get their hands on it.
