I'm in RHA for about a year now. Saying that RHA is rotting is quite in-accurate. Yet in those times then I joined I remember some one from Rheinland Military complaining "you log on only then there is RM around, and after dealing with them log off as fast as you logged in"
Well in those times, than there was no mining (like we have omega 7 now, which is hot spot for any activity) so I could understand them quite easily. To sit at the tradelane for about 30 minutes and wait for a lolwutter who doesn't cares about "Revolution message" and rather silently cruisses away wasn't intresting at all.
But now things changed. Omega 7 is a fine spot for people. Pirating, PVP ... and of course. These two aren't possible without RP. Most intresting thing is, that with those people around, you are actually able to be talkative more. For example DHC miner or so. Hessians are intrested in convincing rheinlanders to believe their cause. Hell there was Kruger player group who were silently supporting hessian movment. That rp was quite intresting.
But what comes to corsairs:
I really do not believe that "Die Corsair" was everything they said. Yes, of course I neither believe that hessian will start discussing politics, culture diffrences, what he had for breakfast, how they rise their children. No... they won't try to do this.
You won't ask a guy for dinner who you want to stab 7 times, kick his dead body, put face down in the digged grave, pee on his back and leave to rot after it. No you want to kill him. Therfore 90 percent or so lines written by hesian or corsair side are with hostile intent to kill each other.
Corsair - Hessian RP without PvP is parctical impossible since they fight each other. You can't escape it. Refusal to fight just becose "I'm not in the mood to fight" is quite an OoRP itself. But if you really don't feel like it. We are all players. PM one of the [RHA] with "//" messege telling that you really don't want to bother yourself with a fight and they, most likely, will let you go.
Quote: When members can't offer decent RP, can't offer a fair fight
Maybe all RHA members are not such good roleplayers like you. But what touches fairness I don't ever remember RHA outnumbering someone. In most of the cases... we were always the ones outnumbered. Or facing numbers who replanish after each player opponent side losses.
At this point.. I'll ask to back up this with evidence like screenshots and such. If not provided, I think I and rest of RHA can treat such statments as product of tension about certain events which might caused this rather than rational argument.
