Capital Ship Realism

[n00bl3t]

-_- anger has no place in this. This proposal would change much and require much. I'd rather not be the one to get factions to use their faction rights more often, as I rather dislike factions for the reason that they get rights (even though they are a necessary evil). The proposal allows for fewer instances of these rules to be invoked.

You have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo, it's quite understandable to get emotional about it, but please don't. You yourself have acknowledged that the problem exists when you said that the rules in place to keep the system in check were not being used.
I've given it my all to answer all of your questions. If, however, you feel that I haven't - then my sincerest apologies.
So there was never a time when a cap ship succeeded in landing a hit on you and bound you to the engagement by draining your shields?
No, in a one on one fight, the fighter would not win. If it calls for backup, it would not be a one on one. In a battle of attrition, the cruiser has to just sit there while the fighter must continue dodging fire or die.
You're taking the quote out of context, as it was just an explanation on the rationale of why I happened to write a pro-fighter proposal first. Also, this is a logical fallacy.
Not quite sure how an 'I love caps too' statement validates a proposal regarding fighters within a thread regarding caps exclusively.

I am not angry. Well, if you are not going to get them to use the rules to solve situations of abuse, then stop complaining. Quite simple really.

I am not emotional, but eh, feel free to keep stating that I am. The problem exists in people not presenting sufficient evidence. Not the rules. Therefore the rules do not need to be fixed. The people do.

You tried to flip it around on me, with the "your biased" card, and failed.

The only time a capital ship has hit me, was either when I was already in combat, where an LSC main gun hit me, and killed me, or the Isis. However, the Isis did not bind me to combat. If I get hit by capital ship weapons, I am doing it wrong.

Plausible and tangible situations. The fighter should not be holding it's own against a cruiser. It should be fleeing. Eh.

No, it need not dodge fire, or die, it can choose to flee from combat too.

They are both statement which talk about the vanilla FL aspects, due to how the game was built. No fallacy present.

Any thread on capital ships automatically involves all other ships, since capital ships interact with everything. Everything is inter-related.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
