... Except when you constantly get screwed over in fights it begins to become less fun for virtually anyone: Even if you're in it for just the RP you'll eventually end up never being able to RP 50% of your character: aka the results of winning. But I've always attributed win/lose based on lag and baseline skill rather than gear; it's getting hit when I don't know I'm getting hit that gets me killed.
In terms of the Persephone and whatnot.. how often do you see custom ships like them? And what of the argument that you're "inflating Disco with ships nobody uses"? What if the person who intended to use it no longer does? The RP wore out? Don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have a Minuteman for Jimmy Doyle but when is that ever gonna happen for me?
