Phantom Empire Faction Feedback

[Zelot]

Just a few things and then I will be done here, first about a year ago, Unsielle went around to all the various unlawful factions on a hunt to isolate the Phantoms. Instead of trying to isolate the Phantoms in-rp, he decided to go to all of their feedback threads and try and oorp them into breaking their ties with the Phantoms. Most of the factions said they would prefer to have the Phantoms neutral, because it is easier and safer for them, thats a pretty legitimate rp response. If you want to do the same thing again, and talk to the different factions, be my guest, in this time of FR5's and ninja repping, it's pretty silly to blame relations between groups on just one of the groups. Any faction is welcome to FR5 us, but thats not even necessary, all they have to do is tell us, and we will tell cannon to ninja rep us hostile to them. Fact is, those factions dont come and tell us they want to be hostile, so how are we supposed to know?

Second as to the claims of not giving people a chance to get away, we arent really supposed to. We follow the rules of the server, and we rp, but interactions with Phantoms often occur at lightning speed, because they have to, when Phantoms hang around, there is usually a fleet of lawfuls on the way to kill them. Protracted conversations are often dangerous for Phantoms. We do it when we can or when we need to, but whether it takes a while or not, it is in rp. I have probably have said this a hundred time before, but rp is not only the content of chats between characters, it is often just as legitimate a move in rp to shoot at your enemy, or your target.

Anyway POZ, I think we have listened to and tried to address your feedback, but at this point, I think we are not going anywhere with the discussion, so I think it's time we let it drop in this particular thread.
