Keepers

[ryoken]

Humorous, but wrong. The ONLY reason people get that is because of one of two things:

1) We've met you before and know you like to scream for help, so we'd rather off you quickly and get on to more fun things.

2) You just screamed for help.

My Junker and one other with me had a long,and interesting RP chat outside Trafalgar where we were mining with a Nomad. We were both on guard,but we figured if it did not go hostile,we would leave it be. The other ended up joining,and was put through a bunch of "TESTS".
So the Keepers do not shoot junkers on sight,or this 1 was just more interested in RP i do not know. It could have been 2 Salvagers with Missiles to 1 nomad fighter who knows.

I still think people are under rating the intelligence of the player base in Discovery. Not everyone will run to get a Nomad if made availible. Same as no one ran to Gailic space for the good ships,weapons. Reason? They were limited to certain areas,and had restrictions. Now limiting Indies to a select few systems will limit how many will want to play Nomad. Look at how many freelancers/mercs/generic pirates and so on are out there. WHY? cause they want to travel everywhere,and limiting a Nomad ID would deter those lolwuts to a large degree.
It is pretty moot right now,as the admins will never open up the closed factions,unless it is planed for 4.86. Personally like 4.85 they will probly make "MORE" limited invite only factions.Same as 4.84 before that.
Soon it will be faction lancer,and Invite only to play at all,and then death like many server's before it.
The more you limit,or show favortism to any group/groups the more people will rage,and quit.
Already a large amount of very good players have quit over the years,and your seeing more and more Ragequit topics each day.
