' Wrote:Having an inactive Liberty official faction is just as OORP as having an actively invasive and militant Zoner faction that attacks Rheinland while maintaining peace on the forums.
No, having characters inactive is not ooRP. That is senseless. The comparison with a Zoner faction is in fact not a comparison, and is a completely different situation.
You need to differentiate between an inactive character and an inactive faction. An inactive faction does not imply an inactive character. For example, low activity on behalf of the Liberty Navy would not mean that Admiral Dale as a character would get demoted - the Disco universe is still 'happening', Dale is still commanding war fleets and directing logistics. It just happens that when the John logs in Dale, he is actively controlling the RP.
' Wrote:No, it is not wrong, and that is not what I am saying. What I am saying is that roleplay should be represented by ingame activity. A character cannot exist in this community purely through forum stories. Yes, the stories are great. You have a more detailed, vivid character. But if you want to roleplay a flying ace, you need to ace a few people ingame; if you can't PvP for your life, then it's rather silly roleplaying a flying ace, don't you think?
If John wants to write about being an ace, then what's wrong with that? If he wants to roleplay an ace *in-game* then of course he needs be able to win at PvP.
