: D well perhaps not outcast one, but the lifespan increased. Citation from disco wiki. Now corsair do not need to sit in wheel chairs.
Well if the Wiki is not wrong or outdated it may be right.... but outcasts average lifespan is 150-170 years (i dont remember wich).
and we all know that a brain will never work perfectly with transplant organs (they may work 97% perfectly but those 3% can be fatal in a space fight)
Also... i guess the average human lifespan would be 90-100 years or so.... using organs you may add 15-25 years depending on the organs quality, the successfulness of the transplant and the matter if the host body fully accepts the transplant or not... Also crete has a huge problem with food (too little produced, too many people) meaning that the AVERAGE corsair lifespan will only increase bout 2-3 years cause, well not everyone can afford the staggering blackmarket prices and hospital bills... Many corsairs are poor or just lowly paid... they cannot afford the best organs and doctors, thus the average lifespan is not much altered, while the corsair elite's average lifespan may be 20-30 years above normal
______________________________________________________________________________________ About the RP and your goal of becoming official:
Your RP and the fact that your filling in for OPG which had left a rather huge gap for you to close, is good. I think your History and ranks are sensible enough... And if your slaves aint up to the task, then they can be delivered pr transport to work in the orange fields of Malta:P
Now i already know you got 1 warning and 1 sanction (one against your leaders too. tsk tsk)... This dont look good at all, i also noticed the rather serious argument between you and the HAF... NOT GOOD....
You've been punished by admins, now your own "people" and allies..... and as late as yesterday, grimly himself attack my Oc trident unprovoked in the NFZ of freeport 9 (he also attacked a zoner wich was 100% passive in this fight) now when a Benitez comes along he IGNORED his order to stop the attack on the zoner stating clearly "ill never see him as an friend"... something like that. Now inRP crete is full of people and low on food, commodities and other "basic" resources... The zoners are your suppliers. Now you threaten your only true "ally" one that is even keeping your people alive, keeping your chance to fight outcasts/BH/RH/keepers/wilde/BD/GC. Lets just say it like this....
I Do not approve... Not because you attack my trident (yeah its scary arms dealer sitting tight at a freeport doing nothing) but because your on the wrong trail.
To list the points which makes me say no;
- attacking and rejecting the need or willingness to respect and be friendly to the lifeline of the corsair nation
- not showing much rp during alpha/eta raids, mostly its... "Hi there, were here to kill you"... said in one way or another
- ADMIN punishments, one recently being warned
- ignoring the commands given by a superior (Benitez)
- attacking within the freeport NFZ without permission from a zoner
Now you can flame me all you want... saying its personal or not... i tried to be straight forward nice
Some of the arguments are really motivated and I'm quite sicken by this. Im really not gonna be responsable for good people being flamed. Perhaps I'm running from it, buts this is really not my kind of game.
Until things won't change from the leaders perspective about the damands, perhaps is best for me to resing.</strike>
First off, as a faction leader, I know that all this anonymous feedback (feedback where people wont tell the faction leader who in his faction is causing the problem) is one of two things, A) Bull, just someone who for some reason doesn't like the faction and wants to smear the name of the faction. B) Useless. A faction leader cannot deal with members who are causing a problem if no one will tell him the names of the faction members causing a problem. This is no help to the faction, and isnt that the point of the feedback thread? Not so people can bitch, but instead so people can give the faction leader the information they need to improve their faction.
Second, The Sails are pirates, they are going to be mean, and they dont necessarily have to give you 24 paragraphs in verse form before opening fire. They also dont have to make a demand before opening fire. They can bring you down to one pixel of amour before making a demand if they want, and there is nothing OORP about it.
Now, I am not a fan of the Sails 100% of the time, but in the end, I am not a fan of myself and my game play on the server 100% of the time, not even close, we all make mistakes, we all do things we wish we hadnt. That said, I have seen some very very good rp coming out of the Sails as well, so lets try and give them the tools to make it more of the later and less of the former, eh? Let's remember why these feedback threads are here, they are here so factions can improve themselves, not so the community has a place to throw their crap at a faction.

I'm too lazy to do it. I'm not complaining about the guy who shooted me. I'm just saying you are not ready to become official. Reporting the guy has nothing to do with this thread. Too hard to understand?

Bringing someones shields down over half is classed as being engaged, so to do that with out demands or a single sentence , is to me breaking the rules.
So if the Sails can fix up these issues and RP a little i think more people would be happier.
i feel this moaning about piracy is pretty subjective. I pirate like this and yet no one has complained about me to my knowledge. dudes just looking for things to throw.
that said, I would like clarification re: pirating cryer and docking on atka.

I quote you rule 6.6
Quote:
6.6 Aggressors are not allowed to destroy a trade vessel prior to issuing a demand and allowing sufficient time to respond. Demands may be cargo, credits or an RP demand, such as leaving the system. "Halt" is not a demand.

And why should I believe?
Your not helping at all. You know how much times I've heard "I dont have money" "// i really got to go" "NFZ LOL" "You dont rp"
You know how many times I needed to end all rp's becouse 1/3 of the traders uses rp to impulse to the freeport faster? YOu think I don't see that?
Do you atleast realise how boring it is to sit and wait there near the jumphole for about 30 minutes untill some interaction comes? You know how is frustrating to rp with trader for to long becouse you know that soon bunch of RM fighter can show up and pew pew you down which will mean switchign character for me?
You know how many times i've been ganked by respected official factions? While - I do not do - same thing Why? becouse its bigger pleasure to win a hard fight than shoot a running guy who can't fight back.
HECK, Then one indie faction was ganking a RoS fighter in gamma I metagamed switched on RHA to help the poor guy out becouse I have the sense of fairplay which for me is uphiger then almost anything else here. Or damn variuos situation in NY, then helped a hacker which was ganked by 2 fighters and a gunboat with my Indie LR char (now yeah flame me becouse I pay attention to the player rank to decide how much credits to take, flame me becouse I watch "y" just becouse I do not want to 'roleplay' with npc and ghousts in the empty system, flame me for matagaming becouse I watch what kind of size hostile force we gonna encounter in awaiting systems becoue I want to keep things balanced)
No you come without any proofs flame the gusy I fly with for about 2 years in this server. Other came later of course and pile crap on them without giving any proof about it.
And you call this help? 'Improve your rp' Whos rp to improve? to who I should give the warning in the faction? ahh? No-one asking to make trial by forums, you have PM for that. But no, you know how it looks: " your rp doesnt complies with mine so I'll use my status and forum to trash you out " even if the rp ir pretty decent.
If this is not the case, sent me the screens. If not, please atleast hold yourself from making -trial by forum-for entire faction. (particualry that dialoge, that one is clearly made up, as I see it)
THANK YOU. (oh and you can adress those screens to Grimly now)
We opened a thread becouse we trusted that people will help us. Instead seems the yare using to trash unwanted rp. Who else pirates in sigmas now? Ech? Some gunboat who "I not speek englis?" oh perhaps a a loltridente who stops my smuggling transport and says "one mil" ?
I know quite a number of people who were happy becouse OPG disbanded. And now are unhappy becouse some similiar band still remains.
You know what rp is? .. its not about creating your story and fullfilling it in-game. Nope it isin't. It's about then diffrent non-complying roleplays clashes into one. Then conflicts starts. And it doesn't matter if you have long wall of text. Or briliant story written. IFyou can't handle that conflict well and keep it in game, perhaps it's time to ask yourself if you are really taht good rp'er who can judge others roleplay.
P.S Thanks Zelot that was inspiring.
Edit: I know that we need improving in some cases. Hell, s*** happens you know. Now I somehow understand how the OPG leaders felt and they disbanded whole group.
Edit II: and even is sails are aggressive, or overagressive sometimes. I like it this way. even if we are overstepping its bounds to Kusari space time to time. Liek chasign down traders from sigmas for example or delivering Human Organs to Kabukicho, if it brings more variuos rp situations it's good. For example Ivan's post for his Kishiro. He propably should make us some problems, alright thats fun if it brings more conflicts we might need to solve.
More about the damands. I personaly disagree then asking for to much money, anyhow I'll try to convince some people. But agian... back to fairplay. Is fair for pirate to sit around 30 minutes near tl and watch at one spot waiting for a trader getting about 3 - 5 mln an hour? Would you like to act in same way?
