There is NO problem that can`t be solved by the use of high explosives.

Even Guard systems? need to remember that. Must ask some factions what they think of Keepers saying their guard systems is Keeper ZOI.

What if you put it the other way, why not Guard Systems. They'll get shot anyway, a guard system doesn't change that.

Yet, Another comment that doesnt contribute to topic.

Keepers have no ZoI... They can be find everywhere.

Some of them will shot

SOme of them wont get shot.

Some of them just want to RP. Can you find that in Omnicroms without being shot at? Only at OC space maybe adn even then, They tend to get shot by indies just because theyr red.

Guard systems are not OORP.

Those guard factions do not 'own' that system like Crossfire, where its sanctionable to enter a guard system.

Guard systems arnt bought with real money, meaning nobody 'holds' any server rights on those system.

Guard systems are a part of Sirius, but they are INRP claimed as a NPC factions system, not a player faction. Sure, Playerfactions like TAZ might own 'base' in rp, btu they do not decide if a nomad is curious and when it enters, to tell them off.

Nomads ZoI is everywhere. (I have never been In gallia so I do not know about that.)

Nobody knows what Nomads wants.. Some of them want to befriend, soem of them are aggressive.

Some of them use humans to theyr advantage. Some of them start conflicts, Some of them decide to ally with other then Outcast. Some of them decide to take minds over...

It is called I believe, rolepay.

Its not OORP again. I use certain guard systems as a shortcut to get somewhere for instance.

Its up to that faction to do somethign about that: Ea, VIrginia: Navy should do something about anyone tresspassing.

Same goes for Londonderry, where mollys would need to do something baout tresspassers..

So its perfectly legit, and not OORP.

Its up to faction's to do something about it, and I dont mean OORPly., but iRP, meaning to actualyl guard theyr system.

Also, Some people dont read news. Like I only read news when a major event happenent.

To be honest, for a bunch that have the privilege of shooting anyone in sight with little to no warning with some of the most overpowered equipment and ships in Sirius, there isn't too much problem with Keepers going on a rampage.

Sure, you've got the odd Marduk that suddenly pops into the Omicrons for an exercise in Order/BHG/Zoner cap wreckage physics engine testing - or the odd jelly snub group that comes out of nowhere to gang up on lone gunboats in the middle of nowhere, but all in all they usually keep things reasonable.

Hell, the things stated above contribute to the whole pants soiling thing that the Nomads are supposed to inspire (contrary to Akura's description of the Nomads as squishy plushies that only wanted hugs and co-existence, which while Akura is more than qualified to say as a member of the faction in question, just isn't how Nom Noms were meant to be percieved in canon).

It's just that bad experiences are a whole lot more memorable than good ones, and since the Keepers are not as common an occurrence than say... indie liberty navy caps, their scarcity doesn't give much opportunity to change opinions that fast.

Keep in mind that all members of the Keeper faction are experienced members of the community, and should be given the benefit of the doubt. Also keep in mind that the common reaction to shoot keepers first and ask questions never has led to a vicious cycle of who shoots whom first so as to not die in a very unsatisfactory fashion.

TLDNR: Give keepers the benefit of the doubt when it comes to pew pew before RP, and then they will have the ability to rp before pew pewing you. It's not like Keeper RP is all that bad, mostly it's just jumbled up text that takes forever to understand, when it's not stuff like *warmth* or *your mind is occupied by the taste of strudel*

A few months back when Keepers started coming to *My preeeshuus* Taus with those NOMboats, I quit acknowledging their ***RP***. MY character's met them before and will /1-engage any Nomad in sight until either one dies or runs away. Keeper and indie alike. Sorry guys, but you're stinking, malevolent, genocidal jellyfish from space. NOT a conversation partner. Not iRP. Not for me.

Wilds are a different story because they're supposedly undrcover. So when I see one I just try and RPly mock this whole "Pretend you don't see a wild" metagaming issue as much as possible and goad the guy into even more RPly exposing himself.

The Keeper Guard system is Omicron-99, yet we see a million billion Order Gebs flying through farming Nomads and shooting Keepers without a word, almost daily.

Know what? We -do- rp. At least, we try
But answer me then, should we complain and QQ at forums everytime we get ganked? So. What should we do like in video below, just get ganked without a word? Plus 5 times after that?
Code:
http://www.xfire.com/video/41529d/
Like that example above. QQ? No. You get ganked, with/without RP, live with it. I wonder, when you get ganked without rp by oher factions, why are there not QQs. Why are keepers/nomads/(wilde maybe) then like qq forum magnet. And ryoken. As we all know how much you like keepers... You know keeper zoi has been serious wide, like forever, but you still whine about it. Just stop it, please.
