And there you have it.On this server,arch enemies inRP prefer to sit around and talk to eachother like they are bestest friends.
Battlegroups that have completely opposite phylosophies and theyare rephacked -1 to eachother prefer to sit around and talk to eachother instead of attack eachother.Factions that are at war with eachother..Cause that's what the nazis and the soviets did in '41.They stood across the frontline and had a chat.They didn't fight at all,god forbid.
I believe some big parts of the server have a big adversity towards PVP,and I would like to clarify something.PvP is good.Like,really it's good.
RP?Awesome.I enjoy it.Really.
But to a point.When you have an interaction between 2 opposing groups that are red to eachother (inRP ofcourse,and the lore CLEARLY says they hate eachother and DO fight eachother),and they choose to sit around and talk to eachother for half an hour instead of blowing eachothers brains out,it seems downright harmful to me.
Like my encounter from last month.BDM| vs UN|.They spent literally 30 minutes talking.After 30 minutes,they finally started fighting,only cause Auxesia got soo bored and was there to open fire first.+1 to them
Or I meet a K'hara player 1 year ago mind controlling a zoner/civilain in o.delta.Me as a O'rhu I say "aha,a target,let me open fireand kill the evil squid".I did the necessary RP before engaging.
No,says the nomad player on private // . "Stand down,DONT ruin the RP interaction".
Cause The order sacrificed most of its assets and pilots in the nomad war,and even lost Toledo to the nomads.And now I cannot engage a K'hara player,literally the best enemy for The order,because I was "intrerrupting the RP".Because he chose to inject his tentacles into that civilian I couldn't open fire.Riiiiight.....
People.Get your s**t together.Factions that are hostile/enemy to eachother ARE supposed to fight.They are not supposed to share tea at a table as best friends.They are supposed to rip eachother's guts out.Why?Cause they hate eachother.
OFCOURSE,I DO support healthy RP.I DO support it.I literally get mad when somebody engages me without no RP or just one copypasted RP line.But that does not mean you should indulge in hours long RP with your enemy.
My advice:When you see your arch enemy/at war faction , exchange some RP lines.Go ahead,talk to eachother.2-4 minutes of RP at most should be okay.But don't drag it out for the love of god.
BAF are not supposed to be talking to GRN for 20 minutes before they realise they are the enemy who want to enslave their country.The enemy who killed thousands of breotnians and took over Leeds by force.
Same for outcasts and corsairs.
Stop pushing this exagerated RP.It is disgusting and degrading.Exchange the necesary RP between at war factions,but keep it at a minimum.A couple of lines and then open fire.Cause that's what you are supposed to do.
Hostile and more towards neutral factions ARE encouraged to RP in my oppinion.Don'tresort to lethal force so easily,go ahead and talk to eachother.It's healthy and encouraged.Engage after a prolongued period of time,if talks don't bring your desired outcome.
If any of you wants to contact me,add me on skype and I'll speak to you.

This ain't 'nam dude.
People tend to enjoy chatting with each other, nevermind their faction or reputation.
Nothing is stopping you from not talking to your enemies and just shoot them straight ahead.
Most of the time, it's much more complicated than "red is dead" .
People have developed all kinds of story lines that involve defection or other sorts of things.
So before you judge, try to see things from the other side of the fence, respect the other players' choices, you know, it is and RP server after all.
Saying that you shouldn't role play with someone and just shooting because he's red is kinda of a buzzkill.
Nomads are hostile to (almost) everything, does this means they should cease any and all RP with other players and just pew 24/7?
No one is forcing anyone to fight, people choose to fight. If they don't feel like fighting, but they feel like talking, let them.
FYI, from Christmas to New Years eve 1914 (during the first World War), the opposing sides (German and British troops) decided to temporarily end the battle so that they could sing, talk, exchange gifts, bury the deceased and even have a few games of football together. They were "supposed" to fight, but they chose not to because they felt like the fighting could be done another time.

This is an extremely isolated example.
This happens on a regular basis on disco.People favour talking instead of shooting.
A BAF dunkirk captain chose to make some honorary arangements with a corsair cruiser in cambridge,so that we would fight.They spent like 20 minutes chatting in system chat like children,literally like children(i'll get you!!nah you wont,im hidden come get me!!if i catch you you're dead!!naa you wont catch me).After they found eachother they proceeded to talk.Corsairs want to anexate Cambridge to their empire,and a BAF captain makes negociations with them.Oh,wait,he was waiting for me to come in my crecy and pew that corsair.Still.....
Get over it people.Red factions are there for a reason:to exchange 3-4 lines and then shoot eachother.You dont like fighting?Go play a zoner.

By that logic, you should never leave conn.
Also, zoners get shot. Quite often.

God knows we sanction people enough for engaging improperly - we start sanctioning people for not engaging now?
You're smarter than this.
The UN| to BDM| exchange was an attempt at creating a new interesting story direction that fell flat. That's not exaggerated RP, that's RP. You didn't get a PM at the time telling you to go away - that's bad gameplay.
Engage if your ID allows and if your individual character motivation gives you reason. Do what you want within your ID. End of.
Can we not have these boring re-iterative threads where the Hamburg City crowd bang on about how RP is getting in the way of their pews and how the RP crowd say that people are just hunting for blues? Accept that we're all on the same server and move the crap on.
To be honest, I'd rather suggest you mind only your own business instead of dictating people how to play their roles while they are not violating rules.
