As for me the RP is 'creative'
But can you have other ships rather than just bloody osiris's? maybe some ghost fighters/bombers..
EDIT: actually this would be quite interesting to see roleplayed, rumors of ghost ships haunting the omicrons, some scary crap.
Anyways if you can polish your Faction information, and maybe get some of your members straight? (HEard reports of one of your ghost ships was blurting out 'lol' in system)
Other than that all i have to say is go for what you think is right, we might have a potential faction here...
Well I had explained that in the next sentence of the post.
Huh. Ghoust ship should be a ship. I understand yer need cruisser or bs class for that. But anyhow, this is freelancer, not some silent hill. And even if I would want to see such thing, that would be skilled roleplayers who are alreedy well noticed. For such rp you would actually need Terrorist ID. And you wont get it in the mean time.
And if you really would want to have ghoust ship, that ship which became ghoust should have its background as a living one earlier. Am I wrong? Like Gentles madness story for example.
I don't think this is going to turn into a faction, nor do i want it to, the ghost ship idea does not seem faction like material. Just a group of Ghost haunting the mainly the omicrons, maybe they can start to haunt bretonia as in dublin, etc... but turning into a faction doesn't seem like a good idea.

My only problem with this idea is that ghosts are supposedly ethereal, and cannot interact with the mortal world. A whole crew of ghosts manning a battleship going around looking for souls? Sounds really cheesy.
Unless its a crew of a ship pretending to be ghosts through scrambling voice comms and things like that. That would be more believable. But if youre RPing actual ghosts, it doesn't fit in. This is science fiction, ghosts are sort of the opposite to that. Yes I know ghosts have been done before in Disco, but I avoid them because I'm sorry but I don't want to RP with a ghost in sci fi. Ruins the feel of the game, in my opinion. What's next, demons that escaped from hell?
Why cant you be ghosts...in a Liner....or a LF. Why Osirisies, last time I encountered you, you attacked my Zoner Griffin with a ***YAAAAGH*** or something like that.
Errant.Ventures ghost, did kill, however...it was more of a game, in which only those that participated became vulnerable.
Kind of like voodoo.
Now....In regards to a ghost ship...Initally I wanted to do that, when I had my scylla, however, it became hard....to do with RP characters staying off your ship.
If they RP a boarding onto your adrift, seemingly harmless, valuable ghost ship, then you could RP the Demise of these characters, on your ship, however you want.
For reference to awesome Ghost Ships, in Media:
Event Horizon
The Triangle
Virus.....more of an Alien AI takeover, but you could RP it
for your benefit, Errant.Venture's ghost was a Poltergeist, which has the ability to affect things in the Physical world.
Personally, I think this is a scifi environment and 'ghosts' should be completely left out of this server and it's RP. The ROS were pushing it, but at least they only fly smaller craft (from what I've seen). To me, this entire ghost.ship thing screams "we want to fly battleships and shoot whoever we meet", and that kind of attitude does not belong here.
Now, I had suggested a faction idea way back during 4.84 called the Geists, who 'acted' like ghosts but were not. They used the psychological warfare aspect of behaving like ghosts leftover from the rheinland-GMG war to scare the crap out of their victims, but when you got to the core of it, they were just pirates using old salvaged ships and acting on opportunity.
I disagree...If some one wants to RP a ghost ship cool...or, better yet some one should RP the Ghosts of the Hispania, or other wrecks...that way you could theoretically RP a wreck thats already there.
However you do it, its your RP, so in all honesty it doesnt matter what anyone says, its ur Baby.
If you want help testing the RP I can help if I'm on. Also, Errant stuck to the Badlands....more for spooky effect then anything, and the fact that searching for a ship visually there is dam near impossible....like the bermuda triangle.
I would love to come correct all of you, but at the moment iv been really busy with uni exam retakes. So cant do much right now, I hope the Ghosts already out there are keeping you entertained. Look forward to being back soon!
Hmm tenacity has this obsession we are capwhoring? Or maybe hes jealous that he is order but cant afford an Osiris! I feeel resentment from him ? Anyway if you want tenacity, we can help you get an osiris then you can be a Ghostie too?? hehe
Or maybe you can tighten up this group of idiots in capital ships and tell them to stop raping single fighters while also addressing the concerns that people have raised here?
