It is bad because we are out of SRP ability. It limits you and forces you to create another char with other affiliations and such and derives half of the players who would like to try rp away from the server.

When it is combined with SRP, it works well to prevent weirdo situations but SRP was its compensating side, when its gone, its like mindles "you cannot do this" rules at certain spots.

Agrees with Ophidian's view 100%
Bring back SRPs and the tech chart will be fine.

If I recall correctly, the very most of previous attempts to change anything big which were proposed by players were dead quite soon and then forgotten...but meh.

The only thing that has ever bothered me about the tech chart is that it goes for all technology, not only useful tech. Would it be such a problem if there was an Order pilot in a Defender? Given that he/she has good inRP reasons for using it, I don't see a problem there and I doubt it would be overused.

Oh and it could be a bit dynamic to reflect present relations between factions.

The tech chart serves its purpose. If the special Requests were open, players would once again be able to experiment with Role-playing ideas. Currently the tech chart is restricting players because they cannot role-play effectively unless they join factions or have admin buddies. Maybe that is the idea, not the admin part, but the "joining faction" bit, I don't know.

I would love to have different stories for my characters, however, I don't see the point at the moment as you get no reward for putting that sort effort into your Role-playing. Hopefully 4.86 will make the tech chart a bit more open. I won't be holding my breath but it would make for a more fun time.

Have any of you ever wondered what admins do with all those credits they make with sanctions and such? Just a thought.

SRPs should be reopened, or all the red cells changed to white.

Either or.

That sums it up. Some kind of compromise for those red cells, more dynamic update possibilities, and a better method of display. Not sure on specifics, but I'll think on the matter.
