Couldn't agree more. The irony is, though, that most experienced members are indeed like that, and they rarely submit a report, for example. Instead, those same "lolwhuts" (god I hate the term, but it conveys the message better than others) are rule lawyers. I've never had an experienced player yell at me about something, whereas I had tons of new players yell at me repeatadly "that is against the rules, I report". Of course, they soon found out they had no reason to report, but hey...

If this is any part of your suggestion then, no. Official factions have no right to control cap ship usage. We are not more entitled than indy players.
' Wrote:The official factions, has for YEARS asked to be given controll. Liberty Navy, Outcasts, Corsairs, Order and lately Bretonian Armed Forces has had/have huge issues with their capitals. For some its simply unbearable to whatch these caps do as they want.
Do not agree, this is not the way to handle it. Here in this quote we see the biased opinions again. Why is the Rheinland Military not in there? Probably cause you are in the military. I don't like this. And if there is capspam, just get your bombers, problem solved. Stop Q_Qing about something that is easily fixed. And besides, what if (in a raid) only one side would bring caps, and the rest would bring snubs. Then the caps would be annihilated. You can only complain about the capspam if there are caps on your side being ganked by Caps of the other side. So just get more bombers, problem solved. Why do you think they are there in the first place.

Saying "grab bombers and deal with it" it's just plainly dumb. It's like saying "My car is leaking fuel. No problem, just keep re-filling it when it's empty 8-|".
Now, again, this is a problem, but the solution ain't in the OP, imo. No reason to stop looking tho;)
Personally, I think this is a good idea. Whether or not it's actually implemented is another thing.
That said, I think very few people would disagree when I say that it's a good thing to stop the "no enlish (((" people from obtaining Large Ships. Will we probably drive some of them off? Yes. Is that really such a bad thing? I'll leave that up to you.
Obviously, as some have said, there will be bias. That is fact. No matter what we do, it will be there. But should we kill off an idea just because of a POSSIBILITY? Nah. It's like banning Vaccines because there's a POSSIBILITY that it'll kill someone. It's down-right silly.
If anything, we should at least give this a try via a test period of some sort.
I wish I'd understand all of you people and your problems with capital ships. Because, honestly, I have more issues with silly fighters and bombers, they are more common and are more prone to travelling in packs. If Capital ships wouldn't exist, you guys would attempt to restrict traders so powertraders would be forced to roleplay. Hmm, maybe I am being rude...
