Some peoples just love administrating of some things, why it wrong? Dont understand so much hate to PoBs if they used not for abusing or trolling peoples.
Yep, they should have some more interestings system of administrating, but even now they allow make some business/manufacturing/trade and enhance ooRP gameplay and ongoing inRP stuff.
But, Paddy really choose dangerous place for PoB. inRP all clear and right. I hope, she will return and enhance her RP. Because even fails still RP things, and can help start another interesting storyes. Just, maybe for example creating of flying inn, like Sand?
It also doesn't help that the player was a newbie who was told repeatedly that they are making huge mistakes by building these bases in the middle of mining fields. That it is a taboo thing to do in our community and will cause player backlash. They chose to ignore it, apparently, on principle, stating that ''if it wasn't written in the server rules, it shouldn't be like that''. Yes, dropping a solaris dread on a snub duel is also not against the server rules, but if someone, especially countless people on the forums who are just trying to help tell you that you are wrong and shouldn't do it, then it is simply darvinism at that point.
The player chose to go against advice on principle. They got upset and left.
Good riddance.
Sounds like my ex.
I am all for being lenient to new players and help them, but if they refuse to listen because of some sort of innate sense of twisted justice and deliberately ignore any help, then they are beyond help and should not be wasted time on. Stop worrying about Paddy and go help the other newbies in Penny instead.
Ha ha, I am alone. :<

One just wants to mine Gold Ore and chill in a fun space game, saving up for a shiny warship to pew in.
The other wants to use their shiny warship to pew now. There may be some dressing about "RP", but it comes down to that skull icon by the server on the list saying players can damage other players.
Spazzy's harsh but absolute truth should be taken as good guideline. People love to do their own thing that goes against established procedures only to get angry over consequences stemming out if it.
People should indeed stop obsessing over other business and conduct their own. Disco would be so much better without all this ooRP drama that some people are attempting to create. It drags our community further down. Just play the game as it is supposed to be played.
I'm the guy responsible for all this 'drama'. I'm very sad to see the girl left the game and I really hope she's coming back someday. I had no idea she was so temperate and take the base sieges so seriously. My goal was (and still is) to make the life of PoBs more interesting. I had a lot of PoBs in the past and I still have one, they are fun, they are profitable but you must take good care of them and the beginning is always rough.
I'm sad she felt harassed, that was not my intention at all. The last base she had reached core 2 with shield of course and I felt proud for her having learnt and adapted. Paddy I really really hope you're coming back. If not, still have fun out there IRL

Temperate means showing self-restraint or moderation. You mean temperamental. She is a lot more temperate than temperamental. And with a clear and determined purpose for what she does.
Paddy was frustrated and discouraged by events enough to leave. It didn't matter so much that she had bases blown up. She wasn't in it for the credits to be made. She was into the RP in a big way.
In the end after having the base, shield and all, destroyed by the BPA due to her not being aware of the attack declaration (no fault on BPA btw), not having time due to RL to RP the bases to the extent she wanted, and then coming home to find a no-RP at all destruction of the base took its toll. The trolling and metagaming where you, Kosa, bragged in-game about how many times you had destroyed her base (3) did the trick.
She got fed up, yes, and I would suggest her decision to go as quickly and quietly as possible was to avoid a flame-fest in forums. Which I would suggest tells more about her character and sportsmanship, to avoid unnecessary negativity and toxicity.
So, let us honour her intent and stop the slagging, criticism and negativity and move on.
Forum Admin, possible to close this thread?

^ Agred here , she build bases to be object of RP and she was (more or less) fine with pob be destroyed in properly done siedges ,but last pob destroyed so quickly , while was she sleep , so to speak , hurt her so much that she left .
Yea I'm not here to argue with you guys. You have your opinion and I respect that. I have mine. If everyone else agrees I believe the question has been answered properly and the thread could be closed.
funny it sure looked as if, under the guise of RP, paddy's bases were singled out and destroyed. looked very oorp . or maybe paddy was not part of the "in" crowd ... My own dreams of a liitle pob off in the far yonder, trading and such are crushed with the passing of paddy and all that stuff.. Frankly it played out like a personal vendetta of sorts.
