So,
As a pvping related thread I'd like to discuss the topics we lack of nowadays in Disco and we consistently had happening some years ago.
Pvp or RP?
This is a topic that existed for long. Are you a RP'ing person or a Pvper? Are you logging to find enemies and make trouble or are you flying relaxed with a coffee and want to exchange words in the skin of your imaginated character?
We've been pushing for long the term of "being balanced" in both of them as a RPing server. The RP part glue'ing the fact that encounters can happen "sporadically" and without a planification. Well that's long time gone. The lack of population in the server pushes people to log for planned raids or events. Finding an enemy, or even finding someone inRP is something rare to happen already. The RPing part, which is going on on the 80% of the level in Forums is quite the same but with less encounters, so the cercle is closing itself : lack of interest -> lack of people -> lack of encounters -> and again lack of interest.
Nowadays all we have inRP is people concerned of logging alone and unsecure of encountering potential enemies. The fear of logging because of the insecurity of your pvping skills leads you to stay parked at forumlancing till you get burned of that too. You can't find someone fighting, because noone wants that anyway. This is the true meaning of the RP era, a completely new thing. 90% of the pvping dedicated people left and now if you're flying and looking for a fight people is afraid of that.
We've mostly created the "fear" of a frenetic encounter with a potential enemy which basically lead to avoiding encounters/docking/hating the factions involved in the pvping aspect.
