' Wrote:Yeah I read it, but then I also read that the slave-commodity would also through this "majority" reasoning be removed from a Prison Station. Which effectively has an impact on -all- players.
It was discussed within the LPI faction. The request has been made. Discussion is good, have a reason and state it.
Let the Developers decide.

Fact is.. 1 indie LPI would not be able to organize and sell slaves on the prison station... which is the core argument here.
If we the LPI (official faction) wish for the LPI RP to move towards eliminating corruption, then we would certainly not want every ship to fly by, see "slaves" being sold.
On that note.. no non LPI ship should ever dock on a prison station. (maybe huntsville and sugarland should be changed to guard stations?)

Yeah, I will let the Developers decide, because they will regardless. xD
But that dosen't mean I can't voice my opinion, and here I will say it again just for your viewing pleasure:
You are making a decision with the back-up from a certain group that affects the RP of everyone.
In other words, what gives you the right?

Theres a reason Igiss was asking leaders of Official factions what direction they'd like their factions to go, and not indies. That said.. any LPI indie who wants to speak up and voice concerns are welcomed to. You as far as i know Zeltak are not LPI.

I may not be a LPI faction member nor using a LPI character, dosen't mean that the potential Roleplay that exist in said faction has no effect on my characters.
I'm saying that, it's one thing if you want to remove the whole "I'm not a corrupt fella." through your Faction Role-Play. So go make a story, if you have already, good for you, there, no more corrupt LPI faction. But you have to remove in-game stuff which affects others as well?
This commodity has a significant value on how the LPI are perceived by other groups.

You are making this personal.
Me the right? I did not make this decision alone. I am not the faction leader, it was discussed within the faction. I was the one who did the typing.
Voice your opinion, sure go ahead
And to whom do you refer to as a certain group? Vague accusation there.

Damn right I'm making this personal.
I was referring to the group you were referring to.
Let me quote you:

I was going to post a long review of the proud tradition involved with curb stomping lore to fit into an ideal vision.
The trend of adjusting an entire faction rather than operating as a group apart.
The idea of the Untouchables becomes the idea of Chicago's police force removing all corruption. Hurrah.
I was going to challenge the claim of removing corruption in an organization which is, by its very nature, corrupt. Catch and release policies. Rounding up vagrants to serve in prison factories. A for profit judicial system which rewards policies which places the undesirable classes of Liberty into a position where they -will- be coming back for shift after shift after shift of making toy dolls for little Kusari turds.
I guess these have all been cleaned up. It's a new future. A sterile future where things are excellent. I suppose I should inform Tanker that he can shut down the XA, Liberty's crime has been reduced to a few vagrant Rogues and Hackers floating about California. The factories are paying a fair days' wage for a fair day's work and we're entering a new golden age where the common man wants for nothing, the cop on the corner hasn't a care beyond his cup of coffee and helping a little girl find her way and, maybe, smiling at a rainbow.
So in a post, because the official faction declared it, the entire nature of a centuries old organization has changed in a blink. Not changed through any measure of realism or effort, but with the writing of a new reality on a wiki page.
But not entirely.
Just mostly.
Here's the new LPI challenge: Don't be boring.
That being said, yeah, it's silly to sell slaves on Sugarland. They should be sold on Houston.

So our RP gets impacted because someone else doesn't like it?

Listen pal. You can have your specific Faction RP. That's all fine with me.
But you can't just change stuff that's in-game because your Faction perceives the whole goddamn LPI NPC group as not-being corrupt. Because essentially that's what you are doing with removing this valuable piece of commodity, and frankly I don't agree.

Sorry, shall I rephrase the word "You" to "The specific group that discussed this idea and you who represented them by creating this thread?" That's more comfortable for you?
