A Discovery without Capital Ships - Thexare - 07-07-2009
I think they never should've been added in the first place. It has nothing to do with the players, but rather the fact that the game simply wasn't made for a capital ship and thus can't handle them with what feels like even a remote degree of realism.
But since they're here, meh.

I believe I speak for GMG when I say:
HELL NO!
Our purpose in life is to <strike>mine gas</strike> destroy capital ships in the nebula with our <strike>Tie dies</strike> Kaichous.

I voted no. I love RPing in my caps too much. I also prefer cap ship combat to fighter combat.
Also, like others said, it's the people who fly the caps which are the problem, not the caps themselves.

Even if the only problem was the players who fly them, you can't simply ban all of them because they will always be there and anyone who flies one the correct way can decides he wants to have fun only "one time" and go on a rampage or whatsoever.

I have alot more fun RPing a crew more then a single craft fighter. Can be more creative in a way also. Be it Transports or Capitals. I think quite a bit of people here feel the same way too. Like em for RP more then PvP.
Voted No Remove Nothing.

It's just like money.
It not that it is there, its how you use it that makes it/them bad.
It's the people behind the money/cap ships.

I don't think we have the right to punish those people who put hard effort into their roleplay for the actions of those people who act with little regard to the community. Remember, anyone can be a jackass in anything from a Light Fighter to a Battleship, the only difference is capital ships stick out more (But they are easier to kill >_>)

Removing caps takes a massive chunk of roleplay out.
and... When in a battle its nice to see the ememy's BS light up.!
Plus I love RPing caps.

I voted against removing caps.
1# They provide excellent rp
2#The problem is the players, not the caps
3# I live in australia, and have a funny connection. This causes me to constantly epic fail at dogfighting (So I would like to fly a cap at some point, but as part of a faction, not an indie) (If there are any factions willing to take me on as an eventual cap pilot, please contact me)
4# The only thing more awesome to watch than a pair of capships in any sci-fi movie, series or game pounding the living daylights out of each other, is an entire fleet of such.
5# Bombers would become purely piratical ships, as they are mostly only useful for killing things that cannot dodge out of the way, and taking out the caps would mean only transports are bomber targets. Then you would have the problem of an entire ship class only used by pirates
6# Picard!
