RE: New line to Law ID - hack - 06-03-2016 Sounds like every other time someone has tried to get the lawfuls to play the way they want.... its not the ID, its the laws of the house.

Drop it or explode. 1 unit or 5000 units.aaand this is just dumb... where is place for RP in such scenario? Now that you mention it... Sure, let's make it official. Drop the contraband, or boom. c: I mean, if you've got 1 unit on your ship, you're obviously a disgusting degenerate that contributes nothing to Libertonian society, and should be deported post haste. RE: New line to Law ID - Xenon - 06-03-2016 I think they should be stopped, then they should justify and state the reasons behind holding such small amounts of a contraband Also the law enforcer character should understand that some small amounts are harmless and allowed for personal use. Just my 2 cents, and nice topic RE: New line to Law ID - Stoner_Steve - 06-03-2016 keep in mind there is nothing stopping you (in Liberty) from getting certain certificates that let you have certain items even if no one else can have them You just have to do the work RE: New line to Law ID - DarthBindo - 06-03-2016 (04-28-2016, 06:23 PM)Bloodl1ke Wrote:We don't do that already?(04-28-2016, 04:33 PM)Genexus Wrote: Cargo scan should be removed. instead just allow scan via trading monitor. This would be much more interesting. Whoops, didn't get the memo.

Like for what the F do we have those sections if people gonna just ignore them and find their own way to try helping newbies without educating themselves first? I wonder if this way you are less or more harmful than if you would just leave newbies alone.
Help is not bad in itself, but isn't sufficient either. Educated help is welcomed, appreciated, uneducated attempts may hurt more (see: anti-vaccine movements). Educate yourself before you educate others, and unnecessary threads with utter bullcrap like this won't pop up from time to time.

Newbie can ask me what sells good from Liberty to Galia for example , and with sample on my ship i can look and provide advice even when i am in Picardy and he is in New York .You are wasting your own and newbie´s time if you do such search manually instead of using FL Companion. With companion it can be done in like twenty seconds.

Either your cargo is legal and thus cops won´t bother you, or it isn´t. And when you have illegal cargo onboard, it must be confiscated by laws and if you refuse to jettison it, you are shot. Simple as that. Sure, there can RP, you can try to convince law enforcer with some hearbreaking story why this one piece of contraband is important for you. But that does not mean that law enforcer -have to- let you go just because you roleplayed. It depends on several factors, including nature of law enforcer, his experience, circumstances and such. Just like in real life, in certain bordering situations or in minor offences, there are cops which will let you go with a warning, but also cops which will give you hard time because they for some reason have no understanding for you. Thus there is nothing wrong to use any of these attitudes in roleplay. RE: New line to Law ID - Karst - 06-03-2016 Instead of suggesting this a rule change, why not try to lobby the governments inRP to take a more lenient stance on contraband commodities? You're trying to find an ooRP solution to an inRP issue which is the wrong approach to take. Who knows, maybe you'll find some support for the idea.

And that is my problem with previous Jayce statement - instead RP opportunities we have "drop or die" what sound to me like an another poor excuse for blue-message.

Does this look like real life to you? All I see is people who play in Liberty that can't be bothered doing roleplay (or can't do it well enough) to get a special permit. |
