Question: IDs and ships

[Drake]

Out of curiosity, what's the point of the Recruit ID if you can't buy a faction's ships while using one (due to a FLhook thingy, I assume)?

For that matter, how are people supposed to rep themselves to buy a faction's ID when the faction's ships can only be bought while using that ID?

Note that this is in regard to factionalized fighters, not capital ships.

I don't know, I've used the Recruit ID for the purposes you mentioned. Have I been doing it wrong?

The recruit ID was a mistake built during a time when we didn't have the tools we enjoy today.

I'm advocating for it to be removed and a far simpler repping system put in place which will remove the need to grind missions.

At the moment it has no positive use or purpose.

Indeed it will save us recruit ided sabres with Navy Iff and Corsair/Outcast gun mixture. I hope that the same id restrictions could be added to the guns but it will be a hell of a work for devs.
Now you can buy faction MK1 ships in it. But if it is a new char I tend to make missions/bribes in CSV with restart command.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)

I've always said, why am I spending hours repgrinding for guard ID when I should be out trying to be useful with RP and stuff.
