Greetings citizens of discovery. I know that you are all tired of all the OORP-ness that has been going on. PVP whores run rampant, and there is no way to stop them!
...or is there?
I have come up with the perfect solution to everything! All we need to do is open up a jump hole to Connecticut from every major, populated system!
Now, I know you're saying "but Silver! This will result in a collapse of everything Discovery stands for! Traders will make huge amounts of money in minutes! Everyone will invade everyone elses systems! STARS WILL GO SUPERNOVA! ARE YOU MAD?!?!"
But, my dear friend, that is the beauty of the plan.
For all the OORP pirates, traders, PVP and cap whores will all be in Connecticut, blowing each other to bits. Then, the role-playing, rule following bit of the server can quietly move a couple of systems over, and have fun without the interruption and annoyance of all the OORP people. And everyone lives happily ever after.

Anyways, this might work if we completely turned it into a PvP/RP server. Most people know that they should RP, they just choose not to because its silly or some such to them.
But the Raven, sitting lonely on that placid bust, spoke only
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered; not a feather then he fluttered--
Till I scarcely more than muttered, "Other friends have flown before--
On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before."
<blockquote>Then the bird said, "Nevermore."</blockquote>

By das Gottkanzler, I can imagine going into that system. Battleships will be pounding traders, going, "lol u r noob. I m big. i pwnzor u." and traders will be going, "noez! Teh btlshipz! i will get teh btlshipzor n pwn u. i sanction u for capwhoring."
Since this is about to be thrown in Flood, methinks, everyone read my stories! And while you're at it, join the BLS and LPI!:)Click all the link in my sig, I swear it's better than when people tell you to pull their finger.
The nomad collective has devised the most cost effective solution extension to the plan: wait until the system becomes full and then destroy all jumpgates/jumpholes leading into, turn off pvp and cover system with impenetrable but invisible box shell, effectively capturing ooRPness in single system! And then rename system to ooRPland, and sell tickets to starfliers outside of manhattan to come and see it from outside of box shell. Profit too!
