Hello guys. Just a quick question because I am kind of confused.
No offense intended by the way.
So tell me, where is the "Research" part of your faction now? All I see you guys is doing NPC missions and barking at other factions like some militants. It simply feels like you abandoned the very thing that made you special and became a military force for the Outcasts.
We've been quite occupied with MR and CR lately. Though, there's more stuff, just being prepared, not everything gets a bombastic banner two weeks before =)
And the NPC missions are to fund our next projects x)
I think, that there is actually another problem with R&D factions on Disco - in game limitations. There is literally next to nothing you can do, as fully research and development factions, therefore they mostly exist as sub-factions. You should probably really just go into OC Intelligence agency or army and keep this research part as a mere sub-brunch, as it will clearly only benefit you in both short-and long-term perspectives.
Game limitations don't hinder RP as long as it follows the rules and people want to abide to it. As such, we can't force people into our RP, but we can give them more stuff to use. As the IRMM has created personal weapons for use for example.
Then, the IRMM is primarily a research institute that is using its secrecy to gather intel on other factions to improve Maltese-made weaponry for use against them. Being a R&D as the first thing means that we're actively upgrading and making OC tech more advanced. Like for example, some people still believe that human crew are operating turrets on battleships, this is nonsense 800 years after settlement if we're capable of constructing Dreadnoughts. The IRMM itself is using robots to maintain its capital assets and only few Maltese are aboard. We've also documented a lot of technology and added more detail to it.
The way IRMM was made allows it to stay as an Institute that has Scientific RP on Forum and Intel&Military assets flying ingame. This way we have the best of both worlds while having access to vast resources and capabilities of Omicron Phi. Then again, what we do ingame reflects our Intel&Military divisions as this is primarily a Shooter game.
Basically, Intel commands Military and both bring reports back to Scientific division which in turn upgrades the tech in use.

Well, what can I say about this group. All the battles that are with this group, they always outnumbered. One word, Gank. RP, and all the technology is taken from the ceiling. As a man of science, I can say that your engines and generators will not work.
At the same time, Outcasts never differed in technology, but here you have surpassed even the states in technology. Where did the lagging behind in development have such high technology? You do not have so many resources, and the minds to even come up with this, not what to produce.
And again, back to the first.
If you guys do not change your attitude to the battles and do not stop constantly trying to outstrip and poison not funny jokes about others in the RP, then I will try to have nothing to do with you at all. At least our whole group is not happy with your ganks.
And so yes, good luck not to become OF.
In my opinion, you are not worth it because of your RP and behavior.
I wish you health and many years to come.
Thank you for your attention, if you pay it at all.
Kudos for letting me go and giving an opportunity to duel this bc, so nothing that bad, as has been described above. Though probably it's the matter of not only one interaction, but the series of them. On other hand, you could give us an opportunity to retreat and gather more or less fair forces, as we have been fighting this Liberty dread and another OC BC, so we partially were left without regens. It would totally give you some points for granting you an officialdom, but sadly this didn't happen.
I guess, that official factions are more or less obligated to keep the game fair, but ganks happen everywhere and I can hardly blame you on this. I have been ganked and I took part in ganks and I'm not proud of the last.
You still have some time before team will make a decision on your officialdom, so I sincerely suggest you to at least try to make fights more or less balanced. The playerbase of Enclave is very limited and sadly we can't just find the pack of battlecruisers out of nowhere.
Hope we will have more better encounters in the future.
MNS-Alcazar was ganked in Tau-23 when we were in Britanny but managed to kill a GB.

OC BC has been killed so fast, because we have seen, that you are getting numbers. We tried to kill him and then regroup, but sadly were interrupted by this silently engaging LSF carrier.
EDIT: Tho, again, it might be the matter of not only one encounter, this one might be the "final nail".

Are you kidding me?
Honestly, teach your players how to do RP , if I had any fun doing Reporters I think your faction would be dead in a day, I'm hoping there'll be an improvement in the RP of your membership. otherwise this could end badly for all of you.
don't take this as a threat, but rather as advice.
this remark applies with all the interaction I've had with the IRMM
