I was reading through these posts in this thread and it is somewhat depressing. The rules are clear on ID's no amendments are needed. I created a new char the other day, gave that char 1 million credits via transfer, went out bought a nuetral ID. Then transferred 80 million credits to that char, adjusted my rep so I could get on the base to buy my ship, then proceeded to finish my rep adjustment. I then purchased my final ID after I was able, getting my rep straightened out and proceeded to interact on the server with other players. Total time invovled was about 3-4 hours. This whole issue is a matter of a maturity level, and it is not always related to an age level. Some things take time, we cant always have what we want right away. The rules have been in place for awhile now, before playing on this server most of us have read them and agreed to play by them as a condition, for the privilage of playing on this server. What Nightfall and the other admins do, I appreciate whole-heartedly, and there actions to keep thing level for all players on the server I also endorse fully. If I was caught breaking the rules I would expect nothing less than a admin to take some corrective action whether it be a simple warning or something else. Some people enjoy "pushing the envelope" which makes things harder for all. If this post sounds like it was from your parents, for you younger players, it could have been I suppose, I am 44 and a grandfather of 3.

Doncha hate those "Grandbaby on board" decals?
"Here, daughter, take the smelly thing."
Kudos, Rogue. Well said.
Majkp, I really like the Idea of having an construction ID. Your wording makes it good but it would be void after 24 hours of REAL LIFE TIME. This i to prevent people from using it against the rules and other things like that. Other restrictions would have to be in place as well...
' Wrote:Nightfall, HF is allowed Liberty capships because of our RP. We've had this for about... 11 months now, and it's been challenged before. HF was former Lib Navy, but betrayed, and escaped with a few ships. Also, haven't you read mine and Zepphos' RP? We paid for 2 Carriers and a Liberty Dread.
Nightfall, did you consider the fact that he was shooting Liberty Navy to get his reputation? A Double-LH bribe will not get you a tag, you have to shoot at Liberty for quite a while, and/or do missions.
I think most people's problems with it, is that before you used Lane Hacker, Outcast, and FEW Liberty ships. Now HF is almost exclusively Liberty ships, and even I am starting to think things differently. Using Liberty ships is fine and all. But you only get what you can salvage and steal from Liberty. You don't construct it yourselves. Use 75% Outcast/LH ships and 25% Liberty, and your good. Not 95% Liberty, 5% Rheinland Bombers. This is what people, and myself, are having a problem with. When was the last time you had a LANE HACKER Spyglass? Your very own battleship FFS. You don't use it at all, and its actually a quite nice ship. Heck, the Zoner Juggernaut can go virtually nowhere because of its inability to travel through asteroid fields. But AW still uses it. We have THREE. Three Zoner Juggernauts that can barely do more than sit and shoot, and must stay in and near Theta and Alpha. You have a Spyglass that CAN travel through Asteroid Fields and packs a decent punch. Heck, QV alone has more Spylgasses than your whole faction.. He has 1. Cut down on the Liberty Ships, or people aren't going to take the faction seriously.
@Rogue; That is exactly the process I use, and advertise. Prevents you from being banned/fined/warned and takes a whole 20 minutes away from you. If that. Not quite sure why others don't take 20 minutes out of the NPC-killing time to grab a Neut ID, or Mercenary. Is the need to slaughter computer-controlled ships that high?
Dab, don't you think I've thought about this? I have 1 Liberty Ship of all my HF chars. 1 Liberty Cruiser. I believe that there are very few Liberty ships in our arsenal. I also, have the only Rheinland Bomber in HF. And we made an RP about it, remember?
Tank had a Spyglass, but *gasp* he deleted it, along with 2.5 billion credits in other characters. My trader needs a rep fix, it's red with almost everyone, and I was willing to pay for the admins to fix it, but NO!!!!! You guys said I was just too damn lazy. It can dock at about 5% of all bases. That's the reason I don't have a Spyglass. If I can ever get my trader fixed, then I'm going to buy either a Spyglass, or an Outcast Dred. YOU HAPPY?
I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.

One thing to be warry abou the Spyglass is ther fact that it will get disrupted 90% of the time it gets hit by a Wasp disruptor and CD's don't help it much either.
Other then that, ia gree with Dab on those aspects of the HF fleet, but I really don't feel like getting into that.
I have no Liberty GB. I have a Rogue GB. You have no right to criticize my faction for things that have nothing to do with you. And Verg, you put Dab's quote in your sig? Come on, man. Why don't you check out my thread when it's done.

I believe they DO have to do with me.. Considering AW and HF's status towards each other, HF status towards AW's friendly status with others, and the fact that your using the ships of our twice-now enemies..
Why don't you check the percentages. A bit off, don't you say?
