Quote:You're forgetting that ships are balanced to their enemies, not all of Sirius. Arbeiters are balanced to fight other Rheinland ships. They are not balanced to fight Bretonian ships.
That's why Arbeiters aren't used in Bretonia. Hell, they aren't even used.
Quote:There are no members using their Molly ships.
I can give you a number of people using their Molly ships even the name of the ships.
Quote:Maybe you should remind him.
Indeed I will.
Quote:Yes, we know, the Odins are far more popular with the memberbase of your faction.
Yes, because Werewolf is a big target in group battles and we tend to get in a lot of those.
Quote:Now if only some of your membership would actually fly them.. Oh wait, Scyllas, yes, those ones are used. Could we see some of the others occasionally as well?
We -do- use them. Not my fault you are not there to see it.
Quote:The issue here is not in that you share tec, but in the scope of your tech sharing and the utter absence of using your own. You have over a dozen ships from other factions, those being Sabres, Odins, Arbeiters, and LH GSs. These are all placed in shared accounts anyone can use. So, of course, that's all everyone ever uses. It's quite obviously for pvp reasons, most of those tech deals were brokered on Skype, not the forums, and in an OORP context, not an RP context.
Lane Hacker and Hessian stuff were RP'd not so long ago. Odins were the first ones to be RP'd when [M] were unofficial. Lane Hacker stuff were received from the Hellfire Legion. We got Unioner and LWB things from old [MR] permits as AGS were kind enough to switch the permitions to the current Molly faction.
Quote:If those ships were removed from shared accouts and used sparingly, like the SCRA did with their Odins after they received wide-spread criticism for doing much the same as what you are, then there wouldn't be an issue. Because they'd be seen occasionally, instead of constituting the bulk of your forces in every single encounter.
SCRA is not [M]. They're a separate faction that works differently and we do not wish to imitate every action of theirs.
Quote:As it is, we see more Hessians flying with Molly IDs, than we see Mollys. And that is not how the Molly Official Faction should be behaving.
I am wondering, how can 4 Odins can make us look like Hessians? Have you seen all 4 of them online at a time? As for the latter, you're not going to tell us how we should behave.
