Maybe if you re-define what a "lolwut" is and perhaps look inwards, you can find a solution? I mean you said yourself that you haven't been able to roleplay with people except for two occasions. Are you sure it's the other 100 people logging that is the problem, really?
OORP grudges give short-term life to the people carrying out the grudges, but in the long run they kill the activity of the server when people get fed up with the BS.
Yes, it is. If people here would give people they meet an opportunity to roleplay, maybe they'd see a bit more roleplay, but they're too busy pasting messages as soon as they enter scanner range so they can open fire as soon as they're within firing range. Then they go on the forums and complain about how the people they're killing on sight "aren't stopping to roleplay with them".

You have been pushing the envelope and for the past 1-2 years people have tried to helpfully point out a few of the issues with the faction, but nothing is taken to heart. It's still superhaulers, katanas, cruisers, battleships, pob's jumping barges etc. - there's been some extreme (and sly!) power-play going on, and rather than take in any of the friendly suggestions and warnings you've just carried on. Karma is a female doge, I guess.
Helpfully point out issues with the faction? Yeah, right, you've been poking like lolwuts trying to get us as nerfed as possible, with your logic being that "Junkers don't have any enemies". Right, we have no enemies? Sure thing, that's why my average life expectancy on congress tagged ships is about 20 minutes. You can't talk about how we don't have any enemies, and how we don't need any combat tech, when we're being shot on sight by pretty much every faction in the game, including factions which, according to the server and faction rules, aren't even allowed to claim the bounty (but do so anyway).
Katana? What the hell are you even talking about?
Superhaulers? Most of use use salvagers (3.3k) and Wreckers (1.1k). We aren't even ALLOWED to use superhaulers like 5k trains, etc.
Cruisers? We don't even have any. We SRP'd one recently, and I haven't seen it used yet.
Battleships? We only have one, it's SRP'd. We take it out for events, but I don't see it very often. I've never even seen it fire a shot in the dozen times I've seen it in the last 2 years.
If you really want to complain about a couple of SRP'd caps which we rarely use, maybe you should take a look at the thousands of capitals we've come into contact with.
