Random suggestion: What if we scrapped the indie Nomad ID, and swapped it with an indie Wild ID (same Zoi lines etc.)? The RP would be easier to grasp and players could be given a better selection of ships I guess.
Was suggested before, idea was shot down due to how big the selection would be, ZOI and a bunch of other problems, this has been brought up already.
As far as it goes, some people want to just fly the nomad caps, I can't blame them I guess, but their restricted and most likely will stay that way. Those nomads that normally want to RP are a rather rarity server side anymore. The main thing I can imagine them not logging for is the lack of equipment, ZOI, allies and just how the ships work. Its the same for most indy ID's in a way, look at SCRA. People won't fly their faction because of restrictions and how bad the ships are (As of right now), same thing for other factions.
The one major bummer I can see for indy nomad players is RP. I won't lie, the lolwuts server side are rather bad these days, and won't think twice before silent engaging a red they see on their scanners without a moment's notice. That just outright kills RP, Core has done it to indy nomads as well, same as Order, Corsairs and others. I'd imagine if it was possible for them to RP, more people would get in on it in a heart beat...but their nomads, Omicrons are dangerous and kill all nomads, that's normally how the table turns and repeats
