Nerf the Freelancer ID and Re-Introduce New Generic IDs

[Hannibal]

time for a proper post(not on mobile at work..)

- Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect an friendly or allied ship.
FL ID diplomancy is not clearly defined. An individual has freedom to choose their diplomacy dynamically on the fly. What this means is you essentially have an ID that as per ID rules can engage into ANY fight ANYWHERE. They don't even require a bounty. As long as the individual has good rep towards those he/she wants to assist, they can hop straight into the fight. It's even worse when abused by groups, as you end up having entire factions set up around this one line where they can shoot whatever they want anywhere.

its not that easy to change your rep,its something you have to nurture from the moment you mounted the ID,every npc you shoot,every bribe you take,every...you get the point..

actually i think its the only line i don't like from this id as it allows a lot of unfortunate scenarios ..it would be better if the only one you could assist will be of those of which IFF you have and/or your tag/player faction

FL ID can self-define it's own enemies via bounty boards (which it is unrestricted from signing up to, unlike the BHG ID).

restricted to your repuation..as in you cant sign up to more than 3-5 boards,which is a lot less than BHG can

n most cases it can then hunt these enemies ANYWHERE

nope..a bounty board owner can not post bounties in zone of which have no interest into (as in..its a restricted rp server,keep that in mind)

If the user or group of the ID decides to roll as an unlawful, it's basically an open terrorist ID.

is that how you will describe BHG as well??a terrorist group who goes after unlawfuls?

you my dear have a misconception of what a terrorist actually is,ie..not an unlawful

Freelancers have access to a ridiculously large amount of faction tech.

they have no limitation of what defines their characters and how or why they fly what they do
after all..its a freelancer what the hell do you want them to fly...capsules?

FL ID'd GRN Gunboat

does make sense for someone from gallia to get their hands of one,if said person abuse it admins can step in,after all...its their job to do so..not yours!

No wonder why the ID is so underused, and BHG activity is at an all-time low.

it has nothing to do with ships or id,but because they have nothing to hunt,a bhg id-ed based faction depends on others to generate activity in order for them to log on

ie:if you put atleast 10% of effort into generating some activity for them then writing this post we wouldn't had to read it

In conclusion,

the ID itself is hugely abusable for PvP

first line can be adjusted ,see above

You are not restricted by rephacks

why would it be?he's actions or lack of should make an impact to his diplomacy or lack of..

affiliation and it also even has a very kind cargo limit via the Pirate train.

if you wanna get shoot and loose your cargo and get slapped with an FR5
