And to claim that the most newbie friendly faction on the server is harming and demotivating, or making people quit the game is absolutely hysterical. One look at the OF checks or relevant data will tell you that or even player count and faction activity. I mean the data is visible for people to see.
DTR, a faction that's been raising player activity, drops 10 ships on a lone BS it's not driving that player away.
Quote:As stated multiple times, we are more than happy to accommodate and host an equal numbers event like we've done with our other enemies. We can even attach RP or actual consequences to it. I don't know how much more sportsmanship one can get than that. But if we are being real honest, it's likely that we'll lose as you can get some vets on your side and whip us because we probably have maybe 3 players in DTR who are competent in PvP on an equal footing. And guess what, I am fine with that.
'We will use all our force unless it is a planned event between factions. Not pulling back caps even if it is a snub brawl. This is the only solution I got for you if you want to play it numerically fair.'
You keep saying you have lost every planned event and will lose in the future because of the difference in skill but you are fine with it. Why don't you face the opponent on equal footing? No-one is asking you not to keep the numerical advantage considering the skill difference. What people are saying is not to use caps in snub brawls. How will your players learn snub combat if the fights are not balanced skill-wise? You have the clear advantage numerically all the time. If you wanted to, you could just ask your caps to stand down and throw 10 snubs on 5 enemies to keep it balanced and challenging for both sides.
