Why I don't like Faction Tags

[Dab]

I agree completely with Onca. The reason NONE of my characters have any tags is because I spend all my trading time RP-trading where I gain very little money for transporting Deuterium for the Zoners. I'm making very little cash RPing that I cannot, in your terms, RP. So now people have to resort to NY-FP11 routes just to be able to buy their RPing tags and ships, as doing ANY RP in their trader will make it impossible. I have to buy IDs for almost all of my ships still, and thats going to take forever becauseI'm RP-trading, but I'm gonna do it anyway. But this means that I will not be able to get faction tags until the next version offers a trade route I can do with my RP. Yet if I asked to join this Outcast "clique" they would say, "No, get a tag and RP for it." Thats about the time I would get pissed at them, as I had RPd for every scrap of money I had gotten. So I had RPd more than even they had to get where I was, but they would still say I wasn't RPing enough to get in. I think Faction tags should not cost over 10 million credits, and I've always thought that. Its simply too much money if your going to get them for all your characters. I had 13 characters, I would like to be able to get IDs AND Tags on them in decent time, but even with the NY-FP11 route it would take forever. 315 million for 13 characters. 315. I don't have that kind of money, nor the means or time to get it. The small amount of time each week I get to play on the server I'd like to spend PLAYING on the server, not getting on for a month doing non-stop trading.
