As the Thread owner i have the right to say the following:
jop & Laowai, you missed my point
I'm not saying that having a trader ID and Police TAG is ooRP. <thus i agree with Laowai & jpo
But i can't hide how angry i am that you twisted my words. You pulled my arguments out of context
and made irrelevant statements that some other reader may see as contradicting.
so without further waste of time ill try to make my points clear.
1) He had a Gen-Trader ID with trader ship and was registered at the local police. It's OK!
2) He traded in liberty, in front of admins and wasn't sanctioned. It's OK!
3) He is a total mega-noob and thinks that you have to kill police to get rid of their tag but it's OK!
BUT:
1) He traded military stuff between Liberty and Rheinland. But how???
2) He flew what is considered contraband from Liberty to Rheinland and vice-verse WITH A TRADER ID
and completely ignored that trading contraband is considered a crime known as smuggling and thus he should have had a Smuggler ID and some other TAG. Only smugglers in RP are considered able to dock Jumpgates and tradelanes without their contraband being noticed by the local forces. If he traded this with his Police license he would have been arrested and his license taken away from him. Otherwise its ooRP
+ he thinks he can go anywhere with any trader ship under any tag as long as he has the Trader ID.
+ he doesn't care about any local policies.
+ he thinks Dresen is not in Rheinland
Im not saying he should be sanctioned thou. I say we should "waste our energy" on helping them understand the concept of a RP server. If we stay ignorant or submissive as Laowai and Magoo! suggest then all we'll have is a new wave of PvPwhores "who will ditch us in two weeks".
I say we teach them, guide them. I agree with the admins that "sanction should be our last resort" but it also requires us to put some effort into making our server more suitable for RP.
