sure he's right. I would also be right against someone all the time if i twisted his/her words all the time.
' Wrote:You can't sanction someone for RP created by players in the game itself. Rheinland police NPCs, after scanning you, do not consider any of those goods contraband either. As a result, you can't threaten a player with sanctions for doing something that is done via the RP of other players on Discovery. Those trade goods that you said were contraband are not contraband through the game's RP itself. The person has no possibility of finding out unless he digs through over 20-30 pages of RP.
I had no idea. That means diamond niobium run is perfectly valid for any traders RP because he discovered the JH to chugoku and is using it as shortcut. (it is a players freedom to avoid forum topics bout NovaPG right?)
and another thing... someone has to be wrong/right in this situation so you teach me diablo.... which one of the following parties is ooRP:
1) the traders OFFICIALLY TRADING what LP player faction considers contraband in Liberty.
or
2) The LP player faction for not behaving like the NPC models you present us as "the only valid" for setting contradicting Liberty laws.
there is no middle ground. Otherwise traders would report any LP bomberwhore asking them to drop their cargo.
' Wrote:As a result, while you can encourage him to RP that way, you cannot say that he is going to get sanctioned.
And yes, implying that someone is going to be sanctioned is the same time as actually saying, "I'm going to report you."
Well if that the case then ill admit I used the wrong approach. I had no idea that warning someone 'bout faction policies and how admins react would sound like a threat since i expressed 2 times how i want to help him avoid it (it = sanction)
And as i stated so many times i DON'T WANT HIM SANCTIONED and my cry for your assistance to raise the consciousness level of RP is being twisted into rules lawyering.
Admit it. You all have Police tagged trader ships runing similar rutes with no RP whatsoever and now youre ganging on me in this thread to kill the idea of quality RP enforcement. You can also admit that you consider trading not eligible to RP but use it for powertrading to buy yourself a nice 60 mil bomber or 600 mil cruiser.
This thread was not intended to bash the poor noob but to ask for assistance of the community to help me teach them how to rolplay quality-wise.
' Wrote:Secondly, even though you did block out the person's name, did you actually inform them that this private conversation was going to be displayed on the forums?
As far as you're concerned he is a generic powertrader. For all you care he might have never existed.
As long as he doesn't reveal himself in this thread he is safe from any forum lynching.
If he chooses to reveal himself he automatically agrees that those were his words and that he is fine with everyone knowing that he said that.
' Wrote:Other than that, I don't see anything afoul here. A formal apology to that player is probably the best thing you can do right now, Balthazzar.
Why? Give me a good reason but make it quick. This thread was intended as a "call for assistance"
-not for forum lynching
-not for disagreements (if you disagree then simply don't help me, but i think its kinda low to bash anyone for trying to make powertraders more conscious.)
