The issue isn't about fighters here - You can't walk into the middle of new york and pwn everyone around you in a fighter - whereas you can with a capship. That is why things which are meant to be RPed (carriers, Bships, capships in general) need to be cut down on. I have seen many people who have not much RP sense (myself included, but I don't think i'm that bad) who utter smilies and "lols" whilst in their capships. This is a BAD thing, and sets a bad example for the new players on the server.
