Faction feedbacks are difficult at best, because the only real time someone posts something substantial other than "you guys are great" are when you have a complaint, genuine or not. It's libel to raise the dander of those in command of said faction when their RP is attacked. I'm sure it's that way for you, it's the same for us. It's also not right.
The SCRA has started to open diplomatic ties to the Mollies in their effort to win freedom from the Bretonian government. In this pact, the gold rush, as it were, of people stealing our new-found comrade's livelihoods has brought the SCRA's military to try and put a stop to it. We're still trying new things with the roleplay and there are some bumps in the road.
One of these bumps is the apparent restrictions placed upon our ID. Our woefully inadequate, embarrassingly out of date ID. But, in this case, the faction ID says it all "In Coalition, faction ID rules get you". It certainly did this time.
So, to the events of this evening. Now, from my perspective, the SCRA boys saw a bunch of Samura transports full of gold ore. Molly Gold ore. So we started CDing the transports to discuss some of the finer points of trading in said ore. Things degenerated quickly, and SNACs were launched. I'm not going to say I "accidentally" stripped the shields, I did not. I deliberately started in on the transports who, in my character's view, were disobeying orders. I was attacked, and changed my target from the Ryujin to the Garanchou (i think) that was attacking me, and was SNAC'd by Conner's Mafic (dam nice shot, didn't even see it coming!)
As to the BAF there...well, that wasn't our doing. They blew past us in Leeds on the tradelane as we made our way to the Cambridge Jumphole from Magellan, and we threw taunts at them on our way through. Honestly, I personally thought they were coming after us and happened upon you, choosing the Samura transports over the SCRA "terrorists" as their targets. There was definitely no coordination between the BAF and SCRA, that you can bank on.
So. Now here we are. The SCRA ID has been a sticking point the last few sessions out, and will be discussed and hopefully changed very soon. Sorry we let the RP of our characters and faction get ahead of our ID and the rules. Roleplay vs Fairplay vs Ruleplay I guess.
Thank you for an honest, reasonable response Chris, Cheers.
