' Wrote:I fail to see why some ppl look for rules to avoid having to RP. (EG "You cannot attack me in my transport/freighter whatever 'cos I'm neutral. I only use this character to build up vast sums of money for the characters I do RP with here on the server". Well that's what this place is all about 'Role-Play' so enjoy yourself and role-play in a character that transports stuff and gets a big pay-day when no one kills or blackmails it but equally smile and move on when you do get ragged by those damn one eyed, parrot shouldered pirates! Heck create a Pirate character yourself and do some pillaging....and a lawful one while your at it to protect the traders (RM are laways recruiting nudge nudge wink wink;-])
Wait... You're allowed to transfer money between characters? o_O
And keeping to the spirit of the rules and RP is a fine thing to do... But you can't count on everyone doing it. There'll always be people who want to exploit a loophole for their own gain. Only way to prevent that is making the official rules as clear as possible (and making the line between freighter/transport as clear as possible). I personally plan on upgrading to a Whale and Trader ID just as soon as I make the 15mil more I need to do so.
