Ship usage is a moot point. It's been the subject of 15 of these 30 pages, and we've decided on a rule to always own a Shadow. With the Shadow the way it is, I doubt it'll be long before everyone and his mother has a Penumbra. Good ship, the Penumbra. I've gotten Luxury Liners to explode in it before. I doubt it'll take long for others to start using it.
Funny you should complain about RP, though, Sindroms. I believe you put these in one of your Skype chats:
Why? Only to ridicule us? I can note that you were sitting at a trade lane, sighting someone who doesn't really want to be seen, nor really wants to chat. 5k of space doesn't leave much room for chatting anyway. What exactly did you even expect? You're a lawful fighter craft, we don't really have the time to fight fighters. Not to mention that Liberty is the capitol of capital ships in the game. Later that night we had to run from this:
Because we didn't leave a lawful mercenary alone quick enough. I don't see what we did wrong there, leaving you. I think the LR would do the same thing, really.
Furthermore, asking if I wanted to PvP or RP? That's funny, really. Anyone who has to ask for RP does not have RP in mind. Frankly, this inquiry just pissed me off. It ruined my night, in fact, and I was having a great night. I was just getting complimented for this:
And then someone comes along and just decides to spit at me. I'll tell you something right now: I don't appreciate this. I don't go pming the Rogues or any of your characters whether you're in the mood for a political debate or whether you're going to be quick to the trigger. I'm not all that fond of a lot of people here, and I would NEVER think to say something like this to someone. It's simply rude and it does little but segregate the server population. If I may ask nicely, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from doing this to me or any other Phantom in the future. Thank you.
And would you like to know why Umbra rushed off without saying a word? It's because he was coming to help me with this:
A nice Liberty Gunboat who came up the lane right after I had finished laying a trap for a .:J:.. Lets have a look at that trap, too, while we're at it.
I don't think that's poor RP. I don't think that's even mediocre RP. I rather think that this is good RP; the Junker was even inclined to agree, and he died, even! Really, I don't know where your accusations of me being more interested in PvP than RP are coming from.
Oh, yeah, and Virus? You're a troll. How's that for feedback!?
EDIT: Hahaha, also, see that note from Shamrock in your first screen? That's me talking to him. I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't attempt to drag our name through the mud in the future, especially on such horribly shallow accusations.
[8:32:45 PM] Dusty Lens: Oh no, let me get that. Hello? Oh it's my grandma. She says to be roleplay.
[12:49:19 AM] Elgatodiablo: You know its nice that you have all that proof and all, Bacon... but I just don't believe you.
