NPCs are Bad because;
For them, Red is Dead.
I believe just this One Single Reason is enough to make them "Bad". I had this problem when I first undocked from Erie on my First day on Server, decided to go to New York, and Rogue NPCs blasted my Starflea out to the Sky in the Badlands. I had this problem when I was trading in my Gull and Hessian NPCs would blast my ship in matter of seconds because they were just... Red! I still had this ship when I was part of ]bd[ and used to RP in Kusari, the Dessie patrols spawning every 20 secs are not really nice. I had this problem when I flied my Hessian around Rheinland. even the military Valkies are a pain. I still have this problem when I trade, NPCs kick me out of the lane every 2 mins. They cant kill me, but they still annoy me. I still have this problem when I'm on my Hunter in Delta. If I sit still for 2 secs, I'm a Dead piece of scrap. I still have this problem on my Corsair when I try to go anywhere outside Crete Orbit. I still have this problem when I'm on Saerieve, and nearly everything is shootin' at me. I don't mind any of these, I can type fast enough, I can dodge good enough, I don't even mind turning into a Blue message. But even with all these, Trying to RP or PvP against an already uneven numbers, while you Also have 12 NPCs railing you up is just.......... Stupid!
