Look, another comes from the wood works. Very entertaining.
I've not merged player and role play. That would have been your domain, Lou. You were always unable to separate player from character.
Do explain how we are abusing the Zoner NPC faction. I'm sure we'd all like to hear your explanation.
As for your comments about your RP significance? What significance? Your faction is gone and everyone has moved on. No one even really noticed you left (for the second time, mind you). Courage? Laughs Playing a game takes courage now?
Sure, we never had the events the ZTC had, but I do recall we participated in them heavily. Was rather hard for us to have events like you did because we stuck to our guns. No capital ships. Period. Your faction folded because it became hard to keep people interested in a Zoner faction that doesn't allow the use of them. I would know, we deal with it all of the time. We managed where you failed.
That is your opinion and you're entitled to it. It is a rather idiotic opinion if you look at the facts, but you were always pron to idiotic ideas and thoughts.
I've not scratched anything from the Zoner plates. Independent Zoners are free to role play a Zoner how they want. I, nor have any other OSI leadership, ever pretended that OSI represented all Zoners. We represent a group of Zoners. A group that consists of traders, fighters, and business men. Unlike your faction, we won't compromise our faction's founding lore and role play for the sake of activity. If we can't generate the required activity required to maintain our status doing what it is the faction was founded to do, then we'll relinquish our status.
Edit: Taking bets on when n00bs and other Omicroners will drop by to take pot shots. PM for details.
