To be honest, I didn't expect any self-critical reflections here, but I was still hoping to get some answers. There seem not to be many answers concerning the Volkhanists (which I personally don't find surprising from what I've seen ingame).
' Wrote:As for other explanations, I suggest you follow the rather substantial RP on the forums surrounding them.
Forum Rp is nice... if roleplay (with the exception of foreplay to pewpew) also existed ingame I would not be writing negative feedback. But if the only thing that gets into ingame roleplay is "You are an Enemy, we shoot you, for Volkhan!" then it is not enough... even though there is forum roleplay.
Quote:I also recommend you go back about 2 years and take a look at SCRA diplomacy at that period, and once compared you will understand.
If you point me to a thread, I will do that. The forum is just not made for finding these things without some pointing to and I haven't been around at that time, so I have no real idea.
Quote:Edit: Oh, and here's another... fun... thought, have you ever contacted a member of the Volkhanists AFTER the raid is conducted to ask permission to re-enter the system? If it is for RP purposes, and not to get your pew on, you might find them very very reasonable in granting that permission.
Agreed, but this doesn't keep me from being sanctioned if anybody (not your guys) reports me. I'm not taking risks. But I guess that after 2 lolraids in only 6 hours on the same system permission to stay in will be granted.
What I find worrying: I haven't been pointed out how I can play with Volkhanists without doing rather meaningless OORP shooting. That is a core question, and it should be one that is answered quickly and without hesitation in a roleplay game! Knowing how to play with the others, what to offer, how to react to roleplay is the very core of roleplay in my opinion.
So... I ask again: How can I play with Volkhanists if I do not want to shoot? What does that group contribute to roleplay (except very one-sided lulz in pvp), what roleplay do you offer to players like me?
If you shoot up complete systems and disrupt roleplay severely for non-pewpew roleplay like you did yesterday twice, I feel it is my right to ask for that way to be pointed out to me.
