R.I.P Outcasts 2003-2012

[Ceoran]

I have nothing of value to add

as usual, really.

Legates/Osiris that shot at Corsairs and/or refuse to leave fights when told resulting in them "team killing"
101st just shot at caps for going places that are with-in their ZoI, but perhaps a cap shouldn't be. Also you didn't make to many people happy trying to FR5 people for shooting Bretonians

What's with the entire "don't take your caps to bretonian"-thing though?

Oh, and if those outcasts are doing that with the purpose of changing the entire diplomacy, maybe a FR5 was the wrong approach and a 1.2 would have been better. Nowadays factions seem to be less willing to act upon indy trolling though (like, after the [A]-incident).

This thread is epic :cool:

However I can't blame that serious people have avoided to get involved with Outcasts. The only thing which fed the Outcasts the last year was the Taus and their interaction with Colonial Remnants has only downgraded the quality of OC players. What is happening now after the departure of CR is inevitable. In my opinion, it is good to have the OC dead for a small time in order to be resurrected by new blood and see something new as well.

The problem is that there's not going to get any good out of it if you just leave the new guys alone without any guidance (faction responsibility regarding setting examples). We had that before during a low-activity period and it really didn't get better afterwards.
In late .85 we were at a point where there are quite a few indies with a rather decent level. Considering it, I'd actually say that the certain council-GRN alliances have done their fair share as well of getting outcasts less interested in playing.

edit: Pil, same as to Space. if it entirely dies out you'll just have a short break before it starts over worse than before.

Go play the game, within the given limitations. That is how role play games are played. Not by trying to work around those limitations or whining about them.
