' Wrote:So why enforcing such a rule in the first place ? For the lulz? I just don't get it. As far as I'm concerned, you can only fully control the bases that you actually bought - and those are mostly guard bases. And even if I had my own guard base, I wouldn't be so selfish to limit its docking just to my own faction.
Tell that to the 101st.
On topic.
Good idea - maby.
Inforceable - no.
Simple as this , if someone likes the idea and wants to RP it out with the LR- , they are free to do so. If not , nothing can be done about that. If someone wants to park his RM-1 on Buffalo. There is nothing they can do about that aswell. Aslong as he / she is not breaking any rules , the LR- , or any other faction for that matter , can't do a thing. The LR , dispite there name , are not the entire faction of the Liberty Rogues , but just a branch of them , or part of them. Del is not the only crime boss aswell , so what he says goes only for LR- named ships and people who want to RP with him.
You can dock wherever you want, do whatever you want, nothing will happen, LR- will just get pissed off, and maybe not come to your aid in a fight etc.
Also, a tip to all the people calling each other hypocrites; just because the other person is a hypocrite, doesn't make you innocent or make you win the argument, I say, so what?
Allright people, we get the point allready. You dont want this, fine. I am sure you understand and can be tolorant that we HAVE our reasons why did we want to make this.
Not only it would bring more RP rp in our fields, it would cut down on the RM-1 loldessies sitting near manhattan in a few ways.
Point is, yes, you whine about restriction, fine, no restriction, but if you start calling peoples names and, excuse me
Quote: "I'm an admin, bite me."?
Compleatly irrelevant arguments...
Then no, simply shed a tear for a unsuccessful RP development

Just to be clear on this matter.
I completely agree with the 101st wanting to ban the Dreadnaughts and battleships , only giving them to people who have proven to be good RPers and have writen a story for the ships and there commanders. I like the idea that you can't go with a starflea named "Teh Big Ship" and buy an Osiris , only to die to every random BH you meet and damage the image of the Order as a whole. I agree that the lolfleet of RM-1 needs to be cut down and controled. But the first 2 things where shot down by the admins and now one of them wants to try and do basicly the same thing that many other factions have tried and failed before. Well , problem with rules is that when you start making exeptions , you can't stop at all. Either there are no such rules , or there are and they are made inforceable by the factions.
ok Del im not going to attempt to enforce this on my rogue until im completely sure its within the rules the Bs| faction got smacked hard for trying something similar and i dont want anyone mad at me.
Also i think its only reasonable to say no dessy and up ships at buffalo and alcatraz becuase they are very small bases.
I really dont see this ending well..:/
Ive had enough of disco for now. I might be back at the next mod release.

the dessie lawl fleet is really outrageous, now, if I want to raid, I try and search for fighters and end up picking one out of eight dessies lol wuting around Malta.

Post has been updated. Removing the blanket ban on Alcatraz and downgrading it to a cap ban. Gunboats have also been removed from the list. Such vessels are now permitted to dock with both bases.
I am a little upset that an RP post was argued against via OOC means. There were plenty of options for getting around the bans and enough RP opportunities. It was never about enforcing it so much as getting a lot of the Rogue GB swarm to try a little RP with their allies above and beyond "Lulz wanna raid NY?"
Saint Del is considered a holy healer of diseases of children, but also as a protector of cattle.
People need to remember that admins are people who play this game too. Del runs the LR because he wants to play as a crime boss, and this was an attempt to regulate the idiot gunboat swarms which pollute Liberty night after night.
By regulate, I mean 'get them to fricking roleplay as this is a roleplay server', not force rules on them.
As a faction leader who also does a lot of policing and sees a lot of his play time wasted yelling at people, I side with him here. Shame on the lot of you who accuse the guy of abusing admin powers, you have no idea what the tradeoff is.
Policing the people who don't care about what we're about here, or those treat Disco RP 24/7 like a PVP server with a 4-hour punishment for losing and treat the rules only as something to narc on their 'enemies' over... it gets old fast. There's no pay, no reward. Your play time is constantly punctuated by fools who want you to wave your magic admin wand and make the bad man disappear. Anytime you want to bring something in line as a player, people call foul because you're entrusted with these powers. If you run a faction, that faction is under the microscope.
They take on the role of admin because they care about the server and want to do something about it. They are also trustworthy enough to. The lot of you who think it's all about power tripping? Shove it.
