I've been playing Discovery for quite a long time now, about 7-8 months in fact and probably the first thing most of you are thinking is: WHY HAVEN'T YOU JOINED SOONER?!??!
The reason is that it all boils down to RP maturity. I admit when i started i was pretty horrible. i did ooc chat on system comms, happily cruised thru Zone-21 and Alaska, traded on some dodgy unRP trade routes (yes including the tau-31 route) and i earnestly thought RP was a waste of time.
But praise the awesome Disco players who helped me, corrected me when i did something wrong and encouraged me to join the forums. While i didn't join i started having a look around here, at the rules, events and goings-on. Then i changed.
I realised that RP really takes this game to a whole new level. It makes everything from space fights to hauling cargo from place to place far more interesting and engaging for the player. Then i realised how stupid i was to ignore the forums and all the great stuff that happens here, which is why im joining today.
So i have seen the light, ive realised how great this place is and im ready to join the community and have a smashing good time!:D
Yes the RP makes the game much more fun.
Plus the foums give you ALOT of info about server related things including downtime, lag, rules, events, new ships, RP, fractions, etc.
If only a sparkle could lighten all the players as you've been.
Have fun ! Bring joy to others !
