How about we make the Nomads open use

[Vrabcek]

As Phoenix said, there is a recruitment.
So if people are willing to join the keepers and play a nom, you can do it.
In this way the quality of the RP wont be harmed.

and shouldn't be restricted to the admin/dev connected.

They're not: http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=95260 . Not stop saying they are. please?

And, with that ID Squid suggested... If people don't know the way to RP as nomads, what would you consider relevant RP? If you can't do the nomad speech, how would you communicate?

[Rodent]

Maybe the nomads can add a RP Drone to their lore? Drones,as you know, don't speak much, cannon fodder, mainstay of nomad forces and defenses. Spammed like hell, very limited telepathic ability.

It'd translate to a little stronger Morph with normal nomad guns.

[Jansen]

Modification:
Pilot carrying this ID is a Nomad, who :

Can attack any ship or station at will, provided the relevant RP is used beforehand.
Cannot venture outside the Omicron, Omega or Tau systems unless accompanied by a Keeper.
Cannot demand credits.
Cannot land anywhere except Nomad bases.
Abuse of this ID such as OORP engagement may result in player sanctions or bans. This is not a Terrorist ID.

Allowed ships: Only Nomad Fighters and Bombers unless otherwise approved by the Keepers.

This actually is a Terrorist ID, what would you deem to be relevant RP to justify someone at will? ***I Nom ... U Dead*** ?
Because thats what I could imagine to happen in more the one case.
And the ZOI is pretty big as well, limiting it to the Omicrons only should be better.

The Nomad RP is pretty damm hard at this time.

There should be a nomad ID that you can buy, without having to join the keepers. There is not very much feedback on the keepers forum, and most will think it gets dull trying to become a nomad and quite at least trying. I have experienced this myself.

The Nomad ID should be purchase-able at Iota or the ravine.
A new nomad should have decent knowledge of nomad RP, and atleast able to say the things he want to a bit morphed, like. ** -"greets"~"OrangeFaced"- ** <--- that should be enough, if you want to play as nomad in the omicron's and maybe even the Omega's (for wild bases).

The nomad must be able to get nomad ships up to a bomber, and wild ships up to a gunboat. When a nomad want's to get a better ships it's up to the keepers and the Admins to consider the nomad his RP skills.

Battleships should be Keepers only?

that's my idea.

When nothing goes right, go left!

[Tomtomrawr]

Absolutely not. It would be more feasible to make Order invite-only instead.

[17:45:39] Wolfs Ghost (Murphy): Tom, you have problems. Go kill yourself.
[19:25:12] Johnny (Jam): Tomtom, I will beat you with a spoon.
[14:22:56] Prarabdh Thakur: KILL HIM WITH A SHEEP.
[17:40:48] Eagle (Junes): Tom should be slapped with a spoon.
[11:32:18] Warspite: Thank you for being so awesome Tom. &lt;3
[18:17:36] Metano: I love you tomtom
[20:06:24] Warspite: I will seriously give you epic head.

Edit: also, Tomtomrawr, fappin' like a boss.

[Vrabcek]

The result of opening nomads for free use would be: ***die***
I wouldnt like that would happen.
So again, the Keepers are keeping the decent level of nomad RP

I sense Q_Q coming.

Would give us something to do.

BUT.

We all can pronounce "Marduk Spam", right?

I predict more Wilde Gunboats than Order Ossies.
Nomad RP is the same in any ship(you can't roleplay a battleship with nomad personnel, because there's one nomad per ship, regardless of it's size).
You can become a nomad. There's the Nomad Trial ID.
I don't think anyone will want to analyze every persons Nomad RP capability. And Nomad RP is much more complicated than ''** -"greets"~"OrangeFaced"- **''. And I'd rather like having Keepers than mediocre Nomads.

Keepers, Wilde, Aoi Iseijin, Phantoms are something that can be called ''Premium'' factions. They have a certain load on their name. The fact that they're harder to get in to makes them attract more eyes. So they're really careful who they let in.

Personally, I'm perfectly fine with the system that the Keepers have now. The one and only reason why I may support some ideas mentioned here (of course, NO indie Nomad BSs, cruisers, GBs; morphs should be the only ships available for those who choose to play as nomads without joining the faction, but with proper tech and a little Trial ID buff, like mentioned by some people before me) is because the Order may (or may not; that depends on Keeper activity) have a hard time meeting their arch-enemy in game. So, I posted in the thread only as an Order player. Of course, all Keeper encounters I had were fun, but people can't be always online, I do realise that. It might be one of the reasons why the Order are accused of so-called "not doing their job".

I can perfectly understand your concerns, and I do agree with people who say that the buff of the Nomad Trial may not be the best idea. But it might have some benefits too, which I described in my previous post in this thread.

Note: this is merely my stance which may or may not be similar to Order| faction's position.

P.S.: and surely, no gunboats for Nomad indies. I'm not sure that even Assassins should be available, shoud a buff of Trial ID ever happen.

P.P.S.: corrected the post a bit.
