' Wrote:Don't think any of 'em are... If you can find an example of them breaking the rules, then do what needs to be done when people break the rules. If an RoS member did something which isn't allowed within the rules (especially if it had a negative effect on other people's gameplay) then I'd spend time yelling at them.
I don't think he meant actual breaking of the rules but the imbalance in freedom that some special IDs allow and restricts to the others.
Dodike points at IND cargo restriction and IND tech chart as an example.

Exactly.
I point out to Aoi self-made tech chart too.

To my mind this works like this: some factions are open, you can join, you can fly as indie, nobody will ever bother you. Others operate as tightly knit and controlled rp as possible. If you don't like it, don't play it.
The point is there is a choice. Some people like to be part of a strictly controlled RP where anyone who joins can and probably will die if the leader decides so (SCRA). But if you hate that kind of control over you, then you join a different faction where there are few or no rules. It's all down to how people prefer it, and just because some people do not like other people having control over their RP does not mean this is every single player's here opinion.
If that was the case, factions like the SCRA would be empty of players, because lets face it - nobody is press ganged into them. People join because they want to and they understand what will happen to their chars when they join. So I would say in the interest of variety we shouldn't really force people how they want to run their factions... if their RP makes them evolve into an SCRA like "elitist" entity, then sure if they can pull it off by all means let them stay that way.
No Blodo, point is there is no choice. If someone wants to play a character in VIDEO GAME, they only have possibility to join official faction.
Choice is when you choose between two things, and choosing between joining official or not playing that kind of character at all....isn't a choice. Maybe it is in life, but this is a VIDEO GAME.
You can join another NPC faction that has no control over it if you don't like being controlled by a big bad faction leader. You can pretty much RP as anyone you like with a Freelancer ID. I fail to see your point.

Just like you can roleplay a battleship captain in a starflier, 100k above Manhattan, right? Why do we even have ships and bases? We could all roleplay on the forums.

They are not. Unless you are aoi. Tech chart is made by devs, and 'what says in faction creation request' didn't exist before your case.
That makes you the ones bending the rules, the rules that clearly state the opposite. My point was that this wasn't possible for regular factions, though your case just might have changed it, so Blood Dragons decided to request usage of Chimaeras too. It's just an example, like an IND one made by Dodike.

"Most of us will be flying Kusari Naval Forces ships such as the Chimaera or the Umibozu, coupled with the odd gunboat and Blood Dragon ship, although we will also be using the shiplines of other Kusarian factions as soon as we have established ourselves." http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=46449

Imagine that....damn. I'll go make flashpoint eagle with FL ID and roleplay a communist who can shoot anything.
Think I'll get sanctioned in first 10 minutes ?

LOL
Yes, apperently IND did made them. Shame Ageira,Interspace,DSE can't do the same right ?
ID's are probably self made too right ? Shame only IND one can land everywhere.
