That's not the kind of role play you think it is, it is the buy our mining permit and follow our rules or else kind.

So they're not role-playing space-extortionists with a semi-religious devotion to a messiah figure and his commandments?


No, they are roleplayers, disregard the previous poster. They just do not see the cost-benefit of paying off a extortionist cult a pittance (10 million a year - that's like 15min work to the bot aspirant ice miner) and the cessation of afk mining so they will not be bumped out of mine range and/or shelled by a fleet of catalysts, piloted by zealots who have bathed in the holy light of concord and have found it wanting.

Why do you care? Did they personally offend you somehow?

Roleplay? What do they mean roleplay? In the bedroom? Is the OP taking too much Crash?

Why such trivial matters given these grave concerns with the ongoing war and the Sansha incursions?

I could say much more, but I have to send some letters to the families of recently deceased members of my crew from a ship I lost to those Serpentis scum.

The world would be a much better place if we would work harder to rid our space of these pirates instead of talking gibberish on GalNet.

I stumbled into Brapelille recently, and I found a lot of people role-playing as angry miners who had just lost their exhumers. They were very dedicated to their role, uttering all manner of harsh words and making numerous threats against the people role-playing as freedom fighters and custodians of high security space.

This thread needs less whining and more erotic spacefiction.

CCP mostly sucks at their job, but Veritas is a pretty cool dude.

Pretty sure most folks think fat neckbeards circle jerking on SA and playing "PEW PEW BUZZLIGHTER SPACE RANGERZ" is equally as lame.
