Edited by: Seleene on 11/08/2006 06:34:20 Okay, assuming this is an OOC discussion...
Originally by: Archbishop clearly the people who hire mercs to do their fighting for them and bring in non-RP players who smacktalk in local are clearly not RPers to begin with. (Not talking about KIA here just past experience).
That is a good point, but it's no reason to stop the RP from your side. Hell, the few times I've been in a situation where there was some RP going on in local or during an event, I dove right into it. I think it's a lot of fun and if we (MC) ever had to fight against or alongside a group of people such as CVA or UK, from what I've seen I think people would be surprised at how far we'd take it.
Quote: Either way the employer is obviously an inept coward unable to fight his own battles so he runs and hires mercs. I think that says alot about who he is as a person.
Now, hold on a minute there. Take a look at what you are saying from an RP standpoint. Think about the history and purpose of mercs in the real world and EVE as well. Our role has always been either to support a larger force to ensure specific goals are accomplished or to be the tip of the sword for an overall greater purpose.
You've got a group of people who are weaker than you militarily but they have the economic power to still see their will done. They are willing to use that economic power to see events shaped to their desires. History is filled with tales of rich people who use others in order to achieve their goals.
Quote: Given the recent activities relating to PIE and CVA and all the mercs tossed at us its also pretty obvious where this comes from.
Yeah... from what I've read of this conflict though, regardless of what personal feelings exist, it's plainly obvious that the 'anti-CVA' people in this war are not in it for the short term.
Quote: So I'll just point out as I said above....... they're not RPers at all.
Why is that? Because they are not doing this the way you would? M8, CVA is one of the most well-established alliances in EVE. There is a core of morale and dedication there that few others in this game can even match. In an RP sense, CVA is arrogant and self-righteous to a fault, which is fine because TBH you've earned the right to be that way due to three years of accomplishments.
In character or out of character, can you really blame your opponent for using every means at their disposal to try to take you down?

Originally by: Ethidium Bromide so i hope that KIA will accept our roleplaying and calling them ape men and heathens and see that it is not smack but just our way to deal with things.
Or piglets!! -

Originally by: Yazoul Samaiel Go check the KIA KBs ya lazy MC gits :P I am pretty sure Eddez will have a warm fuzzy feeling if u do and he will purrrr on TS
I'm at work and can't see that from here. Besides, I wanna see some more of this awesome role-playing stuff. Archbishop can give a sermon about the evil ways of the greedy mercs and their cowardly employers, then Eddz can talk some more about killing everything that moves just by entering local! \o/ -

Originally by: Garreck It throws the nature of the CVA vs PIE into sharp relief. PIE work very hard within the Empire, still very tightly embraced with Amarr civilization and society. CVA look outwards to expand the Empire (via Providence) which exposes them ever more to the "inferior" cultures and the exotic new technologies presented by those cultures.
Explorers on the frontier becoming more rough cut and adapting to their new environment however they can...to include some means that would be considered "barbaric" by their own civilization's standards. Still strongly loyalist (obviously) but effected in subtle ways by their exposure.
That's one way of looking at it, at any rate.
I've become firmly convinced that if I ever went to war with PIE, I would try to get a picture of Golan flying a Stabber, or something equally 'vile'. I figure most of his old corp mates would CTD on the spot.
Then again... I'd have to get the man out of his damn carrier and every third word out of his mouth these days seems to be 'Aeon' so I don't think it's very likely... -
