*sigh* I just don't see what giving you more space will do but simply make the playing field larger. you're not actually changing the fact that as a military commander, you're still basically border patrolling or having a sector fleet beign dumped on your a**. You're still being chased by sector rangers through three different zones, and you're still hiding in the same areas as a pirate.
The only difference is the fact that instead of 4, we're up to 7. What is being different? Seriously, I keep asking this, but nobody answers it?

Cale have you ever tried to sneak into an Imperial Sector Base? Let me describe to you what its like. I had to do this once in a game.
You jump to the edge of a system and are immediately ordered to halt. A Star Destroyer arrives along with a number of customs ships. Did I mention you're in the shadow of one or more Golan Platforms? They board your ship and do a complete inspection, after you're okayed by that team you're given clearance to enter the system.
You jump to the planet you were destined too. Once you arrive you're ordered to half and are frisked once again by an inspection team. You dock, are frisked a third time by a third set of inspectors. You are not allowed to exit your ship while the imperials offload the cargo for you. You are paid, and then ordered to leave. You're then escorted out.
To put it bluntly it's about ten times easier smuggling stuff onto a star destroyer than it is to smuggle stuff into a sector base.

Let me know when you remember that the Empire is in decline, that the troops are not as well trained, the gear as well maintained and reliable, and the confidence isn't as present as it did back during the Empire's Height.
As for sneaking into an imperial base?
Yes. I did it. I did it multiple times.
The Rebel alliance did it with considerable frequency as well.
You are not as secure as you think you are. No Empire in Decline is.

It's not like the 4 systems are the only four in the sector, either. It's simply there to get people familiar with the area. Later, when people need other things to fight and beat up, we'll toss in a few more. I don't think you're going to be starting off the RP with a fisticuff sector fleet vs. sector fleet battle to warrant expansion at this time either. You shouldn't have an issue to go whacking around with the NR and the neutral zones at this time.

Cale Darksun As for Nelo's restrictions, they were put there for a reason. Until, as a group, we can pull our heads out of our asses and work together, they're gonna stay. I'm not seeing this happening. And so long as those restrictions stay Guild participation is almost certainly going to remain non-existent. We started out with a good idea, created a committee and destroyed it. Nice, might as well call the RP dead now and save ourselves a couple months of hassle.

Because the mods were required to step in and break up a hostile situation, restructions were required. And I thought you checked attitude at the door.

Ok, someone needs to bend here, because we're not getting anywhere with this.
We're already up to seven systems, seven entire systems from the origional 3, which was bumped up to 4 in the mod forum and then has been progressively bumped up until this number here.
How many systems are people even going to visit?

Perhaps I should rearranged that sentence to broadcast what I meant.
We started off with a good idea, created a committee, the committee destroyed it. Now we're left with a committee and a destroyed idea.
(Apparently my ego returned when I thought about playing in this tiny sandbox and saw both my pirate and my military officer either dead or bored to tears by page 10.)

Pick up the god damn phone sometime when someone calls you, and we wouldn't have to be having this conversation.
And have you completely ignored my Imperial Privateer suggestion?

Honestly, I haven't seen much participatino in this RP formation to begin with. Stellar and Des are pretty much the only two Non-mods who have really given any contribution to the discussion. Not to say that the imput by rodyn, k, or elvis isn't appreciated and whatnot.
Honestly, I'm about ready to snuff this and let everyone run wild. Just to be on the safe side, everyone's a force user too, just to give a dose of STFU.

Nelo brings up a point. Does anyone else really care about this RP?

How many active members do we have? Of that number how many have participated? Of that number, how many have disappeared since the fighting in here started.

Almost 1/2 of everyone who was interested has not replied at all.

So does that mean we're gonna scrap this? Next time, let the members come up with their own RP. Someone besides me, cale, des, DA, and EK having any issues. Let someone else design the plot, the areas, control the profiles and whatnot. I'm really getting tired of hearing these rumors of people fed up with the mods, and always putting us down because we're the only ones who step up to the plate to do anything.
Nothing says you can't get up and help out, and take some initiative to try to improve things.
