Elite roleplay: Q&A and OOC

Guys, would you like to have some BBcode tag for that? How it should work then (different color, text in a box or something like that)?

That would be rather silly, because then all my text would be a funny colour.

Lambast Mercyout on the edge of the bubble, doing clandestine missions in clandestine secret ways where no other players are even close to being involved, I’ll be sticking to our house rules thanks very much.
If ya wanna get involved, just pop a message our way, or maybe an invitation will come along if we like your posts. My explorer's log got me invited to the party.

It might have been your explorers log that got you invited, but your fight scene on Vuia Survey is what got you a home.

Hello all

I have recently gotten interested to jump into the RP boards and give things a shot. I have never participated in a RP board before and find it a little daunting to be honest. I have read the rules on in the forums and have read through some of this forum board also. The knowledge base here and constructive criticisms/convos to better ones writing look on point. I'm mostly a casual player in game so my knowledge base of lore could use some improving. Right now I am trying to develop a character but wanted to ask in here where people would recommend to go for a read into the lore, or even a more summarized version. Basically I just wanted to introduce myself first before posting anything in the boards and apologize in advance if my writing is not quite at everyone else's level lol. Also would anyone reccommend or have thoughts on whether it would be better to start writing logs before entering RP? Seeing that both are differnt perspectives and build completely different I'm debating which may be the better option to start out.

Thanks

I consider logs and RP threads to be pretty different, only because you don't really get interaction with other commanders in your personal logs. As such, I don't know that its important one way or the other which you start on.

I don't think there is a reason to feel that it's 'daunting' though. You can really start with a simple post if you want, just a simple action of 'walk into the bar, order a drink, say something interesting' whatever. From there, someone may interact with you, or you can keep an eye on the other things going on and gently insert yourself into the narrative that way.

If it's lore you need, there is a place for that in a Discord.

That and there are a lot of us here with a wealth of information. Just ask, bub.

I haven't tried in a long time, but does PS4 not have a screenshot feature so that you can share an image?

If you can email your self the image, you can then import it to an imaging program to crop it down to the face.

All we do on PC is:   Screenshot > Photoshop-like-program > upload to Inara/Frontier Forums


...some of us edit it more to give smiles or frowns... or change the backgrounds.

I use the PS4's screenshot feature, copy the image to a USB stick (or what have you), load it to my computer and open it in image editing program. Crop to the appropriate size and upload here.

Hi all,

An example is Duamta in which "the order of smiling moose" although with the major influence don't control the system...

Hey Astroraffa,

First I'll just get this out of the way: This is the Roleplay board. Your question should be posted in General. But, no harm or worries. Just letting you know. Alright?

Now, as for your question: the faction with the most influence does not own a station, therefor they do not have a place to exert control and influence. You would have to get the target faction up/down to the same level of influence of the faction that controls the main station. Once that happens, they will probably get into a civil war. Win that civil war by enough, and the control goes to your target faction.

I'll further answer things in General, or you can join the Discord chat (link is to the right).

Are you familiar with Scotland and the SNP?

No, Morgana, I'm not so informed about SNP... But, what is SNP?!
