Why We Need Kicking.

(1/6) > >>

James T. Kirk:
Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Engineers, Gunners, and Pilots, I now bring up the age-old topic of kicking.

Many group Kicking with Boarding, saying it will "Break the game mechanics" or "dis-inspire teamwork."

I strongly disagree.

I would like to preface this thread with three pieces of evidence as to why kicking is a necessity.
I invite you all to mindlessly support me with evidence of your own.

1) New people: Why should I bother training new people when a kick function will replace them with a more experienced crewmen in twice the time, with less than half the work?
Common, people, this point is just basic math.

2) Annoying others: We all know that there is no greater pleasure in this world than causing pain and frustration to another human being for no particular reason. Now, imagine with me, if you would, a situation where the Captain is taking his role WAY to seriously. As in, like, welcoming people to his ship, giving orders, or even going as far to start some sort of clan or something. Now, in the heat of battle, kick the poor guy outta the lobby and crash the ship into the ground.
You'll be able to feel the rage through the Global chat.

3) Finally, I present you all with the highest quality recording of one of today's FINEST minds in relation to "kicking."

Whenever someone talks about needing a kick mechanic, all I hear is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMNJuSl91qY

Cowboy Spike Spiegel:
I disagree with points 1, 2, and 3. Maybe I'm not supposed to take this thread seriously but, I personally like being a serious captain. I enjoy welcoming crew to a ship because it's nice for immersion. also the community is what comes first and foremost, training newbies is something of a task we should all undertake at least a bit. To make sure we keep growing and getting more new players, perhaps they will be experienced soon enough with our help. Also you just blatantly want to troll by kicking a captain who may or may not be an amazing pilot. If you kick pilots off their ships then you don't deserve to sit on their ship either.

I'm going to make this point here, this is the pit, nothing is serious here.
