Hi,
I was reading this thread https://forum.neocron-game.com/showt...r-vs-Clan-Join and while we can argue until we are blue in the face if there should be a penalty or not, one thing is abundantly clear.
I would rather have people stick around and increase the population in our beloved game than leaving because they get constantly killed just for joining a clan with their friends.
More players bring more players themselves and if even half of those are using LE I honestly can't say I would be bothered. There would be enough to PvP anyway and NC would be, in my opinion, thriving. Even if NC can't compete with newer games graphic wise, it still has something they don't and we need to do what we can to keep new players in.
Even from a role playing aspect, the LE works without penalties in my opinion.
The cash and XP penalty can be discussed (although it would not bother me at least if that is gone as well), but the most important one is the ability to join a clan.
So here's one vote to removing the LE penalties.
