News:

The Hyasyoda megacorporation is part of the 'liberal' faction, but is internally extremely conservative in business and its internal culture, with a great deal of pressure for employees to 'fit in'? It is still largely owned by the founding Osmon family.

Ok, so from what I understand here, you think that liberal RPs are happily cuddling with sansha loyalists just because they are allowed to walk in their public RP locations ?

I'm not Miz, but I think there are people who want RP (any RP) badly enough that they have their characters be very tolerant of opposing factions so they don't have to miss out on RP with people who some people might expect they would normally not talk to. I'm Ok with that, I don't want to play that way, but their way is not wrong.

What annoys me is people saying that I am damaging the RP community by not wanting to do social RP with people from opposing factions.

We walk between Mizhara on one side and Ashar on the other...

I see. Well, I have a character that thinks she is above most of the factions (even if she works inside of one), so she will not refuse any talk with opposite factions. Anyway, speaking with minmatars openly when being an amarr is nothing weird for liberals, but for Sansha like hostile entities, I can see the point. Anyway, she will never look for a talk by herself, or only if she has enough curiosity for something specific.

And that does not mean she will like them more, at the contrary.

Of course I don't know which characters you have in mind but I think you are going a little too fast in accusations, unless you have already taken the time to speak with the involved players to understand what are their reasons, and if they are worth it.

Mostly, but not all of it ?

No, it doesn't cover all of it, but close enough.
