What is Null Sector about?

The underlying motif of Null Sector is "player freedom within the bounds of reason". With other forks choosing heavy-handed nerfs and removing beloved features for no reason other than to "fix" what wasn't broken; the heavy-handedness drove folks to try out new servers. Our server is not about removing things that are fun for 'balance', we tune and add-to what is already present. The aim is to be a fun and more relaxed place than the stricter servers, moderated just enough to prevent griefing and egregious self-antagonism with experienced, disciplined staff.

Our standards apply to owner, admins, and players alike, and emphasize minimal admin intervention and acceptable admin moderation, preventing egregious admin meme-rounds. Our overall focus is to improve all aspects of the game alongside ship combat as opposed to strictly focusing on ship combat itself. In other words, its a mixed-focus and not strictly just ship combat; science, salvage, mining and etc. are the general priorities.

Rounds are six (6) hours long, but nobody is obligated to stay the full duration. Null Sector with the mindset of a D&D campaign, evoking a similar paradigm without the limitations of tabletop schedules and management. (See MRP Roleplay Ruleset for details)

What separates it from the rest?

Theres quite a bit, we highly recommend that you check out the Things We Got. Players needn't be worried about constant admin intervention and meme-rounds, as priorities are roleplay over the rest. Folks are justified in defending themselves with lethal weapons in a classy manner, and antagonists aren't micro-managed. Roles here are managed a little differently, as there isn't an "official" police force ala the NFSD (Frontier). When it comes down to it, we honestly aren't too different from other servers, but the familiarity ends with the content.
