Good evening kind sirs. I am new to this community so forgive any mistakes I may make.
I come before you all with a question: Recently, I have got to 100 Persuasive. I am given to understand this means I can become A Person Of Some Importance. However, I have my reservations on whether or not I SHOULD. You see, I am given to understand that a lot of the game becomes much harder when you do so, like menace stats being much more difficult to eradicate. However, I am also given to understand that the rewards are sometimes much more enticing.
In short, my question is simple: Can someone tell me the good and bad points of becoming a Person of Some Importance, if the good outweighs the bad or vice versa, if they would recommend it, and anything else of note they can think of and reckon I should know in regards to this important position?

I will accept all actions, though I hold the right to refuse for my own reasons. However, if you explain WHY you send me a harmful action like Loitering or Dantes,And I feel the reason good, I will consider it more. http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Kylestien

As mentioned, it is more a matter of taste than anything. Do you WANT a Zubmarine? I had the unfortunate experience of being exposed to great literature as a child, and so the thought of Captain Nemo-ing my way about the Unterzee appealed to me way more than being a great floating party barge.

Well if you just want to visit places in a ship you should probably start with the tramp steamer or the clipper and save up for stuff for the more expensive ships.
Besides I clearly am destined to get a zubmarine since I'll need one to visit the Lorn-Flukes.

I think the whirring contraptions are worse, really. (I mean, part of that is I dislike Wilmot's End though xP but it also is like three times as many soooo.)
And yeah just do the POSI story as you unlock it, you won't be able to get past the first step since that's the dangerous check, though.
