RP (Roleplay) Boat is a somewhat derogatory term used to describe a ship that was built in one of the space ship sandboxes (Starmade, Empyrion, Space Engineers, etcetera) that is completely overblown with decoration. Such ships include hull shaped to look visually appealing, greeble, extensive interiors that don't serve any functional purpose, making it fit to perform roleplay in, but generally less effective at combat in their respective games. A Meme Stick, on the other hand, is a long, pointy ship that completely sacrifices aesthetics for function.
That's a nice RP Boat you have there

A Meme Stick is a common space ship design across the various space ship sandboxes (Starmade, Space Engineers, Empyrion, etcetera) that optimizes sheer firepower and effectiveness over any kind of aesthetics, which often causes them to be giant, blocky sticks. A meme stick doesn't necessarily have the pointy side facing towards the intended target for shooting/mining. If said space ship sandbox has a shield system, be it from the base game or a modification of the base game, Meme Sticks don't tend to have armor. Alternatively, an RP boat is a derogatory term for a ship where aesthetics have been prioritized over function.
