Hey guys,
So I've come out of my shell a bit from running a liberty corporation and decided to something different, and that was to build a neutral Freelancer station in the heart of Bering "That big stink of a red zone" in the middle of Liberty and Rheinland which turns out to be actually quite fun.
So we "group of 5" decided to come together and slap the base in F6, relatively away from all stations and jump holes. That being said, I didn't read the core upgrade two rule of: Bases located within 15k of mining fields will not be permitted to advance beyond Core 2. It was an oversight and mistake of my own, to start building the station there not thinking about the location towards the mining field, which is about 12/13k on average. I was sure to not place it next to the mining field as to let everyone have a fair grasp of some good money.
So I went ahead and asked the Disco Team devs gm's ext that yes I'm human and made a damn stupid mistake after creating a core 2 base, time is not something I take lightly.
My intentions was to create a Core 4 base and design and a Freelancer ID Faction called the "German Market People" and their HQ was the "German Market Place." A RP Story nobody has ever come up with in Discovery. Unfortunately due to the core 2 rule we was unable to build to core three, and subsequently the Disco Team as per rules rejected our upgrade offer.
So my initial reaction was, okay. I messed up bad. But, can we move the station? Again the Disco Team again rejected my offer and was wondering if the community would like this rule to change, obviously the 15k from a mining zone I actually agree with now I've thought about it and come to the terms with my mistake but I thought, well hang on it doesn't take much to actually move the base.
So my question and discussion I'd like with the community is should we push for a "POB Move Rule"
Where things like:
Base's can only be moved once per annum (With restrictions)
Base has to be within the same system it was built
Base has to be located within reasonable distance from lawful and unlawful bases in regards to the RP of the station.
(I.e a Liberty Rogues POB base couldn't sit outside Manhattan docking rings)
Base move request must be made with a valid reason or purpose I.e built station in wrong location or within the 15k mining zone block. (Not because you're not making enough money from it)
Base move request costs 500,000,000 Sirius Credits.
---
I wanted to move the station further away from the mining zone & although yes I'm the idiot for plonking it in the wrong place, should my time be wasted just to let the base rot only to once again spend hours upon hours dragging commodities from around the sirius sector to build another like for like station down the road, when a dev could just edit the position of the base.
Clearly this post is NOT against the GM or Dev team, as they've only replied within the current rules and conduct of the server. But I suggest we ask for a change. Freelancer isn't getting any younger nor is my spare time getting any longer.
Topic begins, please discuss
