' Wrote:Careful, very careful what you are issuing here, Zelot.
This goes way too far.
All the trade with Ivan i did screenshots.
And all others we met i did screenshots - a whole bunch of corsairs.
and i even traded in my corsair slaver.
If this was set up to fraud players here, just one call and i get your balls.
What the heck is going on here?!
Look at the thread Dragonlancer, it really says it all.
Here is a particular line that I posted that should clear up why I am a little annoyed, because this was posted and ignored by the ZTC.
Quote:Its a corsair event, not a zoner one...
Oh, and Dragon, you can have my balls, you just have to be gentle.

sanction me for what?
The only reactions from this on my side will be in-rp, which is how you should handle things that happen in game. Right?
File a sanction report on me for whatever you want... just be gentle with my balls..Kay?

Pulling a snipet of that quote will not do. Here's the whole thing:
Quote:Maybe we didnt want to smack people in the face with it, Maybe we didnt want people abusing it. Maybe we wanted it to make it neat and something to be discovered, not flatly laid out for everyone on the forums to know. Its a corsair event, not a zoner one... but I forgot, this is disco, people dont want to figure things out, they want every little thing that might effect even one of thier trade routes explained ooc, and if they are not told they bitch and moan untill it is explained oorp to the whole community... Maybe, just maybe we wanted it to be a cool in rp event. Guess telling people exactly where to find the news ooc isnt enough.
I didn't read this when I made my run, but when I did, here is what I got from it:
You are arguing with Frank about not wanting to reveal detail regarding the Food Shortages. Frank asks, why is it that there is no news on FP15 about it. You say "It's a Corsair event, not a Zoner one." Meaning, the news is on Crete not on the Freeports.
Quote:That's all I needed to know, however, I'd like to think if someone has 'bought' out the supplies, the someone there would be record of it on the base.

How many times does the phrase misunderstanding needs to be said here?
Zoner Trading Consortium (]c[) - DragonLancer - 11-04-2009
heck what is wrong here?
we are here to have some leisure time but what do we got?
GRAB A BIBLE AND READ THAT BOOK
or talk to me but not this way.
i'm here to have some fun and stuff

As I said, in-rp you stole money from Sephardi's pockets, in rp we will respond. This is infact how rp develops, but I guess you Zoners are used to trying to tell people how the rp should go OOC.
Zoner Trading Consortium (]c[) - DragonLancer - 11-04-2009
well i get that thing now.
bah

First, I want you to swear to me that you are not upset at the ZTC as players.
If you are upset at us Out of Character, then your RP is biased and is itself OOC.
If you continue to hold a grudge against us on the account of a misunderstanding and carry that into roleplay, we have no reason to play period.

As I said before: Some heads-up would be nice. We have faction leaders and if they were informed over PM or by any other way about the exclusive nature of this event, we would not be taking any part in it.
Now, I understand that people either envy us or simply hate us because you never see our name in sanction thread and we manage to keep the level of our RP adjusted to the high standards of this community.
I would gladly send to you all the cash I made last night, while having fun, but now I won't do it out of the principal. The way you came with flames on us will cost you of that privilege.
When we organised Leonardo event we announced it weeks before, we invited most of the community in, huge number of people participated, yet there was no (at least public or to my knowledge) announced participation from the Keeper side. They came along, did what Keepers do, our escorts did their job and 25% of the server's population that was online at that moment had a blast.
Last night we had Ivan in fleet with us and he knew nothing about this event. Without any hesitation he played along, took the opportunity, grouped with us, had fun, made profits and now he's cowardly turning his back on us, claiming he was tricked into it? Nice display of personal integrity there Ivan. Good to know what we might expect from you in the future.
And regarding whole this OOC matter that came out of the OOC confusion you want to make retribution with in RP actions? Well go for it. As long as you open meta-gaming festival I can assure you that all my BHG crew and some other groups I'm member of (*wink-wink, nudge-nudge*) will be on your back. You'll lose more money in equipment and cargo then you'll ever make on pirating ZTC ships.
Seriously, how low can you go?

Ivan being upset as a character, made sense. But this kind of comment made me somewhat upset:
Quote:what a low blow man... Sorry ZTC but that was lame.
Ivan knew no more or less about the event than we did. He had as much of a chance to look at Crete news as anyone else. What about all the other characters that were abusing the event long before ZTC got on the scene? How about all of the HAF patrols sitting outside -- RIGHT outside of Crete and telling us to dock with our Food shipments?
