RE: Zoners - GTB - 06-04-2013
I have mixed feelings about the Zoner faction, most players I’d say see them as a “neutral HIPPY faction” and will leave them alone trading happily because of it (most of the time), even pirate factions ignore them. But do think some zoners play on that fact, why you have so many zoner player-bases going untouched (never getting attacked) by other factions. In that sense it’s a faction some players can take advantage off for their own money making gains, why I have mixed views about the zoner faction as a whole. They are a faction unto themselves, they tend to keep to themselves (like a secret membership). But get too much safe passage in Sirus all the time for me.. be a zoner if you want to trade and be left alone.
You have that zoner player-base in Baffin that shoots anyone jumping into the system from Tau-29, but it makes me laugh because the bases gun turrets was obviously placed “right next to jump-hole on purpose” to kill people unaware (without any warning). It’s annoying the zoners went and did that as a faction seen by most to be neutral, and don’t care if Baffin is their prime system as an excuse. The point is about that one, nobody attacks that base for doing it. Why? Because (it’s a Zoner base). People, they generally don‘t want to be seen attacking a zoner base, or zoner players in general for that matter. They’re just a funny faction to me, you don’t know how to treat them at all. They neither like you (unless you’re another zoner), nor do they hate you either.
Now we have this new zoner “spin-off” faction that’s more aggressive in nature, to me it seems regular zoners don’t like that because it’s going to “rock their boat” a little. It may lead to them being treated slightly different by other factions because of this new zoner Indie faction, which could spoil things a bit for money making zoners who just want to be left alone all the time.

Actually, the base in Baffin that is blocking Tau-29 is no longer wasting everything.

@GTB
Don't mix TAZ with indie nom-hunting zoners. The difference is huge. I mean, HUGE.

I find this new Zoner civil war most intriguing, actually. Finally gives them something to do besides fight Nomads.

Before long, everyone in the Omicrons, of every faction, Order, BHG Core, Corsairs, even other Zoners will be hunting every Zoner-/ZA ship they see. Soon after, people will rage quit the ZA because it's not fun to play their faction, because everytime they undock, they die. Then boom, faction dead, and this small cancer of Discovery is removed and goes into remission... Until some other group like this pops up, then repeat.
Yay, time to kill some Zoners again. Maybe we can get an NAP with both the Order and the Corsairs this time.
(I'm being a little facetious here, but you get my drift. What's happening here is almost a repeat of history from a few years ago - and will probably end the same way.)(06-04-2013, 09:19 PM)Tel-Aviv Wrote: it will be fun and I guarantee to make some rule violations.
Fixed that for you. While you're at it, why don't you study some history and lore, and maybe look at what happened the last TWO times some Zoners in the Omicrons tried to do things that weren't in accordance with Zoner lore? I'd suggest you ask the people that did it - but they're not around any more...

As said before, dont confuse the TAZ with indie nom-hunting zoners. The TAZ is an official faction, was given control of baffin by the devs and so can determine those allowed in it.
Heres a good suggestion: abide by the pentabarf and you wont be enema'd.

There is a group of troublemakers who figured out the passcodes for a few Zoner faction tags. Zoner factions change passwords for your tags.
