Zoner/Zoner Guard IDs - FraserTE - 07-06-2009
My last reply
Over all this post fails i have a few preferences for a few routes i prefer.
Even if this gets implimited
Ill just get a slave liner slap a junker id on it and still do the same routes
Witch are quite diverse i dont land in house space mutch for the most part but i do travel through it ill just take a hit of 400 cargo
So go ahead implement this and watch the wave of junkers come.

I fly ZBT, 99% of my routes are between zoner bases only. I land sometimes on House planets to sell something and buy some suppliers for our bases. I am not House citizen, but I am not enemy. I don't see any reason to don't go there. I am foreigner in Liberty similar like Bretonian in Liberty.
If you want the reason why I go to House space, I give you four of them: Freeport 2, Ames, Bethlehem, Erie. How can I get there and don't entering House space?
I agree with Jinx. Who are powertraders? People who make big money by trading? Zoners are all powertraders then. They don't fight, so they can only trade. In this meaning I am powertrader. I don't like fighting, so I am trading.
I made big money, so I fixed my rep and I bought biggest Zoner trade vessel. When I was poor, I flew small ship, when I got rich I bought bigger and biggest in the end. I loved BTW but I wanted to fly something else. Now I will sell ZBT maybe and buy another big trade ship, to check how it works. I have money, so I can do it. It is normal I guess. Like in RL.
If you don't want people flying ZBT, just nerf it to 4500 cargo space and put the same limit into ZG ID. I don't care about that.
What is wrong with many traders around? Pirates have more fun and occasions to rob someone.
Here are so many rules, restrictions, conventions. Zoners are bad, Junkers are bad... I am tired of it. Where is fun in it?

If traders get nerfed, so do the pirates.
Thats my opinion:P

Please, just please.
Go back and actually read the proposal.
The proposal makes specific allowances for every one of the bases you cite. The change would NOT prohibit a ZBT from entering House space to reach those bases. It would only prohibit docking on other House bases in the course of your trade route.
@ Mythical. Epic fail, eh? When was the last time you formulated a proposal with input from dozens of diverse individuals, reached a basic consensus, and then spent days working on that proposal for presentation for nothing more than a bloody community vote?
Whatever your vote, I hope it was informed by the content of the proposal itself.

Ok this is me not drunk talking
Everybody starts out in the star flier. We work our way up we buy big trade ships after alot of hard work.
Evuentally we trade non stop The fastest route i can think of that takes 30 minutes take me an hour because im always getting kicked even with a good ping............
Most profit i have made one way is 17 million pure profit. too me 45 minutes
And that is Being a Zoner Smuggler.
There is to many damn restrictions as there is if u wana be a house trader go be a house trader but
Zoners get hit the hardest while pirating its quite diverse where we can go.
And guess who pirates me the most ? Outcast And Rogues
Mainly Phate when he is on but none the less dont give me restictions and i do rp my part. Very well.
Ima Drunk Smuggler and i enjoy it.

I know what the proposal is, but thank you Sir for explanation.
If I can't land on House bases, it means I am "persona non grata" in house space.
Why can't I land on base if I am not hostile, even politically. I could understand restriction to not land on specific faction base, but the whole house bases, even civilian capital planets, or on eg. OSC, DSE, Planetform planet ? Why? Am I enemy? If so, then I shouldn't enter the house space.
This universe become crazy more and more. The rules should be logical and based on RP, otherwise it will rise reports only. I voted NO, but it is not important for the decision process.

Each day i cant read up .... its boring .... i don't see point here ... you don't want people trading with zoner ships ... because you are zoner or something ... that would be like ... any official faction ban Indy from having their ships and reducing their weapon slots ... i think its stupid ... its all ok like now ...
I trade from to Zoner bases ... and i trade when i need for ammo ... i do run or two and send cash to all my chars per 1mil or 2mil ... depends ... maybe later i will go and trade for BS ... for now ... i am still thinking do i need it in Minor ... because BHG cap spam there ...

Ya the only power traders are the ppl who wanna lolcapwhore or lolcapspam like alpha
I had 3 frigging bhbs chase me from the freeport to omicron minor and blow up my carrier....

so frigging what no matter what u do there is going to be power traders.
I just found a new route today that is a 5 step route that i like guess how much cash i made in just under 2 hours ? 60 million and i don't use trade lanes.. and im not a power trader i trade once every few days to keep my ships loaded with repair money.
