How about you take the chance to split up the Zoner ID a bit. Give it the same properties as the Freelancer ID to show that they are more independent and more individual-ish. They can even shoot each other.


Do it.

Well this is like throwing a *you know better* in a fan but I like it.
It would fix some problems and create new ones.
How and who would control different official and unofficial Zoner groups that "claim" stuff for themselves?
How to act when group A claim FP X and group B dislikes it and pew them when both of them can dock at it and claim it as their own base?
Zoner question is easy to solve but requires a lot of work from Dev side- assign few new Zoner IDs and IFFs and dividing all zoner bases among them, however this is other shit in the fan because many zoners wont agree witch bases comes under different IDs/IFFs ownerships- officials should have some choice to agree among themselves, also few zoner stations should be "Generic" based on neutral or freelancer base ownership- so none could claim them.
Also the Generic Zoner ID should allow no caps, only the specific let say regional zoner IDs should allow caps.

Via ingame events. Battle for territory if you have to. Winner wins. Loser loses.

I am smelling the stench of sarcasm and irony and I'm not sure if it's because of me not taking a shower for three months or because of this thread. And I shower daily.

But, regarding the battle for territory, I can say that this is entirely not zonerish at all.

Still, giving different zoner IDs with slight differences based on region could be something. I mean, we already have that system unoficially, for the official counterparts. The Phoenix are using the generic Zoner ID for the moment, OSI have their own ID to suit their needs as well as the TAZ.

Not sure if that something something would fix problems or further them though

It could be more arguing/talking over each other for territory.

Hey, at least it would give Zoners SOMETHING to do.

Why? Just because you don't know how to play one?

Spare me.

Zoners are 1 faction by vanilla coding, people should stop stating their claims to the contrary as though they are fact. If you want to play "do whatever you want individual", go play a freelancer. Thats the name of the game after all.
