In the way of hunting Corsairs sitting next to you.
I saw this recently done by NG, with a great force.
But i had to do some kind of backyard cleaning.
It is a new experience to see outcasts vessels undock from yanagi and pirating a gmg vessel in front of a zoner destroyer.
Next to them was another pirate vessel i tryrd to stay neutral.
Maybe the nearby presence of the Wilds inflicted some.
' Wrote:Heck, me and my fellow players know a lot of players are abusing the Zoner ID.
On the other side some players are overstepping their gameplay.
asking this only question, What zoner name are you?
if the ZR think we will go away they are mistaken, i will make the Sigma 13 blockade look like a pinic if they dont respond to our requests for answers.
all the NovaPG are asking for is that if you want to stay neutral, dont as zoners put a bounty on people, as it stands at this very moment the only Zoner group who have complete entry to the NovaPG AOI are the Taz they are true zoners.
@NovaPG:
Zoner destroyer 'Prodigy' reporting in.
The last days i was roaming around Sirius.
During my cruise through Kusari space i was greeted by a Blood Dragon, designation Telicaster.
As i stated, this was a stuipid some called pirated.
And please don't shout on me.
My nav-console is already broken.
@Myriadic - Sorry, but I thought we were discussing the why Zoners might be assaulted and OORPness. I believed I gave a perfectly reasonable reason why Zoners might find themselves being attacked, and that there are a number of Zoners who are not what they seem - which is a very good reason to attack them.
If my previous post was in the wrong place then I have no problems with it either being removed or deleted
@Joe: Send a little communique to the Brotherhood and we could probably tighten up Gamma along with the rest of the Benitez's. Then when a Zoner asks why, mention the name of that assassin and how he came in with a Zoner tag and Zoner ID. I would go as far as to contact the Zoner council about their slowness to deal with a group of trained assassins in their midst (which is how you should phrase it, to give it effect...).
@Myriadic: Please use the edit button in future...
@BulldogNK: Please don't bring up that old chestnut YET again, its embarrasing enough as it is to be part of a faction that forced the NovaPG to bring out all its members in to a system we RPed well to go to.
Also, the ZR seem to have a very negatory presence in game at the moment...

Joe brings up a few good points about Zoner neutrality. It should be earnt, not assumed. The reason I am weary of Zoner traders is because they can dock on both Corsair and Outcast bases. There are many times that this is good for business. it also allows a level of flexibility that cannot be gained by any other affiliation. Now, what do the Zoners sacrifice for this? Their fear for the Corsairs and the Outcasts, both "nations" with massive military capebility is what they sacrifice, but this isn't reflected in RP here, for a very good reason. There is no need to fear these two sides, because:
1) They are too busy shooting each other to care.
2) Zoners have always been considered neutral and have never in the history of this server been shot up.
3) A well planned assault on a Zoner vessel in the middle of space does not constitute a silent victory like it would otherwise, as the person can always use the obligatory escape pod.
These differences are key in the difference between Zoner neutrality, and the neutrality they actually possess.
Zoner neutrality; where the Zoners are fearful of both sides and do their utmost to keep both happy, shipping them both equal amounts of stuff.
Their neutrality now; where the Zoners have almost unlimited freedoms and can fall back on the "I'm a Zoner, you can't shoot me!" excuse.
This is why I don't like all those traders going around with a Zoner ID and tag. Its almost like the neutral ID in that most think twice before opening up the plasma tubes.
