So, I'm a fairly new player, played a little back in 2008, then quit for some reason or another, and here I am... anywho..
I had a Junker before (back in 08) with Junker IFF and Junker Guard ID in a Salvager.. I've had hopes of doing the same. I've got my Junker rep and IFF, and salvager now, but I'm having some issues with Junker Guard. It seems since I've started doing Junker missions (as I bribed my way to junker rep) my Guard rep is dropping.
My Junker Guard rep was one full bar positive (not much, but hey); after a few missions, it's now down to dead neutral. What gives?
Now, I read somewhere, (several posts, maybe the wiki) that the Junker Guard ID is now for gallic junkers; does that mean the rep is different? I can understand the staff switching the id as an easy fix to gallics, but I'm at a loss as to how to arm my Salvager, and so far Junker missions are only lowering my guard rep, which is what I need to buy from weapons Puerto Rico. Am I missing something, or do I need to fly to Gallia and do missions for the Junkers there, only to have to return to Liberty to buy gear. I'm so confused, and haven't found a junker in game to ask (I'm on pretty late to early morning)
should I bother with Guard rep, or just attempt to find weapons for my ship from another faction (which seems pretty oorp to me)?
p.s. Are there Angles still in the game? Only been playing about 2 weeks or so now, but I've never seen one in the chat list.. perhaps more are needed to cover "off peak" hours

Doing Junker missions shouldn't lower your guard bar, it should be doing quite the opposite. I recently did that and it worked perfectly fine.
Did you fail some of the missions? Aborting or failing missions lowers your rep again.
Some time ago, Gallic Junkers used the Junker Guard ID, that is correct.
With the new mod version however, Gallic Junkers got their own ID & IFF and all Guard IDs have been removed.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, or if there's some rep hack against a faction I'm good with. I did Junker missions (only against xenos) from Rochester for several hours last night.. my Junker Guard rep starts to move a little, then goes back to dead neutral...
I did finally get some weapons from a freeport (and really have no desire to get anything like a razor or whatnot from the base, just annoyed I can't figure this out.. Off to try some more missions...

Do you have a Junker ID?
I'm guessing you've got an ID that rep hacks you neutral (every time you undock) to Junker guard.
Yeah, I've got the junker id, junker iff, and fly the salvager...still haven't been able to get the rep to move. The only real problem with it is not being able to buy all the goodies from the guard system.
