Yeah, Mal, I'll put it forth to the CoZ when we re-convene. In the meantime, I can do some more research and get more evidence. I invite all Zoners to do this. (cargo scans, guncam footage, etc)
I've actually got a couple of irons in the fire, the other being Gallia which IMO, will be a pretty easy sell.

Hello TAZ-manianz;
The Colony is still in good shape. However, our Mining Transport has took serious damage couple weeks ago from Wildes in Omega 47, as well the pilot captain of the Mining Transport. He suffered serious injuries and still inconscience since the day of the incedent. May Eris bless him and us in our future paths.
Since we didn't had enough credits at this time to buy a new "Transport", we sold half of what we have on the Auxium. We made good profit but not enough. We asked for loans from other Traders, but they had sound unsure, so we didnt mind them again. However, a master of the "jedi" by the name of: Yoda-[T]; helped us regain our credits to purchase a new and better transport called, Zoner "Whale" Border World Transport. Furthermore, we have made plenty of credits to re-buy our "stuffs" that we sold. Slowly we are getting back to the paste. Thanks to Yoda and many thanks to Eris on blessing him with generosity for us.
Also, I'm having difficulties on passing through Liberty with the Auxium, even with permissions of LN's. We are not an act of War, we are a peaceful colonized citizens of a second generation that was lost 150years ago. If this continues, I'll have to make a request to the Zoner Architechs to make a "non-looking" War Vessel. Hmmm *(gasps)*.....snyways, thats all for now, Tazzies.
After reported NFZ issues in Baffin, my vessel proceed to patrol and dock witin our system. Ryuujin Jakka again was camping within 5k of Shasta, when asked to move to 5k, he did so promply. At which time I proceeded to mention this was our Homeworld, abit different then a normal Zoner sector and the reasons why, that his loitering was upsetting the delicate balance within our space and useing our base and the NFZ of our system to hide was not an appropiate thing. I suggested Freeports and other Zoner bases. Shortly after Camera guy showed up, not long afterwards the other aggressor appeared on Long range scanners approacing the area. At this time Ryuujin Jakka made a statement as such.. All TAZ and Zoners where now not neutral to him, a few sentences later he made the statement our trade vessels where no longer safe. It is my humble opinion this news needs to be spread and this individual be no longer welcome in Baffin.
We're heading back towards Delta, it's a tad boring. Met up with a few idiots in Eagles who seemed determined to accuse me of "Harvesting" them. It took me almost an hour before the little sods would stop shooting me.
I think a course in Pineal stretching is required.
Also, some over-crazed lunatic in some crazy dreadnought came after me. Some sod called "Salazar Kithe". I mean, freakin' hell, I know I draw a bit of attention, but being told I would pose an "Interesting study" and having 2 squadrons of Sabres, followed by the most evil and dangerous looking battleship I've ever seen start chasing me... well, it's a bit over the top. I think Eris saved me to be honest, the Sabres all lost their engines, and the massive Dreadnought suffered an emergency (And probably unexpected) decompression.

Glad you were able to drive off the Eagle drivers. Harvesting? I'd say that's a stretch.
I have only heard tales of this Salazar Kithe. I have never met the man but I dare say that it may not be in my best interest although I'd be kool about it. I hear things that are well, quite gruesome. Harvesting captured females for reproduction and the such, tales of pointless murder and such. Who knows, maybe he'll hit you up for some credits and leave you be. Regardless, do be careful.
So fiddlin' about in our space makin my way home, I heard tell of that Big Bully feller. Well, bein the nearest to the squawks, and naturally a nosy prick in Delta. I made my way to see this bully for myself. As his luck ran exceptionally well, I never did manage to make even scanner range contact. My comms were flooded with his drivel, and the false accusations and self proclomations. I tried in ernest to get his cowardly carcass into a fighter or a bomber and come see me one on one. His little man syndrome seems to end at actually trying to prove he is made of the stuff that makes Men. He seems overly impressed with the value and amount of money one has. He equates lots of money with great power. We that fight for a living, and more so those of us that fight for the pure enjoyment of putting their skills to the test, and seeing what the other can bring. Knowing my bomber was little threat alone to a Bounty Hunter Battleship, I wandered till I had mapped a fair amount of Delta out. I was in contact with a few Legitimate Hunters, and numerous other pilots of Zoner and Corsair alike, and noone pulled so much as a glance during my flight. Not too long before I was forced to land and resupply after my long flight the Avenging.Angel arrived on the scene. We bantered back and forth with one Billy, apparently the ranking member of the Big-Bully. I finally in little expectation, but throw the stone to chance, offered any member of the crew that brought me Billy's head would recieve 25,000,000 and be allowed to keep the vessel, as I have no desire to own such a ship. We shall see what the crew is made of. It will only take one. I have since had many bottles of Captain's Private Stock. I have received word that my vessel is prepped for launch and my parking is only paid for a few more hours. So here it is, and I'm off to stumble back into my bomber and head for Shasta. See you out there.

Oh, Eris, not Big Bully again. Try this one on for size. I'd like to see Mon'Star go after him. How much fun it would be to watch two mad men slug it out.

Quite the day of events. I get reports of Corsairs, Order and BH's around FP11 so I dispatched the Freebird Delta and go out. It was worth the trip. While there were no violations when the Freebird was there, some were reported BEFORE the Freebird arrived. Once the fighting stopped, some Keepers showed up but kept a distance so the Freebird left.
Other than that, took Midori out in her new ride to do some charting. We'll be at the Estate tonight, probably at our lakeside cabin at the North end.
I finally got my Corvo fitted on Gran C. I thought to take a little time out to do a little sunning on the beaches, but it appears that's not going to happen, where's the hot spots? I'll make way for Baffin ASAP. From there I'm sure we'll have a clear idea of what is to be done.
