I bet that the player base is the navy guardian rep, what usually when we start the game is RED (hostile). Like I made a suggestion (not that somebody care about that suggestion) all player bases should have a minimal range of 10k from a capital planet for new players safety. I had this issue in New Berlin, was very pissed of but had nothing to do. There are few tactics to get out BUT if the base/turrets shoot you down while you are getting out and can't do nothing (that few sec. when you dock/get out) then indeed impossible to avoid them.
Another suggestion is that developers take out this few seconds or implement the new 10k distance rule for player bases from capital bases.
Kusari has more action the Bretonia has, in Bretonia only the pirates are in action and traders who go trough the system.
I even made a test, Rheinland and Kusari are friends so I could go there with my VHF ship without making trouble, but what was interesting, a player wrote with pink color to me "get out" I checked the player and he was in NY system, wasn't with me in party... how he wrote in pink to me "get out" and why? This will be a mystery for me!
