As I told Banderas, yes, this is a sanction. Rheinland has been attacked, almost non-stop, by various pirates. One of the silliest of which are the Corsairs (GC, BD, and Outcasts are even more silly, and we've gotten a few of those as well ). Why? Because they attacked Rheinland once before. Had a great big RP event over it, and now it's in Server history. Corsairs didn't make it past Holstein in Frankfurt. Their fleet got routed, naught left but a handful of fighters and a lot of scrap metal. Plus, Corsairs are hostile to -everyone- in Rheinland. Even the pirates. I can see Corsairs chasing Outcasts. I -cannot- see them going into the heart of one of the most hostile Houses on the server to do it.
This, coupled with the report of one of that party -docking on NB after shooting officers thereof-... I got the names of the party, took them all one by one, put them back on Crete, and shifted the reps to die-hard Corsairs.
Now, once I can take the tools again, I will switch back some of the neutral factions, such as Hogosha and Zoners. However, the next Corsair raid into New Berlin that I see, I will -not- be happy with. And if one docks on what is supposed to be a hostile base, rest assured there will be money and guns taken for it.
This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren
