If/when this happens, whats to stop indie pirate factions from just grabbing rogue/hacker ids and doing whatever they want? If theres nowhere for indie pirates to dock in liberty, why couldn't they just take some ID's for the sake of having places to base? Before my time, VR was a LH official faction. VR- and LH~ did not get along. It took an admin decision and a lot of bickering for the two factions to be split up for the betterment of the then community.
Whats to say something like this won't happen again. Maybe with an indie rogue faction? Hell, it already has happened with California.Blue and his band of furry freak brothers.
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
