the base in bretonia - where the BPA crippled the base from within...
.. it seems that the base owner had complied with the RP - and forwarded the admin password to the BPA
.. the same password was then used to destroy the base
and i also remember people in that very community blaming the base owner for being "guillable" to trust the BPA. they blamed him for RPing the password - and put the responsibility to him for loosing his base.
now - if the ZA was to trust the order and their minions - and dismounted their defenses - and then maybe lost their bases - the very same players would then rather probably gleefully comment that it is their fault for trusting them.
with examples like the bretonian base - i would not expect any base owner to trust anyone - and that mistrust is playermade. - base owners might be a bit too paranoid - but thats really what the community has made them to be like.
edit:
i might have described the bretonian base thing too simplistic - so that is just how it LOOKED from the outside to ME.
