Yes, I know, file a player request.
I don't want to file an invisible request.
I am not using ff77cc Karst pink. Full serious mode.
With pretty much the entire Core capital fleet in Bastille, this event is over.
I have been involved in this event exclusively on the Zoner side but I still have to say, sending Core caps to Bastille for essentially taking part in this conflict is totally unfair.
Are literally dozens of threads detailing the myriad engagements not enough to adequately define Zoners as "an organization considered hostile by the Core" - which would allow them to be engaged?
I'm not talking about violations like docking on the Freeport after shooting Zoners, or engaging without RP, or anything like that.
I'm talking only about Core ships being bastilled for no other reason than following through with the declaration of hostilities.
"- Can attack lawfuls, unlawfuls, quasi-lawfuls and ships which belong to a house or organisation considered hostile by The Core within their zone of influence."
(from the Core ID)
" Nowhere in your ID does it allow you to attack a Zoner ship[...]"
(from the sanction post)
????????
I freely admit that I stopped asking Core ships to "move out of the NFZ" before shooting them on my Zoner ships, and just the same I completely expect to be shot by Core on my Zoner ships, as I'm sure most everyone else involved would.
Have there been many more rule violations than usual because of this event, and salz brought about by unbalanced fights? Yes, of course.
Is it worth it for something that brought a torrent of activity, huge amounts of roleplay and new interactions between unexpected groups? In my opinion, absolutely. This event has been amazing so far and I'm sure I'm not the only one who's really been enjoying it.
But with the Core fleet gone, it's pretty much over prematurely. I implore you to reconsider this decision.
I also strongly suggest unbanning Lyth for the time being as it's been made almost impossible for the faction to defend itself inrp'ly or oorp'ly.
