Not really though. Zoners can't offer escorts to anyone but Zoners, nor take bounties, nor do they have ID lines to attack bases. ZM's might be exceptions, and should be. You'd think of all those Zoner caps out there, some would wind up in the hands of the extremists.
And I was the Zoner Militia from Bering, and the main thing that sank that idea and why no one wanted to play it was they wouldnt allow the aquilon or neph. Thats how it always goes here, go have fun, but we'll find a way to make sure what you really want to do is impossible.
Can the BAF not handle themselves out in Exeter? Not even handle an Aquilon or Neph?
People frowning on the fun stuff is the toxicity that supresses activity! And all of this recent drama proves we need a system that both players and staff follow so no one can be accused of bias anymore. But the Devs will have to accept some less scripted events and give a little or this place will finally die from players actually being fed up.
If this is a private server, they should just be open about it, declare an end to any oversite or player development, and accept people will not play as much anymore as such. Or its time to open it up and loosen the reigns. You can't keep people here tricked chasing carrots on sticks forever. I love this place but am pretty much not playing anymore until they make some changes because after so many years, its almost maddening to go online still. But its ok, after 10 years we have a snac nerf and tons of rules on what we cant do, but only one activity added in that time, sci data mining. I suppose POB's were added yes, and they add a huge potential to the game. But more ideas on things to do in the game would do a lot to breathe reason into being active.
They never realized that when population dropped, the gaps filled by lots of player availability could be avoided. Now, without something real going on in game, there's little reason for vets to log anymore, or for new players to stay here.
