Quote:Yet the next month was ruined by being overshadowed by the fact that someone moved the 3rd base 25k below where it was at, neutralizing it totally without a fight. The inconvenience to other players was cited as being bad for the game, too bad to be allowed. Since the war on POB's continues, and you can't even build a secret base in a nebula unless it's convenient for the opposing faction, I guess I'm out. To me, that is just an excuse to save their faction grief, what a weak excuse to protect their own side with admin magic. I was told this has happened to others in the past, I was unaware of those cases, and wouldn't have likely agreed with those decisions, but I found no precedent or rules against it.
As everyone knows, I am a well renowned POB hater. So to put your mind at rest, I was the one that dropped your Base down 20k.
The person who reported it to me isn't, as far as I know, a Gaian Player. I don't have any Gaian Ships and have never been a Member of any Gaian Faction, so I am afraid it had nothing to do with 'protecting my own'.
Your Base was blocking a JH, which has been not acceptable for years.
Yes, in the early days they were accepted and people were expected to 'suck it up', just like the NPC WPs that were surrounding a lot of JHs (I got blown up by them quite a few times in the early days whilst exploring). But over time the NPC WPs were removed and 'blocking' POBs were either removed or the JHs were moved (as in the case of Golden Coin).
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
