I must report a grave breach of protocol from a ship purporting to be a Zoner calibrating his ship's IFF computer.
As you know, we tolerate our allies 'training' with our rookie pilots in order for them to properly adjust their computers. We ask that they hand over any pilots that happen to eject, and that they conduct these activites in Sigma-19, away from our tradelanes in Sigma-13.
I received a tip-off about a ship firing upon GMG ships in Sigma-13. Upon arrival I came upon one "SOLIDWING" - Universal IFF, ZOner Guard Tag, Rhineland Transport.
This pillock had obviously decided he could act as he pleased. After firing a few shield-lowering shots into him he decided to depart for Sigma-19 - taking the GMG pilots with him!taking the GMG pilots with him!
My bomber is not equipped with CDs to intercept. I followed the ship and observed him travelling to the Omicron Beta jump hole - where he departed for Outcast space with our pilots as hostages!
This is a grave crime being committed here by one of our so called 'allies'. In light of this I would like to request the following from the Guild Masters:
1) A immediate ban on 'rep-fixing' - persons wishing to calibrate their computers must register with us so they can be properly vetted, and made aware of our conditions for doing this.
2) If this might be considered too harsh, then at least a communique sent to the Zoner Council outlining our conditions for Zoners calibrating their IFFs in our space (ie: done only in Simga-19, and hand over pilots on request).
3) An immediate bounty to be placed on SOLIDWING for kidnapping and destruction of GMG property!
