Hello mr Dakun,

This is captain Virgil Redline, better known as 'the hypocite'. I was the one who asked your captain to get that obese thing out of restricted space.

Let me tell you why things went the way they went. First off, the ship in question was a capital class warship, armed to the teeth. You can call it a research vessel, as can I call my Dreadnought an icecream van. Fact remains, it is what it is.

Secondly, Alaska is horribly, very super hyper off limits for all ships but Liberty Navy and the LSF. This includes Zoners. We have enough trouble in that sector without Zoner warships running around poking their noses where they do not belong. God forbid they get infected by the resident homocidal alien population.

Thirdly, the captain in question didn't exactly say much. His ship was sitting still, even after more and more navy ships showed up. Also, tellling us you will leave in 1 hour hardly means that you can invite yourself to remain in restricted space for 1 hour. If I were to walz in Omicron 74 in a carrier and sit there telling all Zoners to leave me alone for another hour, would they?

As for the warning. I gave 10 seconds for the ship to start moving. AFTER I had asked it to leave earlier. It didn't. I didn't order it to reach the jumphole in 10 seconds like you suggest. Even Pizza Delivery can't go that fast, let alone a Juggernaut. I asked it to start moving away and it didn't.

So we made it leave the hard way. It's a shame things went down like they did. But do NOT enter restricted space and ask for leniency just because you think you have a right to be there. Because you don't.

Virgil Redline
