' Wrote:IN RP, Fine. Your character (god knows her) is trying to put some pressure, or is just curious about some international laws that no one ever heard about, but might exist. It's fine.
You commenting on the IC Feedback thread that international laws side with GMG. So, what international laws?
My character is an unnamed GC sympathizer in the news field. Obviously a well-known GC can't go around as a reporter. But it's safe to say every single pirate faction in Sirius is going to have sympathetic reporters as well as reporters on their payroll to ask the questions they want to throw out. This happens extremely often in real life. News is a money business.
Also yes, she is trying to do nothing more than put pressure on IC. I'm not actually looking for an international law with my reporter. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they just ignore her. I said those things just to get them out and get people thinking about them.
I commented here that real life international law sides with GMG in this, but that was in response to one of your posts, not to IC.
' Wrote:So GMG could simply made the deal, and stop selling Fuel if they decided to shut down everything, giving a lot of loses to IC? Brillant move for IC leaders. A contract for a percentage of a sell with no minimum is very risky, with the HUGE amount of money IC invested on Okinawa,
See Prowler's post on that matter. There was no way that GMG could stop mining the fuel in Okinawa without massive backlash, not to mention bankruptcy. H-fuel is their business. Stop doing business and you lose your company. GMG has been mining H-fuel efficiently and reliably for hundreds of years. There is nothing to suggest they'd stop anytime soon. I would think even IC would know that.
' Wrote:I'd believe they at least demanded a minimum to fulfil, bringing up this point is like bringing up some international laws, don't you think? It looks dumb to argue about something that doesn't exist, I do kinda fail with this, because I'm contradicting myself, you can't argue about things that doesn't exist, otherwise, the first one to call it is the winner, aka international laws, aka minimum.
If they wish to say they had demanded a minimum, okay. That's great. But GMG is still selling H-fuel, they can still get IC a profit. You're acting as if GMG is making so little money that IC would break from them completely and financially. If GMG were making that small amount of money, the entire Sirius sector would be in a massive fuel depression.
You're right, it is stupid to argue about something that doesn't exist.. I came here concerned about them contradicting something that -did- exist.
' Wrote:Also, I'm not saying KNF is stopping all the GMG sells, what I'm saying is that the sells that used to move through the Honshu gate are now stopped, of course, in RP, both parties agreed on that by their actions.
If through unlawful factions or through jump holes they still sell fuel in the same level, is up to discussion, I personally doubt that the GMG is selling at the same rate that without the embargo. Also, GMG knows the Jump Holes, the outcasts know them too, the corsairs know them too, the hogosha, the farmers, the list goes on, jump holes are not a secured lane though.
I'm definitely not saying GMG sells at the same level as before, but they get enough out for Liberty to stay afloat, and their pockets to remain full of cash.
As for the jumpholes, the Hogosha and FA may also know their location, but you've got GC, BD, and GMG all working together to make sure that H-fuel makes it out to the customers. Those three can easily get H-fuel passed the Hogosha and FA forces there. Not to mention the GC have got the OC in line when it comes to Okinawa. OC do not shoot GMG in Okinawa if they want to be welcomed there by the GC. OC know if they leave GMG alone in Okinawa, the GMG and BD leave them alone, unless they are wondering where they shouldn't (near Fujisawa/Sendai). So Hogs/FA are dealing with 4 factions (2 very strong) along those jumphole paths. I'd say they are secure -enough- for the GMG to use.
' Wrote:That's not what I can tell from your IN RP post in the IC communication, call me biased, but I won't believe it's just a coincidence that you mention those international laws here and there.
Mentioned in both places, but in completely different context. I'm not looking for IC to give me any international laws.
