Clearly the usual suspects are using this thread to break Rule 0.0, and push their OORP hate agenda. I'll request this thread is locked now. Before that, to make it very clear:
If we allowed the excuse they might be away, unavailable, on vacation or any other variation of that, it would be used at every stage as an OORP defense against any sort of INRP consequence. Someone wants to siege you? Just say you're not around. Immune. Plot wants to be implemented? Sorry, I'm not available. You blew up my trade ship... how dare you, I was afk and not being around gives you immunity. There are oorp and inrp mechanisms available he could and should have used. This is especially true as he's unlikely to be away as the base is still constructing the platforms, and regular shipments are clearly still arriving - as others have said already, either he's foolishly given his masterpass away to someone who isn't checking forums, or he isn't checking forums. Either way, its a legal violation, regardless of why it was undertaken. The law is pretty clear; if you break a law, you get sieged and/or fined.
In the meantime, INRP messages are available to him. He was contacted for a reason; not required by our law, by the way - as soon as a base violates the law we can blow it away, we almost always chose to communicate with them and try fines instead - precisely because I am very well aware of how much effort it takes to build and maintain a POB, being that I maintain a great many - all in compliance with RP and Law. Roleplay is Roleplay. I'm afraid he's broken the law and has not responded to any messages, therefore we don't really have a choice in any case. RP is RP, and we've got to follow what military orders are for such circumstances.
As to giving them more time: for a Core 2 POB, the server rules require the player be given 24 hrs of advanced warning by means of the POB Siege Declarations thread. He was given more than double the required time. And he still has time to respond. If you're concerned and you have some for of contact with him, I suggest you tell him to read the forum and deal with it ASAP, or task someone else to do it. Since no rules are being violated, I suggest you all either find a way to contact the guy and actually help him or take your hate-train elsewhere.
Devs. Please lock thread.
