Freeport 9 and Yaren

[Dab]

As a quick note, both of these stations have come under attack by large, varied forces.

Freeport 9 is apparantly damaged inRP.

Yaren is fine.

The difference?

Seems the Yaren thread was simply locked.

Corsairs attack Zoners. Zoners side with Outcasts. Corsairs get Omega stuff, lose Omicron stuff. Sensible considering the complete deadlock things are in. Yes?
So, what's the real difference?

Should Yaren not be as damaged as Freeport 9?

Yaren was attacked by others who powerplayed it when the Corsairs weren't around to defend it.

Freeport 9 being damaged was roleplayed by the Zoners themselves.

I know of no version of powerplaying that says it can be done to one's self.

If there was a thread where the Corsairs claimed to damage a Zoner station, it'd be locked as well. I thought I remembered seeing one, but could not find it. If you find it, PM it to me.

There was a thread where I made a comment that FP 9 appeared to have been damaged, with the biodomes being towed away. That thread was locked. However, that's also because it was in flood and people started getting stupid in it - I did not participate in that battle, just watched the Zoners get blown up and the station get attacked.

Again, just to clarify, the Corsairs did not claim damage to the station - I did, just as a witness. (Someone shooting a dozen heavy mortar rounds into something is going to cause SOME damage, after all...)

Very shortly AFTER I posted that thread, the threads came out that the Zoners were bailing out of FP 9 and O-74. (I'm catching hell because the BHG| wants to buy O-74. The [IND] wants to buy FP 1 and FP 9, and no one has complained about that...)

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

I believe that everything can happen if all involved factions agree about the outcome.

Corsairs did not agree with Yaren being raped.

So you're posting about it because....?

Cause posting gets me a +1? And I WAS trying to be helpful here, actually...
(I found the thread easily, since I was the one that started it...)

And when was this.. Cause I found a profound lack of RP post about Freeports getting killed by you, at least in the last week..

You cannot damage or destroy an installation without the owning faction agreeing upon that.

Yes, and without doing so, its called powergaming and its wrong, which so many attacking zoners forget. They think just because 'OMG I PEWEEEEDDD UR STATIONS WITH 154182309172 BATTLESHIPZ AND 58129037410923874 BOMBERZ ITZ DEADZZ NOWS OLOL!OL!OL!!!!!!111'

It just depends on how the faction takes it.

They can either say, "Look, fourteen Mortar shots. We'll just paint over it."

Or rather, "SO MANY DEAD PEOPLE. OMFG."

Freeport's 9 population of <strike>150</strike> 100 will be mourned.

The difference was that the side which owned the Freeport-9 decided for themselves the outcome of it.

Whilst the side which owned Yaren didn't decide anything regarding it's outcome.

How you which to interpretate those facts are up to you. I'm not going to share my opinion because it will get this thread locked.

This. If the general corsair concensus was that Yaren was damaged, then that'd be cool. It could be RP'd that way.

The Zoner community chose to RP FP9 as damaged. That's up to them. Nobody told them they had to.
