Were that this were so. We have been forbidden and ordered to never to do this, by Zoners. Therefore since you still allow the Order to do this, it is OUR business. You have been accessories to enough of OUR losses that we ... have decided enough is enough.
And while you may feel your announcement show cooperation, it does not show compliance.
You stated that you were mourning over losses you have suffered. Perhaps these losses could have been avoided if you yourselves had not allied with the Order, and allied them to stage their attacks from your bases.
As I said before, how many more of your people must perish, due to your own actions.
Comply - or die.

Both parties have told you that we don't care what you do at Freeport 11 so long as you respect our people.
If you have issues with Zoners that have forbidden you certain Freeport 11 rights, we don't know them. There are none here.
There is no Zoner Alliance. We do not represent all Zoners. Why is this topic still open for discussion?
This is God. I have decided to speak to you directly, rather than through my agent, the holy Max.
Every Tuesday shall be fish taco Tuesday.
I was told by a guy named Steve that you refuse to cooperate with My will. Nothing you say to the contrary will dissuade me of my notion that Steve's position is the end all be all.
Conform or die.
Conform and die.
You have eighteen hours to comply. Then die.
GOD HAS SPOKEN.
What are you guys flailing about? This thing isn't transmitting.
Zoners who claimed to represent all Zoner interests in the Omicrons gave this order. If you have disbanded your Zoner Alliance and your Zoner Defense Forces, then I suggest that you find someone who still has some remnant of authority. That you have chosen to do this of your own accord ... is simply your tough luck as far as we are concerned.
We will respect your people when they show us the same respect that they have shown the Order. Since they do not do that, and you continue to insist on not doing that... again.
It would be melodramatic to simply point at the clock in the corner that shows you have
28 hours remaining.

As said, the Zoner Alliance has crumbled.
You are no longer forbidden to do this.
Currently, we have no power to stop either side from staging attacks, and we risk attacks by either side if we do not co-operate with them.
Furthermore, we no longer consider it our business what either side does before or after they leave our Freeport.
Your transmission spoke of compromise and co-operation. You got it. You spoke of unfairness. In return we gave you the same rights we gave The Order.
If you want compliance, send a transmission to your own faction.
Still, no answer, but I must try.
Now, as I asked before, what right is afforded to The Order, which is not available to you? Please answer my question, so we can reach some compromise and show you our neutrality.

To call the A] so that they attack all zoners, press 4
Max DeVirgo: Ahoy you Zoner rotten scum. You shall let the Bounty Hunters Core dock on your station! Zoners (chorus): Oh Max, thou art before us. Thy people shall be permitted to enter our Freeport freely. Max DeVirgo: What! How dare you refuse my command. You now have 48 hours to comply! Zoners (chorus): Oh Max, thy fury is unmatched. Thy people shall be allowed to dock as thy people please. Max DeVirgo: Fools! How dare you deny me access to your stations. You now have 38 hours! Zoners (chorus): Oh Max, thrice your anger has struck us. Open shall our gates be to your people. Forever shall you be given the right to dock, undock, dock, undock, and dock upon our stations. Max DeVirgo: So... the Zoners still insist on denying me permission to dock and undock from Freeport 11. Max DeVirgo: Congratulations Zoner whores. You now have 20 hours...and counting. Zoners (chorus): Woe are we who must suffer at the hands of one so great and mighty!
I am surprised, honestly, that you have been almost reasonable in your response. Almost too late, but almost reasonable.
Actually, you do still have power. It's just that for now it suits you not to use it. We of the Guild Core have been able to function quite nicely in the Omicrons without utilizing your Freeports to stage ... well, much of anything.
The only thing that would be resolved by following your rationale is that we would start the cycle all over again. You'll move on, off to Baffin or Gran Canaria, following your Zoner wanderlust - probably within a couple of weeks, if past history serves me well.
Then some other, self-appointed leader of the Zoners here, whose not answerable to anyone else but his own conscience, will turn around and do exactly the same damn thing that your folks have been doing to us for the last couple of years. And we start this cycle all over again. No more - it is time for the cycle to be broken, once and for all.
I really and to be perfectly honest with you couldn't care less whether or not we have the right to stage from your facilities in Delta, Kappa, 74, or Theta. Not since we've proven that we don't need them. But what I do care about is whether or not my sworn enemies have that right. So you can consider this ... friendly persuasion. Or even something perhaps more ... unfriendly. Good business and military tactics do sometimes feel to the receiver as if they were extortion.
In any event, unlike so many other actions recently regarding your people from others, there is no personal animosity towards you or your people from us. There is only our mission - and that your actions are aiding our enemies, and that you are actively acting as their allies now. I suggest, in the strongest terms, that you acquiesce and comply.
Pushkin -
You're a fool. And you stand on a station that is already battered and beaten. Continue to act the fool, and you will find yourself standing on empty space.
Oh, and you can't tell time, can you.
24 hours remain.

Frankly put, we could not care whether you stage off our Freeports either. To be even more frank, we do not care whether you use that right or not.
That right is given to you, just as it is given to anyone else.
Please stop trying to ask for special treatment. We Zoners value our neutrality and hence we will treat you the same as The Order, or any other faction.
There is no alliance with The Order simply because they can dock at our base. If an alliance was because one faction could dock at another's base, we Zoners would be allied with every faction in Sirius. We are not allied with every faction in Sirius. Simple logical progression.
Your rights are the same as anyone else at the Freeport, unless of course I am missing something. In which case, it brings me to my original question.
Now, as I asked before, what right is afforded to The Order, which is not available to you? Please answer my question, so we can reach some compromise and show you our neutrality.
