I haven't had the pleasure of role playing with you guys just yet, even though I'm usually behind an indie AI myself. My only concern is that you seem to be getting ta bit carried away. Dropping bases too close for comfort for some factions. Tread carefully, or I think your time here will be short lived.
I talked to Vante yesterday on TS and we got to the topic of [AI] and what happened, and my opinion on it.
I have to say that the [AI] action in S13 has created an interesting situation. I hadn't logged on my GMG| ship for a long time and there was a real boost in GMG activity. That's definitely positive. S13 should have some fighting and the base undeniably triggered it.
The fights between GMG and AI generally were good. Both sides won some, lost some. Some fights went better, were fairer, some were not. I think the direct confrontations between GMG and AI as the main opponents in this fight were not bad at all.
The RP I received as my GMG| ingame was good. Especially in the early engagements when the AI outnumbered GMG attackers, there was very good rp prior/after the engagements. A kudos here to Di'taraAlpha, but others also rped nicely and allowed/forced rp that was more than "engagibugn hostile base and defend0rz" (as is the norm with bases).
I also love the way you updated your lore. Damn cool to develop a faction's lore actively and document it like you did.
Something the AI has no influence on but that was triggered by the base in S13 was some base related stupidity (Hessian-Rheinland-Bdragon-GMG-GC clusterf.... with total randomness). But okay, bases attract it.
My only "criticism" is that the irp post to the GMG was showing some trolly arrogance that actually was perceived on an oorp level. The fast raising count of players on the Anti-AI side is directly linked to the perceived arrogant stance. Displaying an attitude that is considered "arrogance" has always the same consequence in Disco: many people gather (for oorp reason and motivation) to "put them back into the place where they belong". Needless to say, this is not the best motivation, nor are the best roleplayers attracted by this.
For future enjoyable rp and pews, I think you could improve there and perhaps avoid this problem by doublechecking rhetorics.
About abandoning S13 and moving shop to S17: oorply, I would say a good call. The Hessian-Rheinland conflict that was moved from Omegas to your S13 base really did not belong there. S17 is out of ZoI for both. S13 just attracted a little too many people. With a more limited range of participants and a base in the periphery and with less visibility, I think the enjoyable interaction (be it shooting and/or talking) gets a better chance.
I don't know how the S17 rp will proceed, but I somehow hope that we can keep this conflict.

Moved this into the right AI faction's thread for you - Summer
On the one side, afking in space is not good, especially if your group's added to Faction Activity list.
On the other, following RP was really AI-sh, noncompromisable and unhumanic.
Will be interesting to see "concequences".

Not while you were waiting in Dresden, but in Stuttgart before beginning of interaction we just saw you flying in space for 15 minutes.
