My Nomad can't fly a Zoner whale. My repsheet also isn't as good as the average Zoner's.
So unfair.
Again: Zoners =/= Nomads.
On the subject of silently engaging cloaked Nomads: Cloaks are planned to drop powercore as well as shields in the future. Also, you don't have to type back to retaliate.

Oh sure, let me just whisper the nomads that just uncloaked and started blasting away at me without a word, and tell them I'm not having any fun. I'm sure they will stop shooting. Yep.
And if you're flying anything smaller than a battleship, you probably won't even last long enough to do that. But np, np. Please, continue arguing for this like it's in any way balanced. /nerdrage off >_>
Ah, that is what it boils down to then, eh?
Not much you can do there. Deal with it. Have a problem, leave the Omicrons. Lorewise, that actually makes sense. There are a 'lot' of Nomads, who will not reason with you. There are a 'lot' of beings, which are superior to humans, and will kill you. They are limited to the Omicrons, because they will not show mercy, and will not give the chances you may get, if you encounter a K'Hara. Thats how things go.
The space is meant to be dangerous. And it is.
Balance? There is no balance in the Omicrons. And it makes sense to be built this way. You 'are' on the front lines.

Lorewise, it makes sense that I should have to talk to the nomads that just uncloaked next to my ship? Really? (And by the way, I'm talking about anyone in the Omicrons here, not just the Zoners, Haste. Not that it matters since I'm sure you will continue to take what I say out of context to further inflate your e-peen/smug cloud)
Yeah, fine, the nomads won't reason with me. I can see that. But if you're going to go there, you'd darn well better make it so everyone else can do the same to the nomads.

Never speak to me again. You're not worth the effort it takes to respond to your trolling, and so you go on ignore.

Nope, just trolls. Would you like to be added to the list?
Seriously. Give me a compelling argument as to why everyone should have to RP with the nomads before they can attack them, but the nomads can just shoot willy-nilly. I've yet to hear one, everything so far has been 'lolol the omicrons are dangerous and the nomads != Zoners deal with it'.

Because the admins have decided otherwise, bam.
Also the Order and Bounty Hunters can attack the Nomads freely. If you want to do that, get an Order or BHG Core ID.
The Order can use more Juggies.
There are a lot of factions besides the Order and Core in the Omicrons. Stop dodging the issue and tell me why you think those factions shouldn't be able to attack the nomads freely, if the nomads are free to attack them freely.
And 'because the admins say so' isn't a good reason. Are we not supposed to debate the admins' decisions? Isn't that part of the reason these forums exist?
I wpuld simply retconn all the nomads just to avoid seeing anymore " be order or core ". Not that nomads arent far from it anyway. Look, i dont know why theres a need to bring a lore excuse in this. A six year old will tell you its either you or them. Go tell the troops in afghanistan they cant shoot until being shot ( wait.. Thats the engagement rules already!). Didnt you say its a dangerious place?
