Well, the Zoners better bring their twenty-two turrets of neutrality then, because the infamous guys are getting acces to bigger toys.
you seem well informed on it! but you must jnow that the zoners have some ressources and some motherships too. perhaps it was 2 pilots cardamined! i heard in space that their is way on it, but not verified!
I realized this update now and may I say that I am totally shocked but not yet dumbfounded. If you do not like us to play then please just say it and we leave! But after all happening against us (it feels like that), well, perhaps you already made us to leave. There are other exciting and fullfilling things than wasting time in an aged game.

Thank you for noticing. We worked hard for being TOP5 active last months and this month at the top of the ranking. Did anyone even realize or care about that we work hard for this server and community? We help every single new player we meet, we tell him the rules, we tell him his possibilities, we help them to get into the game and we assist him to reach his goals no matter what he decides to do. Some of you (I am sure about that) now want to argue "You only want to recruit them"! Of course, but not mainly, some of them stay in the end because they like us, others go their own way (and we even help them with that!). Furthermore we advertised the game and made people starting to play it.

Really? Isn't it already the worst droprate of all Bretonian mining fields? Couldn't you find an easier way to slap us in our faces? Did you even realize how many people are mining there because of the already bad droprate? YES EXACTLY, nearly noone!!!
Alley Wrote:BMM|'s official faction ID now has a bonus of 4.0x on Raw Hydrocarbons instead of 3.0x.?
Are you kidding? Why not also grant us that 4x with us using the indie BMM IDs and having the worst mining spot already/now??

They are not his stations they are mine and the stations of my people. Perhaps it was just an obvious station of an uninvolved?
Why buffing a mining field where noone plays every day? Why not a field where a complete unofficial faction founded their RP on, to give them a chance, to develop, to become official, to keep on playing?
Wasn't the compromise already that we are not allowed a Core 4 base anymore and if we would want to must move the station? Why don't you just deny bases and mining for BMF?
It seems the Hydrocarbon route to Ney York is going to be erased. I am sorry Yoshida, it was fun.

There are already factories being built on the planet Sprague which will be run by BMM, the population of Sprague (which came from Leeds) will then have their jobs back. Over time we hope this RP to be recognised and perhaps swing the war around.
You talk about "new" and "big" production facilities and about "progress" to win the war but not about improving existing facilities?
Since the beginning of BMF we are working on exactly that, strenghten Bretonia, increase the industrial productivity, to equip our forces, to increase activity in Bretonia! But you restrict us and kill our fun to play again and again?
You want more RP? Why the War Cabinet then ignores posts like this and gives a damn on it?
Perhaps its just the right time for a change? To replace BMM and the Bretonians in charge?
Some facts to think about (Indie BMM ID and best droprate field): Time to fill a Hegemon with 2740 cargo space:
Dublin - Gold Ore: 2,02 minutes
Omega 11 - Uncut Diamonds: 3,18 minutes
Manchester - Hydrocarbon Ore : 15,49 minutes
(more data to come ...)
And now again all should be changed to make our game even worse for us? Well perhaps we deserve it as pirating us while mining is the only RP (attention: irony) we can offer. That RP that we extinguished.

That's actually an interesting idea. At the very least we should probably try to do something with CR, get some RP going, maybe a some pews. Might be refreshing. I'll propose it in HF HC.
I only glanced over your post. Please avoid rage posts, they are not constructive in anyway.
Either way, the reason the Manchester field mining is and was slow is to compensate for the expected travel time. Unlike Dublin's Gold Ore or others, the travel time to destination from the mining point is shorter. However, amusingly enough (or not), when we went over the BMM| request we considered all aspects except the indie ID (probably because we processed 15 perk requests in the span of an evening so bear with us thanks). It turns out you are unfairly overnerfed by accident so your multiplier will be brought up to 4.0x as it should.
Please don't accuse me of something I haven't done. I specifically said in the request for the buff that we would like both official and indie IDs to be buffed, It's not my fault that it hasn't been enacted.
The war cabinet sometimes misses comms, normally people "retransmit" (bump) them so we definitely don't miss them. Even if we did see that comm then I doubt we would even allow you to build another PoB...
PoBs are real activity killers if you plonk them in mining fields, you effectively deny all interaction with pirates which ends up having a negative impact on the server. Makes it even worse if you build a second PoB to defend the first one.. I mean.. Why..
You can sulk about this all you like, I have been nothing but accommodating to your faction - I offered to do joint convoys etc but you simply refuse. Replacing the current leaders of Bretonia with some guy that is upset his third PoB has not been approved is not something the server/community would like or even accept. I suggest you try to make contact with factions, not just when you want to build another PoB.
The mining rates in the Birmingham field were not enacted to "annoy BMF", as I stated above there has to be some sort of compromise to allow another field to be buffed. I will speak to the Admins for you about getting the BMM Indie ID the bonus as well, in the mean time please don't make yourself look foolish.

Alley, its not a rage post, it's a post with many questions about changes that directly target and kill the recent most active and evolving faction, that even erase their complete right to exist. It is ment to force people to think about the answers and to understand. You destroy our game and our meaning.
Did you every fly the routes and calculated mining time together with the flytime and the pricing? We did! And soon I present you everything. Futhermore when a mining field is totally unattractive for aminer, as he just mines, all calculations make no sense.

Comeon, the same old story again and again?
That bases are the only reason for our existance and the only reason for our activity! And another base will only increase our gameplay. You know that you can play this game also as a creator, who likes to build, supply and construct something?
Noone was ever interrested in that specific mining area. Manchester was dead before we arrived there. That mining area is not even mentione in the Bretonian laws2.5 - Division of Mineral Fields.
So please ..... that much to killing activity and the bad bad POBs. Isntead of killing it WE created it!
Furtheremore you had been one of the first mienrs of Fortitudine.
