I think the question is why where you bringing a Redemption into a fight with 3 RNS after all the other CR and CLN had already died? You had marked your grave already.

I find it rather dissapointing that the GRN officials would resort to metagaming for any reason, but even more so when the reason is "because stuff to shoot" (on an RP server, mind you).
I won't comment on the fact that Tau 44 is a disputed system and the GRN wouldn't defend a random Zoner/Unknown installation around there - but to just pop out of nowhere exactly where the CR is is plain unreasonable.
Maybe in the future you'll try to think things through a bit more before acting.
Hi, I wasn't actually at the fight incident thing so I dont actually even know specifically what happened, but this argument is a bit silly from any PoV. I mean even CR does this kind of thing and so does almost every faction. You can see many instances of CR doing the exact same thing you just described and even justifying it inrp as "listening posts". My personal favorite is the Kusari brand "long range scanners".

What a joke. When people come to BAF| and provide feeback about unfair fights, you ignore it based on the idea that it must be submitted via template.
And now you are here complaining about not getting fair fight. What a joke.
Excuse me, but I don't have anything to do with that. AlphaWolf handles the feedback thread, I started only a couple of days ago in his absence.
Additionally, if you have had any unfair fights against the BAF| recently, please submit it in the feedback thread and please use the form. It is really easy. If it is not, you can, well, give feedback to the form and we can make it easier to use. I can't remember the last time the BAF| gave someone an unfair fight, so please let me know.

The question you should ask yourself is - Would I win even if one of the battlecruisers stayed out?
The answer is no, the only thing it'd do is prolong the fight for another 10-15 minutes, and I don't think you'd enjoy that time being stuck in asteroids.

Johnathan, please don't leave feedback with that sort of tone. This is a thread for objective, meaningful complaints against the faction, not for you to express personal disappointment that GRN| does exactly the same thing every other faction does. Yes, we used the player list. Every faction does that; this is not a revelation or breach of ettiquette. Secondly, RP does not equate to talking. Shooting Colonials inside our ZoI is part of our RP, whether you like it or not. I am surprised that an Angel, of all people, still draws that arbitrary (and frankly, borderline harmful) line between RP and PvP as if the two are entirely separate.
Lastly, we are fully within our rights to engage and destroy CR| inside our ZoI. I would ask what the roleplay rationale is behind CR| destroying a Zoner base deep inside the Taus is in turn, but I wouldn't want to embarass you for lack of answers.

Excuse me please, but from what time navy factions defending POB in their space and ZOI are wrong? I can understand that the broken siege is the bad thing... And you would probably like to just come and kill the base without any RP or PVP interaction, but apparently things on the server are (gladly) working in other way.
@Jayce Which means that if you engaged a ship somewhere fairly, and it was losing, you would attack it with even more ships so it loses faster because you think it is going to lose anyways? And is a fight more fun for you if it is shorter?
