It looks completely unfair and a bit crappy to shoot the POB of players who largely had little to do with with the recent IMG-Bretonia diplomacy. Understandably, whilst your course of action makes sense inRP, I think when dealing with POBs you need a more open-minded approach since they're a sum of lots of players invested time and roleplay. Indie players being punished for roleplay pretty much exclusively between official factions is hella lame.

I agree on this. If those who run it are willing to change its IFF at least or change ownership, there's little sense in destroying bases that have been there for years. Falster station though has serious armaments, if its administrators insist on staying hostile, that seems a legitimate target to me. ED doesnt even have wp's, and isn't it paying its tax? Why turn down revenue?

I didn't actually see this but the Eldorado situation was resolved peacefully, I understand peoples thoughts that PoBs take a lot of work and time but, that is a risk you willingly enter so although on this occasion it wasn't necessary to attack it, doesn't mean they should be protected just because of the time expenditure involved. But I can see where you are coming from and in the case of Falster they were warned and no response was received (Largely because its core 4/5 and probably unkillable)
