Now, if you want to be friendly with the Order, then fine - do that. That way we can understand the potential hostility. (I think our Guild ID was red to you guys anyway, for whatever reason.) Just don't hide behind Zoner skirts.
Erm, may we differenciate RP from ooRP here? Sounds a lot to me as if you're taking this very personally. And sounds you're deducting what exactly we want here from that inRP thread. You know, I can tell you quite a few cases of countries saying something in public and doing a completely different thing. But I'm sure you're aware of such cases?
We have a right to be pretentious, backstabbing and skirt-hugging douches inRP. Heck, in quite a few cases that's considered "good RP". (I don't know if Linkus wants us to be that way though)
I'd personally wait for Linkus to explain the broader aspects of this (as he said he would) and -then- judge CR.
edit: Please note that my views don't represent those of CR leadership.
okay, the less confusing answer may be: our characters have a right to be a bit silly and irrational. It's not like you don't see a lot of those two in real world groups and leaders, eh? So why dislike the reasons we decided to throw our hat into the Omicron ring outside the RP enviroment? (which is exactly what a feedback thread is) - I'm not saying you shouldn't ask for the reasons, it's just that you're forcing your logic where not much logic is actually needed IMO.
And if our primary reason for this were indeed ooRP... So what? Why would first determining what you want to do in an ooRP enviroment, then find inRP reasons to do it - be bad? Hell, devs did it with the Bretonian - Kusari war. And many people say that that was the best thing to happen to Bretonia.

No offense Agmen, but I find it rather rich coming from BHG, that you chew someone out about finding a reason to shoot them. IMG and CR have always been neutral/friendly with the Zoners, even when we damn well know that they welcome Outcast forces as well. There is no reason that, if an organization asks for military assistance, an expeditionary fleet could not be sent if RP wise relations are good enough to warrant it. The fact that glorified mercenaries start stomping on what are basically civilians on the fringes of space, should have some reprocussions in and of itself, especially with lawful-oriented organizations inside house space (Daumann excluded for obvious reasons).
And incidentally, not all Corsairs are of mind to join in the current conflict. Right now the only thing that has happened was that a few Sails members saw a target of opportunity in a battle, and someone misstook that as an alliance. There's no such thing going on. BHG is on it's own out there in Delta, with Sairs just creating some added havoc when the chance presents itself.

I'm sorry, you're not allowed to be reasonable and intelligent on that - you have to scream Alliance like every one else is... :P
Actually, that's fine. More to shoot at, I guess. But I don't think that it would fit for the IMG to be involved, would it, just to clarify?

ESheep does not say Baah in this case. And no, IMG will not be involved. IMG has no holdings in the Omicrons, at most we'd supply our CR allies if they so asked. But even that is unlikely (since the CR knows how to take care of itself).
