Quote:Terms of the Policies:
~The No-Fire Zone is an area in which no offensive actions are allowed. (This includes attempts at piracy/taxation, the use of weapons (guns, missiles, mines), intentional ramming, or provocative behaviour such as threats, taunting or masked insults.)
~Loitering inside a NFZ is not allowed. (Non-Zoner vessels are expected to use the Freeports facilities and then move on, or to stay docked when waiting for others.)
~Trade vessels fleeing into a NFZ must dock. (Trade vessels are either freighter or tranport class craft.) All other vessels are not allowed to flee into a NFZ.
~No Non-Zoner vessel of a Gunboat Class and above may dock at Freeport 9. Traders are excluded.
~Violating a No-Fire Zone can lead to immediate prosecution and engagement, by any Zoner.
Where do I begin with this reeking pile of refuse? The Coalition do not recognize these clauses, I mean a half blind leper wouldn't agree to these clauses if you added a messiah with a healing touch to the bargain.
I mean what do you take us for? If the Corsairs are not bound by this, we certainly will not be bound by it. I mean, who willingly ties both hands behind their backs and then jumps in the ring with a rabid weasel? That's just asking to have something important bitten off...
Look would you damn Toads stop filling the airwaves with useless prattle? I mean what is next, a puppy and a jar of cookies with every signature? Throw in a couple of bottles of vodka and we might consider it... well probably not, since we're being brutally honest here.
You know what I want, I want the damn Zoners to stay the hell out of the fighting, you want to be neutral, then be neutral. Sit in the corner, suck your thumb and don't speak unless told. I mean, that's what's essentially happened here, isn't it? Your vaunted sovereignty stripped away, and your neutrality violated in rather a nasty fashion by rather rough hands.

Greetings.
It seems a lot has conspired.
Mr Mendel, I will talk with you a little later about a few things.
Elder Globalo and Elder Sephardi, the clause about no loitering within a 5k radius of Freeport 9 or Corfu Station comes under the Good Neighbour Policy. I am more than willing to annul that within thirty seconds of you stating and confirming you do not intend to follow it. Just remember though, you wanted it there to prevent other capitals from using our space as a protectice barrier. Also remember, within our agreement signed, you have no right to police the 5k radius of space around Freeport 9 or Corfu Station.
Furthermore, if we put an Aquilon 2k within Planet Crete, we would not even get words, just mortars. It appears we are getting the rough end of the stick here.
Elder Valentine, I have no idea what your point is, or the message you are trying to pass off. Please clarify it so I may attempt to address it.
I feel that I must agree with the barking mongrel of the archaic Colation... The Nation does not accept these terms, mostly because we tend to get attacked within the bounds of this supposed "No Fire Zone".
So long as our enemies do not respect you enough to follow your rules then we won't either. It's not personal, it's just a matter of survival.

Representative of the Nation,
We are trying to get both parties here to recognise that the Good Neighbour policy is still in play.
It appears they have forgotten the benefits of this policy.
I would prefer if Outcasts did not endanger our station, since we know how hard it is to aim accurately and only at one's target in a brawl; especially when there is a station constricting the combat field.

And what, have to hit cruise to reach your rather conveniently located bar for that all important celebratory drink?
Do you have any idea how lazy fighter pilots are these days? Besides, no one's going to notice a few extra snac shots in amongst the black scores from when the Corsairs sailed up and kicked the snot out of your station at point blank range with siege mortars.
You could set up bleachers, make a killer profit betting on the outcome of the fights like a good anarchistic capitalist.

Well, the main reason you would move you fight away is so you can have future celebratory drinks.
We have sufficiently repaired from the Corsairs attack, not fully, but all is well enough, for now.

Self defense is kosher. But be aware. We do not go to Crete, Malta, or O-52 and desecrate your turf.
For anybody here who has a mind to piss on our edicts, be advised, there is a very juicy snack awaiting you. If a Zoner Guard tells you to leave the No Fire Zone, there is probably a very good reason behind it. If you comply, you help preserve the security of our people. If you do not, you endanger them.
We want every trader to enjoy the benefits of our Freeports. Do not take a dump on these benefits by bringing ships of war to our doorsteps. It disturbs the wildlife.
Now Elder Globalo has shown that he did not open fire near Freeport 9 yesterday. This is much appreciated by the Omicroners. Please do not discredit these very kind acts by returning with a battleship and refusing to comply with Zoner security teams. We all want to stay on good terms and it starts with respecting each other's authority.
If I bring a battleship near your bases and a guard tells me to skiddadle, you better believe I'll be doing just that.
