There were not 5 folks flying for the VE last month. Activity was there but the folks were not. I was KIND to the VE last month when I simply gave you the same warning that I gave to everyone else. Look at the KNF and Hogosha, they didn't get that, they got suspended.
Politics? On this matter? Are you bugnuts crazy? I bloody helped write the VE ID, I sat and talked for nearly an hour to get that ID working.
The VE are no longer official. That is something you will need to deal with.
as for the [|] honestly, cry me a damn river, you've plenty to do, get and do it.
KNF - thank you for accepting this so gracefully.
Saint Del is considered a holy healer of diseases of children, but also as a protector of cattle.
' Wrote:They can go to the Tau's, Sigma's, Gallia, Kepler and Galileo, though they do not. That for me is a good amount of system to go to for piracy for Hogosha.
And Okinawa, and they can team up with the AFA and haul the cargo those guys overtly pirate. And as far as I know they're not outlawed in Rheinland or Liberty, so they can haul goods to/from there. And shoot Junkers along the way. There's stuff to do, it's just not the same stuff that you used to do.
I agree about the KNF though, the addition of the Ronin made the KNF redunant.
First of all, I want to thank the Admin team for this, it's been a wake up call for me personally, I've not taken my responsibilities in the last few months and that has caused VE to stagnant, if not for Soul, Jakub, Justin and Chet the VE would have died a long time ago.
We will re-apply when we get our things together and start to Go Out There, so to say.
And I wanna thank Del especially since he made the ID itself, the hard work you put in I do appreciate and am just sad that it had to take something like this to make me realize that I've been a Schmuck.
It's good to see some things get burned from time to time. You know that forests grow really quite quickly after a forest fire right? Something like a phoenix from the ashes. Or even fungus, you know?
I'll be looking closely into the potential of the Golden Chrysanthemums.
' Wrote:sorry to say but my sympathy for your plight is minimal. All that is required for house activity is trade. That's it. With trade comes piracy and with that comes lawful activity. Given the ridiculously small amount of time 5 folks nee to fly for over the course of a month it really shouldn't be hard to maintain activity in Kusari. Lord knows enough trade flows through there.
I dont think that its that easy Del.
True that, enough trade flies there. A big part of it is shipping the new H3 stuff with GMG ships, so those are off limits for BDs and most GCs as well. The other big part is the silent cruise-and-hope-to-get-away-without-a-word trader that you meet everywhere else as well.
And then there is this really small percentage of traders that is fun to interact with.
There is also nearly no law enforcement in Kusari, I personally didnt see a KNF or KSP this year yet, blame the Ronin for this, why should someone waste time searching for pirates in Kusari if he can have all the shooting in the Taus and some of Bretonia?
The only ones that popped up from time to time were the AFA and I have to say that those encounters were great, but not often enough to justify spending much more time then required ingame.
Now comes the real problem, I personally dont gain ANY fun from pirating the mute kind of traders. I also can hardly imagine that anyone enjoys pirating people over a longer period of time if there is nearly no risk of getting caught by the lawfuls, because getting caught sometimes is part of the game. This is what makes Rogues fun, there is nearly a guarantee that sometime soon a Navy will pop up and cause you to run away as fast as you can. I never had this kind of interaction in Kusari.
I've been playing as a GC for over 2 years now, back then Kusari was not the most populated place, but at least sometimes you could have really great interactions there, however this situation didnt get better, it just got worse, so I dont see much sense in blaming the players for using their time to do something more funny, I can even understand and encourage them to have their share of fun here.
Maybe someone will find a way to fix Kusaris problems, or people keep ignoring them, that works well too.
We believe we have met the required minimums within the 2 week timeframe. There are 8 of us now, clocking up 5.12:26:15 at the moment.
For those that are curious, this seems to me to be due to the amount of potential for fighting there has been lately: which is caused by the unlawful factions.
Everyone has really added their weight to what was empty and all helped to create activity. Thank you to everyone who has participated in the last few weeks, you have created fun.

[KSP] is actually relatively active in comparison to most Kusari groups and has been for a while.

I bet Jansen have a timezone problem here. I mostly see KSP online when it`s night here in Europe. The other day i saw 5 at the same time online. At 4 am or so. And don`t ask me why i was awake....:D
