OORP motivations are regarding all PoBs not this one. There are/have been lots of PoBs within ZoI that we haven't instantly declared war on to prove that this is not the driving factor to what we are trying to achieve.
I was not actually talking about Xuanming Trade Center, although it is a thorn in our side it does bring people to the system and although it might eventually get sieged it is adding substance to the game environment. I was talking about Shijori (Or something along those lines) I do apologise to the owner if I am mistaken maybe you are just in a different time zone to me.
In regards to us being lazy, I would have to disagree although we do have a veteran place of hardcore RPers in we have tried to keep everything up to a decent standard. many of our RP stories have lasted weeks in order to build depth. I can see what you're saying in with bare minimum RP at this moment but there is an intention for more to be done today and tomorrow to fill out this story. However I will consider putting future attacks on player assets on hold until a larger chunk of RP is done depending on the urgency of the situation.
Finally, it is kind of in the Blood Dragon nature to be suspicious of outsiders given our past regarding the fall from power, why wouldn't we have doubt about discovering hidden installations within our core systems. We have actually made many friends around Kusari employing the same method that we are now so although I can't disagree that you could end up with additional enemies, most people will come to defend a base they have invested time into and just because there is a declaration doesn't mean it will end up dead so that situation could be resolved in space if you had made a complete error with your attack plans.
Thanks for your feedback it helps us grow and become a better faction for the future. If anyone has anything to add to this please message me on this thread as I'm sure others are asking the same questions.
