i Just did a restart as a zoner and i can't think why this is how it is yet zoner is not neutral to all. in fact most criminals are hostile? Why is this?

Even if you are a Zoner don't be surprised you get pirated on your transport. That's the wrong mentality newer players have, thinking that Zoner ID exempts them from piracy.
Just some tips to stay alive when facing bullies: demanding neutrality doesn't work, promising to be useful or returning the favor later may work, actually being useful does work. Having more, bigger or better guns can also work, but is not the Zoner Way. Having more, bigger or better friends to protect you can be zonerish though. Making friends out of enemies is basically the best weapon you can have as a Zoner, remember however that while it is a difficult art to master, it is also a very rewarding one.
note that you can become neutral with all human Sirius factions (including guards) by repfixing (missions for militaries, bribes for others). However, it can take some time (around 20h if you are efficient) and money. Of course Nomad/Wild will remain hostile. Also I've never tried to be neutral with all Gallic factions.
In the end you will be neutral with most NPC, but can still be pirated by player characters. To deal with them I 100% agree with Thyrzul.
i understand how that works just dont want NPC's attacking zoners like stupid heyna rouges attack something they dont even go though shield and attack POB's
Restart RhCivilian
Fly to Freeport 1
Take one bribe of the Liberty Rogues
Done, you will be neutral, just some factions like Xenos, Coalition and Colonial-Crayterian will remain hostile, but you can fix some of them (like the Coalition in Newport Station).
Oh, and if you have a good ship you can get Zoner missions to increase your rep quickly in Coronado against the Wild, but you need to be good, there are very hard missions there. Or just fly to Bethlehem and get a triple bribe.
