SUBJECT: Freeport 8, Sigma-15
ENCRYPTION: MEDIUM
PRIORITY: MEDIUM
To whom it may concern,
Recently Freeport 8 has made its appearance in the Sigma 15 system which was formerly known as the Luneburg system. As a Freelancer who has taken on jobs throughout Sirius I was one of the people that managed to witness parts of the events in Omicron Delta concerning the quarrels revolving around the Freeport 11 station. These events raised tensions with all groups surrounding the station and it is my concern that Freeport 8 might have a similar faith if the laws are not properly followed by any of the involved parties.
The location of the Freeport in Sigma 15 makes it so that several groups may fight interest in this safe haven. To my knowledge the Corsairs, Bundschuh, The Order and The Core may become frequent visitors. As a Rheinland civilian it worries me to see these groups near our home, especially this close to Hammersee and this worry was confirmed by today's encounter with an Order cruiser that was loitering the Freeport. The IRG Zoner that was around showed no interest in dealing with it as the Zoner laws have not yet been applied to the station.
This communique is send your way to show the possible dangers this Freeport may pose in a system like Sigma-15. As a Rheinland civilian it is in my interest that Sigma-15 remains calm but I have a feeling that the Zoners need to be told what they can and can't do when being in such a fragile position. Of course this is up to the government and the Military themselves on how to deal with the situation and I expect they will decide correctly.
You will find my visual evidence of the Order cruiser in the attachment below as well as the logs.
[14.05.2016 15:57:05] Inge.Wexler: hm... hold on.
[14.05.2016 15:57:15] Aiden.McFarlane: I did check out this place as soon as I heard rumors...
[14.05.2016 15:57:37] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: Ermm...you seem familiar, 'lancer....
[14.05.2016 15:57:41] Aiden.McFarlane: Right. That vessel seems familiar.
[14.05.2016 15:57:52] Inge.Wexler: You two know each other?
[14.05.2016 15:57:58] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: We've met earlier...you brought a friend?!
[14.05.2016 15:58:03] Aiden.McFarlane: Not really. But we did meet.
[14.05.2016 15:58:13] IRG|Brandon.Wright: Welcome to Freeport 8 pilots
[14.05.2016 15:58:18] Aiden.McFarlane: And technically she brought me, so... Yeah.
[14.05.2016 15:58:23] Inge.Wexler: Hello there, IRG.
[14.05.2016 15:58:29] Aiden.McFarlane: Greetings.
[14.05.2016 15:58:44] Inge.Wexler: Quite a risky thing to do, having a capital vessel within your NFZ, one hostile to those that roam this place even.
[14.05.2016 15:59:06] Inge.Wexler: oh well.. the Zoner's NFZ, not yours I suppose, IRG.
[14.05.2016 15:59:35] IRG|Brandon.Wright: The NFZ only applies to Zoners, anyone else is welcome to be near our stations, unless you are the Core
[14.05.2016 15:59:45] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: Is a NFZ for a reason. People should abide by the rules set in the area.
[14.05.2016 16:00:17] IRG|Brandon.Wright: Furthermore the CoF has yet to apoint and admin of this station or include it within its Laws, we still are outfitting
[14.05.2016 16:00:20] Inge.Wexler: Hm.. yeah NFZ for a reason, yet it reads saying no non-Zoner capital vessels are allowed within it.
[14.05.2016 16:00:32] IRG|Brandon.Wright: the station for habitation
[14.05.2016 16:00:45] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: O'Rhu for one, upholds the desire of Zoners. The vessel has the weapons systems offline.
[14.05.2016 16:00:59] Inge.Wexler: You're still violating their laws however
[14.05.2016 16:01:04] Inge.Wexler: by being within the 10k radius.
[14.05.2016 16:01:12] Inge.Wexler: I am simply reminding you.
[14.05.2016 16:01:12] Aiden.McFarlane: Well, I guess in the end, the Zoners follow the "no harm done" rule on this one.
[14.05.2016 16:01:34] IRG|Brandon.Wright: Thats great that your reminding him, but again, Freeport 8 was just built and isn't incuded in the CoF laws as of yet
[14.05.2016 16:01:44] Inge.Wexler: It's better for them to simply abide their own laws. Wouldn't want a military patrol spot this vessel hanging at your base,
[14.05.2016 16:01:45] Inge.Wexler: right?
[14.05.2016 16:02:10] Aiden.McFarlane: As in, if the captain of the ship doesn't show any signs of aggression, why bother? But... Miss Wexler has a point here.
[14.05.2016 16:02:11] IRG|Brandon.Wright: What military? you mean Rhineland? This is the home system of their Party in exile, they arne't going to like anyone here
[14.05.2016 16:02:31] Inge.Wexler: There is a Military base around the corner.
[14.05.2016 16:02:50] Aiden.McFarlane: And a planet controlled by Rheinland authorities.
[14.05.2016 16:02:51] IRG|Brandon.Wright: Yeah, and there is a Corsair base here as well, does that mean it is apart of the Corsair empire?
[14.05.2016 16:02:54] Inge.Wexler: as I said, I'm simply giving you a nice warning, that it might cause issues in the future.
[14.05.2016 16:03:32] Inge.Wexler: You know how Rheinland is when it comes to terrorists.
[14.05.2016 16:03:38] Inge.Wexler: and giving them shelter.
[14.05.2016 16:03:42] IRG|Brandon.Wright: If this was their space I would follow their laws
[14.05.2016 16:03:50] Inge.Wexler: Once this freeport does get included...
[14.05.2016 16:04:33] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: You seemed quite verssed on the Zoner laws for a Freelancer, more so, about that part with issuing warnings?!
[14.05.2016 16:04:39] Inge.Wexler: But as of right now, no laws apply here so everyone is free to dow aht they want right?
[14.05.2016 16:04:50] IRG|Brandon.Wright: As I have been saying, but you havent' been hearing
[14.05.2016 16:04:57] Inge.Wexler: my warning holds no realy weight.
[14.05.2016 16:05:02] Inge.Wexler: I am a mere freelancer.
[14.05.2016 16:05:13] Inge.Wexler: real. Even.
[14.05.2016 16:05:24] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: For what is worth, I listen to your case, more so, you might not know the whoel story.
[14.05.2016 16:05:24] IRG|Brandon.Wright: Once the station is fully complete and the CoF installs a station adminitrator I'm sure the laws will be updated to reflect it
[14.05.2016 16:05:25] IRG|Brandon.Wright: status
[14.05.2016 16:05:40] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: I might have been invited here...hence, you warning would be meaningless.
[14.05.2016 16:05:43] Aiden.McFarlane: Well, I can see how things -might- get complicated when there's more traffic from Rheinland to that moon over there.
[14.05.2016 16:06:04] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I think Rhineland is going to be more focused on Sigma 21
[14.05.2016 16:06:17] Inge.Wexler: Once the Freeport is recognized I suggest the O'Rhu to keep their capital ships where they belong and that's not here.
[14.05.2016 16:06:32] IRG|Brandon.Wright: And I suggest that mouthly Freelancers know their place
[14.05.2016 16:06:52] Inge.Wexler: Wright, it's simple advice
[14.05.2016 16:06:59] Inge.Wexler: you saw what happened in Delta
[14.05.2016 16:07:00] O'Rhu|CV-Ma'at: ?: Hold your friend here tighter, she starts to sound too impulsive.
[14.05.2016 16:07:01] Aiden.McFarlane: I think 21 is a bit out of Rheinland's reach though, Mr. Wright.
[14.05.2016 16:07:12] IRG|Brandon.Wright: heh, you really know nothing about this area do you?
[14.05.2016 16:07:13] Inge.Wexler: when the Order grouped up around the freeport, which is in violation of their laws.
[14.05.2016 16:07:49] Aiden.McFarlane: But really though, I think everyone managed to get their point across.
[14.05.2016 16:07:56] Don't use F1 or disconnect when interacting with other players.
[14.05.2016 16:08:15] Aiden.McFarlane: Miss Wexler, I guess there's no need to push it. It did sound somewhat... too intimidating, I guess.
[14.05.2016 16:08:30] WV-Vindicta: meh i lost the bastard
[14.05.2016 16:08:37] Inge.Wexler: I guess they don't really care about their own laws.
[14.05.2016 16:08:40] Aiden.McFarlane: Which sure wasn't the intention.
[14.05.2016 16:08:42] Inge.Wexler: and what it might lead to.
[14.05.2016 16:09:02] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I love how your talking out of your butt, its really entertaining
[14.05.2016 16:09:05] WV-Vindicta: order vessel if you enter Rho you are mine!!!!
[14.05.2016 16:09:17] Inge.Wexler: Sadly I'm not.
[14.05.2016 16:09:42] Inge.Wexler: and you thinking I am makes it just funny, especially since you're a Zoner that probably suffered from the Delta events.
[14.05.2016 16:10:01] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I didn't leave on or near Freeport 11 for some time now, I left after the 801 nomad war
[14.05.2016 16:10:08] IRG|Brandon.Wright: live*
[14.05.2016 16:10:29] Inge.Wexler: Right, so you telling me I am talking nonsense is even more amusing
[14.05.2016 16:10:36] Inge.Wexler: since you're the one that isn't informed about the situation.
[14.05.2016 16:10:53] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I am apart of the Confederation of Freeports, I believe I am more aware than you are of our current status
[14.05.2016 16:11:12] Inge.Wexler: So you're aware about capital vessels being unwanted near any Zoner installation that is recognized?
[14.05.2016 16:11:29] Inge.Wexler: and that the main event where the Core assaulted the Freeport was due to an Order fleet being at Freeport 11?
[14.05.2016 16:11:37] Inge.Wexler: Which included Capital vessels.
[14.05.2016 16:11:38] Aiden.McFarlane: I think some Freeports have their own rules though.
[14.05.2016 16:12:02] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I want you to go open up the CoF's report on the Core attack, read it, ALL THE WAY, and tell me where there was an order vessel
[14.05.2016 16:12:17] IRG|Brandon.Wright: stop skimming
[14.05.2016 16:12:35] Inge.Wexler: I know what I saw
[14.05.2016 16:12:45] Inge.Wexler: and that was an order fleet at the Freeport
[14.05.2016 16:12:50] Inge.Wexler: which was wiped clean by a Core one.
[14.05.2016 16:13:09] IRG|Brandon.Wright: I can only roll my eyes so far into the back of my head, I have things to do
[14.05.2016 16:13:18] Inge.Wexler: but as I said before, all I did here was warn you about the possible issues that could rise from having Order capital vessels e
[14.05.2016 16:13:40] Aiden.McFarlane: *sighs*
[14.05.2016 16:13:42] Inge.Wexler: Just be sure to abide your laws here and I am sure the Freeport will remain a Freeport.
[14.05.2016 16:13:47] Inge.Wexler: Once recognized.
[14.05.2016 16:14:00] Aiden.McFarlane: If I were you, I wouldn't annoy the locals.

SUBMITTER:Major Andreas Fischer, Rheinland Military RECIPIENT:Inge Wexler SUBJECT:Re: Freeport 8, Sigma-15
Inge Wexler,
The Rheinwehr received your message about this Freeport in Sigma-15 and reviewing it with high priority. You have nothing to worry about, the Military definitely won't tolerate any criminal or terrorist activity this close to our Vaterland, even if it's based on a seemingly neutral station.
Thank you for bringing this matter to us, keep us informed if you can.
