Sir,
What are you thinking? Are you judging all Zoners for the actions of a few? Names, please! I frequent Liberty space, as does my misses, running needed supplies to and from Freeport 2, a supply understanding that I myself negotiated with the Liberty authorities.
As for anyone who tries collecting on these bounties, there names will be documented and I do hope they have other places to land outside of Zoner bases. Mr. Collard, I suggest you rescind this bounty as it is totally unnecessary and uncalled for.
Your complaints have been noted. Flooding the job board isnt the proper way to go about it, though. regardless:

Well, we don't want that, do we? If we knew all we needed, there would be no need to bring them in for questioning.
I'll try to rephrase te problem description again:
Building up a warship army within Liberty borders and using the relative tolerance towards that recently will not be supported anymore. This "problem" runs up high, including certain well-known weapon dealers, for example. We won't mention names, because we're in the process of gathering evidence of all illicit activities of these individuals and groups, and as I like to say: "The time has to suit for a lawsuit".
And the "honest" folk ... well ... keep your heads down, diplomatic flag up and avoid Liberty as much as you should, because in the border worlds and edge worlds you can have all the freedom you want. Unlike those barbaric places, in Liberty there is some law to uphold.
Well isnt this something. Well to make clear, Interspace Neural-Net Division has no part in this little foolish game. We value our relations with the Zoner Council as well as the Zoner Community at Large, and would never take such actions against those we we have such a close history with. It should also be noted that this Ian Collard is not affiliated with IND or any of our contact network in IC. I think this Mr.l Collard may be just a puppet for some larger game being played between those in Liberty and the Zoners. As for evidence, as a Vice President of IND, I would request Mr. Collard send me the evidence he has, as his bounty is being made, not in his own name, but that of Interspace Commerce, who happens to sign my own paychecks, and as an Officer of Interspace Commerce, I would like to see why things are being done in my name, without my knowledge.

Friendly suggestion, Collard. Politics is a dangerous game, and there are many... 'sects' of Zoners. I'd advise you add an exclusion list mentioning say the TAZ, and any other Zoners who are trustworthy for a given definition. We don't want to scare them all out of Liberty, particularly when not all of them are under the corrupting influence of Cardamine.
I am sorry to say that i see many Zoner ships with -shall we say noone legal cargo-
Maby it is time for your Zoner Counsil to get theese Indie traders aligned, they try to hide under a guard
ID but they are mearly smugglers trying to look innocent.
I am not a native English Speaker, so i make grammar errors.
But it annoys me when people make silly comments about that... especially brits who for the most part can't speak their own language let alone anyone elses!

Have you ever tried to herd cats, sir?
I know, that was rather specious and non-responsive.
Here, let's try again. In regards to those individuals you refer to specifically, if they are not "Registered" Zoners, you may blow them to Thud with impunity.
We could care less.
Commander von Darkmoor and Squire Jethro, complimentary humidors of fine Canarian Cheroots are enroute as we "speak".

Sir, may I quote to you a portion of the "Zoner Registry"? To wit:
Quote:(Disclaimer!: The Council of Zoners has no influence over, or responsibility for, the actions of unregistered Zoners.
In fact, the Council has very little influence over Registered Zoners, when you get right down to it.)
Hope that helps.

If anyone sees, and has the prerequisite proof of a TAZ vessel "smuggling", please contact me over private comms, and I will have them polishing the windows of the Temple spires in a leaky EVA suit before you can say "Beamtenherrschaft"!
Oh, and Mr. Collard? Are you still miffed at us? If so, would you be so kind as to provide us your ship name, in case we might choose to return the favor?

You are not Interspace Commerce. You are the Neuralnet Division. You can't have it all, sir.
