And that is where the "haters kill bases" idea comes from. It is somewhat right, anger is likely the only motivation that can motivate sufficiently big numbers to group up and do it.
If your base is not "hated", because it does not harm anybody (like most bases), you will likely not be attacked, demands will be bearable and generally such bases are tolerated or overlooked. Because: Why would anybody go to the length and waste his time and money on something that is no fun when there is no reason to be annoyed about it?
It's "live and let live" in that case.
And then there are the rare cases where there are whatever reasons (some more valid than others) to "hate" a POB for whatever reason. And when the anger and frustration level that is triggered by that POB is high enough, it becomes more likely that enough players group up to remove it. That's what is happening at the moment.
So you admit your are just playing along and add more fuel to the fire? Just because it suits your best interest? May I add that you use your IMG station in the omega 7 system to dispatch the hessian ships? I think we should use this hate you call to POB's to the IMG in this case. Do I hear a docking bay hacking again?
That was in a different thread which I thought I posted in, oh well. But still.
