Hello, as a member of one of the Consensus, I am here to ask - why our relations were strained. The Order began to be enemies of us due to trespassing our territory. Kempeitai has been suspicious of us also. Our only real allies are the Corsairs and the Zoners, nothing else. Perhaps...
The Order is all about fighting for the survival of humanity, and would be very opposed to non-human powers growing anywhere, much less in their back yard. The Kempeitai doesn't really care about fighting non-humans for the good of all humanity like the Order is, but they're still very wary about new organizations that are opportunistically growing within their sphere of influence.
I can also say that Rheinland's MND is being suspicious of your ships as well, since it seems that AI ships are purchasing raw materials from Rheinland bases, and carting them off to god-knows-where, especially after a bunch of ores were intercepted in Hamburg leaving toward Bering before being redirected elsewhere.
All in all, in the view of most factions, anything growing within its perceived territory, without any incentive to accept said growth, is something that is viewed suspiciously at best, and as a hostile at worst.
If you'd like to improve your relations with other factions, have something to make yourself useful and beneficial. Then by profit motive alone, you can entice others to deal with you in a productive capacity.
You see, any faction will be suspicious to any new faction that runs around their borders with cruisers and do god know what. That is a normal course of actions.
Your relations with the Order worsened naturally through RP encounters. Once you've got that bad reputation, it will take a lot of effort to fix. That's only natural.
It started when you decided to shoot the Order vessels in defence of your Core friends near Iota hole. Nobody cares why you've done that, your reasons or your philosophy behind it. It's obvious with the Order... where they stand and what their viewpoint is. They will not like you for shooting them, they will not like you for helping the Core, they will not like you for conducting business and any other dealings with the Core. They will not like you for this:
[AI]Locutus: ::[UNIT 1 Statement] "Order" are <scum>. We "support" <BHG Core>.::
Hell, they don't like the way you walk down the street in the first place, so don't expect them to miss a chance to take potshots at your shields. They don't care about you. You are not human.
You'll be hated by the Order until you manage to get all of it forgotten, and those things take time.
Not "we guys" but some individuals that seemingly like to cause some trouble, or did not understand the concept of all this yet.
However, to not start anymore flaming: There will be consequences which hopefully will prevent this kind of rather weird encounters. InRply we have to solve this now, though.
Squished bigly ~Champ- Thanks, you're a champ. "What's the word for when it feels inside your heart that everything in the world is all right?"
"Your" "indies" don't help much either, abusing broked hitbox on the cruiser, harassing people doing missions. And after they managed to piss off pretty much everyone in Gamma, being chased by 4 Lolgates and Lolsiris what do they do? They dock with Crete...
My main impression with [AI] tagged ones so far was: You guys are not sure what you want to be. One of you says one thing, other says something completely opposite, third one just silently drops food to Crete.
Oh, so we're at the "Judge the faction using indies' actions" again? I have to state that this is not a valid way to base the relations towards a faction on. Otherwise, on a side note, the Order's last statement about that they do not care what "low rank Agents" say could also not be taken seriously for example.

May i say - be carefull what your ship are doing in Gamma , [AI] or/and indies . We had some problems before with AI ships , all ended bad for them .
Also , i told your ships too many times , and i repeat : too many times , that is not wise to come to Gamma empty handed and leave with the cargobay filled for your station . Corsairs are not salesmen - you bring food/wine/girls/cows whatever to Crete and you have a reason to leave the day , in any other cases you might not leave .
Ask yourselfs how many times again will we alow that to happen .
Corsairs don't hate you , yet , but also we are only tolerating you . Put more effort there , when an Legate captain try comunicate with your transports and you just ignore him .. well ...
