This will not make you a Harvester it just tells us your a non target and someone to be helped. Any responces we may have to assist are among our own channels but post here to get our attention.

DarkWings position against the Harvesters has nothing to do with the fact that they are machines.
They initiated hostilities towards us and we reacted. Then they camp out in Omega-15 which is the only system that Bounty Hunters can run missions without having to deal with any House groups.
I think the Outcasts position against the Harvesters is due to the Harvesters becoming allied with the Corsairs. For as long as I have been with DarkWing they have never initiated a conflict but have always reacted to agression actions against us.

the harvesters use junker ids correct? i might consider getting IG-88 some junker bribes then. However this may make it harder for me to get imp delibs the only base i know they are sold on is a ageina base in Colorado..
To Raekur i wasn't aware the harvesters started it but some machines tend to be automatically hostile to humans especially if they;ve been exploted

The GC distrust all A.Is after having had numerous bad encounters with the Harvesters in the past. So its really up to the A.Is to prove they're not a threat before they'll be left alone.

Well dont base your character off of equipment but there are better than imp debs within our alliances.

BHG were used as troops in the Harvester/Zoner war. Only after our war the BHG (not DW) stayed hostile.
We did not see a difference in one BHG from another they were all apart of one animal the BHG. Thus some unsuspecting DW were ambushed while we battled in Rhineland once. Since then and that was months ago, they are just as mad today as they were then.
And folks say we are relentless. Even the Harvesters have made peace with other factions. We just as a Rp componet of our faction see all members factionalized or not as part of one entity. Thus if BHG A plays nice on day 1 (no prob), then BHG B attacks us on day 2 (we fight back), then if we cross BHG A again he is treated like BHG B.

Well I like the robots, especialy harvesters, unit 17 and 1, hehe I'm pretty fond of them, they roleplay much more than an average character... and such...
So as long as the robot unit is not beant on human destruction Yaaay, come right in...
Robot Characters - Dra1003 - 07-29-2008
My robot character is careful around humans it sees them as a possible threat to its existence but this is mostly aimed at zoners due to a fact a zoner exploited it. It's a merc so it only attacks humans when going after a bounty or to defend its self. I should probably state this in my bio before everyone starts shooting at me with no warnings..

Don't know every detail about the DW/Harvester thing going on in O-15, but i have to dissagree with your reasoning. Harv's operate from Junker bases, theres a Junker base in O-15, i dont see it as camping out in the system when Junkers are thier allies and bornholme is basically the only junker base not in a main house system. One could say DW is camping O-15 because they are at Rostock, when BH missions are offered basically everywhere, but i won't, because Rostock is a BH base, and therefore a place they can and should be seen operating. Just as Harvesters operate and do missions from Junker/Corsair bases and they may be seen around them or in those systems.
BH missions can be done from just about any Zoner base (nearly all are in non-house space), and from Planet Grand Canaria, which is WAY out away from house space and in my opinion is the best place to do BH missions besides Freeport 9 or 11.

Your right here. Terms like "Toaster" and "Must be another drone, KILL IT!!!" come to mind. Because that is the type of message we usually see, if anything at all, just before someone opens fire on us for no real reason. I also find it more than a coincidence that even when trying to RP a semi-lawful robot that dont fire on anyone first, most of the attacks come from bounty hunters or by the police/navy in house space. So its those lawful's who attacked us in the past, over and over again for no real reason, that have pushed us to becomming generally speaking, unlawful, even though we (atleast in Binary's case) are rarely the attackers.
There are several reasons robots/machines would be hostile to BH/Mercs, in the simplest form BH kill for fun/glory/profit, rather than to survive, like most living things. I would like to assume that by default robots would be lawful, programmed or wanting to protect human life unless they were "abused" and turned into killerbots. We are unfriendly/hostile to outcasts because of the cardamine and thier reverance of the nomads, an even greater threat to humans now than they ever were in SP. Could you imagine the entire cardamine fueled outcast population becomming infested because of thier proximity and tolerance of the nomads. Now that could be a BIG problem could it not? Not to mention the wild in the omega's, our preverbial backyard. Robots/Machines can't really be "infested" by a nomad so they make perfect soldiers against them. Some realise this and allow us passage, use of thier ships/bases, or even ally with us.
Zoners, in my opinion, they abandoned Gammu and the robots, and we didnt like it too much. So they get to be Neutral/Unfriendly at best. Plus the thing that happened with the harvesters made it worse. So they are Neutral in my book, as Zoners should be.
Does that make any sense at all?
