How do I get Gurad rep on an already Zoner rep'd character without GMG missions?

Land on Planet GC, go shoot all the Zoner depots, die, take super bribes.

' Wrote:True; Zoners are not exempt from piracy.

But don't kill a Zoner in the same system as a Freeport if you ever plan on landing there.


Well here's my way, since my primary char is a zoner, of looking at it ......


Pirating a Zoner is fine, even in a freeport system.

HOWEVER, dont use the Freeport for a while.

Go dock and re-arm elsewere, and avoid the FP.

Treat it like the 4hr PvP death rule to an extent.

Personaly, when Im at FP1, if someone pirates a Zoner then comes to the FP like two minutes later, I'll boot em. They wait a long while THEN come, no issue.

Unless the 'zoner' in question was flooding system chat complaining about how you cant pirate Zoners.

In that case I tend to ignore the pirate, especily if he RPs in return, or uses local comms and I simply dont see what he wrote.

Omega49 doesnt have depots, fixed.


Basicly, you land as he said, undock, pew pew Zoner NPCs til nearly hostile, get quadbribe.

/droprep

repeat.

Doing it twice tends to get you zoner guard full.

Freeport One does have depots, though, and it works when there are many players online.

Any Zoner who claims immunity is quite frankly, a moron. They're basically asking for it! It is true that if you RP with pirate factions a bit, they're apt to leave you alone.

I will say this though, if you do decide to pirate a Zoner and that Zoner catches you docking on a Freeport, word will get out. In the near future, those names may be listed.

As far as being able to start off of GC, it may not be a bad option as Bethlehem Station will soon be Synth Foods in the next mod or so rumor has it.

' Wrote:I love this idea since I gain a year of extra life irl every time i gun down a zoner who says "you can't shoot me i'm neutral" to my corsair

Let me know the name of said Zoner so I can pirate him on my indie pirate to make him understand he isn't immune.

' Wrote:Commands? What difference would these have to the current /restart?

I think more templates for this should be enough...

Can you quite being an arse? You know he meant more /restart XXX.


Zoner /Restart? - Capt. Clicker - 01-27-2010

I agree with what most everyone above has said.

My main trader is a Zoner.
I expect to get pirated.
I'll try the old "prefer to remain neutral" line, but if it don't work, which it doesn't, more and more these days, I pay up or die and go to bed.
If it works, lucky me....I'm a whole $5mil better off (whoopdy dooo!)

re: Power Trader...
You call <3600 units of cargo limit = power trading?

me thinks...not.

As said above, it's easy enough to get a zoner rep if that's what you're after.

If you take the fun out of everything and everything is easy to gain via a /restart....why play at all?

This is a "ROLE PLAY" server...not a "ROLE RESTART" server.

Play the game people and get over it.
current /restart is brilliant and enough.

The reason why /restart Zoner hasn't been implemented, and this is just my assumption, has to do with the fact that you would get instant immunity and access to almost all NPCs and Bases.

Do you know what this means?

Players that start out no longer have to travel to Freeport 9 across the galaxy on their starfliers. What fun is that?

Only missing consideration here is that if the player were to switch to any different ID, he'd get a rephack;)

When Discovery admins allowed to tax zoners on a regular basis they killed the real RP of that faction...

The zoners should be neutral.. but now a lot of pirates kill zoners at will, even if they don't carry cargo at all...

Zoners should be like Switzerland on WW2, the neutral faction who is not killed due his diplomatic and financial power more than their militar power.

If we were playing a WW2 sim no-one would say, hey let's attack swiss NPCs and invade the country...

Anyways... this isn't suppose to be a /restart post?

By the way BlueSpawn, do you know how difficult is to create a zoner rep? Almost impossible to get... should be easier

Capt. Clicker, how many bribes do you need to get a zoner REP? ask Regan, who is one of the few zoners who have it. i guess u are talking about getting a zoner tag, which is completely different.
