Armed Traders Association - Asgardian - 11-27-2008
[ATA]-Asgard.Supply.Inc here. Mind adding me to the roster?
Might i suggest scraping the "Special Ops" division and keep it to simple "Trader" and "Military" divisions.

Greetings.
You have crafted a nice looking faction there. Good to see that you are not going for capitals ( Like trader escorted by battleship...realistic... ).
Only thing that is rhetorically thorn in my eye, is that ID, but It was mentioned several times ( Im sorry if it was somehow changed or something, I have not read pages 3 and 4 very much)... But even though you are not directy attacking anyone without reason, it still may bring confusion. Either some Zoner will think that he/she should engage pirates, or on the other side, some pirate will engage all Zoners after having harsh meeting with you. - Like with Harvesters, Ive had problems with that 3 times on my Junker, just flying without anything illegal, and someone starts shooting me, when I ask why I get something like " Because you junkers engage me as well so I kill you junkers" - " What Junkers engaged you?" - "That Harvester guy... now die *pew pew pew*"---
Problem is that a lot of people dont read forums, and so they dont know who-where-what is special about this and that group, and suggest its action of the faction as a whole.
Ah, and I also think that Interspace com. would fit greatly, it really is Liberty base, lawfull, Sirius-wide trading and insurance company.
No more "critique" from my side there.
Is there any chance you will swich the ID in close future?
Looking forward to your reply,
Elvin

I personally think we should use an ID like IC or Universal etc too. Seems better than an ordinary freelancer ID

@ Elvin: We have already changed the ID to Freelancer. As of next version, there WILL be a cargo limit, but if it members really feel the need for a powertrader, we can always make new characters, eh? We also make a point of stating that we are not regular Zoners, and we do not as a rule engage people unless they've done something to offend us first.
@ JBauer: Universal Shipping/Interspace have restrictions which would impede us a lot more than is necessary. Freelancer allows gunboats, which we can use as flagships, anti-cap and anti-missileboat. Freelancer also allows the collection of bounties, which I find is well within the RP of an Armed Traders group.
@ Asgardian: Plan on reworking ranks, making the Special Ops honorary positions or something.

Ok well some of your members are having trouble finding the Freelancer ID so i'll give you the location of the ones i know of.
SPOLIER BELOW
Ok Planet New Tokyo // Planet Houston // Planet New Berlin // Deshima Station (In Shikoku) // Rostock Station (In Omega 15) // Sheffield Station (In Manchester) ohh and New London all have the ID’s from my knowledge so if I am wrong and there is a big chance of that P.M me and ill change it and add the change to my Big Book.
Hope this was of some help.
@JakeSG----I have changed the name of my bomber to suit my trader better, that and marx is already a LPI so i've had to change RP
EDIT: I signed up to skype but well it fails ....... My ISP blocked skype does that mean Optus doesn't like Skype
