FR2 doesn't allow factions to enforce non-canon laws or orders. It does allow factions to enforce canon laws and orders. Thus, any GRN that is intentionally allowing Sirians into Gallia is not only breaking lore and canon, but established Gallic law and would be persecuted as such.

' Wrote:[...]At that time, the society of Gallia was divided into two major parties because of the recent discovery of human colonies of Sirius sector, a discovery that was made public in 590 AGS. The majority supported the Crown in their efforts to isolate the House from Sirius, build up its military forces, and strike against the unprepared colonies of Sirius when the right moment came. [...] The minority supported the breach of isolation and establishing contacts with the governments of Sol. Among the voting part of the population, the proportions of the groups were about 5 to 1. The logical course of action for anti-isolationists was to try to reach Sirius on their own. [...] After the failure, the most active anti-isolationists chose to regroup and form the Gallic Liberation Movement.

If you want to do that, go play as Council. But if you're going to play as GRN, then actually play as GRN, rather than a Council character in a GRN suit. Don't play the faction until you've read the infocards and news articles about it.
As for Corsairs, Gallia still fully considers you hostile. This has not changed. Whether or not it does in the future, is something we deal with in the future. As it stands currently, you're hostile, and thus, there is no reason to remove the rephack at this time.

Quote:As requested by a number of players, we have removed the rep-ninja on the GRN and GRP NPC factions with respect to the other NPC factions.

All new ships will start out hostile to the GRN and GRP. However it is now possible to improve your reputation with respect to these factions so that you can operate and dock in Gallia.

So no actual response then.
Not all NPC factions can improve their reputation currently.
It seems the rep-ninja is still place with some NPC factions. Was this on purpose or was it an oversight?

...and yet you felt it necessary to do exactly that...
This suggests that infact corsair were an oversight and yes, I was asking specifically with regard to Corsairs.
With the final quote in mind, I'll just wear it, with or without Cannons input as frankly, I grow tired of people giving their opinons and not actually knowing.
Despite my argumentative friends rants and to put his 'mind' at ease, corsairs have nothing to take (artifacts and organs being illegal and without market) and very little to come home with except tobacco and wine (loss makers but good RP) and cryocubes.
I am not unhappy either way, I was asking and have been only asking, simply to clarify the original post.

As regards who is hostile and who is not and "a number of players" that requested this, two of the three NPC factions involved never asked for it. How odd. Still, I don't know the views of the GRP so I couldn't comment further on that.

@ Dab and any one seriously interested.
I apologise if I appear curt in this post but this has gone on now for so long with people just guessing (I include faction leaders, admins and now moderators) that I really no longer care. Feel free to pm me an answer if one is forthcoming but I won't be returning to this thread.

' Wrote:I see where you are coming from, and I think admins removed rep-hacks only for trading factions, but yet GRN will shot Sirians that are found in Gallia and have no permit, That's their role-play. No matter what ship said Sirian is flying.
