Alright, I'll try and make this as short and direct as I'm capable of.
If you really need to name your trader after your pseudo-faction, make sure you don't go make your buck inside enemy territory just because your under the guise of a mere trader, ok?
Most people in the server finance all ships they own (be it lawful or unlawful) with the earnings of the same trader. But most also are sensible enough not to rub it in the faces and RPs of their enemies. This is as idiotic as an RM tagged trader doing the Stokes/Newark run under the nose of the LSF and SA or a TBH tagged smuggler taking Cardamine from Malta to Buffalo waving at RoS and 101st.
So cut it out already and get a name change, because the whole foggy period of your pseudo-faction is expiring and your true colors are starting to show up.

Hooray!
Also, I'm of the opinion that your traders should only finance factions that they would be friendly with.
So, that means no Cardamine smugglers funding cops or Corsairs, and no Kusari traders financing BAFs, for instance.

I wouldn't go as far, blunt. Even though what you're saying makes RP sense, it's not practical. Just make a random untagged trader/smuggler to raise your credits and we can all live happily with it.

Or make one that's properly tagged and allied to your other characters. Traders should be properly RPed too. In fact, the QCO has a small flotilla of BowEx aligned ships providing funding.

Anyone flying a faction tagged trader is asking for trouble, certainly if it is stepping out of the bounds of
roleplay. If you faction tag em, make sure they have the ID and paperwork to go with it please.
I hate cheap loopholes ...

Personally, Trader or not, if I as a RepEx trader see a TBH... I do not expect them to tax me before attacking. If you are gonna tag your trader with your respective faction, accept the liabilities of doing so and expect to be treated according to your faction tag and not your ID. Just my opinion.

Well. So far as I know, the QCO is funded by bowex tagged, BD guarded traders....dont ask....there is RP there...solid rp...anyone know of a better affiliation for the M K ? please?
my SU doesn't fund anyone...hmm....
The Kitsune, Seelie and GlyphTransports work for juno....
anyways, It might be good to mention,
Try to bring your traders to your capships, not your capships to your traders.
I will demand to know why your Lib Dready is in Leeds.
'I have an appt in tau 31' is not a good answer, I will shoot you....huge mess, trust me.

Merc or Military ID, BowEx tag, seeing as Juno is a BowEx tycoon now.
Loopholing RP - Unseelie - 01-19-2008
Uh...she has other stuff too....like...Glyph is some rheinland company....Kitsune is...I forget...prolly still GC...
But, I don't want to take away the M K penchant for being pirates...and...altogether annoying...Merc IDs are rather constraining....

That is brilliant AC. Can we use that in the Server Rules post as a foreshadowing for punishment?
