wow! a restart template that makes you neutral to almost all human factions and discovers all bases and jumpholes. really? come on people. where's the fun in that?
i still think that if you start in a starflea with standardised liberty civillian rep and work your way to xeno full friendly, you value the ship more than when you restart liberty and make 4 missions. and thats just xenos.
You don't magically become neutral when you become a Zoner. When you choose the Zoner lifestyle you must work to make yourself appear neutral. This does not mean you must be neutral. Just outwardly appear neutral.
Being neutral is a two way street, you can claim to be neutral all you want; that doesn't mean others have to agree with you or treat you as a neutral party. You must work/earn that status.
All you Indy Zoners are damn lucky I don't have a billion credits to spare or you'd find a rather large bounty placed on your backs to make you work for your neutrality like TAZ, OSI, the Omicroners and a handful of Indy Zoners have and do regularly.
No Zoner restart, unless we lose the Quad Bribe once Synth Foods takes Beth over. I'm hoping it gets moved and I know there are a number of developers with Zoner characters so I figure they are taking care of it.
If you can't rep yourself as a Zoner, PM any of the Zoner faction members and we can send you a walk through. It honestly isn't too hard.
