So, Slayor, you haven't answered the question. Why is TAZ on the "enemies" list while the Zoners as a whole, which are not listed and therefore neutral, considered enemies? Junkers aren't pirates, they are collectors, scrappers and the like.
Why are you allied with the RHA? We haven't entered any agreements with you. I wouldn't suggest using our ships /equipment either, as I don't see any valid forum roleplay or any justification for them. If you're junkers, you should use junker equipment. Junkers are in business relationships with many criminal factions - they're not allies or best friends.

Oh, well then, go right ahead and do so. I better not catch them landing on a Freeport.....ANYWHERE or on Canaria!! But still, the question remains, they have Zoners listed as neutral but TAZ listed as enemies.

Pretzels are empty carbs. You need protein, my friend.

I don't see the TAZ mentioned in the original post; the author likely already changed it.
Second, my interactions with Legacy players so far have been so-so. However, I have yet to see them break any rules in person, which is more than can be said for a lot of players, including several who get more credit from the community than these guys do.
Putting a forum post up and taking suggestions from the community is certainly a step in the right direction. Just be warned, however, that the Junker establishment, like most established factions, don't like seeing new people on the block changing the status quo. If you pirate, be sure to do it subtly, and also be sure to set your diplomacy hostile to any groups or ID's that you choose to pirate.
' Wrote:I'm not going to jump on your back like everyone else here. But I have questions.
- Why do you use the Junker IFF/ID? You don't use the ships much and you've got your own RP that's very far from what Junkers do. I'm going to be nice and not assume that it's because Junkers have bases everywhere so you can visit every house and enjoy the massive ZOI.
- Tech usage. White does not mean right. This is why I campaigned to have most pirate tech moved to white/red for us; seeing Junkers with a mishmash of pirate faction guns never fails to irritate everybody. If you're Junkers, use Junker/Civilian only and patch up your relations to the Zoners/IMG as you need their bases to purchase said civilian guns. Note I said Civilian guns. Using IMG tech might get you shot in Outcast space.
- You NEED to get your guys to conform to a single mold in terms of ships and gun usage, and one that isn't going to get you sanctioned. The fact that the admins are both nice people and overworked has been in your favor thus far. That might not be for much longer.
- You can't be friendly with the Corsairs and Outcasts. Trust me on this.
Aside from that you're clearly making an effort. Get your guys together and get rid of the silly guns and ships mixture or you'll continue to be dismissed by the majority of the community.
I was unaware that Junkers attacked one another regardless of the circumstance. Has this changed?
Also, who authorized you to put out that grand edict?
I think the ban was just one person that is quite angry at legacy for some reason or another. Its been mentioned to several members the difficulties said party has made for legacy before such as unprovoked weapons fire and such even when other congressmen told them to stand down.
Also Legacy is new to this server, give it some time to mold and shape itself it behaves a helluva lot better then some people and it's have improved hundrefold from when Legacy was first started here.
That would give you a reason to pirate in the rest of Sirius, then retreat to where no-one could find you. But dont expect that other Junkers will come to your aid.
You would also have allies within the Royalists in Gallia. You would be sort of like their Privateers.
Either that or 'choose a side'. By that I mean choose a House like Bretonia or Liberty, then base from there and pirate in their enemies turf.

Holy smokes, Friday!
That's a great idea. Not to dictate to the Legacy folks or anything, but this could be a great way to go for an aspiring Junker faction
On another point- the other posters do make a good point about using techs from so many different sources. It looks much more professional to have things standardized, although as Junkers standardization might not be the top priority.
