thats actually a good point. as far as I know, (which isnt much, I dont follow corsair RP), the Corsairs are pretty dependant on food supplies from the Zoners.
inRP, they should have widespread hunger, economic problems, stuff like that. Not to mention civil war and riots, stuff like that, since its the current controlling body of Corsairs who made it happen.

Oh, but you're serious.
This problem has been handled in previous posts/other communication threads.
If we were angry kids, wouldn't we be crying like babies?
Lolirony
I know, right? I get the feeling that if a lot of these people had Corsairs, they'd be Q_Qing about how an unofficial faction was able to destroy their cautious stalemate with the rest of the Omegas and bring hell down upon their ears that heralds certain doom and lots of fights where they lose. Oh the irony.
...does that make the bloodthirsty PvP-loving Corsairs better players than the PvP-disliking Zoners?
I think we forget the basics: some people do not want to PVP or trade. Unfortunately for these people (among whom I include myself) just have to choose a faction, only one.
If I had the Neutral ID I do not belong to any faction, you do not doubt that would have almost all my characters. I'm here to have fun and be fun for others, it must work both ways.
Someone with less than a week as Corsair (as he said few days ago), mount an unofficial faction and decide that Zoners are not his taste and, worst of all, that veteran players (like the vast majority of Elders) will follow him. I just find it unfortunate.
Part of the blame is ours, to create factions within a group as heterogeneous as the Zoner is a mistake, a very large. Although it is also normal if within that group you have certain affinities with a remarkable group of people.
There is a clear historical and relatively recent example in Switzerland during World War II. Not a megalomaniac like Hitler attacked it when he ruled Europe, now that if you believe that the Corsairs are more blunderers than Adolfito. Houston we have a problem.
As we say in Spain there is no worst blind as those who will not see.
I have been in the TBH once upon a time. Early 4.84, somewhere around there.
I also have had an independent Corsair for over a year.

Please find a quote which I say that.

And here is the best part. If the Zoners didn't make two critical mistakes which were incredibly stupid decisions, the [A] would have been FR5'ed by the Corsairs within the first week of their existence. I promise you that.
The rest of your post was funny but completely irrelevant.
The first one was the blocking of all food traffic to the Corsairs.
Yes, here you could say that you simply couldn't do that since you were attacked by the [A]'s. But if you had read the Corsair Laws you would have seen that it's NOT allowed under any circumstances to shoot down food-shipments bound for Corsair bases. Had you during this time when we made our first attacks, only once attempted to deliver food and got consequently shot down, sent the evidence from the event to the Corsairs. We would have been screwed royally. This is why we are currently banned from attacking any Zoner transports. Because the Corsair Council were worried that eventually we would shoot them and thus I was warned in advance, else action would be taken against us.
But what really pushed it, what really made the Corsairs as a nation - utterly hate the Zoners, was when you practically started allying with their greatest enemies. You can say what you want, but if the Corsairs hear their enemies basically saying that they will assist the "Zoner friends" against the Corsairs - well there you have it. It's done and over.
So you see, the [A] didn't had to lift a finger for their agenda to be made into success. The Zoners did it for them.
Such a tragic and humorous story at the same time.

Let's not exagerate now, a faction of Civilian ID'd players still doesn't exist. If your not interested in PvP or trade then the ship restriction of that ID shouldn't be an issue...

if somebody cannot be the greatest of whatever (by his own perception of course) while longing for it a reduction of critical voices (or what he might consider to be critical) is the best way to win the match
