Corsair - Zoner

[Slavik]

As both a corsair and zoner freeport administrator this situation gets boring. The corsairs need the zoner freeports in the area as much as the zoners there need the corsairs.

The corsairs use Freeport 5 as their cover ID, a lot of smugglers used to base themselves out of freeport 5 as a cover. The zoners need the corsairs for their o2 and water. And lets face it, for the hessians its also a supply source other then stealing it from Rheinland or getting it somewhere else in Rheinland.

Lets face it, I dont come into your house, smack your mother and then go hide at your neighbours without them knowing. That is how it is right now.

Some factions understand that due to diplomacy they can not base their forces out of a freeport to go raid/pirate/kill others near it.

Corsairs don't use freeport 1 as a piracy base. Freeport 4 is not used as a base for hackers. Xenos and Unioners dont use freeport 2 and neither do the navies. You won't see corsairs docking on Fp10 and staging raids from there (others might, I know).

The only bases that suffer from these problems are Freeport 5, 9 and corfu base. If everybody would just think a tiny bit they'd understand that you only see Bounty hunters base themselves there(lore wise). Heck I'd even go as far as saying, sure a few mercs. Why not.

However, they should know damn well that running to these bases whilst getting shot at would get the defences of the base in their face as well. Lore wise there is a no-fire zone and people should get that!

FR5'ing is a viable solution for people that break the NFZ and if the "zoner factions" would be willing to get that done there would be no problem at all. Heck, if there is another way for zoners to FR5 people it would've been a lot easier.

Lets face it, lorewise this conflict makes no sense, lore wise this problem would not exist!
