Completely OORP BS like this base will always happen if you know people(IE having both lawful/unlawful chars that just somehow trade bases). It is becoming to much like all the other failed Freelancer servers. Just a power gaming til we chase the others away server.
Your right Govedo13 i have been here since 2006, I have taken a few small breaks, but have chars with over 1000hours on them. I have supported many, got many started in past, funded factions with billions, but no matter what the server is going to the power gamers steadily. It has gone from my most favorite game/past time, to well....this! I come on, find out my chars are now useless due to power gamers shutting down bases/systems/factions/ships whatever. It is no longer "FREELANCER" or "DISCOVERY" it is kiss someones ass, or you cannot play here. It is kiss someones ass to play a certain faction/group. It is kiss someones ass to play certain ships.
I am betting before long even police/navy/corps will be off limits unless you kiss someones ass to join them. It is sad, and killing what was once the best game server on the web.
Admins/mods you can lock this. I no longer care enough to even discuss this anymore. I will just delete another char that has had his RP fracked by the power gamers.
Well, haven't post anything in the forum since i started to play on this server. Actually, I haven't played for much long time. Yet, seeing this thread I got the same feeling. I also sold my bretonian train to the NPC, because i can not pass new tokyo safely. Since I haven't keep up with the information on the forum, the station appeared all of a sudden. Later on I found out the info about the base. And I delete the character and make a new start, I just stay out of all these rep fixing, for the fear of someday there might be another Itabashi station on my routine trade way. So i get one corp rep merely friendly to buy its ID, and leave the rest untouched, I don't know if it is against the rules. Having checked the rules, it seemed ok whether you got the IFF or not. Sometimes you want to complain, that's normal thing. For me, I don't like the way the base being built, but it is none of my business. This is a free to play server, they got rules, got admins and contributors. I played it for nothing, if someday i can't stand it, just leave it. So, I agree with you.
As a bretonian you're lucky you can pass through Kusari at all since it is illegal for just about any bretonian ID to enter kusari aside from one. That said you can buy a hogosha bribe on just about any samura base and on new tokyo itself.
I wasn't using a bretonian ID. I used the Interspace commerce ID, well I knew it was not right. But at that time, I was a totally noob. And fortunately for me, no one stopped me for a liberty corparation using a bretonian train. I had the thought of keeping good/neutral relation with all the house authorities for a better trading environment, but it turned out to be a joke.
