There are a number of bases built near jump gates and planets. Bowex base in New London; Krupp base in New Berlin; IMG base in Omega 3. Several are at or near Jump Holes as well (Dublin and Cambridge just to name two).
I don't see an issue with any of these. If you don't have the reputation to be at least neutral to a base, try contacting the base owners inRP via a comm thread. Griping about it OORPly without even trying to do it inRP is lame.
It was just an opinion and I respect the opinion of others converse to mine. There /is/ an awful lot of good that can come out of it all but sadly from what I've seen it should have at least been something done via a minor SRP authorisation to at least prove it will be roleplayed. Otherwise though you are quite right about contacting people on an in character basis though as you can see by now that is simply not going to happen in this case as a result the faction in question.

The main problem here is a Hogosha base in front of New Tokyo, which is actively hurting GMG players. That is something the Kusari government could (and probably should) put the hammer on. Openly firing on trade vessels in New Tokyo orbit could cause the entire Hogosha syndicate to be declared unlawful - it's quite frankly, silly.
Try to assign consequences. Make excrement hit cooling device and all that...
Probably one of the most informed posts in this thread. I am glad someone in the administration understands the gaping flaw in a Hogosha base outside New Tokyo.

As for your little contribution, AeternusDoleo, we're not the farmers, and the government won't do a thing about this. There is money in the right pockets, inRP and ooRP, and Hogosha will NOT be turned unlawful.
Unless ofcourse you're looking for a way to retcon the entire hogosha faction. And that sure is what you've been building towards as devs. We'll keep fighting to prevent this.
As for the GMG person. One way off the planet, is to unmount your ID, mount a recruit ID, go to the bar and find a man in a suit, offering a bribe, then go to your own space where you belong.
And then don't come knocking in new tokyo again. As the NPSs like to say.. "We don't like your kind around here, Gaijin."
The GMG have every right to trade in Kusari. The GMG have a long history with Kusari too. As I said before, New Tokyo is the lawful capital of Kusari and if your base is shooting lawfuls then that is a major issue. No amount of money in the right places can deal with the fact that the station is harming what should be considered valuable allies to the Kusari people in this time of strife after the Gallic betrayal.
I don't think theres really any reason to assume they are trying to retcon your entire faction though honestly if all of you act like your post suggests I'd have a jolly old time should it occur. You cannot simply use the excuse of someone being a 'gaijin' to essentially grief and troll someone for making what should be a perfectly legitimate trade route into Kusari. Your factions may be hostile but I believe your ID's have had to have clauses placed on them to ensure that this kind of behaviour does not occur outside of what should otherwise be common sense.
What I'm trying to say is that just because your faction was something in vanilla that should mean nothing can occur that would change your faction from what it is now to something totally different.
Edit: Fixed the one or two typos since apparently making a few mistakes offends sir Yuki. Seriously, find some better points before having a go at me for a mistype or two.
