Back on the subject of the thread, something that might be keeping average players away from Kusari is the fact that there is no real pirate faction in Kusari. The BD are politically motivated terrorists, the GC are politically motivated terrorists, the FA are politically motivated terrorists, and the Hogosha are money motivated mobsters. I guess only the FA really has motivation to raid traders on a regular basis, the other groups are more concerned with government targets.
I think what he means are some of the indy blood dragon groups. I have seen them roll out in cruisers (and even a cloaking battleship with them once) traveling to the most populated kusari systems and simply cleaning house (literally) This was lately even and just a few days ago. I have no idea who they are but I was told that some of the names of the indies were russian so they are probably one of those blue hunters group who log when they want to kill something.
Anyway before anyone starts pointing fingers. We in the AFA do consider the other party when it comes to piracy. You wont find us demanding outrageous demands just so you will decline and we can blow you up. If you do see that happen let kikatsu or me know. (we are the leaders) Behind the person you might be planning on blowing up is another player, new or old, RP focused or power trade orientated whose fun you might be ruining of by simply killing them, taking all their cargo or using the unfair 25 mill for a load of ore demand
As far as the elitist anti gaijin behaviour. Cant say there is much to be done about that. the AFA can be seen as the Xeno's of Kusari and Samura is very traditionalist / conservative. And then of course you have symphatisers in nearly all groups who do not like outsiders either.
