Why, what are they, hm? Soldiers? A vast military decided to act without the supervision of the houses? Because ZA seem to act like one, along with it's "Lord-Commander". No, Zoners are a diverse group, by no means united to an extent the term "Alliance" suggests in ZA's name.

Quote me saying such in this thread. Or cut your lies.

You claim not to select opinions, then you do pretty much that, categorize yours as the "true ugly reality" while you discard mine as "my version". Thing is, your "reality" needed two months to actually being backed up by an other person, don't you think that means something?

I don't find them innocent and I've stated my reasons not to find them innocent several times already. They made their mistakes, who else should bear the consequences of those mistakes than them?

So, you are saying it's Cannon's fault then? Because he coded the system and he put the PoBs into the game, so technically he put the pistol in the hand of every potential murderer in this game. Is it his fault that people can't use them properly?

Not because of how they RP, but because how they ooRP. But yes, basically that.

Not 5 minutes, but a day can be enough for that, or at least for two core levels. Either do it fast or do it silent. But it is pretty much possible in my opinion.
On an other note, it is barely relevant, as the Phoenix were all aware of the events, but as you've seen them commenting, they couldn't really do anything against it even when the bases started to pose a threat.
(06-26-2013, 07:39 PM)Tel-Aviv Wrote: So, as I see it, and based on Quiron's response, it sounds more like Phoenix decided to do nothing more so than they "couldn't" do anything. And that's fine if they decide they don't want to police themselves that way because that's part of being a Zoner. But....decisions have consequences, and now they are obviously seeing the fruits of that decision, eh? That's why I think ZA shouldn't bear all the blame they are getting.
Not "do nothing so they couldn't do anything", but "do nothing BECAUSE they couldn't do anything". There is a huge difference between the two. As long as Official factions have little to no control over their indies, regardless of factions, those indies has to bear full responsibility for their actions.

It's not just the pinheads, it's everybody who's apparently not on the list. It's not just the AI they piss off with it, but pretty much everybody they have already pissed off in the past. But yes, as you said, it's their bases, they can do what they want, and they will suffer from the consequences of what they do. Period.

ZA seems to listen to nobody, so yep, there is really not much you can do unless Mr Udent changes his stance. But that's not something I expect him to do after all.
