Earlier this afternoon I arrived in Omicron-74 and set down at Lividia for some servicing and refreshments. It was quiet, no problems to report.
Just about an hour ago I launch from the station to notice that both the ZA bases were at their highest alert status, and that even I, a Zoner, would be fired upon if I approached close enough.
Its been a while since this has happened and I must denounce this aggressive act as excessive. I have already learned of non Order ships that have been destroyed already.
I plead to the Zoner Alliance to prove their intent by returning to their previous stance and demonstrate that they are willing to show some restraint for the sake of the civilian population that may become collateral damage.
Even a 24 hour cease fire would give more ships time to become aware that they may jump into a hot jump zone if they attempt to enter the system.
In the meantime, I'd like my ship the Arcturus added to the safe list. I do not want problems with the alliance and would like to see some olive branches extended here. If not, you lose what shred of credibility you can muster to your defense over all of this.
