Was there any drama in past two years, you know any similiar stuff like with omicroners some time earlier? Or things were silent, dull and boring all this time?

To name some, there was Omicron-74 drama. Bunch named Zoner Alliance pissed Order and because they had player owned bases at two entering jumpholes (I think they still exist), there was attempt to lock the system. It ended with several days long siege, lots of drama on forums as well as ingame, some metagaming and powergaming, I think even some sanctions...and mainly everybody (like Order, some other Zoners, bunch of AI but there was more) and their mothers shooting ZA, their alts and their bases with almost everything so there were sometimes really strange things to see in deep Omicrons.

Also, some quite famous (the first one became almost legendary) quotes were made during this. To name some:

"We´re at war, no RP anymore!"

"The 50,000 Zoner Alliance Marines managed to secure all the Goals set by the Zoner Alliance High Command. (...) All Stations are now secured and cannot be used for Operations against the Zoner Alliance." (from here)

This incident caused Core, Order, AI's, Other Zoners, and certain unofficial nomads to actually collaborate against the Zoner Alliance - it was pretty remarkable - hell, even Colonials and Rhineland appeared at the scene.


In Roleplay, the issue was resolved. Ingame, the Zoner Alliance sent us all home with egg on our faces - if those bases were fired upon with a larger fleet the server would have just collapsed.

However, due to to some terrible logical fallacies the incident can hardly be considered Rp material -> as implied above it was highly degeneratory on both sides.
