The Truth about Zoners

[Lythrilux]

Lyth, People are human, who - for being human, will always give meaning to things that suit them. Zoners could be wrapped up by some form of explaination about their origin, but discovery created the zoners we have today - each seperate from another, and each willing to throw the blame on others. The zoners are much much more diverse now then they used to be, especaily with the current treatment. Until factions who claim to own the zoners do something and perhaps merge themselves, perhaps a return of some form of a unified body - things will always be in conflict and seperation.

If by diversity you mean that on one hand we have Zoners who play their role properly (official factions, CW, a few indies) and on the other we have war mongers in 'colony' ships, deep space explorers who spend their time trading ore in the houses and single entities telling entire houses to piss off like they own the place, then yeah, Zoners are diverse. That doesn't mean it's a good thing, or that it's healthy for the server and the community.

I suggested a while back that Zoner caps should be restricted to the Omicrons/Outside house space. Perhaps we should ban Zoners from house space completely? They're not really meant to be there after all.

And yet we see Zoner NPCs in house space.

Zoner NPCs in house space are an after product of Vanilla. They were created to fill the emptiness of Sirius as the player traversed across Sirius. They had no real reason to be there.
We can't really use NPCs as an argument for a player related problem anyway.
