Zone 21, Deathtrap set by the SA?

[Ash]

Today at around 21:55 GMT My Character Junker was destroyed by [SA]-John.Talon and three other SA officers for no real reason. I'm making this post as a warning and a complaint to the SA about it's rules and restrictions around Zone 21.

The whole event started when I was RP'ing scanning the mine designs on the border of the Zone 21 minefield about 2 or 3k from the entrance itself, when I was warned by one SA officer to leave the area due to a restricted space law set by the Liberty Navy. I must be honest and I admit I complained that I was not attempting to infiltrate Zone 21, but when he threatened to open fire I had no option but to comply.

I then began to proceed away from the minefield at a speed of 80 until I reached a point where I was 8k from the perimeter of the minefield itself. I then began to proceed towards Nofolk Shipyard at the same speed. The SA complained that I was not moving fast enough and that I was STILL in restricted space when I figured that Zone 21 was restricted Space not the space around it. Otherwise everyone who used the Norfolk->Texas Tradelane would be a Criminal. They continued to escort me and tell me I was wasting their time and blurt out the odd warning every now and again when I was clearly in free space.

I was then fired upon by one of the SA officers until my hull was almost critically damaged and half of my gear had been blown away. Naturally I retaliated by calling them "Jerks" because basically, they were. In my anger I said "Trigger happy and Liberty Navy arent good together" which is a fair comment if I may say so myself.

At that point I was destroyed.

I would like to point out what the description of Zone 21 and it's rules are. It reads:

>>>WARNING: RETRICTED AREA<<<

All information concerning Zone 21 is CLASSIFIED by the Liberty Navy and the area protected by a minefield. Any unauthorised ships attempting to breach the Zone 21 Minefield or enter Zone 21 itself will be nullified WITHOUT EXEPTION OR EXEMPTION.

1. I was not attempting to breach the Zone 21 Minefield
2. I did leave when I was ordered to
3. It specifically says the Zone 21 Minefield not the space around it
4. I was nowhere near the entrance, thus, could not even possibly think, let alone try to infiltrate Zone 21

So I take this as Murder and advise the SA to try and be a bit more relaxed with the trigger when it comes to Zone 21. And if you refuse to take my advice, well we all know where you get your target practice now dont we.
