What you're telling ms is that none of our technology has been upgraded since the beginning of freelancer and none of the GMG has ever advanced other than mining and selling Gas. We all know in the real world *RP* GMG would improve and expand. Isn't that's what's happening here?
I'm agreeing we've picked a large very long distant station away from our home, but why can't we use Kishiro or USI to fill our base with stock along side DSE indies? - Or are we still at the stoneage here?
-- See, things with freelancer was born in 13, if freelancer 2 adapted, things would improve and things would develop. Why because the game cannot develop we cannot develop new lore and increase foreign adoptions and increase business for ourselves?
Obviously the bidding continues and we can pull out at any stage but I did it to raise a question. Can we change? or does the GMG live in the stone age still, yet Samura are building Jump gates.
The conversation must go on....

What I find weird on possible purchase of Swellendam by GMG| is that like two months ago you were not interested (at least it seemed so) in buying Otemachi POB which is in Okinawa, was in auction and GMG| didn´t have any POB at that time. Then, month ago, you were unable to fulfill even your inRP role of gas exporter when you complained in this post to owner of POB in Okinawa that the base is full and you can´t store more gas there so he should find some haulers to carry it out. I was really surprised when I saw that because I always thought that this is why GMG has Kujira transports - to export their gas to customers themself, not by hiring other corps for that job. But I said to myself "okay, maybe they want to focus on mining and patrolling only because they are not interested in trading".
Now you suddenly want to expand to far distant territory, run and supply POB there and be involved in ore mining business. What means a lot of trading (especially when we speak about such grind as POB supplying). It will also create weird situation when GMG| won´t have their own POB near mining location for selling their own raw gas/ore (like many mining factions have) but will own POB which will be quite unrelated to their main business.
