In the lore/RP of freelancer, Rochester is a smuggling base near Manhattan where Pirates come to buy sell for profit near a core planet to fund their operations. (DUH) They would not launch attacks from this base. Unless they wanted to have it forcibly dissembled by the lawfuls. Why do you think there are no lawful NPC patrols near Rochester? The lawfuls aren't supposed to know about it, because the place is on the down low. Launching attacks from Rochester would not be something gang leaders would support. Keeping a low profile is the number one priority of real life gangster leaders. Now if you want to be a terrorist maybe a low profile is not your goal. It's simple, anyone unlawful launching attacks on Manhattan from Rochester is not following RP. I would think sanctions might be in order if they don't relent. In any event, I am not privvy to all the history of the people who play this server, and I don't get involved in any of the politics or audio chat or have access to most of the private chats that people use so maybe I am just a clueless dolt.
