Admin Notice: ZOI changes for RM, BDM, BAF and BIS. (Feedback Time)

[Laura C.]

I wonder if people realize that this actually does not change much. This has nothing to do with disappearing of "wild west" systems as some claim. These systems could be patrolled by lawfuls before and -were- meant to be patrolled by them. Only difference is that now sometimes RM can go patrol/shoot Hessians into O-3 too and BAF to O-7, nothing more. It happens rarely anyway.

By the way, how about not trying to create wild west in systems where it does not make sense at all? It caused enough nonsense by now through rules which in fact sterilized diplomacy roleplay and over time killed several possible roleplay opportunities for intelligence factions. Omega-3 and 7 are covered by trade lanes and has corporate bases and lawful staging point, why do you think they are same like Galileo or Omega-9? Because those are these places perfect for wild west mentality, not vital systems with lawful presence which serve as super important trade route.

As soon as an ID has the ZoI, every indie can do whatever he wants to do there.
You cannot even use FR2 because as long as the players adhere to the ID, the official factions have zero say. Your roleplay is not cannon, therefore every BAF indie can park a BS at the STU gate in O7, or any RM indie can part a Turtle at the CAM Gate in O3.

Erm, people can do that even now. Up to this point any indie could park his BAF BS at Cam gate and his RM Turtle at Stut gate anyway, so what will change except used ID and type of battleship? But mainly, how often this happens please?
