Quote:Then they camp out in Omega-15 which is the only system that Bounty Hunters can run missions without having to deal with any House groups.

Don't know every detail about the DW/Harvester thing going on in O-15, but i have to dissagree with your reasoning. Harv's operate from Junker bases, theres a Junker base in O-15, i dont see it as camping out in the system when Junkers are thier allies and bornholme is basically the only junker base not in a main house system. One could say DW is camping O-15 because they are at Rostock, when BH missions are offered basically everywhere, but i won't, because Rostock is a BH base, and therefore a place they can and should be seen operating. Just as Harvesters operate and do missions from Junker/Corsair bases and they may be seen around them or in those systems.

BH missions can be done from just about any Zoner base (nearly all are in non-house space), and from Planet Grand Canaria, which is WAY out away from house space and in my opinion is the best place to do BH missions besides Freeport 9 or 11.

Quote:To Raekur i wasn't aware the harvesters started it but some machines tend to be automatically hostile to humans especially if they;ve been exploted.

Your right here. Terms like "Toaster" and "Must be another drone, KILL IT!!!" come to mind. Because that is the type of message we usually see, if anything at all, just before someone opens fire on us for no real reason. I also find it more than a coincidence that even when trying to RP a semi-lawful robot that dont fire on anyone first, most of the attacks come from bounty hunters or by the police/navy in house space. So its those lawful's who attacked us in the past, over and over again for no real reason, that have pushed us to becomming generally speaking, unlawful, even though we (atleast in Binary's case) are rarely the attackers.

There are several reasons robots/machines would be hostile to BH/Mercs, in the simplest form BH kill for fun/glory/profit, rather than to survive, like most living things. I would like to assume that by default robots would be lawful, programmed or wanting to protect human life unless they were "abused" and turned into killerbots. We are unfriendly/hostile to outcasts because of the cardamine and thier reverance of the nomads, an even greater threat to humans now than they ever were in SP. Could you imagine the entire cardamine fueled outcast population becomming infested because of thier proximity and tolerance of the nomads. Now that could be a BIG problem could it not? Not to mention the wild in the omega's, our preverbial backyard. Robots/Machines can't really be "infested" by a nomad so they make perfect soldiers against them. Some realise this and allow us passage, use of thier ships/bases, or even ally with us.

Zoners, in my opinion, they abandoned Gammu and the robots, and we didnt like it too much. So they get to be Neutral/Unfriendly at best. Plus the thing that happened with the harvesters made it worse. So they are Neutral in my book, as Zoners should be.

Does that make any sense at all?
