[Zoners]Clan Request

[greendragon]

Officially, Zoners rarely travel to one of the Houses, but if they do, they find taxing them by pirates outrageous, even if they use Sigma 13 to non-diamond/niobium runs and Dragons come to act like beggars. We (I) pay dragons if we (I) use Chugoku, their home system for trading. But if they come, when I'm not trading goods that insulted them in the late months, I simply refuse to pay. Of course, I run or they destroy my vessel. If the latter happens, a debt of 5million (if the Zoners cargo bay was empty, they have to pay more, because the lack of intentions) credits is written onto a currently non-existing list, that the committer or his faction must pay. In the case they refuse to pay, we send out some big guns to let them know we have rights to trade without paying tax. Pirates are pirates, I already heard this numerless times, but Zoners aren't simply traders, Zoners are hiding unlawfuls sometimes (=almost all time)... Hunters and Corairs are both reside on Freeport 9, but they're not allowed to attack each other onboard the station. So, we except the pirates to honour our rights meanwhile we honour that their home systems are only theirs only, so we pay them only in that case. I always ask around near the New berlin jumphole for of ONLY the Junkers to use the hole for trading. If they would ever ask for toll, I would pay (of course, Zoner discount exist - we support the Junkers' presence in the Yanagi field as one of our specialities). We are very serious about our privileges... Not long ago, Trek refused to pay tax to a representative of the GCs, so I apologised in his name. From now on, if one of us refuse to pay the GCs for using Hokkaido, the one should pay reparations, or one of us. I'm serious about honoring the GCs privileges in Hokkaido, because they never acted like the Dragons in Sigma 13. I asked for permission to trade and Saigo even offered discount. I would appreciate guys, that you pay for at least the GCs, because it's very looks like, that they have honour in even piracy... however, I would appreciate it if they wouldn't send anmore programmed machines nor cyborgs to the jumpholes for taxing... well, at least we would like an interaction program installed for dealing with Zoners.

Yeah, we really don't need an own base, I personally like to be everywhere out there, but we would like to be an official group of Zoners really. I even know the trick of the Zoner rep, so another thing why the starters should know a bit about us, to find the way out to be real Zoners easily.
