I would be cordial...but Im just shocked!

I cant believe someone would even SAY that...I mean, we've specifically noted that we are NOT you, only that we help your ships whenever they need it, as well as supplying your bases. But NEVER have we claimed to BE you.

Perhaps I should be more clear. The BIA is an alliance formed when a small section of the IMG* broke off. Our goal is to act more autonomously than the IMG, going insofar as to have a miltant force which we use to patrol and guard our more high value transports. We take in more than mistreated miners...we've taken in old pirates who've been outcast from their groups, some haulers that were leaving in bad conditions...really, anyone whp needs a new start.

Can you tell us who said that?
