Independent Capital ships vs Factions

[Shagohad]

I had this argument a long time ago.

I made a Kusari battleship character that served more as a defense ship than an assault ship. I had the proper BS ID and KNF ID. I patrolled Kusaran systems, helped traders out, and was rather friendly with everyone. Yet the KNF group got a bee up their butts about me having this ship and being in their zone of control. It angered me to see this faction become severely annoyed about this minor little thing. I wasn't hurting anyone, I was RPing, I was civil, and I did a good job.

This event won't be brought up in detail(It was peacefully resolved with no hurt feelings/resentments), but I still didn't understand why I couldn't have it. If someone is using their ship properly, then there should be no qualm against them. Instead of saying, "LUL! No BS for you becuzz you iz not in faction!" you should just make sanctions against them all the more harsh. Battleships are not toys. If treated as such, take the punishments to the extreme.
