Zoner Guard Reputation?

[downding]

Haha, Asymptotic and endless, that was cute. I was slow today so it actually took me a few seconds to get it. :cool:No I just like the concept of being able to manipulate all the factions.

Just to clarify, I was asking about the zoner guard faction which I was pretty sure had different hidden hostilities/friendlies from "normal" zoners. Anyway, someone left an hint about a way to check on reputation and "empathy" using a tool off of lancer reactor. Forgot who it was, but I think it was from here so kudos to him.

It seems that Zoner Guard has (+) positive empathy and reputation with normal Zoners and (-) reputation with tons of pirates. So I assume this means if you keep bribing Zoners, you'll get friendly with the guards, but if you bribe hack pirates or attack normal zoners, you'll piss them (the guards) off. Zoner Guard has 0 in empathy for everyone but Zoner so I think that means killing anyone else won't affect your rep. with Zoner Guard.

I think I'm right if I read the numbers right, except I don't see any change with guard faction even when I bribed the zoners a few times. Did anyone ever try this or can anyone verify this? Thanks.
