Corsair - Zoner

[DarthBindo]

I'm not complaining. Backstabbing provides great roleplay opportunities. But RP differs from server to server, so at the end of the day you gotta look at the infocards. And the infocards say that if you shoot a Zoner in El Paso, his Zoner friends in Miami are gonna be mad.

If we want to look at the infocards and rumours and lore, how about that Zoner bartender who's completely scared for his life after simply telling a freelancer the general direction of the Gamma hole?
But of course, that's not the point. Since then, zoners have gotten caps and fancy guard systems and lots of warships, so that particular bit no longer holds true due to player roleplay and development and lore addition and whatnot.
The Zoners have failed to roleplay their unity for a very very long time, and so we are here, having developed past that.

EDIT: On the other hand, it's part of the RP challenge, isn't it? While I was metagaming on the Comms Channel forums, I read that TAZ approved Corsair's claim over all Theta as Corsair sovereign territory. This is a great move to appease one side but screws neutrality in ways I haven't seen before. I am curious to see what effect, if any, this RP choice will have.

I fail to see how TAZ recognizing Theta screws over neutrality any more than FP1 recognizing O-3 as Bretonian territory, or Ames recognizing Kepler as shared between Liberty and Kusari.
Please explain.
