How a player faction excludes a characteristic of the NPC faction

[Syrus]

I have fought in many different places, with different factions against different factions.
IMG/CR vs OC, RM vs LN, Bret vs Kus, ... vs Pirates, Order vs LN / BHG, "Pirate" vs LN / others, etc. etc.
And of course. Corsairs vs Zoners, as a Zoner.
But the last one is different. Completly different.

This all started with some yelling of "yalalalalblabla" and "Let's shoot some Zoners". And those attackers forgetting about their other six wars. (If you count KNF, which actually should be hostile to you, though not in a state of war...mh...maybe very unfriendly at least, seven.) They fight against Red Hessians and Allies / SCRA, against Outcasts, against Bretonia, against GMG, against Rheinland, against BHG (though this war is currently "on hold")...Did I miss someone?
Well ok - I can see how Bretonia is busy, but you still want Cambridge, don't you? Would be far better than a lousy Freeport. Rheinland isn't attacking your territory and you aren't really attacking Rheinland. The GMG shouldn't be left unnoted - you may remember them beating Rheinland in the 80 year-war. And the BHG has a truce with you.
But you still got the Red Hessians, the SCRA and the Outcasts attacking you on at least two sides.
And then you start attacking your supporters?

And even when they RP'd with you - even RPing their stations getting damaged ... what did you do?

I know you got reasons to attack Zoners in Theta - would have happened on the long term. But that would probably take some YEARS, your wars would have to settle first. YES you got a military might, but iRP it should be occupied with attacking OC, SCRA, RH, GMG, Bret, etc etc...

Ah...I feel like I'm repeating the stuff all over again. Well...

You may RP all you want. But what you RP is the same as I would start RPing some ship coming from Earth to Sirius. It makes no sense. That's my opinion about that war. You aren't Germany in the '40s, who just decided they haven't had enough enemies.

Imo the moment when you can start attacking Zoners without "harming yourself" won't come in this mod, without you getting some supply-lines running and at least a neutral status to one of the houses (and not only their not-really-criminals). And that would require not just some "sneaky Samura transports bringing you food".

(I won't even start to mention something about FUEL for your ships...that's something other factions would have problems with too...Everyone seems to keep forgetting that fact.)

So yes, I said it a thousand times in a thousand different ways, why I think this war isn't possible iRP.



I think I can remember seeing some Corsair wreck, I think it was somewhere around O-50...It said something about that Corsair attacking Zoners and being killed by Corsairs for doing so. If I have time to look for it, and I find it, I may quote it here. Anyone please explain to me, how the situation would change that quickly, when I find it.


EDIT:
And I must add one fact many of you are forgetting...
We are all playing this game for fun. We are all players, equal, all playing the same game.
Some for other reasons than others, but still for fun, since it's our free time we are investing into that game.
Remember that fact. And think about it, before your actions. Think about your behaviour towards other players.
Keep RP in RP.
