Guys , this whole thought is ridiculous ,
It has been discussed on skype (for nearly 5 hours!)
between the Corsair official factions and the current leader of the Harvesters.
All Corsair factions agreed on the following :
The Harvesters will not be randomly shot at by the Corsairs.
However for the time being they are not to enter Gamma or go within 20k of Corsair bases.
Nor are they to dock on Corsair bases (which would be a bit hard if you can't get within 20k anway ).
If the Harvesters want to join in shooting Corsair enemies outside of Gamma then they will be welcome to do so, and we can fight alongside one another.
This is already generous ,
and it is useless to continue to whine about more.
There will never be a AI / Corsair alliance.
The talk about years of RP between Harvesters and Corsairs is greatly exaggerated.
The OPG faction where they used to have ties with has disbanded.
Quote:26. Neutral warships (including Gunboat and Gunship classes) are not welcome in Corsair territory. Unless they have the Council of Elders' approval, neutral warships should be escorted out of our space and the use of force is authorized if they refuse to comply.
Quoted from the Corsair laws
Quote:6.9 You must follow the restrictions/allowances of your ID, as well as the diplomacy of the NPC faction it
represents. If your ID does not represent an NPC faction (generic IDs), then your reputation and conduct
must match the actions of your character. You must not dock at bases that your NPC faction is hostile to, or
attack allies of your NPC faction.
Note: IDs may contain restrictions/allowances which conflict with the rules. In these cases, the ID overrides
the rules.
Quoted from the server rules , anyone flying a corsair ID must RP being a Corsair.
I can Quote the whole skype conversation,
but it would be even more of a waste of forum space.
