Tau-23

[Ceoran]

Nah, if you noticed I sold all of my OCs a long time ago.

I got a few IMGs, tho.

Also, old pic is old:

Old pic is indeed old, but I can remember that fight. It was actually a spontaneous set-up one, which makes maos comment even more fail beside him not having been there and not know that there was a total of 3 CR battlestars in that fight... Among lots of Viper Mk2s.

Spazzy's picture is saved for the future generations of mankind to enjoy.

Also, you'll notice that T23 is almost always a gankfest. When it isn't a swarm of CR bombers that decide that five isn't enough to take out a pirate transport, it's a pair of Ranseurs and ten tridentes chasing a nyx.

Probably won't help that Order and BHG CORE are moving into the region in preparation for that Gallic mess, or that the Gallic unlawfuls feel so bad about being gallic that they move out to antagonize people in the taus. Oh, and let's not forget the odd Council Cruiser that goes OMG OUTCAST ENGAGING!

Don't forget about the odd privateer that decides that his mission of disrupting Kusari trade involves shooting at IMG miners that are actually mostly exporting niobium to Rheinland.

Also, KNF, GC, Hogosha, and a mix of others have been known to grace the Taus with their presence, though usually they're off in Leeds.

Long story short, T23 is a huge melting pot of people that have a reason to shoot at each other, but are too scared to shoot at each other until they're confident that they have more numbers than the other. It's a natural conclusion to what's been happening, and it's a vicious cycle for which no particular party can be exclusively blamed.

OH! Almost forgot that TAZ and junkers also frequent T23, but only for trade and they're usually either quietly trading or busy getting shot at - though I haven't ever seen them ever return fire or anything.

No surprise Zoners don't shoot back, all they can try is to ram the attackers to death (and as some random avatar tells it even works sometimes). But that post describes the overall situation pretty well. Situation is pretty screwed there and all sides are doing it wrong. Which makes it kinda impossible to solve since you can't start in all involved parties at the same time. If you start in your own, they'll not listen because the other side will not improve. If you try to talk to your enemy, your "own" kind will stab you in the back and launch ten gunboats on a lone fighter not half an hour after you managed to get through to the other side... Been there, done that. Pointless.
