getting back on course or keeping it...

[...] Corsairs would have problems without Zoner supply. This is true. Problem is, very few Zoners were actually PLAYING OUT that supply. [...]

Don't know where you've got this information from, but it's not applying to the ZTC. We've made food supplies with three, sometimes even four or five Whales about five times a weak, over a longer period of time. The effect: Being confronted with such forged facts. Do we have to throw around with screenshots just to testify how forged the pseudo-rp reasons of the Corsair players were?
Also, it's complete nonsense to expect in-game roleplay in every timezone by every group. Ironically those who are crying loudest about missing food supplies are especially those who weren't never playing in our timezone. Nobody's fault, but also no argument at all. Exploiting this fact is a pathetic example for powergaming and, to take if further, anti-social behaviour.

The second thing is being so combative, militaristic, aggressive, and defiant. Omicroners in particular on this one. You're rude, aggressive, defiant against other factions.

Nah, the problem is that some cannot stand the fact that there's quite a group of players on this server, and believe me that it's not only the Omicroners, who are not tempted to polish some preferable apples for the sake of some crappy benefit of not being targetted by lolwut raids. The basic problem here might be as well that there's abolsutely no list one could use to know who of these inventory players demand that sacrifice to compensate other stuff actually nobody can be aware of.

So, defiance is actually the best medicine for those who demand this:

3.) My advice; Contact the Corsairs, apologize,

Actually, what for? For their own faults? Sure, everybody likes that of course, but you've also explained why it shouldn't happen:

The biggest problem with humanity is our pride.

That's the reason of this permanent forging. First there was a clear miscalculation of the own limits on Corsair side, then any means the Corsair players could summon failed, and in the end the situation has worsened to an extent where they have perverted the known RP. All of that without even a justifiable goal inRP. But still everybody's wondering why I'm calling this crap.

Sure, it wasn't really fair to play the roles against Zoner characters because passivity, an important aspect of Zoner RP, is the best option to make decisions, but while they were escalating further and further without being able to reach their goals they still had enough opportunities to back off. In the aftermath of their own failures it's pretty ridiculous how fact are being forged. Okay, I consider this to be the last thing anybody can do when screwing up things.

The Omicroners have earned their reputation through their actions. If they hadn't, they wouldn't have that reputation.

Of course they did, and I'm sure that mostly those who thought they could reach their own satisfaction through senseless powergaming suiting oorp motives must be pretty annoyed to see the result of their own doings. There wasn't the slightest idea of RP when the Corsair factions denied any forum RP at the time when the [A] started to enjoy their bandwagon. The initial mistake that was made by this, and it wasn't Zoners' or Omicroners'.

There is obviously a large contingent of this community who feels you've screwed up rather massively.

The funny thing about it is that the vast majority is relying on hearsay. Or call it "neat" if you like.

3.) My advice; Contact the Corsairs, apologize, offer them support, supplies, anything you can.

Okay, what's going to come next? Just to give me something to laugh about. The demand to pay their ISP costs?
Nah, cannot work. Those making the first mistake have to make the first real step to a mending of relations. Anything else is inacceptable. If we'd have screwed something rp wise I'd be the first to acknowledge the ncessity of this step, but all of this wasn't happening based on RP ;-)

4.) There is no such thing as a perfect RP reaction.

Of course there is a perfect reaction - it's PLAYING the role, instead of hiding behind a pixelhunter bandwagon.


I understand completely that nobody likes to be confronted with his or her own mistakes but we had to apply this method in order to draw a clear line what we allow other players to do based on oorp intentions. So, I for myself understand the nature, the scope and the motives of such blames completely.

But we are not going to correct a wrong with another. It's not worth it ;-)
