Zoner whales.

If Zoners cant trade with Houses anymore, then make the Corporate Traders not using the Jumpholes.

DO NOT WANT. NEVER DID WANT.

You know, a Silent Powertrader in a Zoner Whale will be the same person in a Mastodon, Shetland/Shire, Collososs and That Kusari Train.

And I doubt the ever so awful ship sales sub-forum will be the "great escape" either. Good luck in making the switch to those who just began their powertrading career, for the experienced ones I'm sure you'll do just fine with your wad of cash.

Edit: should add that GMG is out of the house and also has the in-game RP backing of both the knowledge and use of Jump Holes. Join GMG| today! (ok shameless plug over)

Except that as members of house corporations they will have to answer to their respective houses. So they cant dance around the rules as easily. House police, military, and their respective corps can now do something about it when power traders are being retarded.

A big part of the problem with Zoner power traders is the nature of Zoners, they really have no direct control over their members. That's just how the Zoners are inRP. But the house corps do, yes they have lots of direct control.

Well, why doesnt the powertrader just get a Corporate route and not RP?

To admit it, I do not RP with my trader because I normally am doing other things.

Its boring sitting there, grinding to get the ship you WANT to RP in...

It's called roleplay.

You, and others, weren't acting like Zoners when the rules trusted you to, so now it's getting enforced. No luck.

Enforced how? Power traders don't disappear, they just move to a different faction.

I'm sure you're happy that Zoner population will be reduced to a fraction of what it was. Those Zoners that will remain are those that have always been true to Zoner RP and their gaming is now seriously handicapped.

Half of the Omegas/Omicrons are dead now as a result of Zoner trade routes being eliminated. O-49 is ghost town due to the field disappearing and the Organ-Deut run losing 30% profit. Zoners used to carry goods from Zoner stations to House stations and bring goods back to Freeports. Now that can't be done with Zone Guard IDs and those routes that remain between Freeports have become rather useless when you compare the profit that House Corp routes make.

What this just did is shift the powertraders from Zoners to Corporations. I already know of a few Zoners who are ditching the Whale in favor of Corp 5k transports.

Well same i am going to dump the useless lump away and get my self a Adv.Train.

Hardcore zoners!

If Zoners cant trade with Houses anymore, then make the Corporate Traders not using the Jumpholes. Put that in their ID or some ****.

Wassup my corp uses jumpholes in vanilla

This really says it all doesn't it? ID restricts all open trade with Zoner 5k, so what do people do? "Oh well lets see if the borderworlds have any good routes".

Oh wait no, screw that il just give up on my Zoner and get a 5k corp one instead so I can continue to make big money hehehehe ^.^

Well Enko that's the idea behind power traders.

It's true most Zoners were not roleplaying properly. Now some other faction will be doing the same thing.
