So in the last time i´ve attracted attention to the situation in Rheinland:
We´ve got a massive pirate Problem, not only in the border systems, that would be normal, but they comming into the key-systems too. They already fly around in Berlin and take out traders, polices and militarys.
That is a massive threat to all who flying around Rheinland space.
It shows the disability to arrange a organized police-force and fall back on their leaders. That had to stop! It could not be that the military is able to arrange a massive assault on Texas (last Sunday) but aren´t capable to protect their own boarders.
So this is a call to arms for Rheinland police and the military. We need to protect our boarders, or our space will get more unattractive to traders and miners. So it will decreasing our economic power.
For the beginning we should concentrating on our key systems, to guarantee save journey to our population, traders and companys. Then we could take care to the boarder systems. Especially those who touch liberty space.
Also our leaders should take care of that problem and solve it, or they don´t deserved to lead!
So who would like to help to make Rheinland save again and bring it to its original power? It can´t be that we fall into chaos, so the RP-Play would take massive damage. Order is the key to RP, so we should take care of it!
Any suggestions about that? I would like to hear other opinions about that and proposal for solutions as well.
I think we should force all the players of the police and military to patrol the main systems for some hours, every day!
On a serious note, people have lifes and also better things to do than just playing here. So does the pirates. Which means that, when, say, the pirate player is available, the military player
isn't, and vice versa, which result in pirates pirating without big opposition, or military patrolling without the opposition of pirates.
Or the player online limit of the server itself. Point is, sometimes there are more unlawfuls than lawfuls, sometimes the opposite happens. As for now, i would suggest, if you didn't already, to get in the Emergency chat, so you have more chances to call for help if someone is around and willing to log.
<div align="right][font=Palatino Linotype]Pirates? Who said "pirates"?
ENGAGING ALL HESSIANS, ESPECIALLY RF!
On a more serious note, Valinor is totally right here. From my own point I can add that the balance between unlawfuls is also helping here. The same Rheinland got the Hessians which do not tolerate the random piracy and claim to be honest revolutionaries - therefore they may seek for the generic pirates and pirate groups on their own - while the Rheinland Military or Federal Police players are not around.
If you have the motivation, you can always either join the existing factions or create your own group with a specific goal, such as protection of the certain mining operations, trade routes or anything. I remember such factions being created all around the Sirius and being considerably effective, especially in the systems with mining operations.
EDGE| bounty hunters, Venator Private Security, West Rheinland Fleet (sorry, gentlemen, I can't recall the proper german spelling) - all of them concentrated the effort on solving certain issues and succeed in it. Once again, playing in groups is fun and teamwork is the best thing you can get out there.
No way to force lawfuls. Its common problem. Get a group. Common answer.
Use common sense instead. NO matter how ossim uber pirates are, shouldnt pirating be hit n run, cargo or cash? Not camping line for hours knowing that lawfuls can be detected via player list and you can quickly run away not based on anything but metagaming and before that, there is nothing a major house can do to you while you camp their tradelane.
LOL!
Actually, this actually fits the style of Rheinland, where they've been claiming for years and years that everything is under control, when in reality it isn't and most of the military manpower is a facade.
You should rather scream about LNS coming there, since the Liberty Navy unofficials rather often move to NB and mortar the Ring and so on. And not only GB or snubs, I mean the real big crafts.
Don't worry about pirates, it's not unlike everywhere else, look at New York.
Military Capitals should be your problem rather.

Capital ships are rare and they dont come often. Only got one time that they invaded Rheinland. But it´s the same on the other side, Rheinland comes to Liberty also.

One time ?
I had a week, in which me and some other LNS and even [NG] went into NB and mortar'd the ring for the lulz so to speak and also, the message like 'In the name of the Republic of Liberty I claim this as Libertonian space' I hear it quite often...

rare...
ha !
But:
The BS cares only about the enemy BS or forces who get involved into the fight (by free will), i havent seen them pirating transporters. I got only harmed if i transport forbidden cargo, and thats all right for me. I know the risk i was taken to delivery thos... so unlucky for me. Or when i played police and another fleet attacked us.
So thats i know so far, mayby i´ve got lucky don´t get involved in other things. I can only complain over things i experienced.
If Navy forces act like you told there shoud be more overwatch by the admins. Is not the job of the navy to act like pirates or terrorists.
But nothing get solved if Rheinland invaded Liberty so they provide a counter attack and so on. Is fine for me if they take out their conflicts in the border-systems. Damm we got enough of them to take their pathetic battels to spaces who no one get harmed. But it´s war and war has his one face it seems.
Last days there where a lot of controls and i only get pirated in the outer-systems. The key systems where save or you get quick help from police forces or the milatary.
I don´t complan about pirates, also they lower my profits i like the thrill. They belong to the game, but when you get hunt down in every system you pass it´s not funny at all.
Also if you get pirated infront of New York or New Berlin thats a littel inconsequent for RP gameplay:huh:
