' Wrote:I find it nice to see how the current SCRA administration views the reasons for the Corsair/SCRA split.
Most of them weren't members when it happened, or even playing on the server. A few months ago when I explained that the SCRA and Corsairs used to be allied, loads of people in the chat were fairly shocked.
Just to say, as a point of interest, right now the SCRA is going with the following: Slaves, Cardamine, Artifacts.
Until recently, about a few days ago, this was the law in Kusari:
Quote:Shipping of the following list of goods in Kusari is illegal
Cardamine
Liquid Cardamine
Slaves
Counterfeit Software
Gaian Wildlife
Black Market Munitions
Synthetic Marijuana
Human Organs
Refugees
Nomad Materials
The export of the following products from Kusari to the Taus is restricted to Samura, Kishiro (ID+IFF).
Plutonium
H-Fuel
Deuterium
MOX
Nuclear Devices
Military Vehicles
Light Arms
Ship Hull Panels
Engine Components
Optronics
Friendly and neutral groups may request a license to export these products to the Taus with the exception of Plutonium and H-fuel.
That's just the law, let alone the unlawful contraband seizures.

Tizonas and Osiris', then they all went "OOoooh, well yeah of course".

That is exactly why I am so interested in the topic. I find it cool to figure out how lore is passed down through the generations of Discovery.

Badly? :lol:
Besides, most of the old stuff was putrid crap. Probably best to let it die.
A faction that has a zoi for the whole map shouldn't be able to do anything other than talk at you in funny accent.
It's especially ridiculous that they would be able to engage anybody and everybody at whim. Forget about whether it may or may not be abused (which it will) the idea that they can initiate pvp against whoever they choose at any time or place of their choosing basically elevates the value of their game time above everybody else.
FURTHER compounding the absurdity is that EVERYBODY ELSE would be restricted in their retaliation by their own ZoI and ID limits.
So basically we're talking about giving a few players the ability to initiate PVP whenever and wherever they want, then logoff when they are bored because they ran everybody else off the server.

What about Bounty Hunter Battlecruisers in California with RM tags and Corsair turrets? That's all Discovery's past. Same with blatantly stupid things like the AW/Corsair wars, and so on and so forth. I'm not suggesting a retcon. I'm just suggesting that they're gracefully forgotten.

People should never forget their history, it is the story of how they got to be who they are today. The more you understand your history, the more you understand why things are the way they are now.
