Zoners get shot at all the time and get pirated all the time. that's never been a problem.
The problem that occured is that a number of inconsiderate actions were taken against people as players, not characters.
Once more, to do something as stupid as passing through Bretonia at a time when no players are around, I contacted the player who RPs as the leader of BAF and said, "this is such and such event, and we're wondering how you feel about us RPing it and passing through your turf, what are you thoughts."
And that was absolutely nothing compared to what happened today.

What, a TAZ battleship shot at one of our bombers sitting still, then got chased off? Or a bunch of other Zoners then decided to jump us because we were hunting Corsairs?
Mossad took Eichman out of Argentina without anyone noticing they were there
Good point.
All I see here is an idiotic attack on the wrong party for unfounded reasons. Instead of pissing off the zoners, and causing loads of political issues for your 'country' (house), you should have just kept dealing with the Corsairs themselves on an individual basis.
Let's use another analogy here... You're an soldier, and you're at war with terrorists. You know terrorists are using civilian houses as shelter. What you're doing is killing the civilians hoping it will change things, when you should be sticking to dealing with the terrorists themselves.
Is there not a single brain cell to split between your entire faction?
And yet, Its -tottaly- understandable that a faction with another faction's leader name in their name DEFIANTELY FOR SURE isnt related in any way whatsoever...

I agree, however you have to take into account the possibility that some people might just not have the foresight to do this. In which case the solution isn't to go and start a forum trial, but rather to PM that person to sort out the details, and sort it out in RP. My opinion on this particular incident is that both sides are in the wrong. One more than the other however.
Charles and I didn't want to shoot at anyone. We came on the scene, a bunch of folks laughed and said how they wanted to collect some more Zoner bounties and went for it. We never had the chance to type anything.
The thing I was refering to was actually the bounty itself.
Yes, both sides screwed up. I will agree on that.
So then, how are we as players going to sort this out?

USA - IRAQ war is nothing more than a idiotic president looking for weapons of mass destruction where there actually were none. There ARE Terrorists there and it is a victory that it was wiped of them, this is not an accurate analogy.
