Year 8 Day 200 2:55	Well this was fun....
Myrr Starshine	So like I went inactive due to not having enough time, let my corp know. So today I decide to log on for the first time in a long time to find out that 12 days ago the CEO assassinated me, despite me posting I would not be able to play combine for some time. What a great community you got here..... Oh well had thought I'd give this a second shot, but now I don't think I want to.....

Ashla Ta	I have heard about you plight with Sienar Fleet Systems. Most factions are not like that: many imperial factions are however. Re-spawn when you can, I enjoyed the game more with my 3rd character - this one. If you want I can lend you a ship and stuff. If you would like some advice on character creation, let me know.

Myrr Starshine	Hi thanks :) I can't respawn for 12 more days unless the admin allow it. I got your mail too, thanks :), I might take you up on it, but alas I can't respond to the mail, it says You are unconscious and therefore can't send messages.....(meaning me not you :) ) Edited By: Myrr Starshine on Year 8 Day 200 5:36

Syn	I'm sorry to hear about your situation, but I'm not sure what your question is. This isn't the correct forum for general complaints about the game or its community. Unfortunately the respawn time cannot be reduced and you must wait it out. Hopefully you will have better luck with your second character, should you choose to continue. ____________

Myrr Starshine	Well there is no complaint forum as far as I can tell..... Anyway this sort of griefing isn't really conducive to a game. It seems Ashla Ta is nice, but I don't know. I'll have to think about it and decide if its worth a second try from nothing.

Syn	The difficulty with this sort of thing is that it is often downright impossible to determine the motive behind an execution. Historically, most faction leaders seem to be sufficiently trustworthy not to execute their personnel without reason considering that all factions have active membership requirements, but very often people have petty grudges for one reason or another and hopefully you can understand that we simply can't monitor that. The best advice, if you have reason to doubt your faction leader, would be to stay on a personal ship as soon as you've got one, or to leave faction ships and stay out of sight while you are on vacation; such precautions will also need to be taken come combat. ____________

Myrr Starshine	It would be easy to tell when last I logged on prior to last night assuming you keep login records. Anyway I'm mulling it over. I got another mail, and I thank Wilhelm for it, however I cannot reply to the mail system since my character is dead. It would also be pretty easy to confirm when he killed me, which was months after my last login. Anyway I have got some good responses. If this is how the Imperials treat folks its no wonder they are losing the galaxy. Yes Vader did needlessly kill his men, but that is also why he wasn't so succesful during the Rebellion years, Thrawn on the other hand had an entirely different philosophy. It would be better for the Empire if someone like Thrawn was Emperor, though that would take much work and require many deaths (meaning Thrawn from the Zahn Trilogy ) (Imagine if Thrawn had been a Sith Lord combined with all his natural tactical sense and ability)

Syn	The date of your death proves little more than when the individual in question had opportunity to track you down and carry out the warrant. That still doesn't give us anything conclusive in regard to motive. In the very lucky case it may be glaringly obvious based on a confession someplace or another, but in the vast majority of situations nothing so obvious exists. That is why this isn't something a blanket rule can possibly be enforced for. And you are right, of course, that leaders who execute their personnel aren't likely to be very successful. Nobody wants to join a faction if they fear their lives from their own employer. ____________

Ashla Ta	You may not be able to DM but you can e-mail me. backtothewall@hotmail.co.uk <-- I will set you up with a ship atleast to borrow for however long you need.

Year 8 Day 200 17:31	Well this was fun....
Myrr Starshine	Thanks Ashla, once I am able to make another character I'll contact you. I have a question though for Syn, Why are folks allowed to arrest people of the same faction? That seems like nothing more than a griefing tool really. I don't understand what other use it can have. I assume that you might argue that well if someone stole from the faction then you'd want to arrest them. Personally though I think it would be better to kick them from the faction first in order to limit any further damage. Just wondering what the thought is on the ability to arrest same faction, seems counterproductive and as I said a tool only for griefing.

Myrr Starshine	Thank you for your response Wilhelm, I got the DM too from earlier but cannot reply to it. Thanks.
