SO who were the ZONERS???

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

I hope youre not insulting the australians there, also they came from no ship.
They are the refuse, the ones who couldnt quite make it, youll find that some zoners on freeport 1 (the one in omega 3) talk about how they used to be BMM or something of that ilk, they came from no ship, they left society, and became thier own society. They are, the Zoners.

They're the people who refused to live by the "constricting" morale codes of the Houses.Like on one station they talk aqbout how a new Liberty Law saying any Zoner who deals with a criminal is a criminal and will be apprehended if they enter Liberty space. They say that thats the sort of attitude that drove them away from Liberty and the other Colonies

Back on the question...

I read something like this in a rumor :

"We got outlawed by the colonies but we will be back to destroy them, we already have ** factions (sorry can't remember the names or numbers) under our control. We will be back."

Kinda reminds me of a quote line from a movie I once saw .....

Arania: One message does not constitute spam

On the original question, I always thought the Zoners just wanted to be friendly with everyone, and allow free trade, so they set-up the Freeports.

The idea they want to take over the universe does not sit with me, but then I haven't seen that rumour in FL - so who am I to say what they are going to do, I'm not a Zoner

Anyone ever encountered a female Zoner? I don't recall any. If they are all men, it doesn't bode well for their future ...

@vektrix:
Merely making a point of saying that it could have degenerated into spam.
now let us forget that.

Zoners are basically outcast of society who have no allegiances with any faction (or enemies for that matter) but they have very weak ties with the IMG and Xenos. (around 0.01)
They believe in free society and as such run (by house laws) illegal bases outside house borders that cater for everyone and anyone.
Very useful if you ask me.

And as a final comment:
ZONERS RULE!!

Stop talking about the Assies. England rule the rugby, Austrailia rule the cricket.
Why not insalt the french or something?


The zoners (odd name for a peaceful people) are people from any of the houses that working in the borderworlds, out of the chaos of daily life.

Zoners rule!

They saved my ass a number of times by letting me dock. About the women....
Can't seem to remember...But if they are friendly (or neutral) with most factions, there are bound to land some Golden Chrysantemums there....

Would you take a cardamine addicted militant femanist for your wife?, talk about self harm.
I'm inclind to agee with the social outcast view, the zoners have a pretty sweet deal to, like living in international waters. Though a lot of factions are meerly tolerating them at the moment, I know the Corsairs aren't to happy with Freeport 9 being so close.

And, I'd hardly call scoring a field goal when tied with less then 30 secs on the clock 'ruling rugby', the Rugby Final was an awesome game and could of gone either way. You're right though, Aus rules cricket, which was introduced into Aus by the English, teacher got whooped by the student there.
