Hi. My only experience with 0.0 is Lower Syndicate and am a little confused as to why it is not claimed. Is it simply because LS is a hell-hole of PvPers and too hard to hold or is there some (NPC?) reason it is not allowed to be claimed? I think I know how sovereignty works with POSs and all but am a little unsure of how NPC corps (Serps, Guristas etc.) fit in with all this.
There also seems to be a lot of stations in LS but I hear people complain of "too few stations in 0.0" so is this just a non-Syndicate thing? Also all the stations in Syndicate seem to belong to NPCs, in other regions is it just player-conquerable stations all the way (which is why those regions are easier to hold?)
So in summary how does sovereignty actually work? Can you just claim *any* 0.0 system (or is it per constellation? or region?) providing you have enough firepower and POSs or are there restrictions? What part do player-conquerable stations play?
Many thanks in advance.

if it's an NPC region, then it cannot be claimed and you will see loads of NPC stations dotted around.
A non-npc region has exactly 3 conquerable stations in it (hence there "there's not enough stations in 0.0" line). You can however, build more.

So only three conquerable stations and no others at all yes?
By build more I assume you mean outposts?
And finally, on the Eve map pic of what alliance controls where I see 3FA controls part of Syndicate. Is this an "informal" (no disrespect meant here guys) claim that comes about simply from living in and actively patrolling the space rather than POSs?

3FA holds an "informal" claim to a single constellation which we have lived in and defended for the last 2 years. We operate in other parts of Syndicate as well but our claim is just the single constellation. (And no offence taken since we can't make a formal claim due to the area being claimed by NPC)

Actually, Period Basis has two stations, and there is one region (Providence) which has none. -------- Shinra Director

To clarify that, we hold the constellation outside of what game mechanics will allow, hopefully factional warfare in Kali will let us change that.

Ive always thought provi having no stations is a bit odd tbh, i mean ok, its a crap region, but you'd think there would be 1 or 2 there somewhere. --------------------------------------- Welcome to eve, where 80% of the population hides behind a wall of smack while deceiving themselves into thinking they hold the moral high ground.

Before the conquerable stations were brought in, there were alot of regions like that. Seems providence got missed off the list when they were handed out.

they don't have a formal claim, they have a "we live here and defend it add us to the user-made map" claim, same as every other claim on that map in systems with NPC stations.

You cannot claim sovereignty over an NPC controlled region. You can unofficially claim the space as your own and enforce a NBSI policy on the region.
Lower Syndicate is claimed by OSS Alliance which is an unofficial alliance or corps who live in the area. 3FA and OSS have a NAP and are friendly towards each other. OSS runs a NBSI policy, so expect to get shot at in their space if they don't know who you are.
It's only the three Empire chokepoints that are considered pirate infested. MHC, 6-C, and Y9G. These systems are difficult to defend because of the JG layout, NPC stations, and proximity to Empire space. Without a full scale occupation the best that can be acheived is scaring the Pirates away for a few hours.
Outside of those systems there are almost no pirates, although there are often hostile fleets heading to attack OSS space.
I cannot remember the exact border, but I think OSS claims everything behind VV-VCR.

Technically speaking, just to clarify, that space is claimed by the Five, and the "OSS Alliance" is an alliance of those corps that rent from [5] in one way or another, either by providing defensive manpower, money, mineral support, what have you.

Worse than that you are slaves of a remedial! I bet his wallet is nice and fat with all you monkeys paying 10% tax and all you get is T1 frigates, cruisers and mods given back that you have probably mined for to boot!

Edited by: Jacinto Naysmith on 28/02/2006 19:20:21 Yes, it is just a "non syndicate" thing. In deep 0.0 space stations are far and few between, lower syndicate is kind of unique in having a large number of them.
It really is a shame that people feel the need to troll any and all threads vaguely relating to goonfleet in some way. Please go back to your caves and stop ruining topics.

Yes you are right, it's terrible . I sure pity those 1 week old players who have to give up 10% of all the crokite they pull in, sure gives them a disadvantage towards all the 1 week old players who aren't in goonfleet and don't have to pay tax on all the crokite they mine.
If only the game mechanics allowed some way to leave a corp you are not satisfied with. It is a shame you can not leave a corp in this game, leaving goonfleet with 759 angry and discontent members who would leave at the first chance they got.

I didnt say you have to, but that you could. OSS operates an NBSI policy in 'unclaimed' NPC space.

Goonfleet and likewise corps pay a tithe/fee (in their cases minerals from whats been said) to be allowed to operate in claimed space under some kind of umbrella "protection". Nothing big, nothing fancy and certainly nothing special in this game.

Stop being an idiot. If you don't like people making remarks about your killboard and it's lack of accuracy, you can ask your members not to troll here - and you can fix it.
It's a bit rich calling people out as trolls when your retarded corpmate made the first troll post in an otherwise friendly thread and got called on it. Stop being such a hypocrite.

Sig, this is not the place. Responding to trolls in a likewise fasion only makes things worse. Our killboards are hardly bug free, and I am sure they will address any issues you may have if you talk to them privately. Please stop trolling.
Unfortunately with a corp the size of Goonfleet you always get a few morons who think they are forum kings and acting like a jackass on the forums is cool. It is VERY hard to deal with people like this.
Anyway, there are very few pirates in Lower Syndicate other than those who camp the chokepoints. Past the chokepoints 99% of the people you meet are not pirates, but most will shoot at you unless you have negotiated some form of NAP with their corp/organisation.

Edited by: ZombyDog on 01/03/2006 19:35:49 I've noticed that a lot of people seem harshly critical of Goonfleet's situation within Syndicate, and I'm not sure if its because of our affiliation with the .5. in particular or just because we have been paying a "tithe" to live where we do or something else entirely. From what I gather our situation is hardly unique and it has to be appreciated that our growth as a corp would not have been possible without it. We still have a long way to go in maturing as a corp ( It is still very young in the grand scheme of things ) and Syndicate has been a great fast track to help getting there. I shudder to think how we would have faired if we stayed in empire given that we have a broad range of player types and skill levels.
A point that shouldn't be lost is that OSS/Goonfleet live in Syndicate but we are not Syndicate by any means. 3FA have a sizeable holding and they as dont maintain a NBSI ( Not Blue Shoot It ) policy and as long as you are respectful in their territory you should be safe in the space they occupy. The small section of Syndicate informally claimed by the .5. and in which OSS reside as caretakers ( The term slave really doesn't fit - we are tenants ) is a dead end constellation with a pipe of systems leading to it. There is little reason for anyone one to come to visit unless they mean to cause us harm and we have to maintain an NBSI policy to keep it secure from hostiles. Other Corps and Alliances live in Syndicate as well and have informally claimed parts as their own. Yes there is a fair bit of friction where communications break down and there are certainly Pirates that like to operate in the trade routes through Syndicate so one can assmue that it isn't safe to travel through or attempt to settle in without prior discussion with its inhabitants. Syndicate is truly lawless and there is none of the stability of a region that is entirely controlled by a single Alliance. And if you ask any of us living here - thats the way we like it.

syndicate is unclaimable,
its basically 0.0 Genesis. it has at least 1 if not 3 stations in over 75% of the region. Theres no conquerable stations, its also under the soverignty of Intaki syndicate. it got about 30 entrances to it. And millions of corps/alliances in the area. it should Not appear on the eve maps .
Its also a Hole.
