OK I've been asked the same questions about the fountain passport system, and I thought I'd answer the main questions here.
1. How much is a passport?
A passport is 1 mil per day per person.
2. What does a passport allow me to do?
Hunt and trade. If we find any non fa member mining in the region we will revoke the passport and proceed to escort the pod of the miner out of the region. Yes we will attack any non-fa that we find mining.
3. How long does a pass run for?
until Midnight on the day of expiry. Depending on when you purchase your passport you may get a couple of extra hours i.e. I'm sure none of the FA would sell you a passport that runs out in 1 hour!!!
4. What asurance do you have that you will not be attacked?
We run periodic patrols of all areas in fountain, and when we see people in the area that are non-FA we check that they have a passport, if not we then seek these people out. You should not worry if you have a passport. Also please if you see a patrol or a blockade at a gate stop, we will check your passports and let you pass.
5. I've heard of someone that had a passport was blown up, I don't trust you lot / I've been told tht you will take my money and then pod me on my way out in my indy.
The incident was an unfortunate mistake with our procedures. The person that was killed ran thought a checkpoint without stopping, and the people on the gate gave chase, cornered and killed the person. Once the dust settled we were contacted by one of his corp mates, and I belive that the matter was sorted out to everyone's satisfaction. We do not attack anyone that has a pass, ever.
6. So what does this passport get me?
You get the right to trade with the stations in the fountain region, and hunt the pirates. We try and stop loot thieves getting into the region and also we do not have any player pirates in the region. So for 1 mil a day you get a safe place to hunt NPC pirates (Sep Drug Barons and abouve as well as some gurestas) or have free trade with the stations down here.
If you want a passport please pop in the Fountain in game channel and ask for a passport, we can provide solo and corp passports.
Any futher questions place em here and I'll try and help as best as I can.
