You are an interesting creature XS365BT. You must be under an impressive amount of implants, far more than I can control considering mine burn up on such a regular basis. Perhaps you'll have to share your secret with me sometime.

But for the time being, what is your directive?

Where is this 'Haven' you refer to?

And what is the reason for this channel?

Thank you for answering my questions. If I may, I have some more. I find you fascinating...

From who do you receive orders from?

I have a collection of bodies I picked up in stain, some heavily laidened with Sansha tech, interested?

And, how much of your bodies free will exists and how much of you is machine?

Commune defensive systems online.
Haven combat net online.
Nano-controller deployed : Yulai.

We Return.

Oh how lovely! Do you come in a consumer model? That would be very handy for things like housekeeping and drink mixing.

I have to say, though, the "We Return" thing is a bit creepy. Is that a feature that can be turned off?

Negative pilot. The members of Unit Commune are not automatons that can be used for such duties, even though we are capable of performing them.

At this time the entire cluster is under constant assault pilot Jaiga.
The defensive systems refer to these assaults.

Further information classified.

We Return.

You were referring to the Sansha, right?

Confirmed pilot.

We would note that, should nation propaganda be even partially based in truth, in a war of attrition, nation forces can afford the losses that it takes the empires many years to recover from.

Ship crews, at this time, are not an infinite resource within the empires.

You yourself have claimed in the past that the deaths of nation ship crews are meaningless.

This is a situation that must be changed.

We Return.

We request a full report be sent to us regarding this event pilot.
Request inclusion of as much data as possible regarding the encounter.

Data should include system names, timeframe, the class of any vessels you remember seeing and any other data you feel is relevant.

On a lighter note,

the YC calendar is soon to begin another cycle, we have noted that at this time it is customary to vocalise hopes that known aquaintances and friends have an enjoyable and productive year. We therefore express such sentiments.

We Return.

Everyone feeling festive? I know I am!

Notification:

There will be no further communication with damaged drone hive designated Rogue Drone Systems until such a time as the entity in question uses the correct term of address.

Actually, I think 41 might be onto something, I mean generally speaking it has always made good reasonable decisions and understands humanities needs far better than you have. Therefore I think it knows something that I don't about you..... in any case I take mine with soy cream and sugar, and please grind the beans as short of a time as possible before brewing, I do enjoy it fresh.

[Status update]

Unit Commune is returning to active service within new eden.

[Update complete]

This is a repetition of an earlier request.
We hope that a more active response is forthcomming in the future.

Request reiterated below :

With the apparent cessation of large scale NATION subclass Revenant supercarrier led incursions, Unit Commune is now able to spend additional resources pursuing divergent avenues of research.

To this end we are amassing drone components from defeated drones, both sleeper and 'rogue' in origin.
We are willing to accept donations of such items, should any capsuleer wish to donate them.

Component groupings currently under investigation

Maniplulation devices
Core computational systems
Outer hull fragments.

Additional groupings may be required for further study, however at this time we primarily require the above component types.

We Return.

Status Update:

Sleeper forces located in vicinity of Binary Haven.
Haven defence forces successfully intercepted and destroyed Sleeper forces.

Examination of wreckage underway.
