Scout Report: New Guild

11SEP15

Friendly Neighborhood Trade Guild(FNTG) is a new guild whose chartered activities are: trading between stations, selling products to other players, mining, hive combat, Deneb, queen hunting, Capture the Cargo(CtC), and manufacturing. They currently enjoy guild wide warranty for safe passage with Family Galactic Travel(FAMY) and conquerable station access by their current owners Skygge Vakter(SKV). This guild is now believed to be founded by a seasoned third party not affiliated with the SKV-FAMY-ITAN axis and is recommended to novice pilots seeking to explore the non-combat aspects of the VO universe.

As recently has yesterday a FNTG pilot was attacked by an SKV pilot, calling into question the integrity of SKV's command & control structure. It remains to be seen how this ultra-nationalist guild rationalizes granting station access to a guild inclusive of Sercos. As always, FAMY is honoring their temporary Non-Aggression Pact and is expected to, so long as payment is rendered.

Estrian Prosis of the Coalition of Itan(ITAN) has indicated he will allow passage through Sedina B8 only to non-Serco members provided their nation stations reflect a subjective Itani leaning. Even then it is recommended that FNTG pilots maintain an appropriately reverent tone on global net 100, as even the smallest verbal slight have been known to provoke hostilities.

FNTG's founder/commander flies under the call sign "Bubba Lovesponge." The two Lieutenants, "Graeco" and "Larxis" can act as recruiters and should be contacted for inquiries. They are not known to have any technological trading capabilities or advanced mining surveys. They are regarded as neutral and an excellent starter guild for novice pilots.  More detailed information can be found under their thread: Friendly Neighborhood Trading Guild.

You know what I find stupid,if I recall correctly I would like pull my own faith into the game for a moment EP why in the hell would insult my faith in God damn video game!
EP: "Life would be easier without religion" I really don't give a living fuck if that was an opinion also I politely asked for a change of subject that day here's what I said accordingly after that! "Can we please change the subject,you're already offending me" You said: "deal with it". An apology directly on this thread will lessen my anger!!!

Quite frankly EP have you ever thought about others feelings have you ever thought that you take VO to seriously because I wouldn't be surprised if you put out death threats every where like your crazed murder,do you have bodies hidden in your closet or basement of VO players? You remind of We tie! are you one of his alts! I wouldn't be surprised if you were.

Oh and here's an astonishing news flash,you've really outdone your self saying TGFT is a dead guild did you forget to take your meds?!??!?! its quite funny how homicidal and screwed up the wires in your head are.   Great.....your first person that I have ever seriously lashed out this intense before,well I feel selfish and well I blame you for me having to post this
One More Thing:Be a decent human being and apologise for insulting my faith!!!!           ~~~Cron-Wo Bashios~~~

Captain Fluffy, TGFT

"Yes, I want to trade, manufacture, sell to other [pilots] but right now...I am perfectly happy to pad my credit balance with asinine escort missions while looking for people to shoot."

TGFT After Action Report:

TGFT pilot 'Grizzly SpaceBear' reported contact with FAMY pilot in Odia System. TGFT pilots 'Galanoth' and 'Ason' arrived and reinforced. FAMY pilot did not break contact and faired poorly until second FAMY pilot and FAMY CO arrived in sector. Using explosive ordinance TGFT pilots pressured enemy to relocate to system wormhole. Despite a protracted engagement at a neutral sector, FAMY faired no better and their CO broke contact. Estimated KIA to FAMY: 15 with 5-6 TGFT KIA. FAMY pilot was so impressed with valor of 'Grizzly SpaceBear' he promised 48 hours safe passage in recognition of martial prowess.

TGFT Pilot 'Galanoth' engaged Big Red One[ONE] pilot in honor duel but was ambushed by second ONE pilot. Despite this honor violation, TGFT pilot emerged victorious. Of note is the energy weapons used by TGFT pilot were neutron blasters mkiis, whereas ONE weapons were law enforcement neutron blasters.
-------------------------------------------
Some will read these words and paint the actions of our pilots as aggressive and predatory. Nothing could be further from the truth.

FAMY has declared de facto war on TGFT pilots by refusing to accept warranty payments. Where as TGFT pilots have always been free to engage, flee, or pay known hostiles as decided by the individual. It as if a personal vendetta overrides the larger profit motive.

ONE has been approached to declare a truce so as to focus on our common enemy, but to no effect. It seems as if ONE is content to divide their limited forces amongst two fronts and perform poorly, rather the focus their efforts against their aged old enemy.

So be it. Let it be known that The Guild of Free Traders will engage in offensive military actions against those deemed potentially hostile. We are traders first and foremost, but not afraid to defend the safe passage of all trade lanes.

Scout Report: Trade Experience

Foreword:
The Liberty ship was a class of cargo ship built in mid 20th century earth during the second Great War. The design was popular for its simple, low-cost construction. Mass produced on an unprecedented scale, the now iconic Liberty ship was eventually constructed at the rate of one per day.

Captains Log

The Guild of Free Traders welcomes all new pilots to the VO universe, whether they be Serco, Itani, or citizens of the Union of Independent Territories. We are one of VO's oldest guild and are dedicated to freedom of trade lanes for all those seeking to deliver goods to market.

With that in mind, I have been stocking two commodities at Latos Mining in Latos N2: bearing grease and Itani education disk level O. The purpose being is that these two items reward pilots with highest experience for a commodity when sold at Remley Orbital in Latos N15. The profit margin is minimal, even negative, but for pilots looking to achieve the trade license for a Moth XC, this is the most reliable path.

I will attempt to keep stock levels sufficient, but given current hostilities with SKV, ITAN, and FAMY, shortages are likely. With that in mind, I am offering the following incentive to veteran pilots: for every Moth XC load of either commodity delivered I will pay 200,000 credits; for every Trident load I will pay one million credits.

Payments will be handled by a scout stationed at Latos N2, but please msg me (H.Hornblower) first for availability and verification of delivery. This offer is not valid to pilots and guilds known as hostile to TGFT.
