Privately owned space stations no better than publicly availabes within Empire space

Two days ago I docked to the Supernova Federation space station. I had plans to relax and scheming how to raise my status in Providence. I paid astronomical docking bill, and expected a little comfort, since I had calculated taxes my member brought me all day.

After I walked only decent hall way from my ship to my quarters, I almost saw flaming pits of the burning Hell at the edges of my vision. Room was dirty. There could not be find any luxury im used to, and that damned door was like nailed. I could not get it open, nor get the message out of the station personell to come and open it for me. Im almost sure I heard something outside the door, like scratching. No matter how hard I tried, that door just stayed shut and im sure no one have cleaning that room after I, Lord Vaari left it. I ordered my members to visit several space stations around the Providence, and even beyond, but message was always the same. Astronomical docking fees, small dirty room and door that wont open.

I'm very sorry to hear of your misfortune! My room in Lonetrek is very clean, tastefully adorned and provided free of charge by my employer. I hope that you can find more suitable arrangements soon.

Sealed doors with scratching behind them? uncleaned rooms? What else was there? were there people in the station?

I have no idea. Yes, there were traffic outside the station, but inside it was like it have been deserted for hundred years. No people anywhere. I tried to reach station personel, but there were nothing in intercom radio. Not even static.

The scratching you heard was some internet space fleas u left behind when enter into the station.
If it's luxury you looking for then SNF stations are not for you, we can give you shelter, food and a bed to sleep.
Anyway make a big smile on your face wanna be high-priest, because with the docking fee you paid you have contributed a little bit for the amarrian cause.

I have certainly learned that. You are not alone in this barbaric style however, since I have yet to find luxyruous space station. If someone has money to build space station, is it too hard to build few quarters, where extremely noble visitors, like myself can stay? I really hoped that doors also would work if I, Lord Vaari have to pay for docking. Altough prestige I bring to the station by visiting it, its owner should pay for me.

Couldn't figure out the door, eh? What a shame, good stuff out here.

It is good to know, however, that the station concourses are currently a Vaari-free environment.

I think the Proclaimer of Providence has been dipping into his own stocks again...

Sometimes the doors are used to keep certain things out, sometimes they are used to keep certain things inside. For the good of all involved of course.

That is very true, my good and dear friend. Since Imperial Pharmacy and CVA, and especially CVA's religious arm are very close due our sacred peace treaty, I dont even give a thought that you try to implicate those damn jamming doors are trying to hold me out of the rest of the station.
