Intergalactic Summit

Capsuleers,

Many of you may already have heard of the New Order of High Security Space. Some of you have not. In any case, the Order has yet to be publicly announced in the Intergalactic Summit, so, as an Agent of the Order, I am taking it upon myself to introduce it. Feel free to ask questions; my fellow Agents and I shall do our best to answer them.

What is the New Order?

---

To put it simply, the New Order is a group of capsuleers who believe in the principles put forth in the New Halaima Code of Conduct, as set down by the Lord and Saviour of Highsec, James 315. The Code, and the Order, transcends corporations, alliances, coalitions and empires. All of lawful New Eden (defined as those systems where Concord operates) falls under our rule.

James 315 and the Agents of the New Order believe that capsuleers everywhere should not focus only on personal profit, but also on doing their best to improve the community of New Eden and to raise the standard of living of your average capsuleer - to become 'good people', if you like. We take the view that many capsuleers could improve themselves simply by being held to a higher standard of conduct. The New Halaima Code of Conduct provides that standard - and the New Order enforces it.

The New Order is, of course, a democratic organisation. The Code was written and agreed to by the entire community of New Highsec. Of course, it would be impractical for tens of thousands of capsuleers to collaborate on one document, so James himself, in his position as elected Savior and Representative of Highsec, acted as a proxy when drafting the Code.

How does the New Order affect you?

---

If you are already a good and upstanding member of the capsuleer elite, then the New Order will hardly affect you at all - other than in enforcing similar standards for everyone else, which should cause a noticeable improvement in your life as a capsuleer.

If you do not already, then the New Order expects you to follow the values outlined in the [url=http://www.minerbumping.com/p/the-code.htmlNew Halaima Code of Conduct[/url]. In brief, this involves respect for all fellow capsuleers, not engaging in activities to excessiveness - we want well-rounded people in our systems - and keeping your public communication clean and decent. You are required to accept all the lifestyles that a capsuleer might potentially follow, from suicide warfare to joining a militia to upholding the Code itself.

If you are one of the many capsuleers who reside exclusively in low- or null-security space, then the Code is not enforced, as such. However, the New Order still recommends following the Code, as you will find yourself becoming a better person overall and an asset to your community.

How can you aid the New Order?

---

Become an Agent.

The most direct way that you can aid the New Order of Highsec is to become an Agent and uphold the Code yourself. This involves everything from forcefully moving the ships of Code-violators to debating the intricacies of the Code with people who are unsure, to performing Concord's duties in destroying criminals themselves. As an Agent, who can expect to travel New Eden, visit all four empires and see multitudes of different types of capsuleers. Ships and ammunition are often subsidised by the New Order, and you can expect to make a profit from the fees taken from violators of the Code.

Become a Shareholder.

For those of you who have more ISK than time, you too can support the New Order by purchasing shares. Shares cost no more than one million ISK each, and all proceeds go to the Savior of Highsec to support his rule. Shareholders are publicly recognised as contributors to the cause, and are also permitted to take part in Shareholder Votes (one share is equivalent to one vote), which display the truly democratic nature of the Order in voting on tricky interpretations of the Code as well as future New Order policies.

Thank you. Please feel free to ask any questions that you feel I have not sufficiently answered.

Very nice write-up but I along with Silas, as well as many more I'm sure, am aware of the very decadent nature of your organisation.

But, as long as it keeps you away from State creches...

I bet they'll put bounties on people.

They are not 'scared,' I can confirm that much.

Be weary though, for even a thousand idiots with guns can occasionally point them in the same direction to devastating effect.

It would seem that the answer is a mixture of A and B.

As I said, the Order transcends corporations and alliances. The actions of my organisation are in no way linked to the actions of the New Order.


I'm very sorry, but I'm not quite sure what you're referring to.


The Code can be enforced in a number of ways. Non-Code-compliant miners, for example, can be forced out of mining range by repeatedly hitting their ships with your own. More serious criminals can be punished by blowing up their ships.

And yes, we are willing to face Concord's punishments in the name of enforcing the Code.


We've chosen Highsec because that's where the highset concentration of capsuleers is. Quite simply, that's where we can make the biggest difference.


With that attitude, the New Order would fail too.

Suicide ganking and bumping I think the baseliner herd call it.

How long do you think you can keep such a programme of mundane aggression and general asshattery going? a week? a month?
Your fellow corporation members and their allies will grow tired before much of a dent is made, we've seen this all before.

This New Order is irrelevant.

But you are.

"We're going to break CONCORD laws to uphold our own, because we want to help you by spitting in the face of your freedom. Also, we will act without checks or balances."

Give me a break. And I tohught I was a foolish idealist.

What a florid bit of sickly sweet prose for such a putrid pile of crap.

You people are common griefers who choose to bully unarmed and unorganized miners who mean you no harm and who refuse to bow to your extortion demands. Know that bounties work both ways and that sooner or later your victims will bond together, rise up and terminate your reign of terror.
