Also wasnt Apathaam exploited by ald?
ALD bonuses are on combat (BH and CZ). I never heard about any bonuses for missions, and I was heavy into PP for some time.
Apathaam is not showing to be influenced by any of the PP factions on the Gal Map this morning. Maybe it was in the past?
It's been quite a while since I PP'd (also for ALD), but I believe JL is correct, the only bonuses are for combat, so in Exioce this could be a factor with ALD supporters using the RESs to farm combat and handing them in too the controlling faction for the bonuses. In Apathaam however there is no real advantage for an ALD supporter to go there that I can see.
It is more likely (IMHO) that an Imperial group (or groups) is opposing us purely because we are independent and should therefore be stopped. No problem with this, if I was an Imperial in the area either playing the BGS or more likely just role-playing my role I'd probably be trying to stop non-Imperial groups expanding, that's just how the game works.
The other possibility is that we are being opposed simply because of who we are, we are not without our enemies and in reality this would be the only real way to have a pop at us.

Is it just the five of us? OoM are getting slaughtered down here and they are laughing at us!
Is this our community?
Tired and dissapointed.
There are a few important things to remember here. Whilst yes 22k people have joined the combined groups, only less than 5k have signed up to this forum, of that <5k only a percentage are regularly active (although more may browse but never log in), of those that are active only a small percentage will have any interest in the faction.
In fact of the total registered users of this forum less than 4% have signed up for the Order, and of that 175 or so people the largest percentage have made less than 10 posts in total, and many have made none, and I know for a fact that many of the signed-up members are off doing other stuff in other places, and will generally only come back for things like wars (although I am sure many would return for a dire emergency).
So in reality, whilst the private group may be huge, the number of regularly active supporters or the Order is actually very small.
And whilst it would be nice to have many hundreds of Commanders driving us to galaxy domination, people are free to do what they want in Mobius, the Order of Mobius and the Mobius private groups are separate things.
