Newcomer / Intro Conflict zone picking a side

Just recently set up shop in a system that has conflict zones, flew into one and looked through my panels for something to do with picking a side and couldn't see anything so i assumed if i just started shooting at one side i'd be picking a side and getting paid, killed a few ships and left, went to a station and couldn't find any bounties or bonds to cash in after killing those ships.

What am i doing wrong?

ah watched a youtube video of someone entering one, its in the right panel, the functions first in the list says faction and I believe you pick it there, gunna go try it out now.
 
I guess i'm not understanding. I look at the right panel and i see the factions... I can't "choose" one though.

you can scroll up and down the list under functions then you just press spacebar on the faction line and a window will come up to pick a side.

I'm feeling a bit meh about the cash I think i make more bounty hunting at nav points to be honest.
 
I made 45k since your response where it was, and my post. That's pretty good to me, 35 minutes or so and it's a lot safer. Sometimes I had to book it at nav points, ... i'm still in a side winder :)
 
Do you gain and lose rep in combat zones? I know it used to not matter which side you chose but that was before the rep system was implemented fully.
 
can't tell, doesn't seem to matter with the dozens of ships i've killed thus far. No impact on rep as far as the arrow going up or down. Kind of lame.
 
Ok thanks for that. I think it's good though, because you can use them to practice dogfighting without the consequence of a bounty on your head or being ostracised from the system.
