Pirates - unreasonable price - Vogel - 06-04-2010
Granted I'm awesome, and granted my freighter is the best smuggling vessel in Sirius.
But when three pirates stop me and demand I pay one million each...

Well, I wouldn`t mind the Pirates up on this Server.It`s kinda Charming how Most of them ask you for Tax, almost Polite.On the Server I usually Play on, you`ll get Shot to a burning Wreck, than the Pirate asks for Tax.
Sometimes you can`t even Pay fast enough and they`ll just Fire you to Bits.

I do this with my character, Evader, ONLY because he is going mad in his experiments, and LOVES killing, so, in RP, it's justified. He does have the "credits or die" formula. By the way, I think you are talking about me in your first post because 500k is one of setmsg (also my lowest). And Rhinos are my second favorite target (Dromedaries are my first, they explode VERY easily and nicely, espiacially with a SNAC breaking their shields)

Screenshots are your friend. People of all stripes like to stand up for the little guy. Remember that next time.
' Wrote:coming from EVE, I can say the pirates here are very easy and nice. You guys honestly dont know how good you have it. In this game when a pirate kills you, you don't even lose ur ship.:nyam:
Yes, but the general motif between here and EVE is enormously different. Here we are all expected to coexist. In EVE, utterly destroying someone is encouraged. This is not EVE -- I've played EVE, I've done well at it. But it's more of a job than a leisure activity.
Also EVE rewards people who play over 100 hours a week. To hell with that noise.

I realy don't know - do We meet in this situation - but I think that is cruel to demand 500k for newbie or Rhino pilot - becouse usualy they don't have that amount of cash.
Or from helium miners - usualy helium miners are a players with rank 5 - 20, so it's not fair.

Leave the little ones alone. You have a bomber so go and target something bigger. I don't care how much of a RP justification you have, you will not target new people just for the sake of an easy target. This is just poor form.

You know what would be an unreasonable price? Imagine this.
~~~
A gunboat, outcast ID, CD's you at a disrupted tradelane. It looks like a lolwut, smells like a lolwut. You think, aw crap!
Suddenly, a message! "100m or I kill you....."
It waits a few seconds. In those few seconds, you think to yourself, Oh, 100m? he has to be joking. But... he looks like a lolwut. This doesn't seem right... what were those dots for?
Another message! ".... that is, 100 mil... in French kisses."
~~~
I think that all other prices just became irrelevant.
