' Wrote:wow what a great example of a guy why is a PVP whore. when I am in my Cruiser's I own and I see fighters and that I tell them they have 30 seconds to leave this system or be engaged and things like that I dont just go up to them and start blasting away I give them at least a chance to run why its way over kill to use a cruiser or above to kill a little fighter a bomber I can see you just attacking why because they are a threat to any capital ship.

No I dont own any Lawful ships why because when I was first starting on this server I got a threatened by LPI and LSF that if I did lose the police ID I was going to be shot on sight.I have a NovaPG a Liberty Rogue and if you have read any of the Bounty Hunter discussion I also have a harvester all of which I own FIghters/bombers why because in a fighter I find it more fun to fight in when I do get in a fight. But before I fight I try and do RP with people most the time when I just fight its because the Lawful Players start a attack on me with no RP and I am just defending myself tonight on my Rogue character I accually saw I LNS guy do some accual roleplay...thank you for that It was nice to see some of that.

But 90% of the Lawfuls I meet are just look at you and shoot even if you are just sitting in space doing nothing. By lawfuls I mean Police, Navy and Bounty Hunters(yes there are a few non good BH's but most are lawful).

sorry but id have to agree with cana theres no rules that you have to annouce your attacking but its better rp if you do. At least say your enguaging or target located or something..

Ive had enough of disco for now. I might be back at the next mod release.

Exactly what I said, that's what all lawfuls are instructed to do, simply say they are engaging, there is no other requirement and any other RP besides that and an occasional insult or something would actually be ooRP. And all lawfuls do that before starting a fight, in fact I often get proof of that, and I've yet to see proof of other people claiming that lawfuls come in guns blazing or whatever. Also, me being a pvp whore, yes, I am a pvp whore, if you are a pirate I will kill you without a chance to even explain why you are there. Why? Because that is in my char's RP story, he's a bloodthirsty and effective high command officer in the Navy, he's done many changes in it and since he's inside the Navy actually became effective in dealing with crime again. Also, all people that know me will call me a pvp whore, and they will also call me a very good RPer, because as I said, in group chat between LN, LSF and LPI we do RP a lot. As for RPing with pirates, I still see no reason except some random people on the forums claiming its "better RP". Why would it be better? Give me one good reason. RP is completely arbitrary and is different from person to person, why is it better because some people say this is better, and some people say it's not. Who's right? Both are right, and both could be wrong, arguing about it is pointless because people have different way of leading factions or roleplaying. I for one will not tell any of the LN to change their behavior in pvp from what they've shown so far. I sometimes get information that they've done something wrong, if I have proof, I will punish them, if I don't nothing will happen. Most of the time I get compliments on how they act. So you see, I tend to distrust people who randomly throw about insults without any shred of evidence. That is why, nothing at all will change.

Besides the fact that Titan's a dirty pvp hoe, and that his character is a buttwipe (we love you Titan:)), where's the OORPness of lawfuls shooting unlawful pilots on sight? That's what I don't get.

@ Captainpoo-this thread is not about OORP problem its about Lack of RP if you accually read instead of skiming and sticking your nose in.

There's a very thin line between OORP and lack of RP.

Then explain to me, where is the 'lack of RP' in a lawful shooting an unlawful without saying anything?

Excuse me Canasius, but, when I see an unlawful, and I get pulled out a Trade Lane, I just say 'Engaging (Hackers, Rogues, etc.)' and then shoot.

I do RP if given time, all the lawfuls I'e seen do it.

As for capwhores, not actually a lot o fthem in Lib caps left, mostly BHGs now.

Oh, and call me a PvP whore like the rest of the people you have, and I may have to not be very nice to you:)

Also, I would actually bring this to your attention:

' Wrote:wow what a great example of a guy why is a PVP whore. when I am in my Cruiser's I own and I see fighters and that I tell them they have 30 seconds to leave this system or be engaged and things like that

Thats called a lack of RP, in other words, this is what you are saying:

*Sees the pirate*

'30 seconds to leave or you will be destroyed'


Not very RPish, is it?


Also, why would Lawfuls allow pirates to escape? One that runs away will come back and trouble you, a dead one.... won't come back :rolleyes:

I tell you what Canasius - whilst it's not in my nature to fuel the fire, you asked for it. If you want a damned good example of, not only ooRP and/or PvP whoring, but also illegal actions, let's look at you bringing a Corsair Cruiser into New York to avenge the destruction of your Greyhound fighter, with the intentions of fulfilling the very threat that you made over the private channel. You even parked it outside Sugerland waiting for the Gunboat to undock.

Guard_00 Wrote:wow you can attack a fighter that is undocking but wont take on a cap ship alone
Duh, like a Gunboat is going to undock when there is a Cruiser, at least one Bomber and also a few fighters sat outside waiting for it. Funnily enough you had no worries about the Rogues that were also there. Since when did Harvesters have any feelings for anything outside of Bornholm?

Likewise, it was your own fault that you undocked whilst there was a blatantly hostile Gunboat waiting for you. Furthermore, if you can't dodge Gunboat turrets in a Greyhound, that's your problem and need to go back to flight training.

I hear the head toaster wasn't too happy with you?

Now that I've possibly started a war of words, I'll just refrain from posting anything else here.

Keep the personal disputes to PMs.

If you have something for everyone to see, write it here. If its a personal squabble, there is a nice little "P/M" button in the bottom of the userbar.

Sorry LSF/LN, but i have not encountered any RP in NY for week's, and i average 6-8 hour's a day on the server.(on vacation from work). LSF/LN leader's. You need to monitor/train your player's.
