' Wrote:Agreed, but what if trader is showing no will to cooperate, and just keeps goin into cruise, leaving you no time to write anyhting?
Just a note, the five-second delay in between each disrupted cruise should be plenty for you to type your price out. For me, if I know the trader has no intention of stopping, and isn't saying anything back, Johnny'll probably go "Be yer life o' yer money!", CD him again, then "Me price be <amount> credits! Arr!" then continue to waste him until he stops, sends a trade request, or dies.
If you're going to pirate, let the guy know that you're serious before he even gets a chance to respond. Bring his shield down, then let him know that you want some cash or cargo.

Like trading, for instance. Give the pirates more targets to practice on so they get better. Oh, and I'm sick of Lunchboxes. Hello Titan? Best pirating fighter in the game?

Compleatly agree.
Just so happens I know you.You didn't say a word and just jumped to NB , then I said stop again and again and even said *last chance*.Before I took you down.If this is you opinion , I don't think I have a problem to loose 2m from some trader , rather to have the plesure to send you smoking.
Quote:In RP a character would rather pay 2mil out of his 50 than running 750k into the unknown. with pirate on his heels.
In RP, trader wouldn't know if the pirates want to blast him, take his cargo, take his ship, or take 2-10 million credits.
So, it's safer to run. In RP they don't know about server rules and pirates being unable to kill them without asking for tax.

Not sure what your getting at, bud. From what I recall the story, you were over 13k away when you said "Stop"
..Not ''Stop, Geisha''.....Not ''Hey do you have some spare change for the starving children on Microsoft-5''.....just ''Stop.''
And Stop who???...From over 13K away, you can be talking to about anyone.
So, jump I go. Into NB and a pack of wilds.
If your the pirate player I am thinking of....You did manage to catch up to me in a very questionible amount of time, take out the jump gate right from under me and I had to Thrust most of the way back to the Ring.
Your a real champ. Now you come on this thread and threaten to "" I don't think I have a problem to loose 2m from some trader , rather to have the plesure to send you smoking."" .....HHHHmmmm....you better re-read the rules on engagement and pirating. If your intention is to kill me on sight, you better get a terrorist ID first. Or think about this: I pay well................very well........To the Bounty Hunters......To the Assassins.....To the Lawfuls.
Beyound that, I didn't add too much more to this thread...I already have posted 20 or more messages on my dealings with pirates.
From what I read you have a realy bad memory.I was 2k from you when you thrusted to hole.And after that you didn't stop again and again.You gonna pay the BH to kill me...:lol: FINE. You know if you put a hefty price on my head and there are alot of 'em.I'll just be a sport and sit in one place till they kill me. I have absolutly NOTHINK valuable on my pirat chars to loose.So you pay the BH and I run of somewhere else to play.Who looses in this situation , huh ? ;)

My memory is just fine, as well as My Fraps. Let's see.........Yep. I am not require to stop. You, on the other hand, are required to state a price before killing traders. Review the rules.

That's up to you. If you want to sit in one spot and get killed by BH's, then all means...go ahead. I am sure the BH's won't mind an easy kill or an easy paycheck. Either way, that's 4 hours your out of business.
Oh....and that's IF the BH's want payment. Some of them of them hunt for free or favors. *smiles*
And as for 'Nothing of worth on your ship'......hhhmmmm....well, if you keep on your course of your current thinking, I am sure it won't be too long before you get reported, fined,ship stripped,etc,etc.
Now, if your done with your personal attacks on me and you don't have anything else postive to add to the thread....let's move on.

6.19 Pirates and terrorists have a right to deal as much damage as they see fit before or after demanding money from a trader ship, but killing trader ship before demanding money is not allowed. Attacking traders or demanding cargo is not allowed for cruisers and battleships, unless cruisers and battleship belong to Terrorist ID or Phantom ID owner.
Oh, the way some pirates bypass the rule is they state: ''2mil or die.'' With that simple , No RP , 9 letter statement, the pirates now can just go on the PvP-killing mode.
OK i have a question. What if LSF tells you stop cut engine's. You do nothing,and continue to a base since you have contraband,and make it. 5 min later you exit base,and boom get blown to hell no warning. Is this legal? same as pirate stop or die in my oppinion.
