I know there is some bad feelings about blanket bounties.

[Hielor]

I will say however that Samura ships are on a few bounties as of now and somehow we have managed to get through it without too many sanction reports for daring to attack us.

The difference being that Samura ships are on bounties that aren't blanket bounties on *everyone.*

Actually your wrong. I can attack anything i want without saying a word first,I just cannot kill it without a demand/RP. Many pirates do this all the time. Knock off trader's shields,and some armour then yell "2 mil or dai, or we finish you off" Perfectly legal.

You're mixing up 5.2 and 6.6.

You need to have some form of RP before you attack them, that's 5.2. This can be something as simple as "Hold it there for a moment, trader."

However, you need to make a demand of a transport before you can destroy it, that's 6.6. Once you've fulfilled 5.2, you can shoot all you want, but you can't actually destroy them until you've made a demand and given them time to respond.

There used to be a "rules explanation series" sticky, but it appears to be gone. Oh, there it is: http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=60036
