Benitez Feedback

[Jose Benitez]

I personally don't agree with duels at all.

I think they are somewhat ooRP and it is why I don't do it. Having said that I don't interfere with other people that I know are having duels as it is their decision and if that's what they want to do then fine with me.

I especially do not approve of duels in Gamma at all - or in any factions home system. However this is my own personal opinion and since it is not gainst the rules it is what it is.

I assume that the main thrust of your feedback here is that your were ganked by 7 fighters and a couple of cap ships, and that the person you were dueling clearly decided he no longer wished to duel?

I suspect that the cap ships were not Benitez ones and in practical terms there is not an awful lot we can do about indie cap ships (and god knows we have tried). I also suspect that not all of the snubs were Benitez either?

I do not approve of ganking, although I do believe that Corsairs should be strong in defence of Gamma.

With regard to the person with whom you were dueling and your comment about him accepting regens etc I guess he must have either asked for them (perhaps via group chat) or was offered them (and subsequently pressed the "accept" button on the trade screen). Either way, I assume that at the point he pressed the accept button he decided he no longer wished to duel?

Personally, I dislike the entire way that many players feel it's acceptable to pass around regens when things get a bit tough, and I don't do it. I also discourage other people from doing it.

I will start a discussion within the Benitez to determine what we feel about the issue of passing regens and dueling, and I will inform you of our conclusions such that you can be confident of receiving a consistent response in the future.
