You're going on and about the [LN] ganking when I've yet to see any evidence of it, or any names. All you're doing is sitting here telling me Joe preferred snub fights, and so do I. You do realize we don't actually have any control over our indies though, right? If we tell them to stay out it doesn't mean they'll listen, and there isn't any rule we can use to enforce that.
If you see an [LN] member telling a cap to engage in a furball or taking bots from one however, that is a problem.
I really don't like people who play the cynic card after one bad experience. It is far easier and more productive to just go to the people who need to be talked to ([LN] HC), and say "Yo, this happened today, can you talk to the guy about it? Thanks."
You also have to understand that a lot of the [LN]'s new recruits aren't so skilled in the whole shooting thing, and while I'll be the first to tell you that the [LN] is a military faction and that I believe our members should be at least passable at it, that kind of thing takes time to teach, and basically what the flares do is roll around Liberty and keep them system dead, all day. See it from a newbie's perspective: It might just be a tiny bit demoralizing.
I'm not whining, or asking you to fly less, I'm just asking you to have a bit of understanding of the situation. If one of 'em gets out of line and throws a cap at you, tell me. So far I've yet to see that and until we, and we'll just continue seeing your behavior as an "I have to win" mentality, rather than a group of people who enjoy a fair brawl, win or lose.
