I am, as I have said before, constitutionally incapable of playing unlawful. Tried once, I suck. That being said:
Unlawfuls have every right to indulge in their chosen form of antisocial behavior. (I'm talking about InRP here.)
Unlawfuls have every right, as does *everyone* on this server, to get good RP out of their encounters. (I admit, I sometimes I've been pirated one too may times and well, my RP is barely passable, but everyone has the right to expect me to *try*.)
But unlawfuls do *not* have the right to whinge about their victims not paying. Traders, miners, passers-by, whoever, have the right to A) pay, B) run or C) fight, so long as there is adequate RP.
I run battle transports for a reason. It gives me some time to decide if the RP is good enough to warrant my time or is this another '2milordie' moron, who is gonna get a curt 'get lost' from me. And, yeah, in the end I almost always decide to run or fight. It appears that I am equally incapable of playing a sheep.
