Killing trader/smuggler with capital ship?

[Laowai]

oooooooooohhhhhhhhhh i can wade in on this one, this is a pet peeve of mine.


I had this out in another thread ages ago: its basically like this:

Lawful in a cap ship - you CAN engage/destroy a trader/smuggler breaking the rules in your systems...

Unlawfuls in a cap ship - you CAN'T engage/destroy a trader/smuggler breaking the rules in your systems...

This was confirmed to me in the thread by hoodlum himself. When i pointed out that this was a double standard and unfair on unlawfuls he stated that the rules didn't have to be fair for unlawfuls (or something to that effect) and that thats just the way it was.

This law applies to POLICING - while i personally think pirates SHOULD be able to tax in a cap ship, i can see a reason why its not allowed.... I do however strongly disagree with this rule as it pertains to pirate factions enforcing their own rules. It is a complete double standard to say lawfuls can and unlawfuls can't.


To get this rule changed i believe Igiss has to give it the tick... anyone sent messages away yet?

Until then unlawful ladies and gentlemen... you cannot touch a trader while you are in a cap ship unless he has dropped your shields down below 50%....


Though gunboats can......

Gunboats everyone?
