So last night I was flying my pirate character, "bloodsail". He's got a rogue gunboat, six solaris gunboat turrets, a rogue tag, and generic pirate ID.

As I undocked from buffalo, I see a red target on scanners. He had a police tag, and once I closed the distance I saw he was flying an advanced train.

The mistake I made here was that I didnt scan to see what ID he had, and I should have. I hit him with a couple train CD's and asked twice in system chat what his reason for being in the badlands, so close to buffalo base (he was about 8k from the base) was. He did not respond, and just kept trying to engage his cruise.

It was quite clear that he was hostile to my factions. He was red IFF'd, and all the rogue and outcast npcs in the area were gunning at him. My guess is that he was coming from the texas -> new york jump hole as a shortcut on his trade route. After no response from him, I killed him, we'll say to keep buffalo's location secure, but primarily because he was a hostile target in what is considered rogue space.

Normally I dont kill a trader without asking for cargo or money first, but since I wasnt actively pirating at the time (this happened close to home, not out on some distant trade lane) I considered my actions more rogue-ish, in defense of their space from an unknown intruder.

After killing him, I tractored in some of the loot. I didnt get much, but he was carrying a mix of niobium and some random stuff. Nothing illegal and nothing that would be considered contraband... so why was he flying through very much hostile space when he could have been taking the gate and trade lanes?

Just want some confirmation that I was in the right here and wasnt breaking any rules without cause. I never got any chat out of him, he didnt respond before death and after he died it said "player left", never saw him come back. poor bugger, hope i didnt scare him off...
