PERSONAL LOG: 26/06/816

Im writing flight log for last night, I didnt have the opportunity to finish it yesterday. As soon as I was discharged from medical, I checked to see what had happened to Luis after the Iota incident. He was in the same hospital as me after being returned by an Order patrol. I met with the patrol leader later who had told me they were horrified to see two Corsair fighters enter the most hostile area in Sirius without support. They made haste and jumped through after us, but by the time they arrived Luis had already been dispatched and I had been knocked unconscious. They did a fly-by on the wreckage field from Luis ship and plucked his pod out of the Aliens grasp. From there we was returned to Yaren and from there to Crete. The wing leader's name was Luke Naylor Brother of the Bretonain guard that caught my attention. I guess I owe it to him to leave the Bretonian alone.

Save this good news about Luis the rest of this log shall progressively get worse. It started by me leaving for Sigma 17 in the Auxiliary to map the system when I encountered a Cryer tagged Stinger named NightHawk. I was in a good mood so I passed him by without scanning him for identification, even saying Hola... He about turned and set to follow me. After a short while he asked if we could talk, so I cut my engines, at which point he attacked. Realising my Decurion was no match for his Stinger, I set course for the Theta jump hole and alerted various other member of the familia. The ambush was sprung in Theta, where NightHawk was engaged by Luis, meself and another Benitez that shall remain, ahem, anonymous. After a a while Luis alerted me that he had no NanoTech seeing as he had set off for Theta without time to reequip himself. His Pratorian was critically damaged and was forced to bug out to the nearby Freeport. Satisfied NightHawk also fell back to Sigma 17 and the remaining Benitez also gave chase. By this time we had gained the aid of hermano Chico as well.

Jumping back to 17 we gave pursuit which resulted in a fight which ended in a fight near Cryers Atika Research station. After a short while NightHawks engines began to malfunction throwing his ship into seeming impossible angles. His engine then suffered a critical error and he was forced to manually dock at Ataka, by the sound of things damaging the stations docking bay. ((He lagged out)) Satisfied we proceeded to head back to Theta when a Hunter bomber undocked from Kurile. We engaged and the hostile was destroyed. It was at this point the nightmare began

The OPG seeing our position followed us into Sigma 17 and their warmonger leader, Gentle began to slander Carlos and the Benitez familia. We responded for a while whilst the OPG ship Crucifix sat at the edge of our scanners. Eventually we realised our words would not be heard by fools, so I ordered our forces back to Gamma at double time. On the return to Gamma, Gentle continued to slander us, with OPG forces following slightly too close, close enough to set of proximity alerts in out cock-pits. I ordered all combat ready Benitez form a guard detail around Carlos daughter Alandra. Luis had had rudimentary repairs conducted on his bomber by Zoner engineers at this point, so he returned to help guard Alandra. Jumping back into the Malvada cloud, OPG forces were swarming. Luis was disrupted numerous times ((which according to the rules counts as an attack)) all the whilst Genital continued to slander our forces. I also had a torpedo launched at me by a OPG bomber. We engaged Cruise and headed for Crete, not willing to take part in Gentles blood madness.

Luis funaly managed to escape the OPG hounding him unharmed and cruised up to me in formation. At this point Gentle was follwing extremely close behind me. He then screamed that the Benitez were traitors and cut his engines and opened fire on my ship. My shields were dropped and my hull sent to 50% integrity before I realised I was under attack. The Traitor had fired on a Corsair I had heard the OPG had allied with Outcasts in the past, but I wasn't willing to believe it until then. We dodged the second salvo knowing that with cut engines the insane <strike>pirate</strike> tratior could not manoeuvre and continued to Crete. Outside Crete I pleaded for Alandra to dock and ordered all Benitez vessels to stand down. Luis had particularly taken offence to Gentles firing on me and had himself fired a single warning shot at him. A pict recording was sent to me later from hermano Chico who recorded the entire incident:


Once at Crete we all formed a defensive detail. I told them in no uncertain terms I would never fire upon another Corsair. After another 10 minuets of heated conversation in which the OPG continued to slander us TBH ships began to arrive. At the arrival of senior Yanez, I pleaded that he would bring some sanity to the situation! TBH didnt respond and didnt seem to be taking a side. One TBH pilot claimed to be eating popcorn At this point three hostile contacts appeared on radar. It was three Bounty Hunter gunships, and they had made a grave mistake Glad for a single common enemy I jumped at the chance to get away from Gentle. The gunships were destroyed by a combined force of three Benitez and a battlefleet sized force of TBH and OPG. After the Hunters demise, components started to fail all over the Auxiliary, possibly due to the damage Gentle had done earlier and I was forced to limp back to Crete. I do not know what happened after this but I pray it came to a peaceful solution.

//Now for a oorp comment on the evening festivities Not by the Benitez clan, but by me. Custo Benitez- Jammi- whichever you pick. Im guessing the OPG went to Sigma 17, JUST because they could see we were there so they could attack us! They insulted Carlos as a player and insulted me as a player. On the way back to Crete Gentle even ATTACKED me! I dont know what the hell the OPG are up to, but they need to examine their claims we are traitors a little closer. It would seem the traitors to the Corsair people are a little closer to the OPG camp Gentle, whatever you are trying to do stop.

All we tried to do was establish the Senate which would be a fair method of governing Gamma. It would give equal power to all the clans and the independents! You claim we were power mongering, but HOW can you be power mongering when you are trying to apply equality to a unbalanced situation? The OPG would have the same amount of votes as the Benitez, TBH and Independents for goodness sake! What is wrong with you people!

The only logical conclusion I can come to is you are trying to run the Benitez and its players off the server. I pity you for this. You are killing the game for others. And yeah, as a final note thanks. I spent extra time ingame trying to defend the great name of the Benitez against the smear campaign the OPG were throwing against us, and guess what? It got me banned from all electronic devices by my parents for two weeks I hope youre happy Damn you Gentle. Ingame flights and this flight log will be suspended for two weeks. After the two weeks Ill evaluate if I want to remain playing on the server.//
