I very rarely appear in OF Feedback Threads, but I feel I must on this occasion.
I know the Server Rules have been dumbed down a lot and maybe the Rules on Piracy have been removed so that more 'blues' can be collected, but hopefully they haven't. If it has, then I can see the Server Population declining even further.
Asking a 5ker to drop all of his cargo and telling him to leave then system, when in a GB (can't hold all the ore of a 5ker) wasn't originally allowed. The GB said that 23 belonged to IMG and when the 5ker tries to RP, saying that OCs and BMM say the same thing, it was destroyed.
Not great RP from a long standing OF.
And once it had killed the Transport, it headed straight to the Mining Field where a LF Mining Ship was sat with Cannister and 25 units of ore in its hold. It wasn't shooting any ore, nor was there any ore in space.
Quote:[13.02.2024 14:24:12] IMG|: GMS ship you will halt your mining operation and leave the system now.
[13.02.2024 14:24:42] GMS|: I am sat here admiring the view
[13.02.2024 14:24:44] IMG|: You have ore in your cargo.
[13.02.2024 14:25:17] IMG|: Stop moving right now!
It was asked to leave and when it tried to leave, it was continually CD'ed. Then came another demand, more CDs and a chase ensued.
Once it was worked out that the GB wasn't going to catch the LF, it changed to something more conducive to catching and killing a LF.
Is this the way the revitalised IMG| are going to act in the future?
I have no problem, nor do the other Members of GMS|, with piracy and some RP along the way, but looking for 'blues' is not conducive to:
Quote:1.0 - Don't be a dick. It's a game, try to keep it fun for everyone playing it. Behavior that falls within the technical letter of the rules but not the spirit won't be tolerated.
I know that that Rule is open to interpretation and is possibly being used as a 'cover all' option, but I can say that neither of my Faction Members 'enjoyed' the encounter.
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
