This rule works specifically for the subjects that are relevant to piracy. If you get issued a reasonable demand and you choose not to give in to that demand then it s fair game, as much as it can be evidently. I not know not wish if ever a single transport/ frigate would be jumped by 10-15 people at once.
If the demand is not reasonable then this rule is not in effect, and we are talking about a 1.0 violation since that most of the time indicates intent to just kill and not a wish to participate in fair game
Piracy is a mechanic in itself and it should not be used a cheap way to get a blue. So if I pirate you, I show decency:
“Pirates group of 4 : Yo mr frigate give us 75k as a safe passage tax”
in this scenario you have a few ways of deal with it :
A. “Mr pirate this is excessive and we don’t hold that kind of money on board”
B. “ We are empty sir, could we do 35k”
C. “ Maybe I could help you guys out for a change and haul some material to your base your i can pay 10k and in the future You can hire us to get more cargo shipped from your victims”
In here it should represent that your death comes from lack of cooperation rather then anything else
In general there are ways to deal with piracy and we should not just rile up behind this is bad or good, and we have to look at the general aspect of things.
