' Wrote:there's a lot of factions.. i thought a pirate ID would just let you kill police and traders without penalty..
but with the many rp considerations (id prefer it if the rules wiere simpler),
what faction would you suggest is best for pure piracy?
for example, Lane Hackers seem to really hate just the police elements -- so maybe thy are not meant to go chasing traders, killing and looting.
Quit trying to tie the Pirate ID to some faction. Its a generic for a reason ... read the ID infocard ... it says specifically that the person holding this ID has chosen NOT to affiliate with any faction. That should be enough for people to understand.
You wanna tie the Pirate ID to a faction ... you'd better be considering which faction the Trader ID should be tied to. Should the Trader ID be associated with Republican Shippers? How about Border World Exports? Don't think so because there's ALREADY an ID for those factions. Same goes for Rogues and Hackers. They've got an ID that says what they are. The Pirate ID means he's an indie pirate with no faction affiliation. The truest of Pirates is unaffiliated.
