ok, you guys know how bizarre example i sometimes present, but I'm 100% sure that someone will be able to post their opinion too.
example:
Generic pirate ID / no tag / Hacker bomber = let's call him Hulk
Junker ID / junker tag / advanced train = call him Dave
-Dave enters Chugoku
-Indie blood dragons are asking him "what business do you have here?" and all sorts of provocative questions.
-Dave RPs bout some business, so the indies don't know what to do with him, they only know that NovaPG would surely kick him out. But they listen to his RP all confused, nothing happens.
-Hulk had an agreement with the local indies that allowed him to harass power-traders with taxes in Chugoku on the opposite JH.
-Hulk comes to the JH where the Junker had been stopped, and tells him: "beat it Dave, you're not welcome here"
-the junker sees Hulk as an generic indie pirate, not directly affiliated with Blood Dragons. NovaPG would kick him too.
-the junker and blood dragon indies just stand there. Hulk repeats his question but the Junker remains silent.
-Hulk starts shooting and brings down Dave's Hull to minimum without killing him. Dave still remains silent.
-Hulk *sighs*, stop shooting and tells Dave that he will spare his life for 1 million credits.
-Dave repairs his hull with nanobots and batteries. The dragon indies observe this weir situation without a word. Dave still remains at the same point he was stopped 3 min ago and remains silent.
-Hulk *sighs* again and announces: "arrogant fool" Starts shooting (to kill) and Dave responds with fleeing from Chugoku. Hulk doesn't follow since he got what he and the indies wanted.
mind this rules before posting an opinion.
Quote:6.9 Generic IDs (Military ID, Freelancer ID, Pirate ID, Trader ID, Smuggler ID) indicate characters that did not join an NPC faction, but still maintain appropriate reputation with those factions, and appropriate faction tag, if any tag is available.
Quote:6.17 Owners of Pirate IDs have a right to attack:
- Military/Police
- Bounty Hunters
- Trader ships that do not pay for passage
- Unfriendly pirates
Quote:6.19 Pirates and terrorists have a right to deal as much damage as they see fit before or after demanding money from a trader ship, but killing trader ship before demanding money or cargo is not allowed. Attacking traders or demanding cargo is not allowed for cruisers and battleships, unless cruisers and battleship belong to Terrorist ID or Phantom ID owner.
Now, take all into consideration, all aspects and judge thus:
was Hulk ooRP for attacking/taxing the Junker, or not?
all thou i would love to see flame-fests avoided i know it cannot be undone. I may have opened another Pandora's box unless the community is one-sided about this matter (not that im interested in copy/paste opinions)
