Its about "Generic pirate vs faction pirate" as the name says, stay tuned. I now see that I haven't made myself too clear so ill try to explain.

First and obvious reason for trying to go into detail is to remove speculations from this thread. I don't want people to misunderstand my question in terms of straying from the initial problem.

I play a Generic pirate with no-tag too. You wouldn't believe how often people PM me with sanction threats.
I had lots of situations similar to what "hulk" expirienced. The Junker was silent the whole time and once he chose to leave he PMd "Hulk" something like "//screenshots taken, sanction follows."
"Hulk" was sure he wasn't ooRP but it made me wonder of my own actions since i was sitting in the same boat many times. No-one likes to be considered ooRP, we would all like to set up a good example right?.
As for generic pirates versus faction pirates my question was if generic pirate indies can start conflicts with pirate factions if they so wish (lets pretend that they are suicidal). As hulk though the junker to be mocking him and it had pissed him off. But even if it weren't like this. And in general, a pirate chose to tax a junker (factionised pirate/smuggler) in a fighter (which makes little to no sense to tax a fighter but has happened lots of times)
' Wrote:Are you asking a question? Asking for help? Asking for information?
you guys were kind enough to debate on my initial question but i still have a question.
Can a generic pirate, if he's suicidal, start killing blood dragons in chugoku (just an example) to clear the trade rute and tax any powertrader coming by?
This question should fill the magical circle of life of this thread.

I-told-you-so forum? Well i wont lie here, i intend to keep this thread for future reference. For people constantly calling me and my partner "Hulk" ooRP just because they don't like us taxing where we damn please.
Informing new players is good right? I don't see why they should avoid this thread.
