Politics and Role Play

[Culebra]

I wholeheartedly agree, The Junkers are businessmen, and scientists etc.
Actually, we are trying to protect our profits. Most criminal organisations and smuggling rings work based on bribery, violence and threats.
The OUtcasts have attempted diplomatic contact, you appear to have missed this.

Only after the ships were sent out. But I have seen it. The SOB thread was what I was hoping for from the begginning :)

Hogosha and bounty hunters are the only real enemies for the Junkers. also, it states very clearly in the infocard for junkers that they carefully maintain neutrality in the Corsair/Outcast war. To maintian nuetrality you don't show favouritism. The Outcasts have supplied you with an extremely profitable source of drugs for many years, then the Junkers employ a Corsair. The Outcasts respect the neutral stance and don't push the junkers to take a side in the war, however you -still- do something that would enrage any Outcast. Please answer this comment. Does this, or does this not, show favouritism? Motive or not, this -is- favouritism.

It may show favouritism yes. But this may have been in response to the bullying the outcasts have done to Junkers in Sigma 13

Infact we are RPing it that way, we are so concerned that there is a Corsair who could cut our profits (especialy into Rhienland) being employed by an apparently neutral party, that we have found ourselves deserately resorting to threats after our calm diplomatic messages were ignored. We have stepped up the pressure.
I have at no point attempted to tell you how to roleplay, we have been discussing in an ooc way, the roleplay that is going on. You have assumed that our anger in character is somehow reflected by anger ooc. You're wrong. Its not.

I was directing that at Lohingren who say we can only collect scrap. I think one of you is mad ooc. But not all of you.

I see no uniform arrogance Culebra. Remember, as you said, the truth is in your head, you see arrogance? well for you its true then. I don't, thus for me it's offensive for you to label -all- outcast players as such.

Ok you are not arrogant. That's one outcast :P However Lohingren's posts tend to back up my arrogance claim and he is the leader of the ROS. But I am sorry if I offended you.

And Kudos to Cesar.
