Cooperative Killing- Starting to bug me.

[obnoxious1]

The problem is theres no way to make an arrest.

Sure, the police could bring you to a prison station, but that station is going to be hostile to you and youll be unable to dock, hence no arrest. At that point, the arresting officer would have to just let you go.

Blowing a ship up is the only way supported by game mechanics to stop a criminal.

I'm not saying that killing a surrendered criminal is good RP, but theres very few viable alternatives.

There are some alternatives.. They just seem to have faded out for one reason or another.

I remember when I first started on Disco, that the Liberty Officials (LN, LSF, LPI) would fine ships breaking Liberty laws. If the offender refused to pay a reasonable fine she/he was either banished from Liberty or in some cases killed ( depending on the crime, whether they tried to flee.. yadda yadda)
Criminals that escaped would have bounties placed upon them thus adding more people in to the role play.

Now it just seems to be a pew pew pew festival anytime I take a character into Liberty.
But I have noticed some changes back to the older ways & for the better from at least one of the Liberty factions, Kudos to them for trying to make things more in line with RP & crossing my fingers that the other factions take notice & follow suit.
