No, this is not a declaration of war with the SSO, it is a warning that we don't respect their 'Authority' and that we expect to be left alone. Also, I would suggest that they review the rules on PvP.
@Mal: You may indeed call me Mac. Once. But I do agree that death is not a service, but a sport, and who should be payed to play a game?
As to the Asgard Warriors, i have no idea what "Repeated attempts" you are talking about, as the action you refer to was the only time I had ever heard of SCRA vessels demanding cargo. If anyone has anything to tell me, now would be the time to do it. The SCRA is not about piracy, it is about returning to the home we left so long ago. The opening phases of thewt particular action were as follows.
1) On a patrol through bretonian space, a Container Transport bearing Police Tag was spotted, the name indicated no affiliation with the AW.
2) The SCRA vessels asked for several Passengers that were known enemies of the revolution, I believe there were 135 of them. 5000 - 135 = still alot of money.
3) When the transport refused, it was pursued and fired upon. It halted and agreed to hand over the cargo once it had been brought to about 1/3 health. Only then did dab enter the system and interve, at which point my PC crashed, and anything else I might add would be hearsay. I will not go on about what happened after I got back on, because that is a matter for the admins, not me.
In conclusion, get your facts right next time. We will not attack AW tagged vessels unless fired upon, but make sure all of your ships are correctly named, and NOT bearing Police tags. We are neither pirates nor mercenaries, unlike some I could mention.
