As a Pirate, and in a ship as yours, "solo", you have to be on your toes. In my humble opinion, if you are Hostile to the person you stop, you disrupt them and you are ordering them to do something, you are engaging in Hostile activity.
I stop you in the street, I look Hostile, I am holding a gun and tell you I want to see your wallet . . . if you had a Gun pointed at me, would you shoot? (I would)
-Keep moving and do not be a target if possible when you do stop someone who is well armed.
-You could be a Diplomatic Pirate. Some unlawfuls do this and they make more money. They RP well too. For example, some RHA and GC players do very well in both departments.
-Last week, I was stopped in Magellan by a Hacker in a Gunboat outside the Freport.
He said "Cut your engines and prepare to be scanned."
I typed: "You are of course joking Hacker."
I was a BH (Tag and IFF) in a BH Cruiser.
"Ahhh . . . you are a little bigger than I had thought!"
We RP'ed and not a shot was fired. He really needed to be more attentive to what he was doing however.
-I commend you for reaching out and asking questions. I commend you on the RP nature of your ship.
Please feel free to rob me at any time . . . if you can catch me. :P
