As for the thread you linked to, you said yourself in it that we sat around chatting for over an hour. As Joe said, for the LN if we're not roleplaying take some screenies and send them to one of the admirality and I'm sure they'll go crack some heads for it. Myself, I'm not that great at RP, but if you take the lead in a convo I can do pretty well. As for the capships, we try REALLY hard to 1. stop them from coming or 2. if they come not have them engage. Having a battlecruiser or something come and show up along with soem fighters against a force of outcasts fighters can make some sense though. As long as the battlecruiser doesnt engage, it could be a show of force to try and scare the otucasts off or something. Scaring them off would possibly save some of the fighter pilots lives. If something like that happens, you could do something like run away to the badlands then taunt us until we send in just some fighters after you.
I know that doing all of this is asking a lot of you. As someone said ealier, Liberty and especially New York is a cluster**** and I applaud you for being an unlawful here. All I'm trying to suggest is take some of that cluster**** and make some RP of it if you can.
So ya, I probably am completely biased here as I have about 3 Liberty lawfuls and my only unlawful is a corsair but I mean it couldnt hurt to try right?
I would like to say though that, as a lawful at a certain point there really is nothing left but to give an ultimatum. It can get to the point where they've Rped a bit and the lawful has stated his demands or whatever and the pirate/whomever isnt obeying. Then, there really is nothing else to do. We cant just fly off and leave you to your business as it kind of is our job to keep you away as lawfuls.
I would like to make a comment, especially about gunboats in Liberty. When you come and the only forces we can muster against you are 1-2 fighters and a battlecruiser, you should probably expect the battlecruiser to come after you. Unless the fighters are equipped with torps, theres little to no chance they can beat a well-played gunboat and as I said above, it is kind of our job to keep you away as lawfuls so we arent just going to do nothing.
