The unspoken rules of engagement

[Baltar]

Here's a few ... most you've already mentioned ...

1. "Engaging hostile" ... same thing as the simple "engaging" plus one word ... annoying as heck.

2. Hunters showing up to collect in capships (sometimes with friends in capships) ... rules and proper bounty postings are cracking down on this phenomenon.

3. Lawfuls attacking pirates with no bounties on them ... don't mind being harassed with a little verbal role play such as "don't cause any trouble pirate ... or we'll come down hard on you." But please ... keep the guns stowed until you have evidence I've actually done something wrong. Even cops cannot arrest a criminal without evidence ... wouldn't stand up in court and the judge would yell at the cop for wasting the court's time.

4. Traders posting 100 mil bounties on a pirate and then complaining when a pirate demands 5 mil. Come on ... get real. By this I mean there are too many "forum" complaints about how much a pirate demands ... yet these are the same guys posting the outrageous bounties. Don't be a hypocrite.

Too tired to list more ... but there's quite a few.
