@Nighthawk and Swift

[swift]

First off, Elgato, this has been a long running conversation that was started by Nighthawk in a thread that had absolutely nothing to do with this. I posted a new thread because, as Athenian said, it was off topic. I think it is a perfectly acceptable resolution, because now we can continue the conversation without hijacking someone elses thread, and you can't have a converstation with multiple people in PM.

Continuing.
Nighthawk did.
By no means do I intend to kill someone while they are typing. If you're sitting there counting down, it's one thing, hell yeah i'll kill you. But I will attempt to cruise first, before I open fire, then I will go to thrusters if I can't cruise, while firing. There is no trade ship that puts out enough damage to down a bomber in the time it takes to cancel out of typing and take evasive action. That's rediculous.
Finally, my intentions are not to kill the pirate, they are to get away. I may, in the process of trying to escape, kill a pirate at some point, maybe. But I will never give away that first 30 seconds to the pirate to type in a message when i could potentially escape. My escape, or the lack there of, provides much more opportunity for roleplay, as I explained in the first post.

Why do I care about what Nighthawk said to you?
Anyways, since you're "not planning to type kill pirates", why did you oppose my statements in that chat, since they were all directed at how you should not type-kill pirates.
What stops you from RPing with a pirate, really?
Anyways, for those like yourself, I used to just go with the "die die die" treatment. Don't be surprised if every other pirate out there does the same.

It's eventually much more profitable if you just go RP with a pirate and decrease the price significantly, than just try to run and get yourself killed in 90% of cases.
It's your call.
