Nice tunnel vision. What is wrong with firing on someone to ensure that they know your character is a jerk? I don't understand, again. You're stopped, and the pirate still wants to talk. What is the problem?

It is quite simple, you are robbing me and I intend to lose as little credits as possible to you. I also intend to make it to my destination. Damage may stop me from making it to my destination and will cost extra credits.

After you CD me I stop. Fire an SN after I stop, go look somewhere else for your credits. Piracy is skilled diplomacy not showing off how big your guns are. If you want to do that, go find a lawful cruiser, it can put you out of your misery.

I am a Zoner, I am skilled in diplomacy, my entire faction is. I know how to make it so that piracy can work for both of us, so do not be a jerk and try to establish your manliness, ask politely, it will get you further.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
