Okay, I'll do my best to respond to both of you now.
Seafalcon.
Are you referring to secondaries as in capital gunfire? I assume from the same Dunkirk that docked on FP1?
I really have absolutely no clue why you're here with that complaint. Does BMM own Dunkirks? Was it BMM- tagged? If so, do let me know so I can have it forcibly renamed.
The actions of the BAF| or BAF indies is neither under my control, nor that of the BAF|.
As for sportsmanship - if you're in Conneticut, and someone is supplying bots to someone you're dueling, then that's unfair and poor form. If you're in a roleplay situation, you're the bad guy (bad guy bad guy) and the good guy is losing, then in roleplay it would be criminally negligent and prosecutable of the good guys present to fail to provide assistance and allow someone to die as a result.
Your QQ at being outmatched and about some Dunkirk I know nothing of is unwarranted and irrelevant here, and that's being generous.
I do take some offense that you think we don't know how to behave. Other than disagreeing, there's nothing more I could actually say on that bit.
Tobi.Reaper.
Good to hear on the flying front then.
As a person who doesn't own a merc, I was never clear on it, but it was a case of ambiguity and not false belief. Regardless, I don't believe Collector was actually saying you can't collect bounties because you're a freelancer. Everything we've talked about prior, during and after his ship popping would tell me he knows that you can collect on it, quite explicitly.
Moreover, his primary complaint was that you didn't explain the bounty - who, why, etcetera. He wished it was more than a less-than-1-minute interaction. Obviously rules-wise, you're not obliged to. After hours of activity in fields mining lonely, you can understand why we'd want some sort of decent interaction when someone comes along.
With regards to your ganking comment. You sure it was a Bowex) fighter? Much more likely was a Bowex) Clydesdale. You were fighting a freighter, not a fighter, bud. A 2v1 is hardly a gank - we just happen to have more support, which is reasonable and there's nothing stopping you from running. A BMM transport shooting at you is odd, our Titanics are normally ordered to move along while escorts deal with things.
If the Bowex) or respectively the BMM ships asked one another to back off, then it is a problem. If you want to discuss that matter further, can you let me know the names of the BMM fighter, transport, and whether they were BMM- tagged or not?
WITH THE ALL CAPS, HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY FIND THIS TERRIBLE? IT MAKES EVERYTHING SO MUCH EASIER! In all seriousness, I can't stand it either. Please give me names and evidence so I can discuss it - we definitely don't want people capslock chatting.
