Engagement Notice

[agentmike]

If it had become plainly obvious that they were moving to attack and the command had been given (even if it's rather odd for a bomber pilot to be giving orders to the commander of a capital ship), then I think that they were keeping to the spirit of the rule, and for you to press the matter further wouldn't be any fun for anyone. Though since you were saying 'getting screens', I doubt there's any good me saying that.

Not really relevant: but that guy going NOOB isn't ... it's... uh. I give up.

yeah, i am not looking to seriously press the matter.
but, if i need to, i am prepared to do so.

but i did talk to the guy, and he apologized. he did seem very apathetic to the situation, but at least he did say he was sorry.

i still didnt fire a single shot though, because they took me by surprise and i wouldnt have stood a chance by the time my shields and hull were so far down. i was expecting some form of RP from them, and i didnt get anything at all. so i just sat there and let them do what they would. and collected my screens if i needed them.

i wish this rule wasnt so gray. to me, if a person is going to engage, especially in a capship, there should be some word from them. not just the orders from someone else. who am i to judge whether or not they want to carry out those orders. especially coming from a bomber!

you have got to be joking.....

joking about what?
