Mea culpa

[BlastedRemnants]

My biggest regret comes from about a month ago. I had been playing for about a month (I found this game late) and was Freelancing as "Gregor Heinz" until I had a better feel for what faction was right for me. Anyway, I'm zipping around in my Raven's Talon or Claw, the one that looks kinda like a SR-71, exploring and looking for good mining zones, when I get pirated by two guys in California. I happened to come through the the jumpgate the same time as a trader did and the pirates figured I was escorting the trader. I halted and listened to their demands, but I didn't feel like waiting around so I did the "/givecash" thing, said "You're paid, I'm out." and began to cruise away. After a brief chase the pirates destroyed me and I lost the 500k I had paid and my cargo. So yeah, I regret using the "/givecash" thing because apparently the pirate didn't get it in time, or didn't notice. I didn't bother saving the picture I had of the chat window showing his demands and my payment, followed by my destruction, mostly because I'm a noob and any fault in this situation was probably mine.

On a side note, I have gotten a bit closer to picking a faction, anything that kills pirates, hahaha!
Also, no ill will here for either of the pirates involved (if they remember, I forget who they were) thanks for the lesson!
