Mining profits

[Zelot]

Zelot,

Well first of all I'm not sure that the pirate I am referring to and the group that you are referring to are the same people. They may be or they may not.

I will say that my pirate displayed no faction indicator in their name (official or otherwise) if that helps any. Also the incident I am referring to occurred in Liberty space.

Here are my complaints about that particular encounter (as done by the ESPN Monday Night Football crew):

1. Pirating with a Freelancer ID? Come on man!

2. No RP but a simple demand in leet-speak? Come on man!

3. Making an unreasonable demand (100% of my cargo - which he could not even carry)? Come on man!

4. Ignoring my attempts at RP? Come on man!

Thus sayeth Boomer and the gang...

Of course, 2. and 3. are arguably within the letter of the rules (but not the spirit). My belief is that the player involved had no desire to RP, nor had he read the rules or the ID mounted on his ship.

IF, this guy was a member of that group that you were referring to... Some RP along those lines would have been appreciated. I made no real attempt to escape.

That doesnt seem at all like the group I am refering to, and others have refered to in this thread. These guys have no faction tag or indicator, but fly mainly GMG miners and Big Dragon Transports and have miner IDs, but they do operate in Liberty. But I have seen them ask for 100% of the cargo, if this is not the group you are refering to, I am sorry. But others in this thread have complained about them, so for those of you complaining about the players flying GMG miners, Whats the complaint?
