That was written, and pinned, on October 9th of 2009. In other words, it's been up there now for MORE than a FULL YEAR. There is no slight difference, as you so casually toss out there.

I meant it in support of the point that there was a slight change in language terms. Their meaning is completely different.
For the record, this was more against BlueSpawn than with him. XD.

So don't pull that "10 mil or die" bullshi* because they aren't supposed to have tea with you and talk about the weather. They are supposed to extort you with speed and aggressiveness. If I was a Sails character I would be paranoid that any second now my enemies of war would send allies to help them, I wouldn't waste a second on chatter, just steal the money and economically cripple them the best way I can.
Haha, no. You don't need to directly say that you are going to shoot somebody, it has been clearly written in the engagement rule that this is the case. Asking a demand, and the other party not fulfilling it in reasonable time and/or being witty about it, gets you killed. That's a clear engagement notice. If you can't see it, then you need to re-read the rule explanation for 5.2.
I guess when you got nothing really to say, that's essentially what you are going to say.
They were in house space and the military was going to pounce on them at any second. Obviously.:dry:(See above for what I meant about engagement notice and RP beforehand.)
It is the truth, and it supports the most objective point of knowing what to expect. Not my fault if you interpret it incorrectly.
