Hunting pirates

[Allocutus]

For the love of all that is sacred, all be quiet. This has degraded into another pathetic flamewar. I see here Shagohad being slagged and abused for buying a large ship. What? Honestly, can you all not come up with something more important to argue over? Shagohad's roleplay as a SWAT-type character is, admittedly, not particularly sound, but one battleship is really that large an issue? I think not. He has now changed his ID to something more sound, and you continue to attack him. However shaky suddenly changing the Roleplay of a character may be, it is simply not practical for a player faction to force an independent to scrap any ship, much less a bloody battleship. If the KNF wishes to fully reimburse Shagohad for his craft, they may do so, but otherwise I see no reason for him to scrap it. And now I fear I must return to that long-despised topic of...

Petty Insults! A Chocolate-riddled pastry for any who saw this coming.

You have degraded to calling each other children. I will now focus all the fiery eyes here on myself by calling you all:

CHILDREN. What a surprise.

You are squabbling over territory and politicking something awful. As I see it, Shago is, indeed, looking for an excuse to keep his battleship, a slightly-less-than-well-thought-through purchase, but that in no way gives the KNF, which is just another player faction, the right to demand he scrap it. And now they want him to join up? Now THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is blatant. It seems to this board that they are simply trying to acquire another capital ship, free of charge. And, here I quote:

Read my previous post and go to the PvP server.

...lay off, will you? I am becoming more and more convinced that Chijin resigning his command was the worst thing that has ever happened to the KNF.

So please, everybody go home, go back to your business and forget about this thread. Shagohad, think before you act. LoTek and affiliates, don't try to restrict other players Roleplay because of your own. I bid thee goodnight.
