' Wrote:From what I understand, the Freelancer ID could also act as a pirate, and is not accountable to any known lawful group (local or foreign).
Of course, if the local mining factions such as Samura and Kishiro were to lobby to have that law changed - then maybe it would be.
My issue with this law comes from watching a pair of KSP officers pull over a Freelancer ID'd Clydesdale (no IFF, no armour - clearly a new player) and demand him to drop his Helium-3, which he had apparently bought from some GMG ship. What good does it do to restrict a commodity which was acquired purely through legal methods, and the sale of which would (inRP) bring money to Kusari, albeit indirectly? Should I be taking this to the KSP feedback thread?
In terms of game mechanics, Freelancer ID'd ships aiding pirates should be rephacked hostile to lawful factions, as that is a necessary part of all bounty contracts (excluding assassinations and on-the-spot hiring).
