' Wrote:Actually Templar, and this you know full well, the BSG DID shoot first. My internet crashed when BSG was still about 6k away. By the time I restarted the router and logged back on, the other NovaPG (pay attention to who your fighting) were dead and I was being shot by one of the Albatrosses. Before the black screen finished loading. I should even have screenshots. (I'll check when I get home.)
And the reason we were there was because TBH helped SCRA in the war, then refused the first peace treaty we offered. And Benitez and OPG began helping them in battles. We retaliated. We left the BSG alone, even when you were attacking Vespucci, and did so in Gamma until I was shot at. Of course, seeing as how BSG are self-admitting 'Fellow Corsairs' as you said in Gamma, I can see how you would shoot a non-combatant.
And now BSG have attacked Theta 3-4 times, and we even found one of you docking Freeport XV in Omicron-74. I think thats plenty of reason to retaliate. And even chase you to Tau-23, where you ran to after the Caedo told you it would stop you from entering the Omicrons, and you cruised around and entered Alpha. We retaliated in Tau-37, where you then retreated to Tau-23, and we followed.
So if you don't think we should have crossed swords, you shouldn't have shot first.
Dab..me, as one of the leaders of BSG, have always spoken that IMG, and that means BSG too, wont ever attack zoners. We don't have nothing against zoners and we we always help them. I, personally never intended to fight against any zoner. Also, your "blockade" of freeport 10 and alpha jh in tau 37...explain that to me in RP sense...If outcasts are afraid of us raiding them in Alpha let them blockade the JH... God knows they are strong enough to do that. And the FACT IS outcasts are IMG RP enemies.
So what i see here, is AW going against RP...BSG, as IMG has full right to help TBH as they are Corsairs and IMG and Corsairs are on the same side in that outcast vs corsair war. I personally led first mission to help TBH and there was only one AW eagle there. He fired first at us. I ordered to all my fleet that shooting on zoners is forbidden. Event that you mention happened later.
You all accuse BSG of being pvp whores, of being very aggressive and doing what we shouldn't do.
Every time there is BSG online one of BIG ALLIANCE (101st , AW, HF, NovaPG, Bushido) attacks us. Even private chars aligned with Outcasts in any way finds some way to attack us. Well, when we get attacked we WILL retaliate. I always listen how BSG are cap whores too...and i find that funny...nobody except me didnt mention one certain event that has happened two weeks ago when one viper and one bomber killed 2 destroyers with 101st tag, one outcast destroyer flown by private char and one who fled from us...leaving only Browning living..you see...i flew the viper and all that i could see is big ships coming at us..not one sabre came our way... Your AW general who you are so proud of...attacks our vipers in GB...so..you see...we have right to retaliate with big ships...
I don't care about any RP explanations, i don't consider AW to be zoners, but as long as they carry Zoner tag i will reduce contact with AW to a minimum...Thats for me personally...and if things get out of hand i will issue order to whole BSG to avoid any contact with AW...I don't like idea of IMG and Zoners fighting each other and i stay by it.
Dont be mistaken, as i said to Ripper, in PM few days ago, i am very well aware of the fact that if BSG and AW go to war that all of your allies will help you...no matter how far from RP that can be...i saw it before, and i don't doubt that i will see it again. BSG cant compete with 4 or 5 factions...but we do fight our fight alone
I have been here for two years now...never had any trouble with AW until recently..in past few moths things are getting out of hand...Igiss may have been right to say AW should be zoners, back THEN..now it is just wrong...if you wish to keep your alignments, your way of foreign politics, and general behavior of being better then the rest, feel free...but calling yourself zoner in that case is wrong..
also i do agree with McNeo, i feel this is lost cause...and no matter any of us say you will continue to do things your way, no matter how right we are...
best example of that will be your answer to this post...
