Liberty Navy [LN] Feedback Thread

I believe he can, since it isn't an act of piracy and you're a combat target.

Transports aren't combat targets unless they make themselves so by firing.
This rule is there not so much for RP but for fairplay to protect traders, so, while I agree that the Harris's action were certainly in keeping with roleplay, I as a pirate cannot do the same to a trader, irregardless of it's keeping in roleplay.
If you're familiar with the current situation in EVE between pirates and traders (where the pirate gets the trader to pay 30mil and then blows him up and takes his cargo anyway), it's clearly apparent why we have this rule.
But that's besides the point, as the encounter started with two of the [LN] as exactly that, a lawful "piracy" attempt (piracy by server rules under 6.6).
A multi-part demand was made, I complied with the first part, stated my continued compliance with the rest and was in the middle of attempting to transfer the fine to.....whatshisname ,and the Harris came in and basically said " screw that, blow him up."
(well maybe not that crass, but it was the gist.)
