I laughed my arse off when I pirated a Camara, level 42, in my Stiletto, asking for 15k. He F1s, I respectfully PM the Tridente barreling at me that he shouldn't do that, and then run. Like a wingless duck in July. On ice. Wearing a Fedora.

So, if I carry food to Gamma, does that mean the OPG will leave me alone?

Just kidding, I can see your point tho.

My trader (Mickk) has the Corsairs on the green list, which means that the NPC Corsiars don't shoot me which is kinda nice, but has no impact on me at the moment because I don't normally travel where the Corsairs are at.

By the same token, I CAN NOT go anywhere near Malta simply because I would get creamed by Outcasts.

If I was to go to Crete with food, what could I take out that wouldn't get me in trouble for smuggling and still make me some sort of profit?

Yes, carrying fertilizers, mining machinery, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods and food towards Crete will actually earn you an escort to Crete, unless we're busy. From there, you can take artifacts and haul them back to wherever you came from.

If only the economy functioned properly in this game...

Y'know how great it'd be to see planet crete so full of food you cant walk through the streets, with fatso hispanics stumbling over cookies and cake in the streets... but the mighty corsair nation having no ship hull panels, no fuel, no weapons, nothing to keep their war machine going?

Yea, you're idiots, plain and simple. Let's see you build praetorians and imperators out of cupcakes and sweet rolls, mr. magician. Like it or not, not everyone who comes into "your" space is going to be bringing food, and as far as I'm concerned you'd be OORP trying to blow up those shipments headed to your bases - no matter what cargo they're carrying.

Further, with this whole congress-directed ordeal lately... you do not own cambridge. I dont care how big you envision your pirate ego to be, but there is not a single corsair base in that system. If you dont field a base there, you dont control what happens there, period.

The corsairs have gotten far too big for their shoes.

You appear to have forgotten the [/frothingatthemouthandsmashingthekeyboardwithyourhead] at the end of your post there Tenacity.

BB Code exists for a reason y'know.

But that would be a lie. I'm not frothing at the mouth and I'm not banging my head on the keyboard.

I'm dead serious. The new attitude towards the rest of the playerbase shown by the Corsairs, though primarily by the OPG, is ridiculous, and I honestly hope it kills the entire faction off.

As I told Ivan via PM after he asked me about this... I used to love the OPG, they were my favorite corsair faction, until this crap started, and now their behavior has made me despise the entirety of the corsair affiliation.

They used to be better than the outcasts. Now, as far as I'm concerned, we have two wannabe houses full of lolwutters instead of just one.

First off, don't call me an idiot, because I'm surely smart enough to abuse that, but I'm also a good guy so there's no need for that.

Second, what the hell do you know about our deals?
Entire OPG brings engine components, mox and counterfit software and all the sweet things you neutrals would like to get your hands on. Well, no deal man. Not to you, not to bitter people that want to better themselves and think only about your personal greedy rp.

Here's the deal, we have hogoshan traders bringing us engine comps, we have an JUNKER FACTION that is bringing us all those parts as well, but I'll never tell who are they, just because of people like you that are just jealous.

Crete is a planet. Big planet. With alot of people. Biggest criminal organization in Sirius. Feed the starving people that i backstabbed to get into space.

Greedy, jealous... right.

Am I the one that suddenly decided I'd go around demanding 5 million credits from every trader that passes through a particular system, regardless of how much profit the trader is actually making from his cargo? This isnt even after the whole argument in your congress thread, that's how much your jackoff OPG rats were trying to get me to pay a month ago.

Sorry, if you want someone to pay that kind of money, how about you show them the route that makes 15 million each leg first? How's that sound?

The Hogosha hardly even existed in 4.84. Even the AFA made it out of Kusari once a month at most. For the past -two years-, the primary faction supplying the entirety of the Corsair Nation has been the Junkers, and now you've decided that you're going to stomp all over us, spit on what's left, and rob us to boot?

Am I the only one here that recognizes how arrogant your group has become?

The OPG, and Corsairs as a whole, have lost sight of who their 'friends' are, dont act surprised when you realize you no longer have any. YOU (directed at the OPG as a whole) are the ones who brought this on yourselves, dont whine at other players when you cant handle the consequences.

This whole argument would never have existed in the first place if you had simply told your pirates to refrain from attacking junkers unless they were specifically carrying enemy cargo. I can understand not wanting someone to haul blood diamonds or cardamine - I have never hauled any cargo of that kind through Corsair space - but when you selfish rats start trying to pirate me for cargo that I'm carrying to YOUR bases, that's going over the line.

You know what's the problem here, you're just too loud so you make other people type less. Just because you have these opinions, doesn't mean that others share them you know?

When I said not all junkers think like you I meant it, and I'm friendly with those that don't. Those that respect the fact that they should make deals instead of DEMAND DEMAND
It's always give give give with you guys, and nothing in exchange. I don't see how the hell do Corsairs earn anything when they sell you artifacts for 2mil and pay you 12 for counterfit software. Sounds like a loss to me.

But hell, loss is ok, when you're ally or a friendly. So we allow all Hogosha and FA and whoever we're friendly with to actually trade those things to us and make Crete lose some cash. Because Hogosha aren't so active, we have decided to go to more hardcore rp in hope we'll increase their numbers. And guess what, we did.
Also, I have taken a liberty (and gotten a permission) to contact a junker faction to haul us things we can't get from hogosha.
We are turning OTC to hogosha and running ecomps and artifacts to Crete.

Believe it or not, Crete improved. And if losing you is the cost, I'm fine with that.
Remember, because you're loud, doesn't mean everyone is like you.
But I'll tell you something, if you'll stay bitter like this and take things in your own hands, you'll become a very bitter man.
OPG enjoys PVP. Thats why not all of them can pirate with level of rp you expect. And your threat is us regreting it when it comes to pvp?
How's that even remotely a threat man?

Are you even reading my posts?

I spent over -six months- trading food rations to Crete during 4.84. FOUR POINT EIGHT FOUR, y'know, back when food didnt make crap for credits? When, even with a 5k Transport (which I never owned, but that's beside the point), you would only make a few hundred thousand credits hauling munchies to your barren planet.

After all of that, the only thing I get in return is "You've never done anything for crete, so we're going to pirate you for 5 mil, blow up your ship, take your cargo, rape your wife, and enslave your kids" from every one of you.

I've done my part, what the hell are you doing to keep business from players like myself? Huh? I'm waiting for an answer to that, Ivan.
