I just want to add that reading chat while being snubswarmed in a razorboat is nigh impossible.

Was a fun fight guys.

[Rodent]

Glad to hear it. We're all friends here, right? :laugh:

of course, Xavier still wants to murdersauce you but that's a different thing.;)

I will admit there have been fights hampered by massive numbers, where communication gets lost in the confusion. I have the entirety of the Reavers, including the GRP leader, who refuse to talk to me, and think I'm a scumbag, because I was at a disadvantage against three of them, asked for a duel, was given it, then while I was busy fighting for my life, two indies - including a =CR= - showed up, and engaged with one liners, and then two of my own faction saw a fight was under way, and did the same - by the time I knoew what was going on, I tried to order both My guys and The Indies out, but to no avail - the fight was on, and much swearing was had in skype about both me and my faction. Bridges were burned, and it wasn't even intentional - i did not request the indies, or my own guys - and my guys know better then to jump in on fights and make things unbalanced - but that doesn't change minds, does it?

In both instances you described, it seems the situation was interesting, if not numerically fair.

One cruiser against several snubs, depending on the cruiser pilot, will either be a slaughter, or a route. That particular cruiser pilot is one of the best on the server - if it had been me, you'd be painting a cruiser hull on your ships, and celebrating - in this case, the cruiser fought you off, and even killed a few of you. However, that incident produced another issue which is still being worked out.

As for the snub brawl and the gunboat - thats been discussed. Since it was P\R, had I been there, my rulling would have been to keep it out of the fight, and it looked like that was the intention. I can see how you could mistake it being in the fight, and lets not kid ourselves, the hard targets are always the first to shoot - both because of the prestige in killing them, and because the bigger usually is the more dangerous.

Either way, your opinions in this thread are much appreciated Rodent. Thanks

Hey! Not all of us refuse to talk to you nor do all of us think you're a scumbag. Anyways, seen some of your guys ferrying goods from Canaria; good to see you in the skies.

Don't play your pity party.

I have stated a few times that I will not deal with the CR until it sharpens up and acts like faction.

This did not happen because of that crap in Coronado with my Reaver. This is because your CR faction acts like idiots constantly.

I've heard you guys screwed around in Baffin with little to no RP and you've broken everything we have agreed on with you raiding Gallia. You haven't listen to a damn thing anyone has said, then you turn a blind eye on the matter and make yourself a victim.

Stop blaming others for your mistakes.

Best of luck to you! Hoping we can get more Roleplay between yourselves and the Unione Corse soon as well, what with certain plans on our part.

Along with a lot of swearing and cussing on skype.

That played a part - and lemme tell you how good it makes me feel, to know no one believes that what happened was not deliberate - way to know that my trustworthiness in this community is at absolute zero, so when I say "no, I did not organize a gank on the goddamn reavers" - no one believes me. Not even my friends. Not even my closest friends.
Great for the self esteem duncan, thank you.

I've heard you guys screwed around in Baffin with little to no RP

A TAZ decided to act like a nomad infested mad scientist - two of the CR decided to play along, and it got interesting - then two TAZ members showed up, one in a gunboat, made ultimatums in the middle of rp that was going on, then opened fire. That issue got solved both in skype and in forum roleplay. As for my guys, and the TAZ - the rp from both was legit - things just got blown out of proportion by emotion fueled skype comments.

Here's the link for the forum part

and you've broken everything we have agreed on with you raiding Gallia.

Last time we had a fight, you dropped two cruisers on us. We've since been content to fight other people. Either that, or have to fight one single GRP that none of us can kill, and that said person can waste every single one of us, one by one, with no effort, and cries gank even when the excess numbers are sitting out of it. Fortunately, he's a nice guy, so I don't even mind. But why fight him if we cant? Why raid at all when we get ganked now? We haven't broken anything - you made what happened in coronado personal, and now you use that as justification for how your faction deals with mine.

You haven't listen to a damn thing anyone has said, then you turn a blind eye on the matter and make yourself a victim.

Stop blaming others for your mistakes.

I am doing what I can to shape things up - I don't have a wealth of faction running experience, that maybe you do duncan, so some slack seems reasonable to me. But I am trying to reboot a faction that wasn't very popular, and I fully expected I would go through the mud by doing so. I'm still committed to trying to make the best out of, and I have listened.

If I treated all my guys like I have been treated like you duncan, I wouldn't have a faction - I'd have booted them all after one slip up.

*shrug* So, I give my guys some slack, tell them what they did wrong, trust them when they say their going to do better. I would prefer people give me and my faction the same courtesy - but I don't want to ask for anything - we haven't earned anything yet - still months and months of hard work to go.

No. Again you didn't listen. Back when there was that chat we were in and everything was cool, we put down some general things. You stated CR would never bring anything larger than a GB into Gallia. I've seen a cruiser in Gallia. After one of the raids, we had that discussion about you not going into the heart of Gallia as it was a bit OORP. Going into Lang and maybe Dauphine was alright. You've gone into Burgundy and IDF, possibly more.

And that one pilot. Yes, he is good. Yes, he wrecks stuff. He doesn't however cry gank, and never has. If anything, he has flown almost solo and has taken on more than just 1v1 or 1v2. Don't call him out on stuff.

And I've never said anything about a gank. GRP has never said anything bad about ganking nor do we care for that concept. Space is dangerous.

And with the Reaver thing. Sure, I was pissed off. But really it was more of a slap on my face than anything. I don't mind that it was an indie. The whole situation is moot, so don't bring that up. I don't care about it.

And that's cool about the TAZ. Didn't hear the full story on that, only the snips and bits from some skype conversations about it. I take that back.
