Organized Crime, or lack there of?

[JosephRaiken]

I have noticed out of everything that Discovery does not have is Organized Crime RP. There is no "Mob" or "Mafia" that tries to monopolize smuggling, arms dealing, or things of that sort.
With, the pirate factions of liberty it would be relatively easy to establish a RP of such. With most of the pirate factions in league with each other there, besides the Xenos of course. A Syndicate or Mob would have a boss who organizes player smuggling operations and decides who gets a cut and who gets cut. Lieutenants who carry out hits and such. The almost Freelancing pirates are disorganized and that is why a lot of factions namely LPI and LSF have gained such power is because the crime syndicates moved out to the Omegas and Omicrons where they can roam, for the most part unchallenged.

I think that there should be some sort of Mob or Mafia involved in the Houses. This would add quite a few interesting events into the life of Liberty, Rheinland, Bretonia, and Kusari. Of course the person who starts this would have to have large resources and connections to not only gather the right people for the jobs but also be able to make those jobs profitable enough to stay. Plus this would give the police forces more to do than put down and denounce revolutionaries all day.;)


Just a few cents on an idea.

I bet it has been tried before.

It is every citizens right to preserve their morals and their beliefs. However, it is every citizens DUTY to bring about equality.
Capitalism is based around taking advantage of the working class to increase profits. People like you and me are only a dollar sign to them. It is our duty to show these Capitalists what the true meaning of a revolution is, it is not just radicals fighting for change. It is the PEOPLE fighting for what is RIGHT, what is TRUE!

Marxism is the true and right ideal that we should all embrace. Communism is the process in which that ideal is accomplished. The people of Sirius just need pure leaders who will to the end remain incorruptible.
Are you one of those leaders?

It's called the IND. I dont know if they conduct hits but they do the rest of that. They even have Mob lawyers which I am sure we will hear about on this thread soon.

That is all.

Ahh I just read up on them, very nice;)they pulled off the Business Mobsters and with style. Too bad I dont see more of them, but on the other hand maybe I do and I dont know who they really are:P

And I would love to hear some of these lawyers! *Cough* If I were the IND I would heavily support the blockade between Rheinland and Liberty because blockade = higher profits.

O.0 WUT!?!?

The Council of Dons (Outcast) are cartel leaders of 90% of the cardi smuggling out of Alpha, Council of Elders (Corsairs) Run many smuggling & pirating operations, LR ( Liberty Rogues) are THE crime syndicate in Liberty space, & there are so many more that are organized..

Trust me.. some are far more organized than you think ( *cough* PAY OFFS *cough*)

That is all.

That kind of talk is scandalous and libelous. If you continue to make those kinds of baseless accusations I will be forced to file suit, and take every last one of your possessions. If you resist, I will direct you to the large gentlemen in trench coats over my left shoulder.

Yes, there is no organized crime, we agree.

We Junkers know nothing about such endeavors.

We're slowly building the Hogosha in Kusari. There isn't a large monopoly to be made in Arms dealing inside the Kusari house, and our slave business is mostly secretive (Somethine we keep hidden even from the KSP). But mainly we're beginning discussions on Human slave trafficing. We do run Artifact Convoys from Crete to Kusari.

There was once a discussion on "protection" money for foreign traders. Those that didn't want to pay, would be contracted onto a private Bounty List for AFA, and Hogosha. But some people felt this would deter most traders away from an already Xenophobic Nation, although the idea may crawl back up.

Right now our efforts are mostly aimed in Kusari. We control smuggling by basically "policing" traders and exploiting the authority and government. We claim we are just proud citizens, upholding Kusari law infront of the lawfull players, but when they arn't around, we're quite quick to anger. Anyone I see dealing in light arms (if it's not going to a Kusari police base), slaves, artifacts, synth marj, Counterfeit-software and likely some new commodities in Reuinion are promtly stopped, destroyed, or relieved of their cargo and kicked out of the system. Or a mix of a couple of the options. And why do you think most junkers rarely come into Kusari? Because they get exploited or destroyed. Junkers have a hold on the outside smuggling ring, and Hogosha have most control in Kusari. Junkers threaten the expansion, and structure we have in Kusari, and so a kind of "gang" war has been raging on.

Plus this would give the police forces more to do than put down and denounce revolutionaries all day.

Sadly our police are quite leniant.. After all shouldn't a good mob have it's police contacts? And I maintain a low radar when I'm bringing goods through other Houses.
