[font=Fixedsys]So, as one of the Security IMG Wing Members assigned to Dublin Section, I was informed that due to incidents the already cool climate in Dublin has become even more frosty. That's, Sir, to be honest, a problem.
As you are a brilliant diplomat and a real politician, I'm sure you will understand a simple action-reaction chain.
The second you charge an IMG ship the same amount of money as you charge the BMM, who - must I remember you? - has been your political enemy forever, will be the first time you will likely insult IMG personel in a way that might lead to a refusal of your demand. For your information: We only brought IMG personel to Dublin that isn't only neutral to the Molly cause, we hand-picked them to be supporters.
In a nutshell: If you don't respect the political relationship of IMG and Mollys (e.g. by treating us like your political enemy) we might not think of you as a Molly, to whom we normally have good ties and show goodwill.
Now, I know what your reaction to any denial will be. I've seen ship after ship disappear from the sensors and moments later detected the ripples of the explosions. Your ship is probably stronger than the IMG Security assets.
But rest assured that the time you open fire on an IMG vessel of the Dublin group, there will be evidence and it will stick on your bloody hands and you will regret any act of enmity against Dublin IMG assets. The Coucil has backed you so far, but read on and think critically how long this blanket will keep you warm.
Just imagine: There might be a time in which the BAF decides to cut down on you Mollys again. Perhaps after some clashes... like the last week's? They put up an embargo, restrict Molly movement, block the jump holes, isolate Molly Dublin, etc, etc.... Sounds painfully familiar, doesn't it? Now imagine there was no Hood access, no IMG neutrality or support in the sector because this power had decided to reduce their activity in Dublin due to some hostile actions, painful losses and an overall deterioration of economic opportunities. Imagine the "good people", your only supporters in Dublin, were gone.
I'd recommend you to think twice before you treat IMG the same as your Bretonian enemies.
With your little understanding of political implications, you should be careful in your actions. Don't go there. We might decide to leave you and your Molly friends sitting in Dublin with all your enemies alone. The director has hinted at it, and I'm fully prepared to move out our assets at once if you dare to disrespect the traditional Molly-IMG ties because of your petty little problems with some renegade/former/never IMG that didn't even really hurt you while your actions already hurt us a lot.

Ah Jack, good t hear from ye, no hard feelins eh?
Now, bou what ye sayin;
No I DON wanna fight the IMG, an NO I DON wanna tax em as much as BMM, if ye'll see me earlier messages ye'll see that AINT what I demanded, I AINT sayin; "yer fella attacked me now we're gonna take it out on yer other fellas"
What I said, no, ASKED was; "Yer fella attacked me, what the feck is this?"
Ye guildboss says "Dunno mate, he aint one o ours, mus be a fekkin traitor"
So I says; "fair enough, slack, but fair enough, So ye'll be kikin im out an no replacin his ship?"
To which ye reply; "errrrrr"
An thas where the problem is; yer apparent inability to do the OBVIOUS action, tha woul benefit BOTH o us!
Now yer sayin:
Quote:In a nutshell: If you don't respect the political relationship of IMG and Mollys (e.g. by treating us like your political enemy) we might not think of you as a Molly, to whom we normally have good ties and show goodwill.
When this fella came with a BATTLECRUISER AND SQUINT GUNBOAT to kill me
And you say:

Your even COMPARING charging extra to what he did? cos he was in Dublin, an let me tell ya, he WERNT no Molly supporter!
An EQUAL retaliation from me would be to hop in me Scylla, round up the boys, come up tau 23, an ha a game o rugby, wi ye miners as the ball.
Now I DONT wanna do that, I value our good relations, but you go on to talk bout abandoning us to the brets an blah blah, startin wi this:
Quote:But rest assured that the time you open fire on an IMG vessel of the Dublin group, there will be evidence and it will stick on your bloody hands and you will regret any act of enmity against Dublin IMG assets.

IMG,
"that the time you open fire on an IMG vessel of the Dublin group, there will be evidence"?
The only evidence o me shootin IMG ships was supplied by ME
IMG,
I
DID
NOT
SHOOT
FIRST.
This so called "IMG/Molly relations" was broken by YOU. In STYLE I might add.
But no, you say:
Quote:dare to disrespect the traditional Molly-IMG ties because of your petty little problems with some renegade/former/never IMG that didn't even really hurt you while your actions already hurt us a lot.
YOU DISRESPECTED US
and, "petty"? interestin ye think o a BC an GB as petty, would ya consider it so if it were you lads gettin attack.
But the MOST interestin part o that is:
Quote:renegade/former/never IMG
I noticed ye dancing about this issue;
Renegade? Then why won ye kick him out? How can he even be renegade if he's still in for ye to refuse to kick him out?
Former? Then he'll no be gettin a new BC and ye'll be makin sure he gets those IMG GUARD papers o his turned to civvies?
Never was? Lad; IMG BC, IMG Guns, IMG IFF, IMG GUARD ID.
You don really know what ye talkin bout do ye?
Remember I am ONLY asking for you to kick him out, I AINT EVEN asking for ANY reperations for his attack, it's YER lack o interest/ability/malign plans toward us, that is causin this SMALL sanction on ye.
Now Jack lad, do us a favour, an put that other fella back on, ee seems to know what hes talkin bout a bit more, I wouldn't want ye to say MORE recordable nonsense an contradictions tha ye an ye bosses might regret.

We're going to make sure that this gets straightened out, and that involves kicking out this rogue battlecruiser captain... This seems to be a recurring problem, and will be dealt with harshly.

Thas ALL I wanned t hear, I'll gi ye 2 days, durin tha I'll be taxin IMG low again, I reckon 2 days (bear in mind I STARTED this thread bou a week ago) is enough time to kick is arse royally, if no, I'll be wantin a good explanation, or tax goes back up, an yadda yadda yadda, we're back t square 1.
GOOD talkin t someone who KNOWS wha t do.

But, as I'm sure ye noticed, due to t BC "Rig 11" providin coverin fire for is lil friend, I lost me bargy, an we had to bring in our own cruiser Titan (aye, we can use em too mateys) to mop up that fat sack o shoite:
Now, while I will admit that losin a bargy to take a Hydra an Argus IS a fairly good exchange, I DON appreciate bein forced away from PROTECTIN Dublin for 4 hours while Im fixin up a new ship!
So, make wi the explanations, an make em good.

Greetings, Mr. Silver.
First, let me stress that efforts are being taken against those IMG rouges, with success.
Yesterday contact was made with a part of the rouges and some of their ships were destroyed in Omega 7 by an IMG anti rouge patrol. Patrols have been searching for them for many hours.
Sadly, as your report proves, this seems not to have stopped them from harrassing Dublin again.
Expecting something like this, I repositioned my Hydra Gunship to Dublin (Hood) today in the early morning hours to improve IMG coverage of the area that they seem to be operating in. The light Nyx wings which normally operate in Dublin are currently involved in the Omega 7 patrols.
I guess the rouges reacted to increased pressure in Omega 7 and looked for another territory to operate.
I can only promise the same as the IMG does in Omega 7: we will try to find these criminals and if we do, we will try to talk some sense in them ONCE and if they don't get it, we will try to obliterate them, as in Omega 7. Feel free to assist any of these efforts.
So, please tell the Mollys that the new Hydra stationed at Hood is a regular Hydra Guard gunboat assigned to protect innocents against the ongoing onslaught of these criminals. Mollys will be treated as allies and laws will be respected and I don't want some blue-in-blue incidents in the cause of the operation.
Yours sincerely,
Sean Henderson, IMG Guard Defence Wing, Hydra Gunboat stationed in Dublin during the emergency phase

Greetings, Mr. Silver.
Sorry to keep you waiting, but the Special Defence Wing had to bear the brunt of the rouge issue and we had to keep moving constantly. Still, I'd like to answer you:
First: The gunboat can be identified because it fields the official transponder signal of all IMG Guard Defence crafts with an unique ID code that your scanners will pick up. This code can't be used by the rouges.
Second: I guess you have no reason any more to enact your Anti-IMG policy because hopefully the acts of agression are over. Contact was established between the IMG Special Defence Wing (created to solve the rouge problem) and diplomatic channels were opened. The outcome can't be determined yet, but it is my firm believe that - at least as long as the negotiations are underway - there will be no attacks on Molly property.
So, I'd ask you kindly to refrain from putting your policy into action, seeing that the IMG has taken the appropriate steps to counter the threat against stability and peaceful cooperation in Dublin.
Feel free to renew your claims if I'm proven wrong and if rouges strike again in Dublin.
Yours sincerely,
Sean Henderson - IMG Guard Special Defence Wing
