Hale here.
Good evening Captain. I am contacting you about the incident that occured recently in Manhattan orbit. I would like to know your reasoning behind your actions and words, particularly considering the conversation we had earlier with regards to proper behaviour.
I have been forwarded the chatlogs, and will intersperse the sequence of events with these communication logs.
As I understand, the events are as follows:
Now, in this situation, you should have done the following:
You will explain to me why you acted in the fashion you did. You will explain why you did not allow Johnson to remove the outcast.
You will explain why you apparently protected the outcast, despite the fact outcasts are considered hostile.
You will explain why you did not act in responce to the bounty hunter's hostile intent towards Mr Johnson.
I have been forwarded the chatlogs, and will intersperse the sequence of events with these communication logs.
As I understand, the events are as follows:
- An Outcast by the callsign 'Dusty' was flying around Manhattan space. Mr Ian Johnson acted in accordance with standard proceedure, and made an effort at removing the outcast.
Quote:[13.04.2012 20:29:08] Dusty: s u
[13.04.2012 20:29:11] Ian.Johnson: What the hell....hmpf...stop it already...I am getting a...headache of all that!
[13.04.2012 20:29:18] Ian.Johnson: Outcast.
[13.04.2012 20:29:22] Dusty: yes
[13.04.2012 20:29:23] Ian.Johnson: YOu are not welcome here.
- The LNS Omaha (your vessel) told Ian Johnson to back off. Johnson expressed his surprise at your request. You attempted to justify your request by saying the Outcast was a "newbie". Mr Johnson persisted with removing the outcast, as per standard operating proceedure.
Quote:[13.04.2012 20:29:29] LNS-Omaha: Ian back off
[13.04.2012 20:29:31] Dusty: i waas till u apeared
[13.04.2012 20:29:41] Ian.Johnson: Pardon?
[13.04.2012 20:29:46] Ian.Johnson: Are you sick?
[13.04.2012 20:29:54] Dusty: do u see me doing bad things?
[13.04.2012 20:29:56] Ian.Johnson: Outcast. I tell you...move away.
[13.04.2012 20:30:00] Heidi.Corefall: Now... Lets just stay calm. Theres no need to lose the civilty... tright?
[13.04.2012 20:30:02] LNS-Omaha: Hes a newbie so dont start anything
[13.04.2012 20:30:07] Ian.Johnson: You are a part of an illegal group.
- Johnson began to believe you were protecting the Outcast. Your calls to protect the Outcast were joined by the bounty hunter named Hiedi Corefall, attempting to persuade Johnson that the outcast was "alright" where he was.
Quote:[13.04.2012 20:30:31] Dusty: Ian we make it one on one?
[13.04.2012 20:30:31] LNS-Omaha: Ian, enough
[13.04.2012 20:30:41] Ian.Johnson: You protect that scum?
[13.04.2012 20:30:45] Heidi.Corefall: Ian, back off. He's alright here...
[13.04.2012 20:30:45] Ian.Johnson: Right....no...
[13.04.2012 20:30:50] Ian.Johnson: Really?
- The Bounty Hunter then issued a threat to Mr Johnson's life. Rather than supporting Mr Johnson, you appear to have taken the side of the Bounty Hunter.
Quote:[13.04.2012 20:31:32] Heidi.Corefall: Listen up, flyboy. I've had no problem in the past splashign navy, and I'll do it again if you cause trouble.. we clear?
[13.04.2012 20:31:34] Ian.Johnson: Since when is the Navy interested in-....friends.
[13.04.2012 20:31:44] Ian.Johnson: Riiight.
[13.04.2012 20:31:49] Ian.Johnson: There you go.
[13.04.2012 20:32:01] Ian.Johnson: Now leave.
[13.04.2012 20:32:06] LNS-Omaha: Ian, that was not helpful
[13.04.2012 20:32:20] Ian.Johnson: Shut the frack up already.
[13.04.2012 20:32:27] Heidi.Corefall: Overzealous navy flyboys... People wonder why I enjoyed gutting them...
- Mr Johnson understandably questioned this comment by the hunter. During this exchange you implied you would not assist, in case Outcast battleships joined in. There were no outcast battleships present, nor was there any indication Outcast battleship could have arrived. At the end of the next exchange the hunter asked someone to place a bounty on Mr Johnson's head. This is an illegal action by the hunter. One which you appear to have not objected to.
Quote:[13.04.2012 20:32:27] LNS-Omaha: You talking to me pilot?
[13.04.2012 20:32:32] Ian.Johnson: You are cooperating with criminals.
[13.04.2012 20:32:39] LNS-Omaha: Im stopping a fight
[13.04.2012 20:32:51] Ian.Johnson: Riiight. Whatever.
[13.04.2012 20:32:52] Ashley.Sunderland: How about you just let the guy do his job, if it wants it done so badly?
[13.04.2012 20:32:58] Ian.Johnson: And you are afraid of his friends?
[13.04.2012 20:32:59] LNS-Omaha: Right fine
[13.04.2012 20:33:00] Heidi.Corefall: Someone put a bounty on his head... Somebody do this right now.
[13.04.2012 20:33:16] LNS-Omaha: When those OC Battleships come after you i aint helping
Now, in this situation, you should have done the following:
- Allowed Mr Johnson to remove the Outcast. Outcasts are a threat to our national security. By allowing the Outcast to stay, you were acting in a fashion contrary to standard proceedure. There was no reason for you to act in a fashion contrary to standard proceedure.
- Assisted in detaining the Bounty Hunter, after the Hunter made a threat towards Mr Johnson's life. The Hunter broke the law.
You will explain to me why you acted in the fashion you did. You will explain why you did not allow Johnson to remove the outcast.
You will explain why you apparently protected the outcast, despite the fact outcasts are considered hostile.
You will explain why you did not act in responce to the bounty hunter's hostile intent towards Mr Johnson.
Hale out.
