The rules say we can't shoot underlevel players though.

I created my order character (aki.kimura) something like 6 months ago now, and since creating the character, with the exception of the past 2 or so months, I did nothing but sit in 100 and blast smugglers, outcasts, and bounty hunters who decided to intrude all day long. I've destroyed well over two dozen smugglers with full loads of cardamine in 100, and many more of them got away (aint easy catching adv trains when they're nuetral to guard npcs and your train cd's piss off the guards). I've had to fight everything from rogue gunboats to outcast destroyers to bounty hunter battlecruisers and battleships, most of them on my own.
Sorry, but I've got no tolerance for non-order and non-allied players that poke their heads into the order guard system, and as far as I'm aware I have black squadron's full support in defending that system against such intrusions. I dont care if your'e in a starflea, a camera ship, or a battleship - As far as I'm concerned I would be OORP by not stopping you from entering or passing through 100.
And what really ticks me off is all these new rookie order players that take a stroll through O-100 and treat us "veterans" like we dont belong there... I may have to add cocky recruits to my kill list once 4.85 is out.
WOW, I would only have to change a few words and it would be the exact same arguement for me.
Tenacity, Maybe it is time to take a break. My LSF char was made about the same time and I got tired of:
Law, What law?
What Embargo?
Why should I stop for you?
You don't know the rules!!!!!
I was about ready to just *Scan*, Contraban? *Yes* Screenshot *Open fire* and that was the in Liberty systems. Thats why I had to go to a differant char for awhile. You have just one system to guard?
Oh by the way. Liberty thanks you for your hard work stopping all those poor ( ) smugglers.

Hell man, just ignore under lvl 30's, even if they have a non-civillian ID mounted I give them the option to bugger off, as they cant hurt me and I can kill them easily.
Yeah you are within the rules to kill him in the Order guard system, but really, is it worth the time?

' Wrote:The rules say we can't shoot underlevel players though.Like mentioned before, you can shoot underlevels in guard systems, which just brings us back to the beginning of all this. Also, is Alaska considered to be a guard system or a system that would get the same privileges as a guard system?
EDIT:
Quote:Hell man, just ignore under lvl 30's, even if they have a non-civillian ID mounted I give them the option to bugger off, as they cant hurt me and I can kill them easily.That's not the point. If these people think that they can go through without a hitch, then they could come back when they get stronger and can hurt you. Besides, new players need to understand that this is an RP server, and that the RP rules are very important.

No Alaska is not a guard system, all under lvl 30 civillian ID holders should be ignored, also players on set up should be ignored just through common courtesy.

Ok, well then I think that in 4.85 Alaska SHOULD be a guard system, because otherwise how can the LSF and LN stop players from just cruising through?
EDIT: Possible encounters with Nomads aren't good enough to stop people in Alaska since they can be avoided, in case you were thinking that:P

Hood
Actually I wasn't told specifically not to shoot him in that sense, least not in exact words, but I never did shoot him now did I? The problem in this case is, the under level player RPing and causing trouble but being immune? He wasn't a new player that was obvious, since theres a whole clan of them flying around with the same set up. (No IFF, Civy ID, low 20s, camera ship)
Quote:ell ... guess you'll have to role play without your guns. Oh ... shocking isn't it. I know ... its gonna be hard for you uber-caps ... but I'm sure you'll get the hang of it someday.
Hah, what you don't realize is I rarely use my guns on small ships. In fact yesterday during a nomad invasion/fight I barely fired my guns, letting the fighters duke it out while I rped a bit.
So before you judge someone just because they fly a capship.. .shut up and think a little.

I dont disagree, Alaska should be a no-go zone with Guard patrols and Guard gun turrets placed at the entrance of Alaska as stong as the ones in Vespucci.

Kinda but he made the first mistake of trying to flame my capship in such a way.;)

Well, since we're already off topic...
/Off topic
I think people exagerate on cap ships just because of a few people that abuse caps and don't respect RP, but there's not much you can do about it. I say just ignore em, they can't do much against you anyways without good reason.
