RE: Police is not helping - BloodTree - 02-06-2013
Do you even read what I say i don`t have trade char so pirates try ask tax from my cruiser but they get bullets.
I have pirate char too.
Are you blind or living in your own imagination world?

So you've got a cruiser....
and you're Butthurt because the Police doesn't save your butt when Pirates make fun of you in their snubs?
RE: Police is not helping - Haste - 02-06-2013
I would like to remind all participants that pirates are in fact human beings, and are participating in our fantasy world in order to increase the lasting appeal for us lawful characters.
Should you find yourself face-to-face with one of these beings, you should consider the fact mentioned above before attempting to use excessive force in order to neutralize the threat they may prove, or may have proved to be.
It is indeed so that I am here pleading for the equal treatment and human rights of these remarkable individuals, for it is them who add spice to our normally boring lives, which would otherwise consist exclusively of the fining of civilians for broken tail lights, speeding (350 in a 200 zone is a common offense) and other trivial matters.
I have attached an image of a pirate in its natural habitat:

There are nice pirates and thous who make fun out of you if you make discussion with him it normally ends you vs 3 pirate. Or he don`t want cash he want blow trader up.
I already said before that pirates are better then Liberty Navy.

Yes, this is what Discovery has come to.

Here's another thing I find odd: When a zoner or IMG capital ship enters liberty, the whole navy rushes in to make them leave.
When rogue destroyers are pirating transports all over liberty, the navy and police just sit around, only a minute's travel away, doing nothing.
From my experience, independent police are more concerned about protecting people than official LPI's which are only after taxing and fining in most cases. Not always; I've seen some LPI who actually protected people, but for the most part they'll tax a trader who made a slight misunderstanding and completely ignore rogues or pirates that are pirating somebody the next lane over.

You must be really unlucky, then. Most of the patrols I've been in alongside other LPI, we ended up with a respectable number of blue messages if there was anything to blue message around.
And keep in mind the LPI is a company. It wants to make money. If we have a chance to get a nice fine, we go for it. That's good roleplay, and it's fine for us to have a somewhat "strange" reputation for it IN ROLEPLAY.
Please realize that this is a game. It's not like we're supposed to be rushing around with gunboats and liberators to optimally blue message everything. Both the lawfuls -and- the unlawfuls are around to have fun. It seems some people here think it's supposed to be some sort of competition where the lawfuls are supposed to win by keeping their space 100% clean and rid of pirates at all times.

Try having a scouting LF and a repairship before anyone around says that escorts are useless, mmmkay?
Also, BHG aren't police, they are paid mercs. Keeping law most of the time, yes, but mercs none the less.
Saying that police are useless is silly, I got chased by an LPI solaris cruiser just yesterday.

Dirty police

In my LPI I Never ignore distress calls.
One thing though:
Please explain me how my tiny Liberator can deal with a rogue destroyer.
I am really curious on what you propose me to do in the future.
