Can't speak for the rest, though I'll be brief about my departure.
There was a reason I left the first time, I made it my job this time around to correct that. Didn't get everything done, though I definitely did enough to where I was satisfied. Created some stuff that I believe will remain valuable to the rest of the team. Oh, and I touched up these too. Will have to give credit to @Alex. for helping me with a chunk of it.

I mean to break no server rules by making this post- if it violates a rule then I'm sorry in advance, remove it and address it in whatever way it needs.
The question I have however, is very genuine.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcTYZ1jvVOo
Could we have a genuine set of reasons as to why this is "unacceptable & therefore sanctionable"?
The level of hate INRP for Miner's will differ from OC to OC and their individual char's experience. The Taus are an INRP heavy battleground where many enemy forces have potential to meet.
Any resource/commodity passing through here would INRP be considered "high value" - or at least in great need due to the INRP risk of the open warzone between CR, OC, IMG, BAF/GRN/KNF/ lawfuls and unlawfuls/etc.
An OC with very bitter experiences of being forced to "drop all" without exception would quite likely demand all of an enemy's cargo be dropped, take it or wreck it.
~The ONLY reason I can potentially see as to why this is a sanction is the clarification of the demand itself; It started as a "I want the valuable cargo" - (You can only carry a small amount of the transport ships cargo as a Capital ship)- Ergo, the demand "Changing" from "I want it for value" to "Wreck it all".
My personal char has zero desire for piracy- but this isn't about specific chars.
Clarification requested please?

Could I ask for an update on my PR? It's been almost a week and it's a simple sci data req.

This is the sanction notice for the incident in question and reflects our policy. Unless there's extenuating circumstances, such as specific ID lines, we want to limit the victim's losses to either a portion of profit in the case of credits, or only as much as the pirate can carry in the case of cargo. The reason for this is that we've decided that the amount of toxicity generated after being on the recieving end of spite is really not worth the 'fun' generated by the person dishing it out. Piracy can be done healthily if trader PLAYERS don't feel like it's better to just log off rather than haul, and that can come at the cost of some RP backstories and some fun derived from bullying traders.

Our response times are suffering from being down to three admins, and having a large backlog - we're going down the list and will try to get to everything as soon as we can

Does this in turn mean that a IMG/other faction cannot demand the full drop of Cardamine/any other "contraband" in the name of the same said "fun"?

I stand corrected 8|
Looks like something that needs to be addressed, no lawfuls come close to that - and IMG are more unlawful than lawful in terms of their play )))
