How NOT to pirate - Muleo - 04-16-2008
I was passing through Chugoku to Kyushu, when someone tells me to halt.
Navy tag, Blood Dragon ID, Raven's Talon. What surprised me was he actually had a train CD.
After his 10 demands of "pay now" I jumped to Hokkaido, and engaged cruise, he CDed me. Then I stopped he stopped next to me, I took a few potshots at him, and as he circled to dodge the shots, I started cruise again and managed to escape. Then he started to say, "I will take photo, and put it on forums" and "You will be banned for not paying tax"
I thought this was too funny not to share.. XD
If the pirate in this incident, IS on the forums, please PM me and I'll give you a few pointers regarding pirating.
Asno out.

Hahaha... He tried to pirate me in Hokkaido... i said to him
i have 306 credits I'll pay you when i am returning
And he said then you'll die...
And then I killed him in my Adv train...
He is new and i noticed that instantly... and i really wanted to pay him but he didn't
want to wait so he died.. i would give him cargo but he just attacked me...
He is new... no worries he will learn... was funny though

Typical view - 'pay or die, pay or die' - like machine.
Although I usually pay up because I am not really curious about their retarded whining.

your right to refuse to pay tax - mind you, not paying tax to anyone but the official player faction, no matter of RP is a bit like what templar said ... that he only obeys the orders of official police and never an independent.
mind the Roleplay - your char doesn t know much of a difference between the nova pg and any other blood dragon. ( actually, a blood dragon has a birthright to tax you there - the nova pg are hessians )
the fact that his tag did not match his ID is a matter of game mechanics, - but as it stands, the ID is the important thing. - you basicly refused to pay a blood dragon, no discussion there.

Yea, seen him in New York a lot. When I'm in my Navy cruiser, he always says "hi blackburn".

Yes....his pirating skills are somewhat lacking. One thing I can't stand is the rule-quoting and ban threats. C'mon now! *shakes head* Also, if he is on the forums....get your rep fixed or it'll be fixed for you. Now, if anyone else has problems with him in the future, post a violation report please.

It's funny really. Whenever someone starts spouting the 'rules' and that they will report you on the forum, ESPECIALLY in system chat, it just proves how little of the forums they have actually read!
