Some names do annoy me somewhat, and are completely out of roleplay. I wouldn't go so far as sanction anyone, just ask them to rename after some time with some roleplay.

I've voted other. As with most of you, names with mass punctuation, random CaPiTaL letters and Pu.Nc.Tu.At.Ti.On annoy me. They're also difficult to work with when using /givecash if pirated as they're so easy to miss type. And, as you go silent whilst frantically trying to get it right, they get wound up thinking your trying not to pay.......

Use that little button for trade.

[quote]1. Pirates like /givecash
The new /givecash command isn't just for transferring credits from your powertrader to your new Bounty Hunter Battlecruiser character. It can be used for transferring credits to ANYONE. This has a number of big advantages.

The first is that transferring credits in this way puts a note of how many credits you transferred, and to whom, in the chat log. If the pirate then kills you, it is much easier to produce screenshot proof that you paid the tax demanded.

The second is that it avoids the pirate becoming suspicious as can happen if you take awhile to enter the correct amount in the trade window. Why do we get suspicious? Because the trade window just happens to obscure your ship from view, and prevent us from shooting at it. Of course you don't have to use /givecash just because of this, but remember that the less nervous a pirate is the more time he or she will wait before destroying you.
