to the OC guys: Seriously, facts: Cross engaged GMG at Naha.
There is nothing wrong with the engagement, neither with the rp.
So, please, if you engage, do not complain that you get shot at.
GMG and VWA were having a verbal discussion about the Bounty Hunter Kitty.Velasquez.
Then |+| comes in and orders OC to attack.

As I said: I don't have a problem with that, but pointing at "oorp alliances" and "ID violations" and complaining about gank and about general unfairness seems a little far-fetched if it was you who initiated a fight. Not my mistake the OC brought only 2 VHF and 2 bombers against the initial 3 VHF group. What the RM did, I cannot influence. We were not grouped, nor did we communicate/coordinate. But RM is well inside his irp/oorp rights to shoot stuff in S13. So no ID problem there either.
I know that feeling very good. It's that taste of Disco, whenever you try to do something that needs some fair-play.
Corsairs will always attack traditional enemy first. Both of them are mentioned on our ID. We play simple-is-better. And we said that we will attack - on time and in system chat. And what average Disco player did? He supported the stronger side. It was us, as we had more ships than others.
Kudos to all brave pilots that get organised later and helped weaker side. Too late for OC, but I hope next time will be better.
Aren't miners and traders excluded from 2h engagement rule (if they got destroyed) by default...? Just asking, because there was a bit of uncleariness regarding that rule.
Also, um... Isn't announcing such a event before deadline is in 15 minutes a bit too short?
"Freighters and transports in this case may return to the system for the sole purpose of trading."
It means that they can get back into the system they died in before the 2h runs out. All other aspects of PvP death still apply to you.
So even as trader, you can still not initiate an engagement in the particular system you died in and/or against the player that killed you.
