You were allowed to go after a routine inspection without even a demand but you chose to stay and ''talk smart''.
Being rude to multiple grouped ships in-RP isn't really the smartest thing to do, you know? You were also given the opportunity to rectify that by providing an apology and a humble 1m, which is nothing credit-wise.
You chose not to comply. On top of that, you were warned multiple times to stop. You chose not to.
Maybe, next time don't play smart in-RP to an entire battle group and when provided with instructions - follow them.
You had every opportunity to resolve this peacefully. In fact, we weren't even after you and you were allowed to go on your way. Actions have consequences (who would have thought).
Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.
I am not mad that I got shot. I knew well that you weren't going to kill me with those ships, so to see you try was actually quite amusing. My problem is that once you saw a suspicious Freelancer in an extremely expensive ship and flashy equipment (Obsidian, Jintsuriki, Cheetah, flashy lights) in one of your backwater systems, instead of trying to direct a conversation into something more interesting, you pursued the blandest line of role play possible: the "what's a freelancer doing here", the unnecessary exposition of a cargo scan, the edgy talking around the subject of Nomads (which makes no sense as Corsairs should be intimately aware of their existence), taking personally my pointing out that your talk made no sense, a "you upset me now pay money." Up to that point you had your opportunity to salvage it, though. Challenge to a duel, perhaps, maybe even just dropping both the bombers. Honestly anything that wasn't ganking me with your two Murmillos and a gunboat. It's not just that the encounter was bad, it was that it was bad every step of the way, and every step of the way you could have salvaged it but you opted for the worst and most uninteresting course of action becoming of maybe a bunch of lolwut Liberty Navy indies, but definitely not of a faction attempting to become official.
of the very few encounters i had, i have nothing bad to say, by the contrary, some good stuff. one encounter i even wasn't pay attention and didn't see, only few minutes later saw on the list that something was said, and were a very good and friendly words even for a trader. it is good to see one unlawfull faction not bewaving like common rats, a very rare thing on this server, and folloing what it written in their story.
Encounters I had with them were on neutral/allied ships and I think all were in Gallia so I can't really judge them for combat but RP.
They are doing friendly, although sometimes not deeply immersive (not like this community is overall hard RP one), but still pleasant RP. Unlike another Corsair player faction that was coming to Gallia and I had to deal with, DTR guys didn't run to the nearest dock point as soon as I mentioned that I check if they have a license for goods they brought, what started, I believe, mutually beneficial and enjoyable relations between DTR and Gallic lawful playerbases.
Hope you will not burn out and stay around for long

I don't see why the equipment mounted on a ship should denote a character as being important, their attitude aside, if that's all there is to attempt singling them out as important then they honestly just aren't important whatsoever. This may not be what you want, but it is a fair reaction considering not everyone in the world is impressed or influenced by what a person possesses as opposed to how a person behaves. You might want to let that sink in.
We want to officially thank you on behalf of The Core and Allies for [19:00] Fighter PvP Event | DTR Corsairs & Allies vs Core & Allies | Amorgos Assault. We appreciate you "share" on your vast activity with smaller factions, have put in all the work organizing it and even coordinated the roleplay and ideas with your enemies - us - giving us opportunity for roleplay and activity, even opened the event to "lose" in roleplay.
Great cooperation, lots of work from your side for the benefit of others - you will be a model official faction people can look up to, and we'd love to work with you again.
