If your reading their MD, and act differently knowing the ship hovering about is a spy, then thats metagaming.

Do you like battleship?
How do i get rich?
Is trade best money?
None of these are questions that a "Silly Civillian" would rock up to a large, hostile, non-Gallic ship and ask.
Ah, yeah, well, thats retarded. Acting like an oorp lolwhut just kinda killed the highground that Veygaar had.
In any case, man, ask yourself this...
Who cares?
So Brigands knows your dealing with royals. not like they couldnt have found out had you been stopped by a Brigand ship in languedoc. Nothing has really changed, as OSI, do the Zoner thing, and start dealing to the Brigands too. Theyll ask you to stop dealing royals, and go ahead and tell them youll stop. then be careful about getting caught next time.
Stop whining. Your not a victim. RP Happens. Sometimes its adversarial.
Let's go and read every single inRP post that happens! Won't that be a fun idea!
No I do not have that much time contrary to what everyone in OSI believes. I spend all of my time trading.
I did not even have a single shred of interest in any of those channels until after this happened.
AT THE POINT WHERE THE EVENT HAD ALREADY HAPPENED!
I went through their channels checking to see if anything had been posted about this indicating it was good RP
Seriously, check their message dump. Even on internal communications this was a hush hush job apparently. Not a single damn thing there! WOW! They keep some serious secrets don't they! So secret that they can just say Oh well sorry. There is RP but you are not allowed to see it because you might metagame to avoid my metagame!
Look, man, i can understand your frustration. You feel you got cheated, and treated unfairly, by someone who has no interest in your continuing gaming experience.
Truth being, thats not the case at all. You werent oorp targeted to ruin your fun - you just came against some plotting against your faction, and had the crap luck to be the guy caught in the trap.
honestly, in your case, preparing against possibly being caught wouldve been metagaming, so the outcome is pretty much already determined. Best thing to do is act like it didnt happen, and trust your faction leaders to make policy.
