This type of thing keeps happening because people in cap ships are bored silly from sitting around with nothing to do. They can't fight fighters in them effectively unless they just happen to get lucky, and they can't really trade in an efficient way because of the cargo hold size (not that it would be good roleplaying to trade in a battlecruiser anyway). The unlawful ones can't pirate in them either. So they sit around waiting for a hint of a fight that they actually can engage in.
Connecticut is available right there from NY. Perhaps people with cap ships should make greater use of it to get the boredom out of their veins. And you lawfuls in NY should not hassle unlawfuls who are honorably heading there in order to do so. Give them an escort to make sure they are indeed going there, sure.
So how about that? Start inviting these independents to Connecticut for some fun and let's stop complaining about each other.
Speaking of which, I would hate to have someone collect a bounty on me after a fight that took place in CT that was for this purpose. Anyone know if that is permissible?
