You wouldn't see a bank robber going to a police officer and starting a fire-fight just because. It makes no sense, right? Right.
Yeah, but remember he doesn't have the tech to take on a couple of the lone house forces (as yourself, Haste, Tal and Moriarty have pointed out) and therefore it should be against the rules for them to do so.
I don't see how pirating law enforcement (or for that matter any corps paramilitary) equates to 'starting a fire-fight just because'. After all that ship has so much better tech, why not rob some of it? Or maybe INRP the ship is at a disadvantage because it is running out of fuel or it's weapon/shield systems arr offline or it has just been in a fight and is heavily damaged.
The point I made when I said that is that these things can easily occur INRP and by removing the ability from the pirate ID to pirate these ships it limits the RP that is available to someone flying with that ID (not that you should be able to do anything you want with an ID, but pirating with a pirate ID should pretty much be a given) which goes against the idea of having a RP server that promotes RP and creativity.
