We've been watching how people treat/act in regards the Pirate ID. Sadly, we've seen Players using the pirate ID to act more as a terrorist than a pirate. They place demands on navies/police knowing full well that these will never be met, basically just as an excuse to pvp without violating the ID. Looks like we need to change it up a little bit, due to the aforementioned abuse with the ID. You naughty community you...
Henceforth, the Pirate ID as seen here:
Quote:* - Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect a ship of the same affiliation.
* - Can demand cargo and credits from any ship, and attack them if they do not comply.
* - Cannot use any transports with more than 3,600 cargo, except for the Pirate Train.
Will now read like this:
Quote:* - Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect a ship of the same affiliation.
* - Can demand cargo and credits from Transports, Liners, and Freighter class vessels, and attack them if they do not comply.
* - Cannot use any transports with more than 3,600 cargo, except for the Pirate Train.
Happy hunting those Transports, Liners, and Freighters! Don't worry LPI, you're safe from being pirated of your Donuts...
hello there , might I suggest this to other unlawful/piratey IDs like hessian/ molly etc. because I've witnessed not just indie pirates making silly demands to just pvp, some examples I and my friends have witnessed and been the target of, things
like 30 million from an empty spatial or 12000 credits to a nephilim, as a once regular player [ like almost all day every day lol ] I got to
see and survive many dark things while playing, because the way I see it its
extremely unrealistic/oorp for a pirate/unlawful fighter/small craft to demand a silly sum from a capital ship or tiny fighter
so they could just pvp, this also occurred quite often in one sided encounters where the victim has absolutely no chance at all
which some of the encounters i've witnessed have been exactly that
