Think about it, the extortion has more value than killing the base, I'd much rather extort the base for years than have it say no and have to blow it up (with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 bases during my time playing). This also addresses your reply to my comment on nassau, I could go tax it now yes. But coordinating a siege of that magnitude would take time and effort I can't be bothered to give right now.
You did three tax threads. I guess one more wouldn't be a problem? I use a qoute from you "which believe me i could". And i know the extortion has more value because one have almost nothing to do for the money. Easy profits.

Well. A little fleet inRP yes. Maybe. But you show up with 10 or 15+ Jorms to destroy a base at a Capital Planet. Or is your intention to siege that base with less than 10 Jorms? Because just because you can pop up in New Berlin with 15+ jorms doesn't mean it is justified in RP.

We do RP with traders, I spread propaganda as much as I spread piracy, even when I do pirate I have a few lines I drop after I extort the person for propaganda purposes.
Are we still talking about POB sieges at Capital Planet's? Because it looks like we don't. So can you give me examples of an official faction doing a POB siege at other Capital Planet's? Other than Zayne's RHA example? Because right i only see the RHA is doing "stunts" like this. I only remember the thing at Planet Manhattan weeks ago. With Long Island or whatever the POB's name there is. Wasn't an official faction though?

PoB sieges bring out the colorful side in everyone, people play ruthlessly and it wont change with the current game mechanics. ]bd[ might have been glowing angels with fairplay but I have seen BD| mass hordes of togos for sieges in kepler and other systems. Same goes for the Order, Core, GRN, etc.
You don't need to hate anything. I know how broken the whole POB concept still is. And don't get me wrong here. I don't mind POB's getting destroyed. But it's simple. If you don't have the numbers inRP you are not able to destroy a POB. I wouldn't go to Planet Manhattan with a Rogues fleet to siege a POB just because i have the numbers ooRP. Or with the Corsairs to Planet Malta. Even with the numbers the GRN has inRP i would hate it when they start to siege the bases at Planet New London. But maybe that's just me.
And i didn't say anything about the ]bd[ being glowing angels. Again. I don't have problems with the RHA attacking POB's in Border systems like Omega 7. The time to respond for the Military to defend a base outthere would be long enough for the a fleet to hit and maybe destroy a base inRP i guess. Or for the KNF/LN to bring stuff to Kepler to defend a lawful base against a Togo fleet there. Not that a huge Togo fleet makes any sense at all. I am still talking about a siege at Planet New Berlin.
