A poor answer to read, Moriarty. Not only the lane hackers seem to have lost track of their noble cause - now it turns out, that even the head of this rottened bunch him self has lost track of his subordinates' activities!
You may have understood the deployment of the Endeavor as an initial action since you lack input of your fellow hackers. But in fact, it was nothing more but a reaction to constant violation of Freeport rules which we tried to enforce to maintain independence. Further more, I am not surprised about the frequent violations from your criminals since even you, their leader, don't seem to understand the principle of those rules. So let me tell you into a secret: It doesn't matter what floats around in the range of a Freeport. If its a Corsair Titan, an Outcast destroyer or a bloody Battle Cruiser of the owner of the station.
Indeed, even to me, the report of the said captain of that Battle Cruiser looked quite carried away. But after understanding the essence (you allying with terrorists against us because of senseless blood thirst) and combining that with your freshly displayed thoughts about those who fed you for such a long time being aggressors, do make me believe that he isn't the only person around here that can be suspected to have mental problems.

So lets get to the bottom line, Moriarty. If you want to continue further engagements against the Independent Miners Guild's bases and ships, thats OK for me. Because then, we wont just stop supplying the Freeport with vital commodities you need, but we will even stop running it as a Freeport. A common mining base form next door suits the new scenario better. Since the nearby criminals don't see a reason to respect the Freeport's rules, We don't see one for the lawfuls of Bretonia or Liberty to respect it either.

Interesting ... the most astonishing fact of all these eventual consequences, of these ... changes to that guilds base is, that the High council put the decision itself into your hands to decide. After reading your ... "response", it doesn't really reflect my personal opinion anymore - but that isn't of a relevance right here.
So, like it or not, your next answer will contain this decision. So choose your words wisely. Because god knows, you really should.


disrespectful,
Artur von Seelenburg


PS: I learned that gunfire only tends to impress coward Criminals. I also learned however, that hunger impresses them ALL.
