yeah but ID's are the important control piece for the way this server works. It's a PvP game that is enforced with a blanket of RP. Meaning all our attacks have to be RP based and following the guidelines set out by faction lore and diplomacy. The ID's are the tool that facilitates the management of the PvP oriented aspect of the game to coincide with our RP blanket. It's the game mechanic that allows playability and provides the standpoint in determining if the hostility or alliance is justified in RP or not.
As for Baltar, yeah I am aware of the RP you have of your char as well as others out there. I don't actively hunt "benign" pirates, in those cases it would take an active attempt that I witness or someone under my command witnesses. It hasn't happened in your char's case with GMG and to my knowledge yours isn't hunted (busy with hispanics usually)
