' Wrote:I was wondering what was up. WHY, exactly, y'all decided to conduct a raid. If it was just a random "'cos we feel like raiding 23" thing, then that's called a lolraid. Going "It's even" doesn't explain it.
Oh, gotcha. I thought the worry was about ganking. The occasional larger pirating raid doesn't seem that far-fetched (they hit a few miners first, as I understand), and it seems to have been prudent to take a larger force this time, given the even numbers. I'll ask more detailed questions when they get back from their furball. Lolraiding would be bad, yes, but I'll reserve judgment on their motives until I've had a chance to ask them about it.
