You obviously have not pirated in the right spots.

I've caught people several times in two hours.
I've... never really pirated. (Traders aren't exactly known for being super responsive)
Smuggled, yes.
Pirated? no. Not really my cup of tea.
And, well, I can't speak for other people being stupid.
Well, what I think about it.
If you demanded trader to leave and not return in this system(or even house again), and he failed to comply in this day.(bigger amounts of time are... stupid, and I won't remember that trader myself), you can demand something rude and get your bluemessage. Demands like drop all cargo and nanobots/insult local authorities in system chat(if they're online)/simply 10 millions work fine enough.

Cute, but I don't think you used the correct word.
There's nothing lolwut-ish about acknowledging that it's ridiculous to think that you can make one piracy demand that is going to remain forever and use that as justification to basically engage another player without any further RP effort.
Quote:Amother weird case of trying out borderline-trolly ways of exploiting the rules.
Exactly!

No, but you've done very well for yourself, haven't you. Please don't come in and sling mud while the grown-ups are talking.

Let me think ...
Molly toward any transport belonging to any Bretonian "crown owned" faction ( Armed force, Police, Bowex , BMM ) Corsair, that could possibly enter Dublin ?
By the way, i still can't believe that the line about considering BMM vessels as combat targets has been removed from the ID.
That doesn't make sense at all, in my opinion.

Oh look, pot calling the kettle black.
Rather, let me elaborate.
When i said stupid, it went together with
Quote:Or your pirate being a real gentleman.
What I was referring to was that, if they didn't want to get pirated, maybe they shouldn't have take the exact same route?
Or is this a contest of who can take things I say in the most personal way?
Unfortunately sarcasm or joking never translates well in text.
Quote:Quoteon't think everyone is the same as you, you uncouth lolwut.
I'm not sure I detect the sarcasm there...and I was originally referring as stupid the idea of a pirate demand lasting forever. I wasn't addressing that towards any individual. So, I'm not trying to make things personal...but comments like the one I quoted seem to take things to another level. Let's keep it on topic and please not turn this into a back-and-forth pissing contest.
Going back as an example: In our New Gaian Front RP, well spell it out VERY CLEARLY that we don't like any miners doing any mining in our presence, nor to we like any transports to be caught by us hauling mined ores and materials. That being said....we STILL make a point to RP with folks and give them the benefit of the doubt before engaging them. We don't just say "BAH!! You have Gold Ore in your hold!! Engaging transport!" *PEW*PEW*PEW*.
