He is one of few guys that plays completly for the fun and do lulzy things. Everyone (hopefully) who is in IC| knows that my "insults" are nothing but ice breakers. This combination makes perfectly harmless mock on him for being foolish enough to be seen with illegal commodity.
At any point, IC| is faction that belongs to members. As leader, I am not leading it. I just get to call everyone noobs without punishment from iron-hand leader.
Also, I wouldn't like you as my leader too. I don't like you at all. Most of the times. So I guess we are even.
I traded with slaves because the RP behind them is that since they come from Sugarland, they're Rheinland POWs who are given to the GMG to mine Plutonium, which then goes to help the Liberty war effort. I simply twisted that story a bit because I knew the KSP wouldn't like me saying I was helping out the GMG in any way.
Snak3's right, I do things independently, and on my own. I can't be bothered to read through the basically constant spam of things not related to FL in the IC| chat, and if I see other IC| on and I'm not doing something else, like rogging or in a fight, I'll go join them.
I never see them on. So I trade by myself.
I literally know only four trade routes in all of Disco. One of them is Alloys and MVs in Texas and Ontario. That gets really boring and isn't too profitable. The other two are slave runs, one to Freital, and BDs back, the other to Malta, and cardamine back. Those last two start at Niverton, and are rogue runs.
The only other one that I know, I found out when I joined the GMG|, which I don't have a trading ship in. That's "prisoners" from Sugarland off to Isehara, and take plutonium back to somewhere in Liberty.
And then today Twisp told me a better one, plutonium from Isehara to Dortmund, and terraforming gases back. I was in Texas, so I figured I'd take "Rheinland POWs" from Sugarland off to Solarius or Nuremburg, but apparently two RM bomber indies thought I was BS'ing.
I figured nobody ever plays in Kusari, so it's safe to try and take them up to Isehara, after I got a loan of five mil from Twisp (since I ran out of money trying to buy those 5k slaves). Nope, I get a KSP gunboat telling me "five seconds to drop those people which I magically know are slaves or I'll kill you." So now I'm broke, and all because I wanted a little change in scenery. I can see why nobody ever RPs in Kusari. So bra-vo to the [KSP] and the RM indies for legally pirating me.
Maybe I shouldn't have done that on my IC|, but it's one of only two transports that I own currently, and I figured, "hell, my character's oblivious and rich, that whole POW story's something he'd believe." Sorry for trying to RP, everyone. I can see that Disco is absolutely no fun allowed, AND no making money allowed either. I'll just pirate every trader I see in California on my Barghest now for five mil and kill them afterwards, since I don't give a **** how much money they make or not, and I'm just as happy seeing a pretty explosion as I am with seeing some more 0s.

I dont think you need to give ooc justification for your in-rp actions. The only people here who seem to be upset about what you did is the IC.

You're probably right. Once again, Zelot, I thank you for being a voice of reason and reminding me that I really, REALLY need to control my temper. My post was a perfect example of that, but I'll leave it up so that everyone can see my idiocy for all time.:$
Not to be ragging on my own faction here, but if someone would actually try and teach me lawful trade routes, I'd gladly do those instead. I might be as allergic to powertrading as Jameson and Panzer are to indies, but when I literally have about 5m left across maybe two dozen ships, I think I'll try and deal with it.

That's all, folks.
If none of the guys in your faction are willing to help you out with it, ring me up when I get back in the county in a couple of weeks, and you can do some ride -alongs with me. I can show you a few routes.

Some people try to nail our entire faction to a wall for what individual members do, so we get a little defensive.
Sorry Kai.
And you don't know any trade routes?
Honestly, we had no idea.
That shall be fixed.
gone four years, first day back: Zoners still getting shot in Theta :|

Everybody does that to basically everyone else, from what I've seen. It's why I only joined IC| for powertrading and the cool transmission bar.:lol:(Which has not been made yet, and I'm scared to do any reports without the ability to look snazzy like everyone else.)

Thats what I like to hear.
As to the part about individual members, I get it, I have the GMG going to war with Kusari over 3 shipments over 15 months and the CR trying to crucify IND for one single incident that happened over a month ago.

But, that said, live by the RP die by the RP.
Well, IND's hardly worse off than neutral with the Outcasts, and war's good for the economy. The only activity I see in Kusari is either the GMG, KNF and KSP trying to shoot the GMG, or Hogosha powerpirates who usually don't speak English. The GMG war is a good thing, imo.
