Sick of ooRP traders

[Ayatolah]

They can attack you if you refuse to cut your engines (since RP has been satisfied).

They cannot destroy you for refusing to cut your engines. They need to make a proper demand first.

Surprised you don't know this, given how long you've been here...

Each time i see a different thing... personally i don't take the Cut engines as a demand... if they don't, and they still don't in some tries, i do the fast demand for cargo or credits, whatever, the simple idea of cut engines as a demand, gives them the chance of attempt of sanction due to "i accomplished the demand" which is, almost, mean, and believe me, they tried to do to me

The rules explicitly state that "Halt" does not count as a demand:

6.6 Aggressors are not allowed to destroy a trade vessel prior to issuing a demand and allowing sufficient time to respond. Demands may be cargo, credits or an RP demand, such as leaving the system. "Halt" is not a demand.

This includes any variations of "halt" such as "cut engines," "hold up," "stop," etc.

then i think we were thinking in the same with different words jeje! (remember, english isn't my natural language)


Also, i have just seen the difference in your paragraphs between "attack" an "destroy"

That sounds like the game I play called shoot the SNAC launcher off the pirate bomber

You may be as bold and brash as you wish, but I know your aim is not even nearly that good.

You should elaborate on that opinion, or we shall never make it to the fifth page, sir.

Sick of OORP traders!!!!
Well, Im sick of OORP pirates. The new era of piracy began to the miners stating drop your cargo, or asking rediculas amount like 6-10 mill for the traders.
Its like if you need a lot of money get a bomber and pirate trader.. So easy..

Alivin lockes the opposit threads but he didnt lock this. Looks like he like pirates ...

How is that OORP...pirates are supposed to be bad people. It's actually OORP to limit the amount your asking because you don't want to hurt someones fragile sensibilities.

And no, I don't use my pirates to make any real money....most of the time my demands aren't even for 2 million credits, as I DO realize there is a real person on the other side.

Still, it's hardly oorp for a char playing a bad person to act, oh, i don't know, bad?

Meh.

I think your confusing OORP with being a doosh. They're seperate issues.

It's only easy if you make it easy for them, and they make nowhere near as much money as you do.
