I think they are trying to make it abundantly clear that if you make it too hard to find by not putting it in the rules, people aren't going to see it. If its a rule, it needs added to the rules thread. If its not, thats just asking for it to be broken. And in this case, ignorance could be an excuse as it never says anywhere that KILLING a trader is against the rules. Only pirating. They can't follow a rule if its so hidden in the 50,000+ posts of the forums to make finding it difficult, let alone knowing they need to find it in the first place.

It was already clear. I've said the same thing myself in a quite more polite way at the beginning of this thread. No need to repeat it 100 times more unless you think that all the people are a buch of brainless beings (apart from the two that, like 2-years old childs, continuosly repeat the mantra "it is not in the server rules thread... it is not in the server rules thread... it is not in the server rules thread")!!! Came on!

(probably a dumb question, but oh well...) The "no pirating in capships" means no pirating real people, right? Using a cruiser to blow cargo pods off NPC trains is fine?

Yap. It's not against the rules. Rules are designed to protect the fun of both corsairs and traders. But if real people are not involved, no harm to others' fun.

We should form a 'NPCs rights movement'... what don't they endure from us...
If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor
Seriously... NPCs are the unspoken victims here. Night, you and i need to start a group to address this horrible situation.
I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.

"this can't go on. people just wont care about it"
"we discussed this over and over, we should make it official"
"we already said we should do so x times"
"we will do so, but that doesn't change the fact that this applies"
"well i can't do anything about that so make it official already and the problem is solved"
"we already said that x+1 times"
"just saying, don't blame me if we should do so"
"that's x+2 now"
"i agree with you, so why are you getting mad at me?"
"i'm not mad at you, but we said it x+2 times"
"yep, you said that a number of times"
"dont spam"
"+1 and you're off topic too"
"well, i think we should do so"
"WE GOT THAT ALREADY"
"they probably just don't think you reaaaaaally got it"
"gah"
"or we could just be trying to annoy you"
"graaaagh"
"braaaaainssssss!"
I see where this is going.
Sorry for that, not really on topic, since it wasn't all said before.
Can someone please post the penguins?
