(If you find any mistake in my English, please let me know via a PM)
(Really, I speak terrible English, so please, tell me if I make mistakes. I'd like to improve it a bit )
I write here as Vice-CEO of the GST. Be sure that our team doesn't want to make trouble on the discovery server. If we trade in our enemies territory, it's just because it's more amazing than making money without challenge.
Could you explain your warning advice ? If we well understood it, it's because Firewind didn't talk when he ran away. We didn't notice anything in the rules about this point. And you know, it's hard to flee with a freighter when pirates open fire on you, and write some words at the same time. We can't drive the ship and talk at the same time. If Firewind did it, it was easy for pirates to kill him when he wrote his answer.
And if we complained for all time our enemies didn't say "engaging GST"... Sorry, but we prefer playing than writing complain.
As you know, GST has lots of enemies : no problem, we like that. But we hope they'll try to win against us otherwise by a complaint due to a so small mistake - if we can call it a "mistake".
But be sure we'll try to write a little "no", or "dream on that " or "try it" when ennemies will ask us to stop our engines.
I know this is not my "sanction", but please do expand your advice Korrd.
Currently, as written, this sets a sanctionable precedent about people running away from a pirate.
I really don't think you want to go down that road.
Please clarify the situation so that other people know what you mean.

Sure, to clarify the problem was that the GST ship ran and docked at a GC base while being pirated by a GC player. The idea behind this warning is that the GC base would/should be hostile if one of their members is pirating you and so you shouldn't dock there (even if you can). The running away bit is fine, just not the docking at a nominally hostile base. Make sense?
EDIT: After re-reading the comments, I'll say this in bold:
-traders are allowed to run away without saying anything!
-traders are allowed to run away and say things (not swearing but role-play insults are fine, i.e. you're a son of a corsair)
Proud member of "the most paranoid group of people in the community"
We appreciate your comments about this fact which is now clear for us.
In fact, GST-big-firewind has dock one time on Ainu but he didn't know that these pirates were GC. It seems that no advice was made during the fight.
Anyway, this simple warning now explained close the discussion.

I have personnally laughed when i read these comments and i assure you that we'll try to find some role-play insults to make game much fun !
I'm just coming back from holiday and I would appreciate organizing a nice party on Ainu with our GC friends to forget this unprofitable event. As smugglers, we'll bring the Champagne from Gallia.
Of course Kiretsu are GC! Our dearest "Firewind" Cpt. of course should have known this simply by listening to their voices and seeing their faces on his board instruments. But no big matter. GST's Board will start a new cultural, ethnical, cosmo-strategical information session on all ships to inform all our pilots that the sound of GC's voices is one of the smoothest and most polite in Kusari and... well... ahem... to put it simply:
GC are ALL female. And mostly very pretty when visio-speaking.
Thanks to all pilots for their patience, RP and humor.
See you on Ainu.

GST CEO John Burton (3076-...) is a retired Liberty high rank politician and business man.
His functions in Liberty administration are still not clear today.
He left Liberty administration some years ago and founded the well known Galactic Secure Trade Company in Kusari space with WDR funds.
The GST Company was based in Zoner systems for the following years, until tensions with Liberty authorities because of GST breaking the Texas blockade became to dangerous for Zoners.
Then the GST Security Council decided the Company should switch to Smuggler ID and cut all official contacts with former Zoner Allies.
