Cartel you've got some explaining to do.

[MB52]

Alright, first of all, let me just say how pissed I am at what you folks have been up to. Your actions have been the direct cause of many LPI recruits and seasoned officers leaving due to frustrations.

You guys seem to think its ok to gank LPI liberators in your missile boats, but its not. Have you ever stepped back and thought about what your turning this game into for the person receiving these missiles? No did not think so. You are just a group of PVP whores out to get your jollies off killing defenseless targets.

Also, please don't deny this, we've all seen the PMs where you state something along the lines of needing to use two gunboats loaded with missiles to take down a single liberator.

I'm not asking you stop operating in Liberty... actually I think you should, but at least tone down the ganking for one second. Lets try and make things fun for everyone involved.... a lone fighter approaches you... don't throw your gunboats at it, get a fighter, be fair.

So grow up, and let us all enjoy playing on this server.

Virus had a good message the other day, he chose a poor method of conveying it but, regardless we should all try to understand this.

This is not a PVP server, its a RP server. PVP comes secondary, and your RPless missile boats have no place here.

I expect an explanation here for the community, and demand an apology to those you've forced to quit because of your actions.

Admins, this is last resort, as apparently PMs don't work with these guys.

I think they haven't done such a bad thing. They're pirates. They do pirate things like hanging in gangs and killing people. It adds some life to the server. I got killed and I'm not going to quite the game because of this.

We can't help it if some people are sore losers.

Cartel are hanging in gangs and owning you because you're patrolling alone? Team up with some other navy and police and everything should be alright.

I'm going to spare you the full tongue-lashing that I would normally give to a seasoned member and just say this:

That is -not- being a good pirate. A good pirate will steal from one trader and run to another location, where he will repeat the performance. He will flee at the slightest hint of a lawful ship, with as much loot as he can carry. When was the last time you read about a (Somalian) pirate sailing a battleship, sinking tankers and then sallying forth to attack the U.S. Atlantic Fleet?

I'll answer that rhetorical question: Never. Ever. EVER. E-V-E-R. Got that?

Back to Freelancer.

When was it ever remotely fun, acceptable, or--God forbid!--RP to shoot down a PATRIOT with no less than two gunboats mounting three missiles+ each?

Have you ever BEEN the Patriot/Liberator? Have you never seen the other side? I didn't think so. Try it. You'll be pissed too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Same goes for the Cartel. Either shape up, or ship out. I don't like people abusing their power like that, and I play a lot of factions. If I catch wind of you doing that in Outcast Gunships, there's going to be some flying fur and metal as the Dons lay into you lot.

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.

[Walker]

I've become rather impatient so...

How bout this - To the obnoxious Cartel...

STOP GANKING THE DAMN LPI WITH YOUR MISSILE BOATS!

And I won't have a LN Dread or three log on to hunt you down and see how you feel about it.

There you have it, if you consider that being a good pirate, then I shall consider that being a good lawful, swifting pacifying any piracy or terrorism with overkill so we wont have casualties on our part... And you can enjoy the fact that you just screwed yourselves for trying to justify wrong and make it synonymous with what is right - Do you want to be chased by two Dreadnoughts sniping you with BattleRazor's and a volley of turrets that can take a quarter of your HP down in a single volley?

Three missiles+ each?

You should be thankful they are mounting so many missiles on their ships, considering that even with the large GB power plant you can just barely fire dual missiles, any more and its just a waste.

[Guest]

And I had such a lovely talk with one of the Cartel folk 8 hours ago, explaining to shape up and to change their ways and it did seem like progress.



So I guess the only sane person in that group is the 2IC but ah well.

I was just in cali engaged with another gunboat The cartel were they did not engage matter afact they ate popcorn.... i ended up killing like 9 bombers that jumped in on my gunboat and it took me away from the fight but the cartel didn't fire a single shot for the sake of gank even if it was just 1 gunboat and 10 outcast around him. Funny thing is me and him were only 2 left we decided to call it a night gunboat battles take to long..

Seeing has how my setup is Turret Razor Pulse Razor Turret Missle Missle and i think another turret ? or 2 ? going with this generic build any how.

5 cartel were there and only 1 of them were gunboats and it had 1 missle ? thought u needed 2 to missle whore ? idk just my 2 cents.

First: You've got a picture in there that's 800x286 pixels. The maximum signature size is 700x250.
Second: Your other picture in the rotation fills the full 700x250 boundaries by itself.
With an image that big, you can't fit any text below it. Please fix this.

wow, even as an LPI Officer myself I still feel as though ya'll are complaining too much.

Personally, I don't mind what they do, the only problem is that they groupwhore. Theres always 3 of you, no less. And thats really annoying. And you gyus act more like terrorists then you do as pirates. Just like to point that out too.

Either way, I do agree that attacking patriots (not liberators) is not good or fun, you ruin it for a lot of us. I would know, coz I'v been subject to an attack by you guys in my early LPI days.

[Dusty Lens]

I'll leave my personal sentiments out of this.

However, this thread is severely pushing the boundaries of a trial by forum. I'm not going to shut it down at this particular moment, but if it continues along a path of spittin and cussin you can be sure that I'll slam the gates.

i avoid Liberty like the plague, but I had to pass trough it tonight, guess what , the zoo is now a complete jungle. In an Arrow I got 3 time the line: "TAX" in capitals like in a pvp server 5 years ago, the third time was by A BLOODY CAP SHIP. And allways followed by the pew pew 2 secs after. I survived all encounters, but getting taxed on a fighter ? seriously? One of those encounters, the third one, was with those ... Cartel gentlemen.

Now can we get this server back to a rp one? Please?

You DON'T tax freelancer fighters , you are a pirate if you must ask credits, which I think should be forbiden, then ask TRADERS, ok?
