Yew guys be havin' thieves in yer membership, let me tell yas!
About 2130 standard Sirius time, me and mah crew of Junkahs be scrap clearin' in da fields in New London. We be hearin' about a chase involving a Hackar heading towards the Leeds jumphole, but we be payin' no real mind to tha chase, because it don't be involvin' us Junkahs, we're just o' mining the fields for scrap to help out our fellow Junkahs in other systems.
The chase be comin' right by our ship and through tha Leeds jumphole, but we still be payin' no mind to da chase, because it dun involve us Junkahs. But low and behold, as yer ship, "HMS-Mombasa" be comin' by where we be scrap minin', he swings by and tractors all our scrap we been clearin' out o' the field!
Naturally, I be sendin' him a comm over secure channels.
He be sayin' that he dropped tha scrap on da other side of the jumphole in Leeds. Now, I be a fairly understandin' guy. I can understand when ye be hittin' tha wrong button, on yer ship's console. It be happenin' to me all da time. However, I came through da jumphole on de other side and I find no scrap metal thar! Then the slackjaw decided ta tell me maybe I shoulda been stoppin' tha Hackar that came through that thar jumphole in ta Leeds!
That not be any o' my business ya simpleton! I tell him dat, and he be sayin' that scrap metal ain't none o' his business either, yet he interfered in mah scrap minin' business!
Then he goes off about callin' me names and such in the middle of system comms when we Junkahs be cleanin' up yer fields for yew! When yew dun wanna do it yerself! Dat be anyway to be treatin' us? Me thinks not!
I expect some kinda apology from yer command about dis travesty! Dis simply be unacceptable!...and what kinda ship name dat be anyway? I can't even hardly pronounce that dern name!

Mr Hatcher, I saw your field of scrap as I chased the Hacker into Leeds however I did not see the Mombasa tractor any in as I was too engaged.
I do believe you having caught a bit of your conversation before returning to The Hub. However, as Captain Underwood is a member of the Armed Forces It is up to them I believe to sort any conflicts out.
This should culminate in a reimbursement of funds for profit lost and an appology from said Captain.
You are quite right not to involve yourself in a BPA matter and I find it confuzing that the Mombasa accosted you for not assisting.
I will discuss this matter with the Superintendants of Leeds and New London and contact the HMS-Mombasa and inform the captain of his poor actions. The BAF should give him a good dressing down.

No, Azalea, I will not meet with you. It is not of the utmost importance, as it has not come up the ladder. If you feel something is so important, you may send me a missive in triplicate, as is custom, and then I may deign to give you an appointment.
I am a very important man and I have no time for games. Good day.

Ahem. Good day, everyone. I apologize on the actions of my beam module commander. It appears he lost his cool in the chase. We dont see action, very much anymore, Im afraid. Therefore, This little blunder will be taken out of his account... I assure you, I have no reason to want your dirty metal.
So now that yer reputation is on da line ya decide ta pay me for mah lost scrap?
Fine bah me. The amount o' scrap that was taken was more than likelah around 1500, which is about a good 4 million credits worth at our sellin' point. Please deliver tha credits to the "SS.Joyride" IFF.
Thank ye, fer understandin'. Problem's been resolved.
