"blimey, the personell on freeport 4 must think i am a loony for sending pointless messages to their terminal. well, whatever. mind, i don t think it needs much comment anyway. if any pirate charges me more than my ship is worth, and 8 times what my profit is worth he will get nothing at all. by the time, you may have noticed that it might have been more profitable to accept my offer to receive a donation instead of insisting on such an outragous fee.
it is interesting how you define "a target of opportunity" as ... well, the opportunity wasn t really ... opportune. you went through quite some troubles, just to loose me after a long time. flying a wing of fighters after a freigher.
but tell you that one. after yesterdays experience, i must say, you at least worked for your money, that wouldn t come. i was flying through dublin; and some molly asked me to "halt". mind you, he wasn t even on long range scanners. - i halted. ... after an embarrassed pause, he asked... "mind giving me your coordinates?" - that made me laugh and i engaged cruise and left dublin after flying across the whole system to gran canaria.
such actions make me think that pirates these days simply don t deserve to be payed anymore. so far, we have two hackers that ask for money that simply cannot be payed or how do you expect a dromedrary to pay up one million? - and we have mollies that try to pirate me from well over 60.000 clicks away ( it turned out he was idling at arrenmoore )
so from my point of view, you guys are allways welcome to receive a little donation, as you are certainly hard working men and women; but be asured that you won t find a single trader that would pay more than 50% of his profits. - maybe you guys become to fat in your comfy cockpits and think that each trader earns a fortune. - but let me tell you again that my profit from this run was exactly 159.000 credits - and i would have loved to part 70.000 with you. come to think of it, 70.000 credits is enough to feed an average family on manhatten for allmost a year.
so, my dear hackers, or should i say, my dear witch, - don t become as decadent as the average manhatten high society. charge me 1 million credits again, and you will again receive nothing. oh, and when i pay up, - i am expecting something in return. there is no taking without giving. we zoners are not doing charity runs here.
allright, now i advice you to take some target practice. it was too easy to escape and evade you.
Elizabeth "Jinx" Tate out, and have a nice day
postscript: consider me an easy target of opportunity again and its time for a bit of bad luck."
