Yeah.

But again, these aren’t pirates. I am carrying nothing of value or any bounties on my head. I can understand it being a PP kind of opposition, it wasnt that.

It’s more of a “hey look at the low lvl ship!” “I can blow it out of the sky in a split second!” I’m so great!” kind of thing...


If that's the case, then it's call terrorism.

one man's terrorist is another man's 's freedom fighter?

In any case, i would considert that ganking for myself, if it was for me i would bring down hull to 1%, make sure the cargo-hatch mis-functions, make sure they loose cargo and make them pledge to Archon.

...if they are that good, then they can accomplish something like that as wel!

Cool story bro.

But that still doesnt answer the question, where are the real bounty hunters that won’t scoff at 100,000,000 credits because they aren’t a fat-cat already?

There is a REAL problem in Ebor system, no matter how you slice it and I cannot afford another rebuy ATM, so it’s “solo” for now... Sadly.






Wait!

You want to issue a bounty of 100 Millio and can't really afford another rebuy?

and are you referring  to players who do the opposing part of the Community goal? Aren't they doing what they are supposed to do?





Uh, I thought it would be common knowledge that I am talking about a criminal here with a bounty set by the federation. You would of course need to be a bounty hunter and probably have a warrant scanner to unlock even more credits from such quarry, as I’m sure they have bounties in other systems as well!




Kari Kerenski
AutomaticAddict100,000,000 plus bounty





How exactly would you pay this?







hmm, then i misread your post, i thought you were prepared to pay that, by donating metal or so ----(10.000 tons?)

but it still has nothing to do with ganking, he's just fullfilling his role as a pirate, upsetting the world orders !

I mean you do encounter NPC-pirates who have higher combat-rankings?



Yeah.

But again, these aren’t pirates. I am carrying nothing of value or any bounties on my head. I can understand it being a PP kind of opposition, it wasnt that. Even NPC pirates scan you for valuables and leave you alone if it’s not worth their time.

It’s more of a “hey look at the low lvl ship!” “I can blow it out of the sky in a split second!” I’m so great!” kind of thing... And you don’t see the same offenders just randomly attacking NPCs either, so it IS directed at players. Perceived weaker players, it’s a “cowards game” at best.

Hence “Griefing”.


If you think I only go after "soft" targets then you haven't browsed my clip library.

AutomaticAddictSounds about right.


Wait, the bounties are with the Federation? Psh, they're getting what they deserve in that case.

Phisto SobaniiAutomatic, you need to chill out right now.


It’s hard to express syntax online. I’m not upset, I just thought this was the right place to come as a citizen of the federation and make it known there is potential money to be made in Ebor. That and the added pressure of bounty hunters in the system would help me to make some damn cash by participating with other commanders to get this CG done with a decent standing for a much needed payout.

Even the guys that wasted me have a place I guess, but where is the yin to that yang!?

Why are you guys removing comments? To protect someone’s messed up false sense of pride? I didn’t think what I said was that off.

A terrorist that targets players for no other reason than to spread dismay, the loss of players online, unjustified loss of credits and general chaos is an honorable profession? What a messed up galaxy man...

you came to a very diverse place, where there are a lot of pro and anti-federation, with very different views....but that's the great thing about this game....you need to find your way in it...you got traders and pirates, federation vs empire , and then the BGS....so apreciate the level of  intricacies ....

the yang? Only you can answer that....but paradoxixally, because all the different competing visions, you can find your individual answer....it's through that melange that you can find your answer instead of a unified, or directed solution...

I have removed one post to keep the discussion within reasonable boundaries. I knew why I have posted that warning about keeping stuff on a general level earlier.

17 Jul 2018, 11:34pm
Comments are being removed because they are probably not constructive to the conversation.

That's what terrorist do.

Terrorism is, in the broadest sense, the use of intentionally indiscriminate violence as a means to create terror among masses of people; or fear to achieve a financial, political, religious or ideological aim.

Well, for what it’s worth. It was nice meeting you all.

A diverse community is right huh? Good thing space is big.

^ Trying to make light of the situation. Lol

Terror as in political means, that means even Kings and Emperors and Presidents fall under that.......so you will find it in any level....not only players...
