Arcon Telf Gallente Death of Virtue MeatSausage EXPRESS	Posted - 2009.09.16 03:49:00 - [31] Originally by: Spectre3353 I have never dishonored a ransom nor have I ever seen anyone in my corp dishonor a ransom. In addition, I cannot recall having seen any other pirate or pirate corp I know dishonor a ransom anytime in the recent past. I would go as far as to say that 99% of all ransoms I have ever participated in, seen or heard about went off completely legit and without an issue. You people that spread the mis-truth that ransoms are usually not honored in lowsec need to get your heads out of your ass. This. Dishonoring ransoms is bad business. Show me a 'pirate' who prefers KMs to ISK, and I'll show you a poser that won't be around very long.

Xenophanes Colophon	Posted - 2009.09.16 06:17:00 - [33] Originally by: Shawshanke Originally by: Grunanca Originally by: Shawshanke Every time I see or hear the word ransom in this game its some tard bragging about popping someones pod after receiving the ransom. The game mechanics of this game attract some of the lowest of mmo low lifes so rule #1 of being ransomed is to never ever pay a ransom. Yarrr I R inter net pirat Yarr Yarr Yeah just like the game attracts tards who goes to the forums and pretends to know a lot about something he clearly has no clue about, nor has ever himself experienced. Most of the big pirate corps always honor ransoms, and in most the offender will be kicked if he dishonours a ransom. Here are some examples of just some of the alliances I and corps i know works this way: My own, beyond divinity mean coalition the bastards larconian syndicate and many more. Atleast get yur factts right before you start talking stuff from the rear end of your body... Why are you wasting omnipresence on a video game? So your alliance chat and your corp is void of cheating people in this game and to you that means there is no posable way it exist except for the rare instance.... ok.... because of your omnipresence. In "my" experience bouncing around from corp to corp channel to channel with several alts "I" have only seen 1 guy say that he honors ransoms and he was accused of being a carebear pretending to be a pirate because he didn't want to loose his implants. All the rest has been brags about not honoring ransoms followed more people bragging about who they blew up after getting the ransom and the tears that followed. You, my dear friend, are a moron. This is a case of inductive reasoning, not omnipresence. it goes like this: I honor ransoms. The overwhelming majority of people I know and/or have met honor ransoms. I and the people I know and/or have met are pirates. I know or have met a large number of people representing a portion of the pirate population large enough to form a reasonable conclusion. Therefore, the majority of pirates honor ransoms. It's a logical conclusion reached by inductive reasoning. Does it mean it's true everywhere and always? No, ofcourse not. Experiences differ in different places, at different times, and/or with different people. Both your experiences and his may well be able to be backed up with plenty of empirical evidence. So it may be that a better conclusion would be that in his area during the times he is online the evidence suggests that pirates will honor ransoms. So, care to hit us with any other attacks that lack any merit? Please re-size your signature to the maximum allowed of 400 x 120 pixels with a maximum file size of 24000 bytes. Zymurgist
Darek Castigatus Immortalis Inc. Shadow Cartel	Posted - 2009.09.16 14:45:00 - [34] just chiming in that Shadow Cartel will always honour ransoms......if we choose to offer one.

So, care to hit us with any other attacks that lack any merit? OOooo i thought this thread had died, and looky here an invitation to continue. Ok, failure to comprehend sarcasm dose not make one look more intelligent, in fact the effect is just the opposite. And then again we have someone admitting they have a small circle from which to gain one sided knowledge. But since you started the nit picking half the people in this game that call themselves pirates have no clue what a pirate is and sit around calling the real pirates fake. Did you know that by definition pirates have no sovereignty? So all these big nil-sec "pirate" alliances are not pirates at all, its the small groups that operate mostly in low sec that actually are real pirates. Its like someone who commits credit card fraud calling himself a car thief because it sounds cooler and "we both be steel'n stuff so we both the same thing".
Ospie Core Impulse	Posted - 2009.09.17 14:50:00 - [38] Edited by: Ospie on 17/09/2009 14:51:11 I've honoured and dishonoured ransoms. I've personally dishonoured two rorquals and several carriers (double payday remember?). I tend to decide if someone's worth honouring or not, people new to lowsec / the game I tend to honour unless they've been rude to me, in fact alot of newer people who seem good sports about it all I get them to contact me if they've got any questions or want some advice about something. That said if there's an idiot undocking a rorqual from a kickout station with a pirate active in local, or some idiot 2 month old character in a 3b navy apoc missioning in lowsec, or any CVA pet is fair game for the dishonour bat. Dishonouring ransoms makes for some entertaining reading too =D http://docs.google.com/View?id=dcbf8fwv_10cz579zcf Edit: Linky!
