[1] "Somehow I think that the average Galactic resident will be somewhat put-out to know that after Space Invaders robs them, TTi will stop them from gaining retribution." Won't they already be mildly put out from being robbed? ;) At any rate, TTi isn't going to be defending our ships when we do robberies. ;) Unless of course, we happen to be policing the borders of Venal, but then, that's not pirating, ;) Anyone we rob will have plenty of opportunities to attack us without even needing to venture into venal. And here is a point - suppose I rob someone in 0.0 space. Then I go into empire space with my positive sec rating. Won't the average galactic citizen be put out to realize Concorde will come to my aid if he tries to extract revenge? I hardly think you can blame TTi for something Concorde, the defender of all that is just and holy, is also guilty of. ;) "When we come to buy things from TTi, do we get to take them home or do we just hand them over to Space Invaders on the way out?" As you can probably imagine, we aren't pirating people coming to buy things from the alliance in Venal. They get safe passes, etc. ;) So basically, TTI is no more guilty of consorting with pirates than is Concorde, or any other corporation who sells items on the open market. ;) |

[4] "As to CONCORD - well we know how totally corupt they are - you'd have trouble finding anybody who ISNT already put out by them." Concorde corrupt? Are you sure? I don't see them as corrupt - they do an excellent job of enforcing the rules that govern them. Just because you personally don't agree with the rules established and maintained by the state doesn't mean they are corrupt. ;) Concorde pays us pirates quite well to remove those they view as threats. Morever, they will defend pirates inside their jurisdiction, as long as those pirates only commit crimes far outside concorde jurisdiction. Does this make Concorde corrupt? I don't think so. They only have limited resources, ships, and manpower, so they make what compromises they must in order to keep the areas they are tasked to defend secure. |

[7] (The wonders of windowed mode! :P) At any rate, TTi is not the offical organization formed and paid to protect the galaxy - Concorde is. And Concorde's official rules, to which they adhere religiously ( not a hint of bribery of corruption from Concorde :P), are far more permissive of pirate behaviour than TTi's. In fact, Concorde pays us, which TTi does not. ;) To speak of TTi being 'piratical' is therefore, as ludicrious as speaking of Concorde as being 'piratical'. |
