Beware of the light side, young padawan... low sec is rather heavy handed...
True enough.
Which is why the "light side" *cringe* must be at least as heavy handed.

Excellent choice, but be prepared to live by it too. Getting caught and ransomed in low sec is a serious mistake, and I'd say it is completely your own fault that you didn't use one of hundred surefire game mechanics that makes you uncatchable. Don't hate pirates for doing their part in making low sec into what CCP intended it to be. Just fight them instead, it is fun for everyone.
It is not anyone else's fault that you don't know basic low sec procedure. You should never have been surprized to see someone warp in at your belt, because you should have spotted him in local already. You should also not have assumed he wasn't going to kill you, because in low sec anyone can do it if they want to. Piracy IS just business, it is not like the pirate attacked you for who you were, but solely because you exposed yourself to a situation where you were a target. You were strangers to eachother, remember?

I hereby swear that i'll never pay a ransom, i'll rather blow up my ownship or pod. If my ship gets destroyed i'll place a bounty on the pirates head equal to the asked for ransom, if my pod gets killed as well i'll dubble that bounty. You'll never profit from me by trying to ransom me!
Send you 200k for your good deed and realisation! Welcome to the right side
I'll give you 500k to forget what he said.
Sigma,
300k for you if you stop buying off the moral support!

I'm from the US, Florida in fact...and I have never heard that term either.
Perhaps they were thinking of coon?
Coont is a made up word, agreed.

I think you'll find that it wasn't a personal attack in the sense that you weren't singled out because they didn't like you, you were just at the wrong place at the wrong time . It is a business because we make money out of it. Thirdly, wipe your mouth and get on with it.

Do NOT pay any ransom to the retards. Put a -10 on the retards head and its corp and come back later to kill'em. The dark side never wins :)

I can read the subtle undertext of the pirate posts here:
"PLZ don't shoot me back, OMG I might DIE and my pee pee will deflate!!!"
Explosions are so much better than isk, guys.
Don't need a reason to kill, just a target. |

Edited by: Rafar on 12/01/2006 17:37:25 I'm only a month old, but have had my excursions into low sec. And it's ironic to me that someone gets blown up by a pirate and decides he hates pirates.. I've been ransomed once, lost my ship.. My first thought was, 'WOW! When do I get to do that!' Made me fall in love with the pirate career.. Working on getting my eyepatch. First I need more sps, and basic pvp experience, but one day, one day... One day, I'll 'YARRR!' with the best of em...

My first couple of times getting podded were in my first few weeks of play. (Ironically it was one of the members of my current corp) I happened to get bookmarks out to the Vale of the Silent and to some hidden belts, where I was mining lots of high end ore. I'll never forget the thrill of flying back through 0.0 with a bestower full of ark. (or something I don't remember exactly) and being chased by a pirate. I got away from him a couple of times, and he caught me a couple of times. I had no idea what I was doing - at one point I had a jammer on my bestower - but the pure thrill of being chased with the added bonus of possibly losing a cargo that was worth millions (a lot of dough for a new player) got me instantly hooked, and here I am 2 years (and several other mmos later) still playing Eve. I congratulate you on your good attitude. --------------------------------------------------------------

Quote: don't take it so personal, it's business
Why yes, if you don't take it personally, then you won't be inclined to get revenge. Pirates would prefer their victims view them as a natural disaster and all you can do is collect your insurance and rebuild. Heaven forbid someone hunt them down and enjoy the act of payback. Just don't take it too personally.

Its still impossible not to take it personally, even if it wasnt meant to be a personal attack. I would take it personally to lose something I worked hard for for no reason other than the profiteering of another.

Quote: But the pirate says "Don't take it personal, it's only business".
Cergorach has the right attitude.
In the immortal words of Quellcrist Fallconer from Things I Should Have Learned By Now:
Quote: And time and again they cream your liquidation, your displacement, your torture and brutal execution with the ultimate insult that its just business, it's politics, it's the way of the world, it's a tough life and that it's nothing personal. Well, F- them. Make it personal.

to give you some more sympathy..i had the same when i got pirated like 1.7 years ago. they were locking ME and were firing at ME, what did I do wrong? after that i started pvping myself...do like me, start pvping too ^^
probably the best advice you ever get. btw that pirate was a good guy, i can tell you that for sure. he spared your life after you engaged him again and he does beltpiracy in a inty which i find the most tough, but coolest way of pirating.
dont forget its not personal because he will do it to someone else too, bookmark this post and read it after you played the game for 6 months. you will laugh @ your noobyness while seeing another nice explosion which you got addicted too.
p.s: bounty are the pirates proud increase them and they'll love you for it. _________________________________________________
