Seth Quado	Posted - 2003.08.25 23:24:00 - [1] Heh, yes, the 4mil from an Ibis pilot is rather humorous. Myself, I see pirating in a different way. Recently I started a corp with a close friend and well, we're aiming to become pirates. Oh sure, I know some of your are rolling your at that statement, 'ah, not another wanabe'... The thing is, we realize that getting "pked" (if you want to call it that) sucks. With a little bit of (wait for it..) roleplaying, both parties have have an 'interesting' time, or at least, the pirater will have a good time, and the piratee won't throw his monitor out his/her window. Now, tell me if this is realistic. Us, we'd basically hunt around for Industrial ships or cruisers, and maybe even frigates if the oppertunity shows itself, anti-warp them, web them and then trasmit a message. (example) "This is Captain Seth Quado of the Black Pearl Raiders. We have locked on to your ship, cut your engines and prepare to jetison your cargo." Assuming the target jetison's their loot, we unlock and let them go on their way (after picking the loot up first of course ). If they don't have anything in their cargo, well then the "negotiations" start insert Dr.Evil laugh here. And well, at worst if they just don't wana go along with it, well, ...you know, kaBOOM. ...Good times, good times. Anyways, that's my two sense about keeping "greifing" at a lighter degree than just all-out indiscriminate Pking. Lemme know what you guys think. Captain Seth Quado Black Pearl Raiders
