2006.08.13 @ 00:13 I deposited 5 million isk into Awox's account for ransom for a day being left alone to mine / rat in Ennur by his corp (if it was just a personal ransom, i would have deposited 1 million isk)

Victim: Feng Schui Alliance: None Corp: Republic Military School Destroyed: Scythe System: Ennur Security: 0.1
Involved parties:
Name: ZuN3 (laid the final blow) Security: -10.0 Alliance: Black Flag Alliance Corp: Fortunis Novum Ship: Vagabond Weapon: 220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II
Name: William Hart Security: -9.9 Alliance: None Corp: Awox Inc. Ship: Claw Weapon: Claw
I don't know about anyone else, but a day is 24 hours. Not 19 hours. DO NOT give this corp ransom, as they will not honor it. I quote Awox, when I put the kill mail into local chat, "so?"
Awox then decided he should pay me back 1/2 of the ransom (2.5 million isk) for the "miscommunication". To the hades with that! I don't want 2.5 million isk, I want 3 corpses in my hanger. Guess which ones? It doesn't matter how long it takes me; the last person I wanted revenge on, took me four years playing the MMO to finally get ahold of him again, and I massacred him.
Congratulations Awox Inc. You'll be getting retribution. It may not be today, tomorrow, in a month, or in a year.. but it will happen. And unlike your corp, I honor my word.

I know Awox personally and I can vouch for him as someone who honors ransoms. I doubt he was counting the 24 hours, also noting that he lives in Australia might help. ===============================================

It's been a while since i've had a basic geography class, but if memory serves me right time goes the same speed in Australia as it does in Brazil. That's a weak excuse, and if he paid for a day he should get a day. Shaving even 20 minutes off if it should count as dishonoring his ransom.

Won't even bother explaining tbh, I sense this thread is about to be mobbed by carebears who love to hear only the "victims" side of the story. ===============================================

When you post a killmail into local it shows up as the example shows below. Since it won't fit into local chat its shortened and thus he can't see his corpmate on it.

And thus the ransom was not honored. Personally if something like this "miscommunication" happened I wouldn't hesitate to pay back several fold the ransom and help replace the ship.
Honoring your ransom is everything.

Hmm, maybe he transfered it to the corp CEO?
Assuming what the OP says is actually true then Awox isn't honoring ransoms. We'll have to wait on a comment.

I just know that a lot of dishonouring of ransoms and lowsec ganking goes on, that's all. And i'm merely playing the devils advocate here and siding with the "random newb" rather than flame the guy to hell and back again when in all probability he's telling the truth.

Well even better, means he paid the CEO for the ransom. Really, until we hear from Awox Inc. We have nothing to draw conclusions on.

I'm not in Awox corp, but do fly with him sometimes, I'm not fully aware of the agreement there between you, but if he really did say that the money you paid him did infact ensure your protection for 24 hours then I'm sure he'll re-imburse your loss.

Mistakes happen and i can well imagine that one gets confused about "a day" when living in different time zones. Of course, 24 hours do make sense and this is how it has to be understood in a strict sense, but one could easily mistake it as "till tomorrow".
That being said, just paying back 1/2 of the fee is wrong. Imho one should pay the whole fee plus reimbursement for the ship.
I read that disturbingly often here - "if he pays ransom and the npcs blow him up afterwards, i'll pay back a part of the ransom"... . What?! Why not all?

Edited by: Tobias Sjodin on 14/08/2006 00:42:07 I think it's like this:
Carebear A get ransomed by Yarr-pirate A of Yarr-pirate-corp. A,
Yarr-pirate A let Carebear A go, but Carebear A manages to get held up by Yarr-pirate B, of Yarr-pirate-corp A, and dies.
Carebear A then, failing to admit his own failure, makes up a story about how Yarr-pirate A really meant the ransom for Yarr-pirate-corp. A, and proceeds to make a story up on the forums, to appeal to the public.

Never at any time was a time negotiated. I did however leave local for 12 hours after immediately after you paid me, that was rather generous I think. - nerf 0.5+ |

Agreed. This guy was confused as to how long I was allowing him, he said he only got half of the bargain so I offered half of the ISK back to him, almost charitable.  - nerf 0.5+ |

It is very simple.
If Awox received money from this guy, thereby proclaming that he coule mine in peace from their corp for 24 hours, well, that's the deal.
Now, if anything happens, and this deal is broken, like when he got shot by Awox's corpmates, he should be compensated for his ship, and the mining fee he paid.
If this doesn't happen, Awox has been dishonest in his dealings, and should not be trusted. But there are many aspects in matters like this, and discussing whose fault it is can be endless...only thing relevant is, that Feng lost his stuff in violation to a deal he made, and should be compensated!

Eh, I think Awox has already said that no time was negotiated. Which would mean that the miner was left in peace for 12 hours or so after paying a single ransom.... not bad imo.
