I was attacked by 2 pirates Majestic Leev0y and Biodegradable of the Caldari Navy Raiders corp. I asked Majestic to help me (a fairly new player) testing my shields (yes obviously a dumb move) but I asked for help in good faith and never even fought back. My shields were holding fine against Majestic Leev0y so he called in a friend (Biodegradable) to help him They ransomed me for 20 million ISK and I paid quickly and they still blew me up. PLAYERS BEWARE. DO NOT PAY THESE BOYS RANSOM THEY WILL STILL BLOW YOU UP, and for the rest of you pirates that may find this interesting info. Majestic Leev0y was bragging about having 71 billion in ISK in his wallet... just in case you may find the need to ransom him :)

Sorry to hear about your loss, I always honour ransoms - but don't forget, pirates don't have to be honourable at all times.

Thank you. Yes I found out not to trust anyone. It just really upsets me cause I asked him for help. It wasn't like I was trying to be big and bad and duel him or something in high sec I told him from jump that I am not a PVPer and that I just wanted a little help. I am only here to spend time with my husband and he took total advantage of me. Then took all my money and my ship. Only thing I find solice in is that what comes around goes around, and they will get theirs.

It doesn't mean you paid ransom to a pirate that lets you go, there wont be another one on the next gate to finish the job.
On the other hand, in situations like this its just lame. Best is to name and shame the offenders to their respective CEO's if that doesnt help name and shame them on the forums.

I think it's important to remember that, for the most part, this is the exception and not the rule. For instance, in Veto if you charge a ransom and it's paid and you still pop the pod I'm pretty sure that Verone would likely smite you with divine purpose.
Not honoring a ransom is just low. You got your isk, let them be on their way.

I just found out about this. And i am not happy AT ALL. i or one of the other Sr officers will get in contact with you ingame rather than airing this on a public forum.

Do not trust random unknown corps to honor ransoms.
Though those that carry more of a name, and have been around for a longer time, honor ransoms out of their own best interest.
OMG has a "dishonor a ransom, get kicked out of corp"-policy. Which also extends to mutually agreed 1v1:s.
But true, there are some silly kids out there who won't be around for long enough to make any long-term impact anyways.

If you see my VERY old video - "birth of a pirate" - you'll see me honoring ransom's on that. This was unknown to us, and we'll be looking into it. Watch this space.

I can never quite understand these people who fail to honour ransoms. It can only have a negative effect on their own fut ure income.
Safe to say tho mate that the majority of pirates in eve DO honour their ransoms, and its good to see the corp in question are looking into the matter for you.

I wanted to post at this time to let everyone know that the corporation in question here is of high integrity and that the culprits do not represent their corps views. I have been contacted quite nicely by the CEO and another member who dealt with the situation quite nicely and I thank you Drider and Brakdue :) now to Majestic. Yes you did offer me a drake with fittings and I told you thats ok I learned a lesson just to give me back my ransom and you laughed and left I demand that if you are gonna be posting here that you paid me back to pony up the pic to show proof otherwise to not try to put me down here to compensate for your short comings. But again to make it clear to everyone the Ceo and other members of this corp appear to be very honorable Thank you both :)

Edited by: Maeltstome on 29/04/2007 21:48:26 Ok, so you where paid back the 20 million - offered a replacement drake. and you are STILL *****ing about this? Issue over.
also i found this in "Lord Mortus" bio
Biodegradable > :) I appreciate your anger, and accept its due, but dont let it sour your day
Meaning your 'husband' (alt?) already knew bio and probably maj. This all reeks of pish.

I was speaking in general terms. But should the OP speak truthfully, my point would strike true.
Everyone knows the answers to this one for instance:
"Would a pilot in VETO honor a ransom?"

"will noobs always moan at loosing a ship?"
the answer, in this case, yes. This topic should never even have started. I'm very annoyed at this.

To the carebear population, speaking on behalf of The Legitimate Nigerian Businessmen, one of the newest additions to the pirate skies I can assure you that our corporation would immidiately kick any member who purposly dishonor ransoms, and our corporation will give nothing but air-mail ammo to those outside the corp who dishonor them.
Posting on behalf of my CEO who ofcourse not my other character as that would be immoral, Kublai who is currently banned for having a sig too stylish for these forums.
In short, honor your ransoms weakling, anything else is just pathetic.

Please read our updated corp bios, to clarify our position.
I would like to think this matter has now been resolved.
Please people remember its a game, "not just a game", but a game none the less.

I am not a pirate myself, but not honoring a ransom is not only stupid, its low.
You are, as a player, becoming notorious in that you get renown for taking the ransom and 'podding/destroying" - and so in time, not only do you not get your ransom, all the other pirates are going to pod you over and over again for making their jobs more doubted.
Because when you fail to pay, all pirates are affected in that that person (which DO count up) simply wont pay ransoms again.
Some people are just plain stupid, and sorry for your loss.

Edited by: Dalcx on 30/04/2007 06:29:47 It happend to me the same day as Lady Mortus lost her ship . Same ship same fitting about 300m down the drain :(
Majestic Leevoy said in local he wanted to try out his Raven in a duel so I told him sure why not. So we warp to a planet as he told he dident wanted to be disturbed.. LOL stupid me I have never PVP or duel so I dont know how to trigger it and ofc I had to loot his can :)
Duel starts one of his corp mate warps in to watch the fight.
Shields down to 0% and he is asking for a ransom lol? I ignored him and 3-4 more ships warp in and finish me off :/
This was going one in alot of other Systems as I followed them with my alt and Agent seems they where really bored :)
Ah well lesson learned

Originally by: Carbon Argon You are, as a player, becoming notorious
Thankyou, this means a lot coming from a 'not a pirate'
Originally by: Carbon Argon all the other pirates are going to pod you over and over again for making their jobs more doubted
How do I stop them podding me in the first place - how many 'good' people get podded, you obviously assume none, and if you really beleive that all pirates honour everything, then you are also due a lesson in life.
How can you possibly see pirating as honourable ? or are you going to split hairs ?? gate camps ? belt searching for miners ? ganks and blobs ? non-consensual pvp ? ore theft ?
*I* am playing the game, *I* don't ***** about being a stoopid carebear with so little sense that I ask for 'out of corp' tank testing, *I* am playing within the bounds of the game - you carry on mining, and leave the real game to the rest of us.
Originally by: Carbon Argon Because when you fail to pay, all pirates are affected in that that person (which DO count up) simply wont pay ransoms again.
Its nice that you think we have such a huge influence over so many people.
tbh, you really should read ALL the posts, not just the first one. Underpaying a ransom is an insult, and following that insult with a podding is not dishonourable, but surely, to be expected, and so the original poster should have given all the details, not just the ones that demonise the honest, hard working players that are trying to make isk the hard way, and are not simply doing it by sitting and waiting for the poor roids to belch isk over them.

The plot thickens! If this is the case then I would have blown the OP up as well!
Staying out of it now, without screen shots nothing can be proved. Its only a ship after all.

This all just screams that you guys got caught out being immature 'holes, and now you're desperately trying to cover up by trying to make amends and filling the forums with liable, because you realised that having your name forever ruined isnĘt worth a tiny bit of isk. If you want to go around acting like that.. Deal with the consequences.. DonĘt try and lie and cheat your way out of it. Anything I say on these forums is in no way connected in any way shape or form to the corporation and alliance i'm a part of. |

problem is, what constitutes an unknown corp?
If it weren't for the forums i'd have no idea who any of the pirate corps even were, let alone whether they honoured ransoms or not.
