I paid the ransom but he still popped me, not moaning just letting you know he has no honour so don't pay him. if this is in the wrong place i'm sure someone will move it

I assume it's the same DMF group i know, the guys are a good group of pirates, skilled an all... but that's where i have anything nice to say about them.

I'd pop you too, and if you payed me to do it I'd happily oblige. |

Dont have the other convo as it was in two parts.
This isn't a whine i know the mistakes i made but thats down to RL issues.
It was just a warning, some pirates leave you be if you pay; just letting people know that this one doesn't.

Honorable pirates would leave you alone if you paid the ransom, assuming that's what they're there to collect. If you OFFER a ransom, it's a little different, although if they agree to accept a ransom in exchange for not blowing your ship up and they still do, it's just as bad.
The sad fact is most people don't care about honor or integrity. I have no problem with honor-bound pirates out for a profit. Most of them are just PKs, not pirates. Don't let the naming conventions fool you; Pirates are in it for PROFIT, period. If they're just in it to kill people for fun, they're PKs, not pirates.
That being said, I'd rather pay 20 million in ransom than get podded and lose 32 million in basic +3 implants. Reputation is important. If you gain a reputation for actually LETTING your victims live if they pay, they'll be more likely to pay. If you get a reputation for killing people after they pay, they're going to figure "why bother"?

The way I see it is. I have more money in my head than any thing else I am flying around, and I spent that money to be better at PVP than the 32 mil +3 implant dude. But you never know who has those sweet implants in their head so if you catch a pod, kill it. I expect to be podded if I am caught and it makes me more aware of what I can and can't do, and jam the 'warp to' button a great bit more if I see my ship floundering.
In the end though if you wish to pay me to save your pod, I will happily take the money. I think current market value of your ship is a decent amount. That way I know I cause you financial hardship due to your insurance being void. And then I will pod you to make sure that those hardwiring implants are no longer in your head.
That is the very definition of Honor and Integrity right there. It is also Respect.

honoring ransoms does not mean a lot to a lot of the newer players.I think those that dont honor ransoms are Ga y. |

It doesn't mean a lot to a lot of older players, either. Guilty as charged (the gay thing). |
