well in most cases the rank x depends on your amount of money as well as the overall experience (explored stuff)
for me as pirate it doesn't bother what amount of money do your really have - but i am more concerned about your level. As this is evidence for taxing you with the appropriate amount.
Instead you could be happy that he was asking you for tax - he also have could have shoot you in pieces without asking 
Your role would have been to pay (at least 1 possibility), to evade or (the what could be expected of a cop) shooting the pirate without warning (I know hard in a train but a possibility too
And i am sure he mentioned that you should have to pay coz you were in a train and he has seen his chances very high to shot you. So for my understanding you had to deal with a polite pirate

obviously that wasn't me...mwahaha...;)
Well we do have rules for how much and how often
QuoteDisplay MoreTaxes, Fines, Bounty:
Rank 40-50: max. $500k
Rank 51-60: max. $1mio
Rank 61 and more: max. $10mio
Bounties shouldn't be below $500k.
Pirates:
All pirates must have a pirate licence mounted on their ship. Only exception is if an ASF or CSF licence is mounted and the whole clan is known to be
pirates.
Pirates life is a though one, they have to tax other players to earn their daily money.
They may not open fire on a player without asking for tax and receiving an answer no matter if this reply is written word or an action. If the player does
pay then the pirate can be happy. If the player does not pay the pirate may destroy him.
Pirates may not tax more than the listed amounts (see "Taxes, Fines, Bounty").
Pirates may attack police without any warning and may hire mercenaries if needed.
If a player has been taxed he may not get taxed again within the next 2 hours.
As you can see he could have just killed you on sight.
I watch who is in system so I am prepared .
Actually it is good RP ,we have to have rules i am afraid.
As to using abstract terms that is upto whoever is talking not everyone acts in character and is upto them if they do or dont.
matter of fact is (like you already said too) we need the rank the determine the amount of money we can tax from you.
So i don't understand your point here. The character itself (pirate in this case) has the job to tax anyone he think needs to be taxed.
Well his statement about your rank and LOE was inappropriate but OK. Without the knowledge of your rank - we cant do our job not very good and it would cause more problems as using the level of experience in game.
BTW you cops have to use the same table to reference what amount of fine you can put on anyone.
And if you would fine me (e.g. lvl 90) with 10 mil - and i say - hey what about 1 mil instead. I am sure you wont lol about and thing this damn guy has more than 1000 million credits - why the heck he don't want to pay 10 mil...
Maybe i didn't got your point - pls try to explain it more clearly for me^^
His point is that mentioning rank is "Out of Character " in roleplaying .
My point is that its very minor and not that "OC"
Especially if it was in a private chat not system chat.
Not everyone stays "In Character" at all times ,I never do in group or private chat .
In RP terms
QuoteHe read you your rights as required by the terms of his Pirate Licence and you were fined according to the FL pilot registry
How is that then?
