Pirate RP is dead

Take time out to look at what you want from the game. You have tried IOC BG and now SMG is this perhaps telling you something?

eh but you can do that in my opinion that's a pirate :taxing killing kindaping stealing cargo(npc or ppl):D

*walks in.... Reads.... *facepalm*... throws out in the bin & looks for a shotgun*

well I do have to admit that the RP (im talking about general) is getting quite linear and lame

but thats because ppl have no clue what RP is

Pirate roleplay is not about making money - or obtaining taxes.

It is about making people nervous - especially established players and clans on the server.

It is about ensuring that the fat arrogant cops realise space is not safe.

It is about being free to do whatever you want (according to server rules) and driving the best roleplay on the server.

I wish it was not this way - but I am afraid it is.

And I wish you best luck.

Ofc cops rarely pay tax, just like pirates rarely pay fines
But seriously i don't believe we will ever make money by tax/fines. I always pay tax if i'm in my train and can't escape to a planet, and i've fined pirates in the same situation, but those 3-4 mills are gone as soon as u enter a fight or two. Yesterday i've spent about 30Mills kicking your pirate bottoms. So what i'm saying is don't be lazy, jump in the train and make some money, U can at least trade BMG which is no option for me.

How about, to try with more activity Diablo.You are rarely on line.But ok, i can understand ur frustration.

Catch me in my train char, and np.I always pay tax while in trade char.Do not except from me to pay tax while patrolling in fighter.This is ridiculous.

You talking about RP, tell me pls did you ever try to recruit smb.

Yes this can be boring, but could be useful for RP.Atm FYI, few of them want to become pee-rats.Do not expect from me, to recruit for Pee-rats.This is against server rules and far away from RP-IMO

ps
msg in general, for all Pee-rats clan

I always tell new player to try the different RP as a freelancer before asking to join a clan.

Also I agree with Huor, pirate RP is about hunting down traders and not being caught by cops. Why would anyone pay a tax when they are in a fighter? Unless they have escape pods or unmounted equipment on board they have no reason to pay anything. Maybe it would be clearer if instead of tax we called it extortion. And also, I have remarked that people (even cops) are much more inclined to pay taxes if you create a story. RP doesn't mean fights it means Role Play. Create a personage for yourself, a story. It makes things much more interesting.

Thumbs Up to Myric, you can't be more right.

I agree, I too pay tax when in a train or APC. I will also pay tax if the pirate asks for tax, we fight and I lose - it just seems like a fair thing to do.

Seriously, start lobbying for recruits - there's a lot of newbies lately on the server, some of which are very good.

Well for the record, i do pay tax even in my fighter if I lose the fight.

I expect Pirates to be mean, vicious, unkind, brutal and thuggish. I find it hard to believe that people here expect them to be polite & nice....( oh no, wait, this is how its supposed to be according to most..tea time anyone?0

CF is not a social get together to sit in X and talk all night, it's about combat and RP.

Diablo: I was really hoping you would be that Pirate who just creates havoc, going from system to system and making traders miserable.....and from time to time, making a cop miserable too.

Pirates need to stop being nice, its not their role and not the way they are supposed to be.

I often thought about going Pirate to show people how it's done, but I can only imagine what the complaints would be like if I did..........sort of makes me wonder after all the ridiculous claims that are made now^^

I can see it now on the high seas in the 1800's:

" Pirate Ship: Excuse me kind Sir, would you happen to have any grey-poupon?

Merchant: Oh certainly I do, shall I toss you a line?

Pirate Ship: Jolly good mate, I'll send the steward to fetch the goods, shall we do tea at 4?

Merchant: outstanding, I will notify the crew and have crumpets prepared."

Its not - you can guide freelancers to the clans or give the responisble persons a hint. That would mean you leave your eyes open for others as well. Not thinking everytime about yourself and your clan.
