im going to say only this: everything is hapening all over again when i was leader in KRT clan. we were police (for some pirates) because we were killing smugglers. then you all came to conclusion that we cant kill the same smuggler twice cuz its not fair to them and that they need to earn their money. so, we made an agreement that we will kill a smuggler only once in 24 hours.
but , the blokade thing is next: there are no rules for the blokade. for example: can a policeman kill the same person as many times as he wants to ? or is there a imit? i ask because many my friends went to trade i Rheiland and its boring to be the only 1 trading the old Sol route. there are also few UACs but if you see it so, there are only 4 smugglers on Sol route and im the biggest one. im also hiring people to protect my and my cargo.
now, the thing with Tassie: i came to Dublin and manage to escape to Hyperion. but there was a Fallen waiting on me to tax me and he disrupted my trade line. and before i entered sol, Tassie came in his destroyer and he got me. and i lost 5000 lists. OK, i accept that, man finally manage to kill me after 3 days, hehe. after that i was respawned on LA. i bought Giverment Lists again and went to Sol. i manage to pass Dublin and Hyperion with Fallens help but in Sol Tassie manage to find me and he fired on me. i entered jump gate and at the end of it i said to him "Sry m8" and i switched chars, cuz i dont want to lose 10000 lists (5000 from before) . the blokade is excelent but rules are needed. are you going to kill everyone 100 times in 1 day if you see him smuggling? or....

Imho the blockade is there to make sure no black market goods are traded. So if you try again, then you will be killed again. Over and over till you get the message.
-
Yes, that is the whole point to a blockade. You either stop the trade in question or all the merchants die. Good RP.

hm, i see what you guys mean.
well, in that case, i APOLOGIZE TO YOU Tassie FOR logging off. i wont make it again, i promise. i am a pirate but a honourable pirate. again, im sorry for my actions it wont happen again. good RP guys and i hope that more clans will come to participate it the RP such as H5N1, GK, NY4 (or something like that, too many symbols) and other new clans.
RIP is already taking his position as pirate and we are tring to destroy the blokade see you ingame -

OK Inferno. It takes a good person to apologise.
Lets just forget it happened and get back to the game.
To all u ppl who only play in evening GMT let me tell u this Role Play gets really active in other time zones.
With only one guard on blockade the traders have a chance of getting thru and lots try to make the run.
To help the blockade i may decide to move the barrier from Dublin into SOL (wont tell u where). So it will be further to go on a respawn and harder to plan an attack with an escort.
In fact the barrier might be anywhere from Hyperion gate to earth docking ring. [9]

Nothing last forever. I am shure that BG won't keep this blockade for ever. Right!?
-
He he... maybe there won`t be a guard non-stop, but the blockade will last [8]

i jst want to inform you all that yesterday we had a BIG BATLE in Dublin and we have fight for 1,5 hour. the BG won after they manage to recruit SL (hehe for 100M). the fight was great and i call you all to join the forces of evil (pirates, smugglers, etc) so we can crush the blokade
btw. the RP is great in last time. the server is FINALLY ALIVE . just keep going that way -
Cyber is a cap-ship killer... I think I'm stearing clear of the next scruffle. I found that I couldn't survive more than 20 seconds after engaging From what I've gathered there are two definite sides to this right? BG, SL (as long as they are payed), and IOC vs anyone who wants to smuggle, right?
-
As far as I am aware IOC does not "have a side". Some members may take on Merc contracts. All contracts must be reviewed and approved by IOC leadership council.
BG is making good RP which we all enjoy. IOC only wants to contribute to the RP so more people can participate and enjoy CF. This is a great way to include non-server clans and freelancers. SL got some merc work as well, so is all good.
LP will still hunt IOC for tax and IOC will still hunt LP in retaliation. The contract approved so far deals strictly with the blockade. IOC/LP RP has not changed. The same is true for ASF/CSF RP.
Thank you to BG for taking the initiative to create more good RP.
This all about having fun.
Btw, Argos too bad you are on vacation. hehehe.
-
We are also payed to engage any pirates as far as they make the first move. Also, CFPD and DC helped out at the BG side. So it's more like: Law enforcers and mercs vs. pirates and smugglers of lists
Grtz
-
To be very clear, IOC is not on the pirate side. The contract is very specific to the blockade only and is short term. Any new contracts would have to go through review again.
IOC will always assist Gunny and CFPD whenever and wherever we are needed.
If BG wants to hire an IOC member or members, then we would certainly review that proposal.
-
I'd have to agree that this is a hotspot for RP. People have come to recognize Dublin as an important system in sector trade and are willing to go to great legnths to overthrow any effort to regulate the traffic traveling through. I would hope that BG keeps this going indefinately and that people derive ASF - CSF RP out of it as well. There's a lot of potential in this scenario and it seems that nobody is exlcuded from it
As part of my own RP I will be supporting the blockade. Though I love government agents lists just as much as any other smuggler, it gives me an opportunity to supplement the blockade with my own. I will be searching cargo holds for alien materials, weapons, suspicious items, and captured "Order-friendly" escape pods. As almost nobody transports these items though I don't think I'll have to try very hard to enforce this :O. I am not interested in attacking regular smugglers and will try to stay neutral in the battles ^^.

blockage, eh? :] prepare for LPs Doom, even though im out of CF now

This is for the people who have had me on there backs about F1'ing
if you trade in BMG from L.A. to sol once you are in dublin
you have entered RP by default whether you are in a clan or a freelancer new to server or a salty old space dogthe options are drop cargo for destuction, accept an escort back to L.A. and sell the goods at the price you paid or be destroyed.
please notice the distict lack of F1 as an option
the blocade is to stop these goods reaching Earth son Hyperon and Sol are included in this RP
the F1 option is RP cheating and i know at least 1 SP who has threatened to fine a player if he keeps doing it
if you are not prepared to risk the loss of the cargo
DO NOT TRADE THIS ROUTE this is a very simple thing
if you are not playing the RP stay the hell away
there are other routes that return good profits in fact some that make more per hour than the sol route
ever can
