I think people bash privateers too hard currently. They are just common empire pirates now, with a fancy back history. Currently they are not different than a lot of empire mercenary corps.
Forgive to be forgiven....

Please, we want people to think of us as pond scrum and that we always run or dock. I am sure the 4 Ravens pilots were thinking that when we rocked their world last week winthin 4 minutes of their arrival. My only regret is that Sorted was in the wrong place and the wrong time.
But thanks anyway, we will never live our past down, but on the other hand we don't want to.

No, you don't understand.
He ganked a nighthawk WITH HONOUR!
You know, I always kinda wonder about the kind of people we dec or fight. Some come to the forums to cuss us and some come can say "bring your game mate". For all that the Goons have done to hold BoB at bay when I see posts like this I don't have to wonder anymore.

Edited by: Mortal Arrow on 08/08/2007 23:21:26 Thanx for the fight thats all i was after. I knew I could take a few of you on with np and wanted to push it to the limits had there not been 2 lach. there it may have turned out different. I did retreat into low sec hoping they would come and they did. In the end I lost a T2 fitted nighthawk and had some fun doing it. Why play the game if you dont want to have fun? I love PVP and always will. Mortellaro was my original character hince the names sounding alot alike anyone who knew me back in 2003-2004 can say I will always be the first in and take the risk. never know i might get lucky and win :)

Actually sounds like pretty much fun, and well your gain, yours and the other guy just for the good moments i bet both passed.
Would be nice to see much more posts like this.

They will not, they cannot even fight a war of words well. Even then they were silent as we got gutted by BoB, other than Xelas (same kind of creatures), I dislike them almost as much.

Whats with everyone rippin on this guy for going down in style? So what if it cost him ISK.. what is this, cost/benefit analysis online? Whether you're flying a t1 frig against a fleet of battleships, or a command ship solo against a hostile squad.. the best things you can aim for are a spectacular kill, or a spectacular death, preferably both.
The universe is hostile, so impersonal, devour to survive, so it is, so it's always been.

Good and "honorable" fights are few and far in between.
Nice post coming from a Privateer. ^^ Props for Mortal for going down fighting whilst outnumbered.

Edited by: Crivens on 10/08/2007 23:41:38 If you measure yourself by the valour of your enemies and HIS enemies were the kind of guys that need 9 pirates PLUS reinforcements to gank a single ship - and take five systems to chase down a battlecruiser - then it must SUCK to be him right now.

You know what, perhaps you are worse than BoB. I make a a good post about another player, and you goons have proven that you really are the horses' *** many say you are.

One of your guys the other asked me nicely after I had him locked down to please give him a break, he had spent all of his isk buying the Domi, for whatever reason I thought he was telling me the truth so I let him go. He even mailed afterward and said that we was on the level and thanked me again.
But after these posts from Goons I will not make that choice again, 1 day or 3 years as a player it will make do difference to me.

nice story but...
I find it funny that you talk about respect/honor and yet, being 6vs1 you had to bring in more. Respect should be given to you, if you have lost your 6 ships to this guy.

Great Post Hooch. Props to Mortal Arrow for making a stand. Those of us who value honor and respect will remember these events accordingly. Those who don't... well I wish them luck getting through life with that outlook.

It's always nice when you get a fair fight but what he did seems rather pointless. Of course if there was a chance of him winning or at least taking out a few of you, or if he had some backup coming it's a whole different thing. But your story doesn't even tell what ships were in your gang so it is difficult to see what his chances acually were.
On the subject I'd like to quote Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg (played by Gary Oldman) in The fifth element:
Originally by: Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg I don't like warriors. Too narrow-minded, no subtlety. And worse, they fight for hopeless causes. Honor? Huh! Honor's killed millions of people, it hasn't saved a single one.

Good post, grats to op and that Mortal Arrow.
I can only laugh at the goons.
Didn't they always say it doesn't matter if you lose ships "hey it is all a game and pixels only", "only the fun matters". Now we have someone here who enjoyed to have a good battle and not like most people - some goons obviously included from their reactions - just log in fear that their precious ships might get blown up.
Winning? Haha, that is so yesterday. You play Eve to 'win'? Funny, then you already lost. Because the only way to 'win' is to have best fun no matter what.

I bet there's alot of EVE players who'd run away with a 260m isk ship on the line.
I wouldn't, but I've never broken 100m in my wallet except when i get lots of insurance payouts close together.
Also, I like that I came to CAOD and found a thread that shows respect to players, and treat the game lightly, like a game should be imo.
