  1. Everyone's butchered the argument about pirate PVP already; the message is clear. 

     

    Actually the question has still not been answered. I also see no giant forum battle, just a few people who are waiting for clarification. It might help if people who are not concerned would stop blowing this out of proportion.

  2. I think in simple terms what is being asked here and it is a valid Alpha game play question in my book.

     

    Countries :   Green hitting Green of any nation is not allowed in game and it is classed as in many games, and frowned upon, as team killing.

     

    Pirates :       Green hitting Green in pirate faction is ok or not ok... that is the question

     

    within the group involved 3 say it is not ok and the one doing the team killing is saying it is ok.

     

    Everyone else, myself included, are just saying what ever...!

     

    Simple as it can be :)

     

    Pretty much it. Nobody of us cared about the "danger" a single Lynx posed obviously. For myself, what annoying was the (in my view) pure trollish attempt to annoy other players. Especially since we usually took every "new" player that showed in pirate faction chat and helped them at the start (questions answered, help with the first capture and so on). 

    Why pure trollish? Because a lynx that fires "broadsides" upon a constellation and two other frigs is nothing else and has nothing to do with "that's how pirates behaved in real life". If I am not completely mistaken, not being able to attack ships of that size in a lone lynx is one of the "gameplay features" stated in the naval faction open world FAQ.

    Q. Can my tiny boat engage that big scary elephant 1st rate?

    A. No, smaller boats can not attack boats that are exceedingly larger (think Lynx vs Victory). This is planned to cut back on greifing/trolling.

     

     

    I think Lynx vs 3 Frigs is pretty much the same. Especially since it can't outmaneuver 3 at once.

    Additionally, nobody would have said anything if the lynx would have tagged us in open world and attacked (as you can do). If friendly fire IS intended for pirates WITHIN battles, at least boarding should be enabled so that a ship that is parking right next to you can be boarded.

  3. You are completely misreading me there, but nice place for a completely pointless Hitler analogy.

     

    First: I did not report him

    Second: As far as I had heard so far, friendly fire (as in: those on your team shoot your team) should be reported and would be looked on.

    Therefore third: I said I'd report it.

    And fourth: My sentence above: Even if in error (after all, I am by far not the one who judges), there is only harm done if admin judges it as well as "wrong" and punishes it. And then is no harm done, since it will be just. So in no case is harm done. I don't see how saying to bring it to an arbitrators attention is harassment. 

  4. Why would it be harassment? Nobody gets punished without cause. So the worst that could happen would be that someone would be bored by checking a case where nothing happened - and if it gets punished it was obviously right to report it. Don't see a problem there.

     

    And still, the question about friendly fire persists. If it is legal I have a Bello waiting as well. Yarr.

  5. We did not complain about a pirate attacking a pirate - but about a pirate attacking his own team after joining in obviously "trollish" fashion. And that is why we said we'd report it, because as far as I heard, intentional friendly fire is not something that is appreciated.

     

    To clarify: He was on the same side of the battle. Nobody complains about getting attacked in open world.
