It's not confusing in any way. They may have "extremely restrictive rules of engagement" but aren't pacifists.

Fair enough, I guess. As CVA is currently surrounded by people that I strongly dislike, here's hoping their next thousand kills come much quicker.

If you will permit me I would like to add a decoration and monetary prize of my own to mark this occasion, since this topic has two things in it that I approve of: excellent writing and combat. As an experience combat pilot myself, however, I know that the success or failure of fleets resides with the logistics pilots as much as the fleet commander or ships of the line. As I usually fly Logistics Cruisers myself, I know that these excellent pilots are often overlooked, especially when looking at kill metrics.

To that end, I would like to see a medal created and awarded to the top three logistics pilots in your corporation. I will pay for the costs of such an award. Secondly, to the top logistics pilot in the corporation, I announce an award of fifty million ISK. Post here the name of these oft-overlooked pilots for all to see and I will transfer the ISK.

Sir Cutter,

I'm unsure. This may vary depending on whom you ask. My own 'day of darkness' was a violent, troubling event - of a very personal and private nature. Although I can say that this single day was the trigger for my conversion to the Faith - and I now stand reclaimed, no longer wayward.

Our Faith is the hope of the cluster - congratulations to your pilots, and thank you for your continuing efforts.
