What do you do? Do you pay the New Order their ransom or do you Eject while they are busy and warp away in your pod before the even realize what just happened to them?

Ideas. Opinions.

As dealing with the New Order is a requirement now in High Sec I am wondering what people do when they do not want to pay the fee that they are trying to assess you. I havn't had the misfortune of being bumped by them, but a few people I know have and I want to try to avoid some of the things that happens to them. I feel ejecting is a viable option cause in my opinion once they are bumping you and locking you, it's over regardless if you pay them or not. Wouldn't ejecting be able to deny them at least the jolly feeling we all know they get when they pop a Hulk?

You've got a choice: Pay up, and carry on as you have been. Or decline, and move/learn how to cope/do something othern than what you've been doing.

If you're a true Bot Aspirant, you pay up, and go back to the mind-numbing 'activity' of watching rocks melt. If, on the other hand, you Do Something Else™, both you AND the New Order have won - and there is one less Bot Aspirant playing the game.

Botting makes as much sense as Rusty Kants does :)

Talking about in the moment. As in they are at the moment bumping you and demanting their "toll for crossing me bridge here". Yeah switch is all good and everything, but it doesn't help when you can't align and warp.

As there are multiple threads on the New Order, this one gets a lock.

The rules:
16. Redundant and re-posted threads will be locked.

As a courtesy to other forum users, please search to see if there is a thread already open on the topic you wish to discuss. If so, please place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forums needlessly, causing good feedback and ideas to be lost. Please keep discussions regarding a topic to a single thread.
