For curiosity's sake, may I ask what you renamed the ship?

May I suggest the "Courageous"?

No no no. It should be "Mithru's Folly".

True, let's keep the legislative discussion aside, I was just curious about that part. I'm not implying anything, but some elaboration would be rather welcome.
Ah, I had not seen that comment. Sorry.

All ideological bullsh*t aside, capturing a capital ship intact is not your everyday event. Well done.

Congratulations to the Minmatar militia, and particularly to Autocannons Anonymous on their shiny new Archon. I am of course pleased to see slaves rescued and repatriated to their native land, but I think the greatest reward was the hang-wringing, wailing and gnashing of teeth from the various Amarrian apologists in this thread.


So I'm glad to see where your priorities lie.

Darkness is more then absence of light, it is ignorance and corruption. I will be the Bulwark from such things that you may live in the light. Pray so my arms do not grow weary and my footing remain sure.

I congratulate the pilots involved in bringing down those loyal to the wretched Jamyl Sarum and her imperial ilk

A clarification:

Any and all slaves are illegal the instant they enter Republic space. Slavery here is illegal; I dont care if your name is Huggie the Sunshine Holder, you bring your slaves here, you will be prosecuted by Tribal law.

The fact that these slaves were illegal by any standard, even Amarrian ones, was the point I attempted to make; forgive my lack of clarity, emotions and adrenalyne were running quite high. The mistreatment, thoughtless use of vitoc, and horrid state of health that these people were in should be enough for anyone to say "ok, this is too much".

Autocannons Anonymous can name their new Archon as they see fit, as long as they put it to use continuing to fight against atrocity like this, the name is irrelevant.

Apologies to anyone I may have offended earlier today in the Summit; as I said, I was emotional and wound-up. I dont believe anyone would have felt differently in the same position.

Masterfully executed. Well done. A victory like this is extra sweeter when you act as an agent of the common good.

Define abuse.

To cut any fruitless and inevitable ensuing discussion, could we get a visual proof of these ten thousand freed slaves for the sake of everyone's sanity ?

That's interesting. I can spot the capsuleer dementia but I can't seem to find the 'Hello Auga local, I am 100% certainly transporting illegal slaves in my Archon's cargo' part.




So there're these wonderful things called Cargo Scanners..

Also, possibly flashy red displays and a fleet of disgruntled CONCORD and/or Republic Fleet vessels chasing after her?

I'd be interested in acquiring the loo--ahh--ahem.

I'd be willing to open my home to as many of those young slaves as need a place to stay.

I think the subject is in reference to the crew manning the ship itself, rather then crew held as cargo on board.

Loyal to Jamyl? Hmm... a blood raider should be a fine judge of loyalty to the Empress, right?!...

I know we Amarrians need to be a little lenient towards capsuleers. And I do try my best to be open minded. This pilot could be as pious and loyal as any ordinary Fuzzy Wuzzy Attack Ferret one might come across at a local scripture reading on Amarr Prime. Still, I do slightly doubt that her title within her corp is... Theology Council approved. In all seriousness though, I found a disturbing lack of Imperial ham sandwiches in the bio of this pilot. Therefore it cannot be true.

Fuzzy Wuzzy Attack Ferrets are a truly devout sect of Imperial fundamentalists indeed, second only in virtue to the Legion of Spoon or that corp named after a scrumptious pastry.

Well done, as already said, capturing a vessel intact isn't exactly a common occurrence. As for the slaves and crew, another well done.

I don't care what religion, ideology, politics, or allegiances anyone here might claim. The fact of the matter is that more people are still alive at the end of the day than would have been if the carrier had been destroyed.

And you never hold anyone to anything they say and construe accordingly?
