See, here be the problem… you engaged in a duel without a second. It is that person (or persons) job to at the best of their ability ensure the rules of engagement are followed and to preferably only need act as observers.

Sadly, like yourself, so few people take the time to secure the services of a good second.

No, he confirmed it, when we were talking. when he seen that I started neut’n him, he brought in his alt to save him. But it’s good to know now that there are “busybodies” who actually do this.

well thanx for the kudos, but I guess in your eyes there are no rules then and so continue on with the name calling?

How ironic.  
It is not me who creates a whine thread about how his ego got hurt by someone who bested him

But hey … whatever makes you feel better, right?  
This thread is not going to achieve it though, because you’re a loser.

If you have an issue with _ **accurately, spot on and to the point** _ being called a loser, as you are and have proven to be, then maybe you should stop acting like on and instead act like a man who understands that he got bested.

Loser.

I know this is basically “against the rules” when it comes to “have the last word”, but still …

Too many rules in high sec. You have to figure out if you’re allowed to shoot.

Put your safety to green or yellow, and you won’t be able to shoot players that will make you suspect or criminal respectively. It’s as simple as that.

I’m also not able to shoot stuff in low with green setting (though I’ve never used yellow… just green and red).

I honestly don’t see the need for playing aggression games in high sec to try to find people to shoot. It’s really easy to find people to shoot in low and null. Wormholes… well I assume people who live there are really good at finding targets.
