Scurvy Dogs code
Crew rules dictated by Captain Tanzer Brodie:
We have a short list of rules as I don’t want to keep my Dogs on any kind of leash.
1. Follow orders. This only applies if you are on a corporate roam or an op. You will listen to the Forward Commander and follow their instructions. If you disagree with the FC’s orders, simply jump ship (quit fleet) and make your way home alone as best you can. If you do not follow orders, or start arguments with the FC you will be forced to walk the plank (you will be kicked from the fleet) and no help will be given to you should you become engaged by hostile forces. Mutiny will not be tolerated. Punishment: Walking the Plank
2. Honor Ransoms. I can’t stress the importance of this one enough. The entire profession of piracy hinges upon following this edict. When you ransom the victim has 30 seconds to comply and flash your wallet. If they don’t kill them. No exceptions. If they pay, let them go unharmed. No exceptions. If you blow up their ship/pod after a ransom was paid, you will refund the ransom. No exceptions. For corp. roams all loot/ransom is to be split by the FC with each member of the engagement getting an equal share (including the corp.). The first Scurvy Dog to get/maintain point on an enemy gets one and a half shares. Punishment: Lashes*
3. Don’t talk smack to our ransom victims. They are our customers and they deserve good customer service. Besides, nothing drives them crazier than a pirate who robs them with calm and style. Other pirates and corps who try to jump us while we conduct our business are fair game for smack talk. No racist comments please, they are low class (even for us) and Captain Tanzer Brodie is of African American descent despite his skinhead looking white boy portrait. Punishment: Lashes
4. Don’t steal from the corp. Give unto Ceasar, that which is Ceasar’s. Stealing includes skimming from corp. ops, “forgetting” to turn in booty to the FC, scamming the corp. /crew or taking more than your fair share. Again, this applies only to corporate ops. What you do on your own is your own. Chief Mate Falnox Barkus is the Security Officer and in charge of giving punishments. If he accuses you, the first offense means confiscation and lashes. Any additional offense is punishable by Keel Hauling. Petitions for wrongful accusation can be sent to Tanzer Brodie, but likely you are screwed, so take great pains to avoid even the appearance that you might be stealing from us. Other corps or individual players are fair game. Punishment: Lashes or Keel Hauling**
5. Do what you want. Do what you want with your own time. See if you can bring infamy and dishonor on our names. Scam, gank, ransom, flip cans, cargo scan, mine, run missions, do whatever you want. We have only a 5% tax on bounties and mission payouts. But keep in mind, if you get in over your head, ask for backup, or involve the corp. in any substantial way, it is now a corp. op and you owe the shares. Punishment: Boredom
6. NBSI policy. Not blue shoot it. We are a new corp. with no friends. We really aren’t too interested in ingratiating ourselves to anyone. Therefore, if the pilot/corp. has not been set as blue (an Ally) shoot the bastards and take their stuff. Punishment: Boredom
* Lashes are a monetary fine. The number of lashes is multiplied by the isk amount of 10,000.
** Keel Hauling is being booted from the corporation.
