Edited by: RedSplat on 26/02/2009 12:12:47We have a list of Corp thieves and Scammers here http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=603530&page=1, we have various other lists useful to victims and perpetrators alike. To the best of my knowledge C&P doesn't have a list of Corps that honour Ransoms and/or those that don't; and i don't mind taking that on as a little project. Why people choose to honour ransoms or not is not what i would like this thread to address, but rather whom does or does not. Maybe next time you ask for a ransom you might actually get one, the victim might actually get to escape with an unviolenced boat. Or perhaps no-one cares for this. That's fine, in which case let the thread die. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If your corp. honors ransoms, feel free to post and say so, along with any other information you wish to include. If your corp doesn't always bother asking for ransoms but might accept one sometimes and honor it, let the thread know. If anyone sees a Corp up here that doesn't honor ransoms, post a rebuttal- along with proofI will update OP and subsequent place holders as info comes in. If doubt is put upon a Corp details of the accusations and evidence will be included and readers can make up their own mind. One point to make is that i wont be actively searching out whom will or will not honour ransoms of my own accord, avoiding bias you know Disregard, too many threads up lately with juicy info. Feel free to challenge. Proof is preferably to be sent to the Email address specified in the Bio of this character; please put the subject as 'Proof'. Or EVE mailed to this same character --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following Corps aim to offer or accept and honour Ransoms, providing the situation makes this possible, under the terms they may or may not dictate. They may not always offer you a Ransom, if so this will be detailed below, it is however always worth asking.Corp:The Black Rabbits Alliance:The Gurlstas Associates Originally by: H Lecter Speaking on behalf of The Guristas Associates I may confirm that our ransoms are being honored. We have a strict Code of Conduct and you may feel free to contact me in game if you experienced differently.
We reserve the right not to offer a ransom to our victim if circumstances do not permit or if we simply do not like you 
Alliance: Blood Money Cartel; appears to be policy alliance wide. Originally by: Eschiava Q As a member of Blood Money Cartel (alliance) we always honor ransoms.
Corp: Idle Guns Alliance: Idle Empire Originally by: Chainsaw Plankton Idle empire honors ransoms. Although just because we honor ransoms doesn't mean we will always give you one. 
Corp:Destinys Lounge Alliance:Important Internet Spaceship League Originally by: Omarvelous
You have to be important enough to get a ransom from us in the first place however.

Corp: Earned In Blood Originally by: Camilo Cienfuegos Like many others have said, we'll honour any ransom we offer. We're willing to listen to proposed ransom payments as well, and we're not too bloodthirsty to turn down payment for safe passage in the first place.

Edited by: RedSplat on 26/02/2009 12:20:59The following Corps have either been claimed to have dishonoured agreed ransoms, or don't accept such at all as appended below; or they are just trolling.Corp: SRIUS BISNIS Alliance: (?)

I have setup an external (spamproof!) mailbox for evidence/proof, the address detailed in the bio of this character. Alternatively, just EVE mail such to this character; although long chatlogs and Screenshots etc.. are a ***** to deal with like that. All such correspondence is confidential. Just to add emphasis- i will not make public the addresses of those that contact me through that email adressLikewise, if anyone wishes to remain an anonymous tipster in-game that's fine- although why you wouldnt just use an alt... EDIT: and yes i dont want to add any Corp as not honouring ransoms without proof |

Edited by: General Coochie on 15/02/2009 23:28:10 You can add The Bastards to the list of corps that honor ransoms. If a member dishonors a ransom they will get kicked form corp.

BTW There isnt a single pirate that will accept a ransom on someone elses terms and let them dictate the ransom. Anshar pilot "ransom for 5mill" - eeer no..
Your categories should be remade.

I dont know.. If I had an Anshar pilot offer me 5B (not 5M I'll give you that) to not kill him I'd think about it. I mean its obvious he has WAY more than that in cargo, but there's a chance none of it will drop, and that which does drop will be to big for me to hall away.. I'd have to ask the gang though.. And he'd have to have offered it with enough time for us to discuss the pros and cons while were shooting him, cos im not stopping for an Anshar to just jump out.. |

We would most definitely take that ransom. The categories are stupid. Either you honor ransoms or you do not. The victim has no say really, either he accepts the terms or he does not. There can still be a dialog but the victim never should get the last word. To be fair I don't think a single pirate corp operates as the blue category. |

Correct, as far as hypotheticals go; for who is to say the ransomee will always put a figure out there that is less than a swashbuckling scallywag was going to ask. You have never pointed someone and had a terse '40 million' (or whatever figure) dropped into local or a convo without prompting? Ransoms are negotiations, not directives someone MUST comply with- even if the other recourse is being popped, or self destructing or ctrl-Q, there are always other options as oposed to paying a ransom. Quote: The following Corps aim to accept and honour Ransoms, under the terms they may or may not dictate:
tl;dr corps in this category offer ransoms, may accept ransom offers initiated by the victim either at face value or as a prelude to the negotiation of a ransom. Such actions are commonplace, or perhaps a matter of corp policy. Quote: may or may not dictate
is the contentious part? Not all Pirates are a well run outfit with guidelines laid down for the terms of a ransom and the conduct of the aggressors following one; i.e. exactly how long the victim remains 'safe', if the ransom is void the moment they leave system etc... Quote: The following Corps MAY accept a ransom and honour it (they may not ask for one) within the terms of whatever agreement you make with them.
tl;dr Corps that don't habitually ask for a ransom, but might be willing to take one if the victim makes known that he is willing to pay to excape unharmed. I'll amend it as: Quote: The following Corps MAY offer you a ransom, or MAY accept a ransom once informed you are willing to pay one and honour it within the agreed terms.
------------------------- Edit: Better? I don't want to define categorys of Pirates/Mercs/whatever in any more complexity- this isnt a legal document. What would you suggest? |

I get what you mean. The difference between blue and yellow is that corps in the former usually ask for a ransom as a matter of course, the latter dont always bother and may need prompting by the victim. I can easily merge the two, but the distinction is rather important for the Victim- and this thread is as much for those who find themselves at the mercy of pirates as it is something to stimulate the flow of ransomed filthy lucre into pirate coffers. This the general view? I would rather not get bogged down in such things. |

Edited by: General Coochie on 16/02/2009 02:05:24 Ok I see what you mean.
As I said we will ask for ransoms most of the times, when circumstances allow it. Naturally you cant ask for a ransom when gate guns fire you and you cant perma tank it, or you have a hostile gang warping in, or if the fight isn't a given win and we are loosing ships etc.

Quote: The following Corps aim to accept and honour Ransoms, under the terms they may or may not dictate:
Are you just expecting someone to lie and say "I'll always offer a ransom," instead of saying "I'll offer a ransom when it's reasonable to offer a ransom," which is actually truthful? Our primary goal in piracy is to get a ransom. Period. We fit the blue category. We aim to accept and honor ransoms. Sometimes our aims don't fully click with the reality of the situation we're in. There's no maybe about it, if we're in a reasonable situation to accept, and the ransom isn't 20 million for a Caldari Navy Raven(which if we got, we'd return) we'll be accepting the ransom. |
