I've been corrupted * sigh *. While flying around in LTT 1935 I saw a Novice Anaconda so decided it was worthy of a gank. Annoyingly I didn't get behind it and it high waked. In my mild frustration I then saw a mostly harmless Vulture.

So I interdicted him. He submitted, clearly tried to low wake and panicked, I think, but by the time he had weapons actually deployed he was as good as dead.

Having been on his end of things many times I can well image the sense of panic, did he press the wrong key? Was he trying to get a system for a high wake? Either way it was mildly entertaining but I'm not sure it was that much fun.

I much prefer having a proper fight, if it's 1v3 I leave but I'll always stay 1v1.

I think I'm not the world's most committed ganker, but was quite ruthless, which was a little bit of fun!

??? Got to say I always knew as being a slightly shameful dog after being embarrassed or similar, just as @Bigmaec used it.

Now, being like a dog with two s is all about being a happy fella!

Hmmm.... I'll reconsider the offensive comment then... :ROFLMAO:
(If running away the tail is between legs, somewhat embarrased then yes, it is drooping, 2 tails is a happy chappy...)
My 2, when chasing across the field out on a walk have their tails streaming behind them...

If I'm wanted in a system and get blown up, you pay off the fine and wanted status goes away, you go to prison ship, right?

And the happy dog hasn't got two tails, he's got two gentlemen appendages

Err...
The tail between its legs: Is the sign that a dog is down, afraid, feeling scared or guilty. It is an automatic response thing and is basically to protect the vulnerable bits down there.

A dog with two tails: Is something attributed to humans. "That they are like a dog with two tails". Happy dogs, cannot help raising and waging their tails. In some breads, this is more prominent than others. Poodles and Labradors are extreme examples of this trait and have absolutely no control over their tails and will wag them, manically at the slightest provocative. An Australian bread the 1st Poodle Lab cross, for the use as guide dogs for the blind, that do not moult. (Labs do a lot) He created very intelligent, passive and almost perfect guide dogs. Except they were a bit mental, in the tail wagging department and many had to have their 'damaged tails' removed, because they were bruising and hurting their tails by hitting objects so hard, during manic tail wagging sessions.

Most that are doing a 'Sir Robin' will do so with their tails, tucked up tight, between their legs.

Another evening playing in the CG, lots of pew pew, starting to really enjoy the Mamba now!

I only came unstuck a once against a Vette rocking phasing, I had him down to one shield ring after, I think, he'd finished his SCB's before I had to call it time.

Took out a few ships, several more waked out, other Mamba's are good fun but I'm convinced the LR beam is better than another Frag having put them to the test.

I've not met many very capable FDL pilots, I think if they get blown up by me, they aren't capable 🤣🤣🤣

The other conclusion I've come to is that for a shield build Prismatic coupled with a couple of guardian boosters is incredibly effective. In fact, for an FDL/ Mamba type ship I can't see why you'd choose bi-weaves.

I've been there, when you empty a distro or three full of laser and the other guys shield doesn't seem to flinch? (I've got 70% resistance and 4 pips, which helps). Then he opens up on you from point blank with frags and your shields disappear?

I'm not complaining, but in almost any scenario (excluding @Bigmaec annoying torpedo's 😭) this shield combo is really effective. To get the guardian boosters was why I left Colonia, I intended to come back straight away, but there is so much PvP at the CG's I'm enjoying it!

Cause vanilla shields are boring and my CMDR doesn't kowtow to any "power", so doesn't get any of their toys himself (no CMDR salvage is an everlasting disappointment). Tried them in that one beta way back when, and they've certainly been used against my CMDR, but I'll never have my CMDR pledge. Bad enough he's stuck in the Pilots' Federation (the moment I can dump that preferential insurance to have my CMDR appear as a filled in sensor contact, I will)!
