Last night I was on with AdmrialBrannigan and we were cruising for criminal scum around the security post when some tool in a 300 series decides he wants to fight. We started our 2v1 attack on the guy and he was annoying the crap out of us by jousting then zipping WAY away (like super far) before making another pass. We got bored fighting him so we jumped out which prompted him to start talking crap in the chat. Soon after, he runs into us while we are at cry-astro and vapes Brannigan while he was landing. So, naturally, I retaliate. We exchange less-than-friendly taunts over chat then agree to a 1v1 face-off. We were at it for a good 10 minutes. Since he didn't have a second guy on him, he changed tactics and we had an awesome fight. In the end we grew respect for each-others skill and quickly became amicable. When the security forces came in to attack him (he was wanted) I broke from my engagement with him and attacked the cop on his tail. I just thought it was cool to see how fighting a guy that you hate at first could turn out so positively. That just goes to show you, boys and girls, If you want to make friends; You just suckerpuch the asshole standing closest to you. Because you never know, he may end up being a cool guy.

Does anyone else have a similar story of how their opinion of another player changed so drastically after fighting them?

Reminds me of that time Zapp and Han were flying around the PU and some dude in a 300 decided he wanted to fight...
