I've re-read the thread, not seeing any of these descriptions...

I'm seeing statements. Valid statements, that Scum didn't exist (and really shouldn't exist) and therefore isn't stealing.

But I'm only seeing that statement from you.

Anyone else find it odd that one ship from each of the first 4 waves was ‘borrowed’ for Scum? It’s almost like Scum WAS there all along, hiding in plain sight.

also still wondering why the HWK was chosen as the first EU ship to be introduced, especially when the YT-2400 was established as canon

Ha...no I never did. Kinda cool, actually. Like you said, Scum in plain sight.

Agreed also that HWK was an interesting 1st choice. I'm not sure I really knew about that ship ere XWM.

Hey man, people like Dark Forces.

That was only because the Scum faction didn't exist at the time. I prefer to think of it as "Imperials pre-emptively got a Scum ship" than vice versa.

No, others made statements that scum didn't exist when the Firespray was introduced. The point made inside the parenthesis was my own. Still not finding the earlier descriptions of Imperial theft though.

I was paying more attention to the assertion in the parentheses, it being a more opinion based topic.
