Sorry but it's a she, your argument is invalid [Image: emoticon-00126-nerd.gif]

11mil is still just dumb.

There are many pirates out there. It's not like they'll be the only ones who demand credits.

If they make such poor demands just let em shoot you, and at best also drop your cargo end shoot it before you pop.

I have nothing against "fair" pirates. but if they ask for waaaay to much they deserver no fair/good RP.

Haha, if I can convince a 5k trader to give me 5 mill its a great day. Even if I do its barely worth it because the angry trader tells lawful players in the next three systems to come and get me. I've got to see if I can find a trader that actually does something other than go oorp if I demand 11 mill.

Got away with nabbing 4k ore once. Didn't even have to shoot the guy or have a CD.

Ok, let me calculate something:
You have 150mil ship
Pirate aks for 50mil to let you live and keep ship.
inRP ship does not respawn! and there is no isnurance company that will pay 150mil to you because you refused to pay 50.

On the other hand even when just calculating your profit. If you have 5000 cargo full of ore, it can worth more then 50mil and requesting 50 mil is like requesting part of cargo.

So why would that be in any way sanctionable? Only sanctionable demand would be 2milrdai and nothing less

Uh, funny. I've never failed to get a ship back after having it blown up.

Have you?

Didn't think so.

ITT: More pirates claiming that traders should act as if ship destruction matters when they themselves don't care.

can be worse, once i pirated a kujira in a bactrian, i demanded 500 units of cargo (from 4700) and the trader said me was too much.... well guess what happened after 4 attempts,4! to make him give me the miserable 500 units...
