I've been thinking how to solve the ever-annoying problem of ooRP powertrading lolwuts non-paying but saying kill me and not playing the role properly.

The idea is a permaban on death for transports, there would be no more traders just waiting for respawn instead of playing along.

So let me know guys what do you think about it. I think it could work and benefit greatly to roleplay.

"2milrdai. no? I pew u nao"

That and the fact that traders are the lifeblood of Disco.

That said I don't like powertraders, but attacking the group for the actions of the few is not the proper way to go about it.

I agree. And maybe one or two other sick guys like me. The rest... well, prepare to be bashed into the ground Dod.

EDIT: By 'permaban' you mean ship deleting right? By the way, you are biased. Let it happen regardless of ship type.

On death..problem. For instance, Bowex gets blown up by reavers for kiggles and profit, no chance for us to opt out.

Sometimes, we run. its a game..and we die. Its a game, we can die.

There's no way to actually tell if they're being oorp without having a person being there.

Eh, not too fond of this idea.

I think I can see where your coming from. But maybe a perm ban is a little harsh though.

I mean I know its pretty easy to avoid most pirates. I've encountered pirates only a few times on the many hours logged on my transport and safely got away each time. Because I am smart enough to watch ahead and not disapear off and do something else.

Maybe a day ban at most. Since that alone is quite a heavy hit to the wallet for your power traders. But doesn't knock the players who actually RP transports out forever.

Or go with the "space is dangerous" rules suggestion, where ship destruction causes you to be unable to use the ship for 2 hours afterwards.
