Tecnically scrap metal is just that, pieces of metallic junk. Premium scrap metal is casically te same but also there's a lot of valuable things yet for example a puece of junk that happens to be a piece of a control tower with all its proper hardware en good conditions mostly.... or the wiring of a battleship, that sort of things, possibilities are too great and varied. If you check the locations of premium fields most are due to the destruction of a JG or simmilar class of catastrophic event. E destroyed JG will let a lot of valuable material for sure... as is a gate for hiper-luminic travel.... you can imagine how expensive must be the components....

Naturally, ALG waited long time for that, and it should be added. I believe additional buypoint at The Ring would be harmless RP tool, having justification inRP and boosting inter-faction cooperation, I already can imagine sending comms to ALG and Junkers with scrap delivery requests and RPing with those two respective factions.

Witch are all other mining factions that can pirate in 2 houses and all non-house space while they in friendly terms with whole bunch of unlawfuls?

So that some of you think this change may not be good for your faction, it is good for junkers.
I play as junker since 4.84 it was my first character, don't get me wrong I love the junker gameplay and play it regularly..
Junker spectrum is a way bigger then simple scrap mining. Junkers have ton of other stuff available to them then simple mining compared to the regular mining factions.
Actually because of those facts it is exteremly unfair both to lawful mining factions and to unlawful in-lore mining factions like Hessians and Mollys to buff junker mining at the lawful mining faction level.
Anyway this community dies slowly because people around the place fail to use simple logic and fail too look a bit far from their nose at the big picture ignoring for a bit their own personal preferences.
Hi, I am not thinking about personal interests, The junker mining ships can only mine scrap effectively, that is what they are for.. Why is it unfair to allow junkers to mine scrap and make money? If that is the case, then remove scrap all together, or remove the junkers ability to mine scrap all together.

Think of it like this - take your everyday piece of thin steel sheet used for something basic like a car body piece = Scrap Metal
Now think of a Catalytic converter = Premium scrap. (if you don't know the difference, convertors usually also have richer alloy elements in them, which makes them more valuable and expensive).

I think you're missing the crux of the previous statement, which was this:
Quote:Actually because of those facts it is exteremly unfair both to lawful mining factions and to unlawful in-lore mining factions like Hessians and Mollys to buff junker mining at the lawful mining faction level.
Simply put, Junkers are way more versatile than simple mining factions...so to buff them HIGHER than mining factions seem very disadvantageous, or "unfair."
However...seeing as this buff is only temporary...maybe let them enjoy it for a bit, anyways.
I'll be planning on getting my Privateer out to "capitalize" on the boom.
Yes I understand, but this is a temporary commodity/mining boost, and I was disappointed that even a temporary boost for us gets complaints, which in turn will simply ensure that we never get another one.
