If you're ever in Rheinland again, look for for BDM|LV-Hovarpnir, .:j:.Dis, and Centenial.Pigeon. They're my traders, and I generally fly when the server is empty. Hit me up, I'll be more than happy to rp/get shot!
Wonder when people (-> pirates) realize that always going "several million credits / drop all cargo or die" as well as the metagaming "log pirates along the route to pirate mutiple times in a row" has driven away a lot of the traders over time...
Really don't know what people expect when they behave like that all the time. Traders aren't cattle, at some point they get bored of always ending up in the same kind of encounter, with little of what the server is about (-> RP) actually happening to them. I do understand that silent traders suck, but still, whenever I met them I tried to give them more than one chance to interact with me. Then again, I rarely blew people up as a pirate anyway...hm...not like I did much pirating.
And for finding traders ... how about you search a little harder? Traders have to find their routes as well, you know.

There are two sides of the coin - there's an unbelievable amount of metagaming on the part of the traders, too - and it's gotten worse because many traders even just log when there's a ship in the next system that they're headed to, regardless of whether or not they know if it's a pirate.

You seem very interesting person. I will surely remember those names. Expect me in Rheinland some times.
