Quote:"Why would any trader fly anything but Zoner colours?" And here's my answer: I have no bloody idea. I've pondered that question myself ever since Ad Infinitum fell through and I switched over to Zonerdom. Zoners can do anything that a regular Trader ID can do, plus more,
The reason I don't is because trading can be quite dull. A Zoner ID makes it even more so. An ID like a Trader ID livens up the otherwise boring trade hauls. I can sometimes lose track of my money progress having so much fun dodging pirates. I think this is more in the spirit of fun RP. It's possible to view a Zoner ID as a sort of cop-out to get around confrontational RP. This is not my view because I have been around long enough to know that Zoner pilots can be very good. This perception, nonetheless, can pop up. The biggest trasnports make so much anyway that you get to your goal in spite of any added losses and have more fun in the process.
Making money un-molested is fine and the Zoners I've met on the server are all seem pretty cool but I get more of a sense of accomplishment if I get chased trying to get it through.
