Because repetition will somehow make your arguments more valid.

It's a ROLEPLAYING server. The emphasis is on ROLEPLAYING. If you can't find a proper, in-RP way to make your money, this place is not for you at all. 20 battleships with full deckouts doesn't mean good RP, and anyone who claims they do jumptrading for any reason but is a big fat liar.
I, myself, fly the Reluctant Strider proudly- It's a 3600 cargo ship, and guess what? I actually do fly places and RP while flying. Cause, you know, making money doesn't mean you magically get excluded from the RP requirements because you want to play another character and go get some blue messages. Horrifying thread.
It's painfully obvious that jumptrading was not intended as a result of involving jumpdrives into the game- So I agree the solutions would be either make the jumpdrives insanely hard to acquire, or perhaps modify them to be only mountable and usable by single vessels of cruiser class or above.
Yahweh Buddha Mohammed, 14 pages of this blatant parrot talk attacking jumptrading with Lythrilux' extremely invalid points? This thread is SO full of the people just cradling their encounters, blues, whatever will you do when you lose your precious chat pixels and to make the other guy lose his pixels.
It's a ROLEPLAYING server. The emphasis is on ROLEPLAYING. If you can't find a proper, in-RP way to make piracy, this place is not for you at all. 20 pro-piracy feature removal threads doesn't mean good RP, and anyone who claims they want to nerf Jump trading for any reason but is a big fat liar.
I, myself fly my trader proudly - It's a 4.3k cargo ship that often goes above plane, sometime hitchhikes a jumper and guess what, I actually do make credits while flying. Cause, you know, RP doesn't mean you magically get excluded from profits because you want everyone to be forced to face pirates and feed the pirate's other characters and their blue messages.
Horrifying thread.
It's painfully obvious that jumpdrives being useful was intended as a result of involving jumpdrives into the game- So I agree the solutions would be either make the jumpdrive insanely easy to acquire or perhaps modify it so it has better charge times and less fuel consumption.
