Good Trade Routes?

[looqas]

You do realize that it doesn't matter how many people do trade routes you are still going to get money from it. The funny thing about trading is that there is no "economy" so you always make the same amount of money which is GOOD. Let's keep it that way. There is no reason to be elitist about this you all make the same amount of money.

That's true. But it's kinda spoiling the fun. I'm well aware of the all the systems and jump holes and commodity prices thanks to that little handy program. I only use shortcutting jump holes and routes I have found or someone has shown me in game to keep consistent with my RP. And now I use it to plan a bit of my trade routes in my mapped space. The fun part is have RP reasons to haul the load while making decent money. I admit making the most profitable ones most of the time, but like the Prisoners from Shetland to Vierland is just nice break doing something different.

So for a Bretonian based bowex firm very good and profitable routes are taking Beryllium from Cambridge to New Berlin and bringing Eng Comps back. That's about as monotonous and fast money as one can get doing that route.

Or Boron from NY to Leeds system. But every other Joe knows about these. And it's even very easy to obtain info from other traders (and it's even good RP) by hailing them and having an RP chat or joining company with them. I suggest doing that since it's fun AND profitable! :laugh:
