Trader - pirate interaction. What's your take on this?

[Elvin]

There are pirates who dont even know what RP is, and just think that pirating means fastest way to earn money.

It took me a week to recover from certain situation: Junker tag/IDed, Im taking 5000 Cardamine units from O-Alpha... I am stopped by Outcast(IFF, ID, indie) in gunboat saying "5miol"...After while of silence I asked "Can you repeat plese?" answer "5mil or die", I have just told "Is that a joke?" and get killed and cardamine destroyed.

What the hell is that? Im encountering things like that pretty often last days... Just what the hell is Outcast trying to tax cardi smuggler and destroying cardi dropped? And 5 millions? Isnt that little too much? And speaking, no,no saing "5m" or "5m or die" surely IS GREAT RP.

Sure, some ppls running away, or lawfulls incomming can make pirate to little skip long dialogue... altough those "Xmio r die" are real pain in the rear. Being pirate should be more about the fun, not about making 50millions per hour... And asking for more than 2millions, or even 5 millions, its more than cargo is worth or even someone cant afford to pay it... Ilready saw pirate asking lvl 41 player for 3 millions, what I think is rather bad.

And important thing, Im not flaming pirates, just some "cool" individuals... Accept that being pirate is more about enjoing it and making enough to keep you alive, not to make you lvl 90 in 2 days...
