Rules Clarification Thread

ADMIN/MOD ANSWER:
If a report is made against an unreasonable demand, it is judged within the context of the encounter.
We usually do not allow a player to demand more than the total sum of the cargo at the sellpoint. If you are flying a 5k transport and your cargo is worth 3k/u at the sellpoint, anything above 15 million is excessive.
Empty transports can be pirated as their death will result in them not able to return to the system. It is a valid interaction. We would like to, however, think that asking more than whatever million credits per thousand units of cargo space is frowned upon. If it is an empty 5ker - ask around 5 million. If it is an empty medium - around 3million.

Since this is the last admin answer on clarification i am taking it as a guideline.

- around 5 million for empty 5k'er - This is aprox. 1million per 1k of empty cargo, sounds okay.

Since so many traders are baffled at my requests regarding a guideline above, can someone from the admin team confirm or deny this.
Also it is then logical to assume that any 5k'er that is hauling cargo worth significantly lower then the 5 million, can be asked 5 million (basic PoB supply runs). Clarify this.

I have been demanding less then written above yet nobody seems to accept this. Thanks for the clarification.

That post is the standard I have been going off (for now), so yes it's correct. If this changes we'll be sure to make it known.
