Just because YOU cannot stop a smuggler before he reaches the mooring dock does NOT mean its OORP. So what you're proposing is to make it easy for you to get a smuggler.
We pirates do not have such luxuries. When a trader gets "sprung" with his cargo and he makes it to a planet or base ... he docks immediately to avoid being pirated. Oh ... and yes ... they even dock on our bases ... like Yanagi.
As an LPI ... shouldn't you be actually roaming about LOOKING for the smugglers instead of camping the docking rings and mooring docks? We pirates get yelled at by you lawfuls for hanging around jumpholes as traders come and go. We are called campers ... but in reality its no different than you lawfuls camping the planets and bases waiting for smugglers.
I'm getting tired of your hypocrisy ... now quit camping and actual move out to look for the smugglers. You're like a bird waiting for mama bird to show up with your meal.
Geez people ... get real ... OORP because a smuggler tries to get by you? NPCs don't lock the planet the instant they see you have contraband. There's a good 30 seconds to 1 minute before they go hostile because you don't drop it. And that gives you plenty of time to dock and avoid them.
You guys just want everything handed to you on a silver platter. Pirates and mercs are limited to gunboats while you get to run around in battle cruisers. Now you wanna control the rings until you scan every traders/smuggler entering the system. Gestapo comes to mind. The name of your house factions is "Liberty" ... why don't you read what that word means ... cause liberty is hardly what we experience from your type. We get "papers please ... vat is ze purpose of your visit here? ... these papers are not in order ... come vis me."
