You know, this is why I'm giving up on this community.
Transports, including liners, shouldn't be able to fly around without escorts, which would increase the RP, pirates would need to have large groups to even thinking of taking on a liner and it's escorts.
After all, why do you think theres always orbital spa and cruise starflyers/hawks flying aroudn them?
However, all you guys want is a cheap, agile capship. All your doing is throwing out excuses to keep weapons they have no need for.
