I just had my first real pvp encounters today and agree that the npc's were quite anoying but at the same time the bounty hunter npc's were helpful in getting me a good rep with the rogues when I first started my character.Also they do make space less lonely.
Solution:Go back to original freelancer config for npc's to where they don't spawn in battles and have less encounters.
