Piracy roleplaying

[jimmy Patterson]

I was pirated yesterday. I was in a 1k transport, with 1k units of neon and 400k in liquid assets. The pirate asked for 1 million credits. I told them I honestly didn't even have half of it. So they asked for all my cargo. I pointed out that I wouldn't even be able to afford another run, and would put me out of business. He didn't care.

I had no choice but to use deception and then make a break for it. If I had been destroyed, I would have been no worse off than complying.

In RP, my character was faced with being financially ruined, having to make tiny in-system runs until enough capital could be raised to actually make a real profitable run.

Sorry, that's just silly. And if it became common-place, commerce would grind to a halt. It almost did for my character.

traders are players too sure some lie like that but for the most part the above reasons why i stoped tradeing alltogeather


the sharks need to stop eating themselves into extinction

and people need to be more curtious and not greif the traders because the pirate may get ganked by 12344567869875 lawfuls if they dont
