It can work both ways. Sometimes it saves you, sometimes it saves your opponent. I personally don't mind having them, but I wouldn't mind not having them either.

Oh lawdy oh lawhdy why is the server dying?
Its because of stuff like this...
Do you want the admins to just give you a couple billions in a silver platter so you wont have to struggle too?
geez.
"Oh no the tradelane is down because some xenos, rogues, or Ln hit the lane."
Maybe they were trying to disable it so you wont leave...i mean thats what i RP in my head when it happens.
Also, if they accidentally hit the lane while they're fighting another npc then that means you just entered a fighting zone and in RP, things happen.
That's what the Unlawfuls were trying to do...

In my opinion, Npc's should have CD's
It seems ridiculous when im an unlawful and the npc Lawful wont CD me...and vice versa...

CDs were not being discussed here. Missiles and mines were. Just sayin'.

But NPC piracy is part of the game, and NPCs being a challenge are part of the game. Id rather buff the NPCs, and reduce their number, so they are not annoying, but are actually a threat.

Yeh those sorts of things are the "annoyances" bits I wanted removed by reducing the no of NPCs, thats why I voted Other instead of no, cos the idea has good and bad points.

The lane disruptions you get when you're flying down the trade Lane are not caused by the NPC itself. We can still have a system where lanes can be down during Lane jump, and NPCs can't shoot down the lane when a player is pirating next to a trade lane ring.

Adds a bit of random luck. Don't remove them.

Actually, I'd like to see NPCs playing a more significant role in the game. They are supposed to add immersion, but what's the point of they can't provide anything to immersion but being there having no effects whatsover. I preferred the initial 4.87 NPCs who were really strong just for this fact - because you couldn't just go ahead and ignore them. It showed you that you're not supposed to be in a place.
Right now its just .. "meh, a swarm of navy npcs, let me just stand here ignoring them and remaining completely unharmed".

This way, they actually have a bit of an effect and can contribute to the environment with other things than just looks. So I vote for no.
