Good for them...and will be there some official admin team statement about Barges and using them with Freelancer ID (in other words how is it with "Cannon exception") whis is disccused so much here after Fellow Hoodlum´s posts? All bargers will appreate it...

You put things so nicely. Are you secretly some kind of diplomat?
Oh for pete. Let the man fly his barge. If he wants to roleplay it as freelance, I don't see a problem with it. There's Freelancer-owned space stations, after all. Just say it was a derelict hulk that a bunch of FLs repressurized and took over. And since hostile npcs just love to ram into you and flip you around like your enormous ship is made of styrofoam and marshmello fluff, there's a lot of incentive to be as neutral to as many npcs as possible.
And in the time it takes you to make one barge trip, I could make 8 trips in a 5k transport. Therefore I don't really buy the powertrader argument... So lets all relaaaaaax :mellow:

According to my numbers CryoCubes are the most profitable... Scientists take up 2 cargo space but CryoCubes take up only one... And I won't be making a 'trade run' with scientists any time soon if ever, I just thought if I was going fly my barge from one place to another it may as well carry something I can cover some expenses with, (like 5-6 hours of flying it)... I wasn't even buying them at a decent price...

Plus, flying in a Barge is close to rule-bending by itself anyways, anything less than pristine role playing can get you a boot to the head.
Well if you met me I was probably AFK for a while, as it is VERY boring now moving a barge around, you literally have to set 'go-to' and go watch a film waiting for it to get there... Before the speed nerf you had to constantly watch for being bumped, as the faster you travel in a barge the wider your turning circle is, you could end up 50k away from your 'go-to' point flying in circles if you hit an NPC along the way...
