Drop 200% of your cargo!

[Curios]

I feel like I have to reply here!
I was robbed of 10 mil by 3 Lane Hacker pilots while going from Planet Junyo->New Tokyo Jump Gate with helium in cargo
-"Look at it as a investment, you pay 10 mil now and we leave you alone for the next 24 h"

Later that evening while going to New Tokyo from Tau-23:
-"Oh look a Stork transport with 5k niobium on it. We got a VHF and a Outcast gunboat, lets rob it off 10 mil!" (lowered the robing to 8mil with a "cool" conversation)

Not to mention that I was pissed after that.
But well, I was unlucky(what a coincidence) to meet 3 pirates and 2 pirates with a gunboat demanding 10 mil each group.

Now let's see who's gonna reply to me *siting in front of screen and waiting*

By the way when I was working as escort to USI transport we successfully avoided those 3 pirates sitting in that very place at the last weekend. Morale - hire escort, escort costs much less - I'm usually going for 50-100k for 1 system we pass + bonuses from employer if he sees my work is successful.

2) It depends on the situation and as always will be considered on a case by case basis. A good guideline is no more than 1/3 the value of the cargo. Keep in mind:

0.0 Be excellent to one another. Consider the people around you. Keep fair play in mind. It's a game and nothing is gained, or lost, save the experience. Credits can be re-earned. Ammunition replenished. If you become infuriated step away. If you make a mistake apologize. If you wish to remain in system after you die, or after someone has moved away, simply ask.

and

1.2 Server administrators will impose sanctions on players for violating server rules and for any actions that harm server gameplay.

Transports OP... Right.
- Battletransies and 5K transies are allergic to Novas. No CM means unless they turn a lot, the Nova is a guaranteed hit, and it's range is way outside of the transport guns.
- Small transies don't have the punching power to withstand a SNAC barrage. 'Though granted, you may need to tagteam if the transie has a smaller shield that rebuilds faster.

Yea, you can't easily take them out with a fighter, but bomber versus transport - provided you have the right arament - is a no contest. Novas will, on repeated hits, take out equipment too.

I disagree, many times on many different transports I've shot novas only to see them do little to no damage on the ships Hull. SNACs are better for hitting transports st least.

Global Moderator Pavel, check out the currently effective rules and find the 0.0 Rule there.

Fact that 0.0 was removed doesn't mean unwritten "don't be male genital part to others" rule isn't enforced. That'd be against spirit of the rules and atmosphere we want to create on that server.

If you're saying it's that way doesn't change the fact that I do sense it's being flipped up backwards in fact.

Then that's the problem on your side.

Can't just be me, other people have been encountering the same problem.
Is it lag or something? Or just poor game mechanics?

Poor skills.

I can show you proefficient usage of Bomber, if you bring transport into Conn.
