Which is why I love doing it and hope more people would RP with nomads and on Nomads.
Glorifying cringe is the mark of a furry. Also, if you want heavy RP, go to Vagrants. They're down to do the whole "stop and chat and make friends with mortal enemies". K'hara is meant to be closer to the original nomads from vanilla, including all out warfare in an attempt to exterminate an entire species. Like humans do to them. Huge surprise.

People expect K'hara to be like vagrants. Playful harmless little squid buddies who wouldn't hurt a fly, and you can keep as pets. People expect to never lose no matter where they are, and what they are doing. Flying a transport apparently doesn't mean "I am the softest target in the whole game, everyone will be gunning for me because this is a ruthless, natural space" to them. It means "I am protected by oorp law and everything is candy fluff and unicorns because I am untouchable". There is no recognition that as a transport, you trade defensibility for money. You become the prey for the long term payout.
I'll do something about my superiority complex when I cease to be superior.
"Whatever happened to catchin' a good old-fashioned passionate ass-whoopin and gettin' your shoes, coat, and your hat tooken?"
You are flying a transport filled with valuable and dangerous cargo, in wild space, in a war zone.
Your character belongs to a group of humans notorious for trading in stolen alien artifacts.
You then see these aliens appearing on your radar, doing anything else other than running as far away from Sigma 17 as possible is an invitation to be attacked, or do you expect the Nomads to escort you perhaps?
Where is YOUR escort? Where are your scouts? You could've hired another player to fly ahead of you and warn you of any threats that may be waiting for you, or if you know that the Nomads are camping the place, you could gather a group, and send them to clear the Nomads out before you make your delivery.
You want to fly by yourself, make some quick cash with minimum effort? Then assume the risks.
EDIT: You are also not the only one supplying the Corsairs. You can talk to the other people who are doing the same thing as you, you know? Coordinate, form a convoy, you'll be a lot harder to kill then, and frankly, it's more fun that way.
Well event is over soon
And give full credit to K'Hara that came later actually did RP, chose between zoner transports and corsairs - One of event commodity was VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS - a zoner hauling that should hardly be a priority for nomads.
Too bad it was at the finish line of the event where everyone was exhausted, and tilted by the previous K'Hara losing so many points in an unrelated tied event - so they just got deleted in the dirtiest ways possible so Sairs could focus on finishing the event.
I do think if you join an official faction, you should do more than /1 /2 and be held to a higher standard - otherwise you are just an indie with extended Zoi and cloak. And what's the point in that. Here's to hoping people will reciprocate and RP back at nomads, vagrants and especially Wild. And nomads will keep trying.

Are you really, Lemon?
I was there today, meet 3 traders, and what we got:
1. Afk ignoring my rp
2. Afk fly and dock with ignoring rp
3. Saw my rp "to who you talking?" and docked.
Same situation was a few days ago... 3/3 avoiding RP.
All docked, then everyone relog to combat ships and gang me.
So here the point:
1. Nomads bad when they use /1 /2 and engage, lets cry about this on forum yes.
2. Ignore nomads, you need more profit in your powertrading, do not waste your time on rp.
So please stop ***** about nomads. 9/10 of you who hauled this commodities, just want make more credits, without RP interactions, and want to cry on forum about "aaaa they /1 /2 and kill us, and this is OF members".
You wont be dead? Please play RP on RP Server.
It always better to waste 15 minutes for even bad RP, than die and wait one hour/30 minutes respawn.
Domino you have to realize we faced with this every day

[28.09.2020 14:15:40] Death: Alonzo_Nibali was put out of action by K'Hara|Ishazha (Missile/Torpedo).
Like I said - kudos for trying and RPing, but you did come at the last day of the event after some 20++ transports got /1/2 by that guy after which he kept running to avoid combat.
When you see this over and over you obviously stop talking to him and just do whatever you can to get rid of him - and you got caught up in that. On a last day of a thrilling event that cost one faction well over some 20 billion they gave to the community.
And it is an official event with RP consequences, people are trying to win and care about points a lot so the tensions are high.
I could show you the logs, but we did want to give a fair fight to the last two K'hara that came after we realized they are normal players. They didn't trust us and just abandoned an indie there, which is understandable.
But they were how nomads should be. Not that /1/2/3 guy that I suspect played for one of the other sides as well.
So this is not a reason to blame whole faction, becouse one of them using /1/2 engage. There is many ways how to solve it: Feedback threads, Discords, Contact HC on forum if you can't join Discord. But there is no reasons to saying that "all K'Hara bad, and we expected more".
I also made today a rage Feedback to BFC| and after this I saw how many sanctions they got today, I deleted my feedback and just contacted Leader with my problem, we talked a bit and all, problem solved. Why this is so hard to others?
All of you also were able to contact K'Hara leader and talk about what happened or happening every day/hour, but some of yours choices to blame whole faction.
I like how this thread is still a hotspot for trader tears. I'll slap my two cents.
You are a trader. You want to make money easy without effort. You trade in The Omicrons during a very fancy event that so happens to include a few systems that are also Nomad Turf such as Omicron Gamma and Theta. Nomad players will do their job of antagonists and make you cry as they blast you and your cargo. Nomads exist to make the omicrons dangerous.
Some Nomads want to RP, drag you to their Light, make you obey them. That is their RP. You can always expect at least 3/5 people within K'Hara to actually desire RP. What do some powertraders do? Rush the nearest station and ignore any RP, then make a thread later and complain, shedding tears as if someone hurt them irl. I understand that traders don't want to die. Nobody wants to. But if you really want to complain, pick something that is a real problem, and not a Nomad shooting your trader down by /1 /2 /3 because you either: 1) Decided it is best for you to rush to the nearest station and not let someone type in chat their RP; 2) You think it's a bright idea to open fire without RP, or just mute them because they're doing something to make you feel adrenaline rushing through your veins.
In short. You're in the Omicrons. Most dangerous part of Sirius. Expect trouble. Always expect more trouble, and even more trouble. If you can't stand the Nomads, then get the hell out of their turf.
This rant might make me sound like an arsehole, but I'm fed up with how stupid this thread is. You filled 4 pages of "hurr durr Nomad shot me in short RP waaaaaah" and "but u trader and we mad aliens". Stop it, get some help.

I wanted to deal with it in-game with using equally dirty tactics he was using and you got caught in without taking it oorp as no rules were broken or anything.
Our beef was with the one (maybe two) guys on K'Hara ID doing that - it just happened to be the only K'Hara the OP ever got to see, and well that's how this thread got started
