Less than an hour ago, a Lane Hacker Guard Phate raided my transport mumbling something about my boron shipment. Needless to say, we have different views on the ways of the world. You have high ethics on who is your enemy and who is not, we have high ethics on how to treat outsiders. I'm quite surprised you choose to tax a Junker in your desperation. You should be aware, that hostility towards a single Junker means hostility towards all Junkers.
Now, negotiations are born to be made. Sometimes there are more profits, and sometimes less. If a good excuse and rationale is given, tax may be carried. What really ticks me off, though, is that Phate deliberately shot off three class 4 transport turrets from me, which I now need to go replace at Omicron Delta, causing a detour during which I'm losing some 10-20 million credits in profit.
I'm sure you find all this quite an amusing idea. I currently find using all possible assets, contacts and leverage to severely diminish and wither down your cardamine shipments an amusing idea.
Our Junker bases are open for a multitude of different factions due to our extended hospitality, which includes us keeping our distance from various pirate factions' activities and let everyone profit the best way they know. We are the go-between, negotiators, clerks and ambassadors. Might I remind you, this said hospitality is not limitless to those who blatantly abuse it.
You might wonder, why the message is visible and still you can't discover how I hacked the system. Let's just say, it is nice to have hacker friends leaving backdoors open for their Junker friends. Because friends do that to eachother instead of pissing them off.
