The main goal of piracy is to have interactions, which should be fun (Don't consider the piracy which is done for profit, in which case, the pirate/or whoever just wants to earn some money and won't talk much, even if you offer to.)
And considering that fact, if you remain silent, the pirate has every right to blow you up, unless he made a demand, and you fulfilled it, after which, he wants an interactive session. Although the pirate cannot blow you up without making a demand, when you remain silent, he will surely look for other ways to make your journey bitter.
But first, when you are in no mood to talk, you shouldn't be logging in at all imo.
It's a RP server so you should communicate with the other players.
Of course you can choose not to, but that will usually end up in people shooting you.
If at a certain moment you're not in the mood for RP, avoid logging into the RP server for a while.
If you don't want to talk at all, then you shouldn't log in. As others said before, it's a roleplay server.
However, if your character does not want to talk to a person/group in particular, then ignoring them is part of your RP and is okay. Bear in mind that you have to face the inRP consequences when doing so (higher prices in piracy, unfriendly/hostile treatment from the groups you ignored and so on).
Regardless of what has been said in this forum, you can easily ignore anyone.
Other people do this and nobody sanctions them for not talking.
If they did, we'd probably lose half of our server population in an instant.
In short.
You have right to remain silent, as long as you follow the rules. This is what people, who have a poor grasp of English do.
Let the English and RP elitists moan as much as they want about what is frowned and what is not frowned upon. Play the game and have fun.

All you really got to do is tell the pirate that you're busy, and you'll pay their fee. Or, say you won't. Simple, yeah? Silent trading will get you killed.
