Whos the Biggest and Baddest Transporter? - blubba - 09-20-2009
The old diamond-niobium run... Brings a tear to the eye. That was sack-loads before everyone jumped on it. Then I used to race Kuraine from somewhere up north to Liberty trying different routes. Sackloads more....
Those were the good old days :ylove:
Now I just plod around doing whichever run I fancy that looks interesting. Something around the $20-$25 million per hour for a 4k cargo ship.
And for those who were wondering, I think he won all the races. Maybe there was one....but I think not sadly.

Taken me my entire time here to make the 1.75 billion credits I have (about a year now I think). Dunno how you guys are getting so much so fast. Although with the pilgrim liner I should be able to get some more when there is nobody interested with RPing with a researcher.

Anyone here in .83, that little Harris bug dosen't count. You know which one I mean! :D
I hardly ever trade, as it's boring and the largest ship I have is my Buccaneer Percheron. All newbies note this, RPing in fighters and transports is way more fun than getting a battleship and finding out its dead meat to any pair of half-decent bomber pilots.

I make bout 100 mil each day if I only trade. I play only 3 hours a day

I personally reach the 20 mil. in 40 minutes what is about 0,5 mio. per minute.
I use an 5 k Adv. Train.
But i am trading only 1 or max. 2 hours a day. Becomes boring when doing it too long.
I compared mining vs. trading and came to my result that trading is more effecient when you compare it with a 5 k Trader. When you compare mining with a 3 k Trader, mining is more effective.
I've used Gran Canaria as Mining location.
But back to the topic:
My Favorite is the adv. train because good handling in docking sequences and the nearly unbreakable Cruise Speed.
I personally dislike Trading ships that can be stopped by npc's because the time loss means loss in profit.
King regards

I think that I am the winner here.
I am beyond.the.jumphole
People can vouch for the time I spend on it.

If you want to see the fastest trading ever done, go speak to violette, she got an entire fleet, including a cap 6 liberty carrier and various cruisers plus 500 mil spare in just about a couple of weeks, so reaven, sadly you dont win.
As for me, the most trading i have ever done was when i was making 100 mil a day in my zoner whale (yes cardi-slaves, i admit it) for my battleship.
That was boring in the extreme though, and i can understand people not wanting to trade at all, there is one remedy to that though; Join a trading corporation (preferably Bowex)!
Ive made about 400 mil in a couple of weeks and it feels like i did no actual trading, and thats why i sold my zoner whale, because indy trading is quite frankly, crap, in comparisson with corp trading.

Anybody remember the diamonds-niobium run?:lol:
I made most of my billions off that.
Most was 500-600 million in one day. (I traded straight. Needless to say, I did not log on for a week+ after that.)

I think I will challenge you.

I am the biggest baddest transporter now I got my slave liner!
Seriously though I can make about 100mil a day in that thing. (I'm a researcher so that limits what I can trade).
EDIT: Just realized I've already posted here >.>
