Well, that is a mistake you make once.

Let's not add another way to pull cash out of thin air, shall we? If you don't like trading, but want to earn a fortune nevertheless, go hunt some bounties, pirate, trade information, be creative, there are a lot of other ways to get rich. Don't be a lazy jerk.

Myself, I spend around 5 months searching for an escort job in Liberty. In Liberty. With no avail. Bounty Hunting? Pirates log off as as soon as they see name of my character on the list - or targets are levels above skill I can offer. Piracy? I've witnessed dozen times how traders went stilent, not reacting to my hails, just impulsing towards the base/gate/TL - becoming the most disappointing blues ever.

Your idea still propagates idling in space, which I do not list among activities I would reward with credits. Or anything at all.

I swear, people seem to get more entitled by the day.
Oh, you do not like making money in Freelancer?
I suppose you are the same kind of person who cba doing quests in WoW or something.
We have credits as our only way of progression. You can start complaining how trading does not match up to your desires once you propose a different type of progression system.

Trading is not only one of the most basic ways to earn credits, it's also one of the basic activities our activity cycles start at. Traders are the bottom of the food chain, if they are no more, nor will there be the rest, pirates, police, revolutionaries, etc. I firmly believe it is just reasonable to propagate such activity instead of just idling in space.

I'm going to ask for closing this thread, because I simply feel insulted by accusations I'm lazy. I'm not. If it was the case, I'd leave Discovery long ago or won't even bother helping 343 going into officialdom.
RE: [FL Hook] Proposal: player activity rewarded with credits. - Thyrzul - 12-08-2015
Wow, so you ask for closing the thread not because you realized how wrong your idea is, but because you felt offended by an insult I hastily dropped but did not kept on repeating after you countered it? If it helps, sorry, you are not lazy, but your idea is still bad in my opinion.
RE: [FL Hook] Proposal: player activity rewarded with credits. - The Savage - 12-08-2015
I simply fail to see how one is sane enough to wait 6 hours for money one'd earn in 35 minutes, yet instead of normal discussion "please, we can't do X because Y", we end up in situation "your idea is dumb and you are idiot". It's not encouraging, quite the opposite.
Also, it's not because of you, @Thyrzul.
As for the thread, I'd really like to see Hidamari's proposal, but if people are not quite interested into hiring escorts already - why should we expect them to share money anyway?
