Vigilante ID

[Awesome Boats]

Problem with that is that we'd need to rely on player honesty to sell those things at those bases. Past experience tells us not to rely on players in that way.

If you'd rather be a merc, then be a merc. Vigilante has one advantage over mercs: You don't need an employer or standing bounty in order to attack your targets.

Sure you can just say "take other ID instead then".

But that pretty much eliminates any reason to have anything close to a vigilante in the first place. Why not just take the entire ID out with that thinking? That'd be retarded, vigilante IDs still offer a fair amount of roleplay that people can get out of it (if they'd use the ID rules of 4.85 atleast) since barely anyone ever used them.

Yes, player honesty is one thing. However, keep in mind that there were barely any people using a vigilante ID in 4.85, so if there'd be any vigilantes trying to gain a profit out of selling slaves instead of 'letting them free' on a freeport (for 0 credits) or doing anything like that, it would play a WAY smaller role than...for example, having a liberty capital ship pull a complete lolwut. And having capships, official or not, pull total lolwut moments happened way more (and will continue to happen) often than vigilantes doing that. Right? Right.
