' Wrote:Because traders are supposed to make money, and telling the pirate to kill you does the exact opposite. A trading company will make more money if the trader gives up a few million that it will if the trader gives up his entire ship, his crew, his cargo, and his life.
That may be the way it seems to you, but for others it's different. That's the only point I'm trying to raise here. Everyone has a different perspective. There's no right or wrong (except when the rules get concerned), so why does everyone act like there is one?
' Wrote:Abusing game mechanics for "roleplay" is just as bad. You are not allowed to say "just kill me."
Point me to the rule that says traders can't just ask the pirate to destroy the ship? Everyday, each and every one of us abuses game mechanics then, by hitting the respawn button. Trader, pirate or other alike, because in roleplay we should just delete that character and start fresh each and every time.
