You do realize... of course that pirating is the hardest way to make money. About six months ago, I took some data, before I left. About 5% of all "requests":Pfor 4 million got denied, and I was forced to kill the trader. The average tax takes 20 seconds, and the fight usually 1 min, depending.
Pirating/Taxing is all about roleplay. Trading, especially if the old Tau-37 route was there, is mounds easier. Generally safe, you probably make 10 times the amount you would from pirating.
I'm sick of people getting pissed at pirates, when the majority, or at least a few months ago, were RPers just trying to have tad of fun outside of the faction pissy fights. Honestly people, stop ****ting on pirates, and welcome the challenge. Should be an exciting change to the perpetual boredness that is trading.
Flyer out.
I'm not dissing on pirates Flyer, did you see me anywhere in there dissing on all pirates? I'm simply ranting on the fact that certain pirates tax and then don't protect the said player or give them any benifits for crossing through the system. Lets look up the definition of "tax" shall we?
"Websters Dictionary Wrote:1. a sum of money demanded by a government or party for its support or for specific facilities or services, levied upon incomes, property, sales, etc.
Please point out the part that states that said person can tax and not give anything back? Granted, a pirate can say "oh well I taxed them to keep them alive." Then don't call it a tax, say it like this.
"Two million credits or you die." not "Tax, two million." and then leave then they're getting attacked and say it's not there problem. While "taxing" is an interesting thing to come across, it's not when the "taxer" is being a retarded person who doesn't want to WORK for their money and instead just stealing cash off someone with out doing anything in return.
You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark. Roleplay is dead. Long live Powertraders and PvP I guess.
