Same thing, then. If you think that a returning (maybe even roleplaying) transport harms server gameplay, try to get the admins to 1.2 it. *shrugs*
You can also leave them alone and look for more favorable encounters, maybe something that doesn't give easy blue messages.
I think that the rule is important because as explained earlier, transports lack the methods on how to deal with players that only mean harm to than. They're not able to withstand as much fire as a capital ship, and can't dodge the enemy shots even nearly as good as a snub. The only ways with them to properly deal with people is docking or talking. The latter is nearly impossible when the enemy (a.k.a. 90% of pirates you encounter) just want an easy blue message.
So there's only docking left. And now you want to punish that aswell?
