You give slaves minimal to survive and work, and with maximizing profit you import more food. Or send those who were previously working those jobs to smuggle/work on our ships/pirate.
Or you use robots to do the digging because they are actually cheaper in terms of the one resource you have a very limited amount of ie food, which really does then allow you to maximise your profits.
The problem with this entire argument is that everyone can come up with spurious reasons to do stuff, which makes it all a bit pointless doesn't it?
You are absolutely right, I forgot that we discovered robots on primus (gammu wherever).
Still there is this point. "Soon, Etna Base became a prominent destination for prisoners, captured pilots, and even civilians kidnapped and sold into slavery. "
So why not include this for sake of corsair smuggler players ? Import slaves, export human organs, I think we can both agree on that one.
Also, while people could come up with reasons to do stuff, this whole thread as pointed in first post was here to discuss it, unfortunately we as players often resort in fights and flaming. I think we gave good arguments for this to be implemented, and while opposite side had some good arguments, I think we can both see from this Etna info that Corsair are not that opposed to slavery.
And I would love to see more routes and smuggling activity from Corsair side, and adding something like this could just be the thing we need.
