Mining

[Iconoclast]

The idea is to give it the rp that this "junk" left over from these explosions contains somethings of value and by taking them all the way to Bornholm we are receiving good money for these items. Another thing I do to make it rp to sell junk there is I mine it from regular scrap fields far away and "refine" it into something useful on the way there and then sell the "refined" product on Bornholm for much more than normal scrap is worth.

Now I know scrap is scrap no matter where you take it or collect it, but with the things I do above I think it really helps to bring rp to the fact that you get paid a lot for scrap at Bornholm. I could just mine near bornhom and sell there too, but like I say it is a bit much so I do what I can to still sell junk there, but bring rp into it. Some may call it crazy, but I love rp and will keep doing it.

I'm not against the idea of scrap metal having value. Personally I think the prices should be upped at most stations so as to reward junkers, but really anybody who collects it. Especially in Manhattan, that way new players don't have to do missions at first if they don't want to. The problem is that at Bornholm you can simply launch into space and gather millions of credits worth of metal and sell it without going anywhere. I'm personally unaware of an easier way to make money on disco. That said I'm new.

I think there should be a base where scrap is sold for a high price, but it should be in a system where its not as easily available. Bornholm just doesn't make any economic sense since scrap is more abundant there than anywhere else, yet it trades at the highest price. Its like if Macadamia nuts cost more in Hawaii than anywhere else.
