Quote:(...) Any suggestions on what the upper limits should be in that respect? Remember to take into account the cargo and the ship size.
Here comes, as I mentioned above, problem with diversity of the players. Some of the players have a lot of characters and cash on them, while there are players who log like twice a week with barely two characters on their account. For some people, fine of 100 million credits is just pocket money, while poorer players would rather prefer to not to pay and make another character for 1/5 of that money (if we are talking about freighters up to small transports).
HOWEVER, the problem I pointed out is more about FR5ing players who were caught a lot of time on smuggling, despite the fact they paid their fines all the time. Also, not only this, but also fear about being FR5-ed kills smuggler RP - this make players afraid to roleplaying smuggler.
Aside of the recent new route, I haven't seen any smuggler recently.
